Wendt's is the standard I use to judge all other fish Fry's. Haven't been for several years, but I think it's stil top notch. Oscar's Tavern in Fondy is very good, and Schmitty's Oar House in Taychedah has a good perch and Bluegill combo.

The Greenville Station has pretty good all-u-can eat Alaskan Walleye.

This is a good topic, as I always like to try new places for fish.

Cedar Springs Golf Course near Manawa. Fantastic fish, an all you can eat fish and chicken special plus other sea food choices AND the BEST rib eye steak I've had, which usually has me ordering a "combo" of some sort.

It's a little off the beaten path but worth the trip.

http://www.cedarspringsgolfcourse.com for a map and directions

I also second Greenville Station

I agree with Shep, Wendt's is the best, I also haven't been for a couple years, thanks for the idea, might have to make the drive up this Friday.

Shep,

I think the Harley bar is called HardTails. Horton Inn is a block further to the west...

OK, I would be up for Friday at Wendt's. We'll use this as a warm up for when Jerry can join in the good eats and fun! Heal quickly, Jerry.

Who's in? What time? 6ish? 7?

I'm not sure if we can make reservations, or if it's strictly by sign up. I'll call and find out. If it's by sign up, I could get there early, and get us on the list.

As of right now I am in Shep. Pending I don't get forced to work. The earlier the better for me because I have another commitment to attend back in the Manitowoc area at 9 p.m. Wifey and the kids won't be coming so I am free for the night. What would be the best route for me to take? 151 through Fondy and up 45 or 10 to 41 and around?

Shep, doesn't look like we will be able to make it, My wife has plans. I don't think my daughter would like to come up there with a bunch of guys. Maybe next time.

moreyes,

When I'm 'home' I try to make it to the fish fry at the American Legion in Pine River. But I've got to admit, the fish fry choices in my new home are pretty tempting

All right,

Let's plan for a night when Jerry is healthy, Shink's wife isn't busy, Horshak doesn't have later plans, and Tyee actually answers on time! hehehe

I say three weeks from tonight. If that doesn't work, list your options.

Great topic about fish frys.

My favorite is Cimeron, best broiled Haddock around. IMHO.

Tyee, I don't remember, and I'm too stupid to save it on my cell. Call me at work, and leave a VM with your number.

920-730-8800

Horshak, do the same, and I'll confirm.

Met up at Wendt's with Tyee and his wife, and their friend Dave and his wife. Had a great meal of lightly breaded, butterflied perch. A couple Bud Light's, and fun conversation made for a fine dinner.

Wendt's is still top notch, as far as I'm concerned. Was a good tuneup for when Jerry is healed, and can make it!

Feb 2, I'm in, but lets do the Fish Tail at the entrance to calumet county park on the north end of the lake. I have to admit Wendt's was pretty good Shep, and the 15oz was just enough. A bit pricy though for a bar enviro. Tell your wife it was a pleasure to meet her and thanks for joining our party we had a great time!
Good luck
