My much better half was happy when we passed this chicken and fish place on Capitol.... We were on…read moreour way to Church's ( still love them ). We turned around and turned into the scarce parking lot. There are no more than ten spaces available on the otherwise corner lot. The drive-thru is a single lane that also serves as the restaurant's exit. There is a second exit on 26th Street, which would be the "side" entrance and exit. Problematic I'm sure when business picks up on nights and weekend evenings. We went inside and found an employee cleaning the space below the counter where they kept the individual soda cans available for sale with "combo" meals. We decided to order when my "much better half" was satisfied she could eat from the kitchen where cleanliness passed with flying colors. She ordered the three piece fried jack salmon, I ordered the three piece catfish filet... about $21 for both meals. They were boxed in a styrofoam container, both meals had a rubber band securing the container and placed in a plastic bag. It was 15 to 20 minutes drive to home..... Here we go! We arrived home and got ready for dinner. We sat down for the "moment of truth". Most of these places' main entrées are reasonably warm but the fries are like warm or cooling.... Not Hook's.....fries were HOT... Catfish was POW!!! Excellent!!! Hot. The fish was still hot to the touch, you bit into the filet and had to stop because the steam from it almost burned you! Eventually, we got to eat. It was excellent. The food is right on. This is what all people ask for, you get it here at Hook's. Well done! The store would get five stars if it weren't for the mediocre location which could put place patron's security in doubt. There is no seating inside except to wait for your food. People generally are very respectful and nice. The place is well lighted. The solid reputation for the quality of food served is true and exact. Food is excellent. Their quality has to be the only reason this place is open. Please check them out. They are great. The place may not be great looking, But they are CLEAN.... the SERVICE is EXCELLENT.... and the food is DELICIOUS!!! I am a very picky person, I was pleasantly surprised! ......you will be also. Just be patient with them. Everything is made to order. So there is a bit of a wait. Especially during the evening and weekend nights. Well done, Hook's.... WELL DONE!!

However, the continuous construction (I feel like it's been since 2012??!!) is always extremely discouraging and parking is like the survival of the fittest. The pub itself has a similar vibe to Three Lions. I ADORE the Union Jack painted on the ceiling and red English phone booth. It is reminiscent of a stereotypical "English" pub (and yes, I have been to many - mostly outside of London - in the past 3 years). There was only one employee working at my time of visit, and maybe 10-15 other patrons. I ordered the Ruben rolls, which were great but left in the fryer 2 mins too long. Sadly, they did not have any of the ciders or beers I longed for.... which is understandable these days due to tariffs. I definitely plan on going back to see what the vibe is like during World Cup matches.

The food is hot, fresh, and perfectly cooked--the chicken is crispy but not fried too hard, and the fries are just right.

Staff is great, and service is Awesome. Highly recommend!

We had heard (and read) about this place and it is not far from our house. A few attempts were made to visit previously but life got in the way. We finally made it on their first day of the season this year and it met expectations. All the volunteers running around offering drinks and picking up your ticket to come back and serve hot and fresh fish and fries. The fish was perfectly cooked as were the fries. The place was beautifully exactly as I expected it. A school cafeteria. The only criticisms are as follows: The batter needed a little more salt. The ranch dressing was a bit bland. There was no malt vinegar. OK, so that last one outs me as "not from Wisconsin" and I'm OK with that. I'll bring my own malt vinegar next time. That's my fault.

I did give an extra star to reflect the friendliness and efficiency. Calling in to order was a breeze, and the staff was super nice. Picking up was also easy, and the portions were huge. So everthing was rolling on smoothly... Until we ate the food. It... just wasn't the same... I'm trying to limit our "chicken" day to once a month, and I wouldn't come back here for that. I'm a little sad. Other J&J locations are better. I also noted some discrepancies in price between here and the website. So maybe they're not a legit J&J? Anyway, the food was just bland... not crispy enough... Wings - too dry. Like old wings. They weren't even hot. Felt like they had been fried some hours ago. Catfish nuggets - fishy. "Fishy" smelling fried fish means NOT fresh fish. But these were newly made - piping hot. So comparing their warmth to the chicken, you could tell the chicken was definitely made earlier, before we had called. Fries - soggy. Period.

We met for lunch and were seated upstairs, funnily enough the same place we sat the first time. Service was very good and fast. There were plenty of tables full on a Friday lunchtime, but it was a holiday weekend. We ordered sandos all around. My egg salad one was excellent with the soft bread and creamy mayo. I had regular fries and they were good. Our Japanese pumpkin and potato croquettes were wonderful and crunchy and addictive. My friend felt all the nostalgic feels about her chicken katsu sando and enjoyed her loaded fries. BF also enjoyed his pork sando. We have ordered carry-outs repeatedly from here and it will be in our regular rotation.

I ordered one of the combos and added mussels on the side which I highly recommend. Got the mixed sauce with no heat because spicy food is not my thing, and it was still super flavorful. The snow crab was the standout for me, so good so juicy! Shrimp is a classic must, potatoes and corn were yummy, and the mussels were 10/10. Also, the corn bread was A+++!! If you can't do spicy or just don't like heat, don't let that stop you from coming here because you can still have a great meal. Price point is also really reasonable especially if you're sharing. The setup for taking food to go is easy and convenient, and there's a hand washing station in the middle of the restaurant which is practical. Only heads up is parking can be tricky on weekends so just plan for that. Workers were super friendly. Would definitely come back.
