Needed a quick snack before heading out of Key West and the docents at the Customs House museum recommended this place. Conch fritters were delicious - might have been a hair overcooked on the outside and a hair undercooked on the inside but great flavor. Dipping sauces were great - we had spicy mayo and key lime mustard. It's an outdoor food truck in the middle of town - great central location. The guy who took our order was so friendly and fun - everything cooked to order! read more

This traditional Key West style pink and white shack is next to the aquarium and sponge market. Before going into the aquarium, grabbed a cold homemade Key Limeaid drink for $4.00, seems Key Lime is the big flavor around these parts. It was a large Pepsi cup (would have liked a business logo stamped cup) and helped to quench my thirst but maybe too sugary of a sweet treat. Walking around Key West it is always a good idea to have fluids with you to avoid heatstroke. As for eats, they specialize in fried conch and chicken fritters with shrimp, clam and fish baskets. Like everywhere else around the Keys, they also offer key lime pie on the stick. No line out front so not really how sure the quality of the food other than from customer reviews with a 4 star rating, but a great spot with cheap fried food and soft drinks. read more

This was one of our first stops on the trolley tour, and it was also our first time trying conch fritters. The stand is located right outside the Key West Aquarium, and they make the fritters fresh to order. They were very hot. There are several sauces to choose from. At the time, we had nothing to compare them to and thought they were pretty good. After trying conch fritters at a few other places, we realized these were just okay. There wasn't much conch in them, and they seemed to be mostly batter. Lots of great seafood options in Key West. Not a place that I would come back to. read more

Only had the fritters. They were just chewy dough balls. No conch. Service was not very polite either. Would not recommend and don't know if anything else on the menu is good or not. read more

Great location by Mallory Square. The owner taking our order was hilarious. Great humor and life advice came out of him. He quickly took our order while the cook would start preparing our smorgasbord of a feast before we even paid. Fantastic teamwork. As our food came out the side window, we prepared a variety of sauces to try with all this deep fried delight. Sitting at one of the tree benches by the nearby fountain gave us the opportunity to people watch the cruisers coming off the ships. Four adults and two kids devoured this deliciousness. No wonder this stand has been around for decades. read more

Just a little shack in the center of the town, but they are true to their word. It is the best in the world. Perfectly fried and fluffy with secret dipping sauces. It made my conch dreams come true.

Service was great. Food was ready fast. Actually too fast. Oil was too hot. Out side of fritters were predark, while the inside was still good. Just barely warm. Might not have Ben fully cooked. read more

Best conch fritters around! If you're in the area, stop here! You won't regret it. Hubby has been eating the conch fritters from here for years. He finally took me and I'm hooked. Not only are these the best conch fritters in Key West, they are the best anywhere! We ordered the 12 piece conch fritters with a side of the Key Lime mustard. The gentleman working the stand uses a small ice cream scoop style tool to pop the conch fritters batter into the fryer. A few minutes later, we had 12 freshly fried, flavor-packed, hot and delicious conch fritters. The Key Lime mustard is a game changer! It's tangy and delightful. Try this place and I'll be hooked like me! read more

We asked a lifetime Key West resident who sells tickets for the Conch Train where she would go for a quick lunch and she told us "Key West Conch Fritters"!!! This was the 1st time ever eating Conch Fritters and all 5 of us are completley hooked. We ordered 3 dozen with a large fry and it was better then a sit down gourmet meal. The fritters were fried to order and served with a homemade key lime mustard sauce. Absolutely Delicious. It was magical. It was the best meal of the week and we didn't have a bad meal the entire time. Our 1st stop next time in Key West. read more

Made a stop by Key West Conch Fritters because word on the street is that they are the best in town. I have never had Conch before, so I didn't know what to expect. The batter was delicious and the accompanying sauces took them over the top. The mustard based sauce was my favorite! I am not a huge Conch fan, but if you are this is well worth the stop. You can't come to Key West and not try Conch! read more

Super good, hot, and on the spot. 12 conch fritters for $20 are not bad because they have a really nice size.

Good stuff!! We are visiting key west for our first anniversary. Walking around we go a little hungry so girlfriend we'd get a snack until lunch. This place we found on Yelp and figured why not. I look to Yelp for guidance on food locations and check out everyone else take on the place. We ordered combo of coconut shrimp, clam strips, calamari rings, and their famous conch fritters. I'm not usually a big fan of conch fritters but after having this place's version. YUMMERS and dipped in their Keylime mustard. read more

Key West Conch Fritters - Excellent flavor but very little conch - Street Vendors Near Me - Key West, Florida

All stuffing and almost zero conch! Terrible and overpriced for what you get. Go to a real restaurant not a shack.

