When you say Wisconsin, many things come to mind, but one of them surely is Fish Fry! Did you know some areas of the country don’t even know what a “Fish Fry” is? We are proud to have so many wonderful options for a Friday Fish Friday so close to home. Whether you like your fish baked or fried, or you prefer your potatoes baked, mashed or ‘pancaked’, we’ve got a great guide for you!
Our popular Fish Fry guide has connected many readers to great local Fish Fry restaurants in Waukesha County and southeastern Wisconsin! These fish fry restaurants are listed by county with our Premier, Title and Highlight sponsors listed first and then the others. And don’t forget to vote for your favorite! In 2017, Stolley’s Hogg Alley won the title of Best Local Fish Fry. Joe Mamas took the title in 2018 and 2019. Who will win this year?
Voting 2020 has ended. Thank you!
