Superior fish and rice basket
Joy S.

After our cruise around the Apostle Islands, we were in the mood for some fish! This little place on the water had a very limited menu, but it fit the bill for us. Four of us shared the two baskets they offered. Both were delicious. They also have a bar for beverages. We sat out by the water and it was relaxing and enjoyable.

I wish I realized how neat this place was sooner in our trip. I didn't really discover it until our last night, and we'd just done a fish fry the night before... I simply wasn't in the mood for another one. Still, it was such a cool spot directly on Lake Superior so I had to go and at least visit. They were having live music so my pup and I walked over for a beer and to listen to the jams. I don't know how they have anywhere near enough seating in the big tourist season, but we went early enough (both time and date) where we got a table further back from the stage and water. Near the stage the ground is smaller rocks, so I didn't think the pup would be super comfy on it. Also, the music was SO LOUD you'd have to scream just to hear someone next to you. So, we sat at the picnic tables further back and enjoyed our time. I could see their boats from fishing along the pier and smell the amazing scents of the fish fry. I was so sad to not be in the mood for a fish fry, but enjoyed everything else about this place. This is the FIRST place I'm heading the next time I'm back in Bayfield.

Amazing fish shop! The fish is fresh caught every morning; usually around 800lbs. The breading is fantastic & make sure to try the jalapeño tartar sauce! Everything is served outside on their lovely waterfront patio. We went for lunch and service was quick. The menu is small and easy to choose from, they also have beers. Dogs are welcome, just try to keep them separated so everyone is happy.

This is a cool little shack that has outdoor seating only with a nice pergola with tables right on the lake. They only serve fresh fried white fish with fries, but it was great. They fry it right in front of you and they have cold beer and cocktails to go along with it. It was a beautiful day to sit by lake and have a great lunch.

Went here as they opened for lunch on a Sunday since the weather was perfect to be sitting on the dock. We ordered at the counter, and the turnaround was less than 5 minutes to get the food. We loved the condiments table with ketchup, lemon juice, malt vinegar, tartar sauce, and jalapeno tartar sauce. The jalapeno tartar sauce was standout, and more places should have it. Just a little kick to go with the fish. The fish breading was nice and crisp and not greasy in the least. There was also still a good amount of juice in the fish. The fries were also nice and crisp and perfectly salted. We were all very impressed with the food. They exceeded expectations! Also, nothing can compare to the view!

The fish is phenomenal, not too thick on the breading, perfectly fried, great tartar sauce, decent fries, nice area to eat and enjoy the views, plus they had live music while we were here and that added to the atmosphere. Service was also good.

Great local band, Strange Crew

Off the boat fresh fish done perfectly. Wife had black whitefish on rice and I had fish and chips. Beautiful location on the end of the dock. They had a good band playing on Memorial Day Monday. service was quick and friendly. Could have used a few more fries. Jalapeño tater sauce was very good. Nice newer experience in Bayfield.

Tasty lunch. They only have deep fried fish, with French fries and a side of Cole slaw. It was quiet when we went, but it gets busy at night. Summer is ending so it will probably get quieter.

We got of fish of course.. it's the only thing on their menu and it's done right! Cooked perfectly and the jalapeno tartar sauce was an amazing touch! Sitting dockside was magical too..loved all of it!

Looking from waters edge in.

Rocking bands, amazing cherry cider, and fresh fish make this a must visit. We spent three hours here and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I came here based on a suggestion for fish fry. The service was prompt and friendly, they were kind…read moreto my dog, and the Old Fashioneds were pretty yummy. I came here for a fish fry just after Memorial Day and the outdoor seating weather was perfect for my pup. The patio overlooks Lake Superior, with a few buildings across the street blocking a bit of the view. It's a nice downtown spot so there are plenty of people out and about walking by the patio. I typically prefer a traditional Old Fashioned, but when in super northern Wisconsin, do as they do. I got a Wisconsin Old Fashioned and it was great. I even ordered a second one! The veggie dumpling soup was beyond my expectations -- I would have just eaten a bunch of bowls of that all night if I hadn't been set on fish fry. I got the Lake Superior Whitefish fry (Lake Superior was right across the street, how could I not?), which was just ok. The sides were great - french fries and green beans are a Wisconsin match made in heaven. The fish was alright, a bit fishier than I'm used to but that just might be a Lake Superior whitefish thing? Still, I found about 6 bones in the fish fry and I've never had that issue at a restaurant fish fry before. I usually give a few bites to my dog but was nervous on this one. So, overall a great experience and a fun place to stop by. I'd recommend checking them out.

We stopped by for a quick lunch on our first day in Bayfield and we're so glad we did! First and…read moreforemost, the service was absolutely incredible. I wish I remembered the name of our server because she was so attentive while practically running the front of house by herself, I wish I could give her a specific shout out. The restaurant itself is a classic small town tavern with the dark wood bar, comfy booths, and a gorgeous painted tin ceiling. The food was also pretty good - the cheese curds are a MUST get. The rest of the food was slightly too salty and the fish was just a tad dry but the tartar sauce and coleslaw were both to die for and the fries were fantastic. Overall we enjoyed our time here and would definitely go back.