Quaint permanent food stand with a nice Russian lady working at the time we visited. The menu is limited but has seafood inspired fast food style items. Unfortunately the quality is fast food style also. The shrimp were nearly all batter and the conch fritters were small in size and came with commercial packets of cocktail sauce. While the inside of the fritters tasted nice, they were small and a bit overdone. read more

Never had conch fritters so might as well try it from this supposedly world famous stand right? Located right next to the aquarium entrance in the heart of Mallory Square its kind of hard to miss this stand even though its little. First of all, why is it so pricey? You can either get 6 for $7.50 or 12 for $12.50. So I got the 6 piece. I guess the good thing is that it's freshly deep fried after ordering so you gotta wait a couple minutes. I bite into one and the best way I can describe it is that its basically a hush puppy with bits of conch meat mixed in. The taste and texture is similar to calamari but not as flavorful. According to their sign: "Our secret is useing plenty of sweet conch meat! Mix it with garlic and lime juice, salt and black pepper, onions, flour, sweet n hot peppers, then fry to a golden brown" - Greg Curry, Proprietor. Yes I know I spelled "useing" wrong. That's exactly what they have on their sign. From the description it makes it sound like its really flavorful but it's really not. I even dipped it in the key lime mustard and it didn't help it much. So bottom line is that its not for me. If you like hush puppies than conch fritters can be your thing too. I was more disappointed than anything when I couldn't taste any of the description. That sign is actually what made me curious to try it in the first place. Yelp 2019 Review #22 763 overall read more

Did not like the conch fritters here at all! Was here for the day on a cruise ship stop and was really looking forward to getting conch fritters in Key West. To start off, the two men working were not the least bit friendly. The fritters themselves were very dense and dry with hardly any conch meat. If I didn't know what was supposed to be inside I could never have guessed conch. After seeing pics on Yelp I saw that everyone else was given the key lime dipping sauce which probably would have made a big difference, however I was never given any sauce or even told they had sauce. I don't know if I came on a bad day or what but there is no way this place deserves more than one star. read more

I was on a cruise recently that visited Key West, and I stumbled across Key West Conch Fritters on my way back to the ship and had to stop. It's not fancy.. just a shack really, but the conch fritters were delicious! Thrown in the deep fryer right after I ordered a half dozen and ready about 4 minutes later, these hot little conch-filled hushpuppies were nice and hot and darn good. No sauce needed.. even though it's available at the pick-up window. Grab some fritters and relax under the shaded trees while watching the chickens walk by.. and forget all of your worries in the world! read more

Literally all the food options are frozen box options from the grocery store that they heat up and resell back to tourists that don't know to ask if the food is fresh. Prices high and food is low quality, I'd go to a place that deserves your business and represents the freshness of the Florida Keys. read more

For a quick taste of Key West head to this food shack(?) Located close to the cruise port this is a great spot for trying conch fritters!

So good! Came here based on other reviews and I wasn't disappointed. The conch fritters were large and fried to perfection. The spicy mustard sauce was also super tasty! read more

Our driver on the trolley tour said these were his favorite conch fritters in key west so we absolutely had to put them to the test! They are in fact perfect and delicious. They are almost a little sweet which I guess is a result of the sweet corn involved. They aren't overly heavy or greasy, so they are delightful little morsel to enjoy while walking around Mallory Square. I didn't know about the key lime mustard but once we put a little in the tip jar we were offered a little cup and I'm so glad we were because it was the perfect accompaniment. Wash it all down with a key limeade and you have the trappings of a wonderful day. read more

When in Key West you gotta have conch fritters. What better place to have these but at a place called Conch Fritters. Small food truck type of business located at the end of the Trolly ride, just outside the Key West Aquarium. Belly up to the window, place your order. Pay. Then the fritters are cooked fresh for you. A few minutes later...deliciousness. Try the lime mayonnaise that they offer. Yummylicious too! Order, eat, enjoy! Repeat! Worth a visit when in Key West. read more

I was referred to this little shack by a local insisting that I try fried conch on my visit to Key West. He made a good call. // Directions // It is the white and pink shack at the corner of Whitehead and Wall. You have to walk here. If you're traveling north on Front St from the pier, look for the water tower and turn left at the small street with the "Do Not Enter" sign (for automobiles). You can't miss it - the stand is next to the aquarium and the toy factory store. Search for this place on google and you'll find plenty of people commenting on this humble food stand as their favorite place for conch and one of the oldest conch vendors on the island. Their menu consists of many different seafood-related snacks: grouper fish and chips, chicken, shrimp, calamari, onion rings, fries, and conch fritters. The prices are very cheap, with most snacks coming in at around $5 or under. Conch fritters were $6 for 6, or $11 for 12. They also had this fantastic-sounding combination plate special, consisting multiple types of fried seafood for $10. As for drinks, keylimeade sounded very intriguing. I was quite sad that I wasn't hungry enough to try more things on the menu. I had conch fritters, of course, with a little bit of key lime mustard sauce. be heavy-handed with the sauce, because the flavor is subtle. The staff there was super quick and super friendly. They pointed out where the condiments were and got me utensils when I asked. The stand is small, with no place to sit (the only downfall when it's raining), but there is a little overhang to cover you while you're ordering. Overall, great. I would definitely return. read more
