Brookton Catfish school

Yummy and so close to where we live. Love all the decor. Sauses were on point!! Slaw tasted real close to the slaw i make at home. Okra so yummy. I got the soft shell crab have never had before was good. Hubby got catfish yummy. Watch for bones is bone in fish in the baskets im assuming sandwiches would be boneless. I wanna try a sandwich next time for sure maybe the trout. Also interested in trying oysters never had it fried like that and dont like normal oysters so would love to try it here fried. Only complaint i have is flies annoying us while we ate inside but that could be as simple as some fly traps being hung about.

Three stars, but let me explain. We’ve had friends hype this place up…. Big time. It opened nearly a year ago, just down the road from our house and haven’t had the opportunity to try it until this week, but have always noticed the lines out door and the packed parking lot. Friday, we decided to go for a late lunch pick up. Let me say again… we only live about three miles from the restaurant. We arrive, it’s around 3pm and the place is PACKED. It’s an adorable place. Great ambiance, totally welcoming when you come in the door. They’ve got nice outdoor seating as well, with cornhole games and lighting. Nice touch, especially on a beautiful day. Walking in, we were greeted by the clerk at the register and informed it would be a 20 minute wait, which was fine. This having been our first time

Went to Dinner here the other night and what a yummy meal everyone had there was indoor seating and as you can see outside also, the food was amazing they cook everything fresh to order so it is about 35-45 minutes to get your food but it was worth it the Catfish hushpuppies, shrimp, chickentenders and fries were all seasoned and was cooked to perfection and they had two different slaw , old school and Jalapeño slaw , I had the old school it was all so delicious and then don't get me started about the fried apple pies to finish off the meal reminded me of the better then old version of McDonald's apple pies from the 70s , If you didn't know about this place please check it out I am definitely going back ! They are only open Thursday thru Sunday so make plans for one of these days .

Catfish filets, shrimp, and crab sandwich were all phenomenal. Hush puppies and jalapeno slaw are to die for. Love the family style seating, also! You can smell the greatness before you walk in the door! 🙌

We were fans of the original BCS and were super excited about it opening back up. Three generations of my family were there on Saturday and we had a great time. The Big Brookton Platter was huge and included shrimp, scallops, oysters, clam strips, and fried fish(we chose trout). All were fried with skill and served on a mound of fries with hush puppies scattered around. It was an impressive mountain of southern fried seafood brought to our table. In addition to the seafood, my daughter ordered chicken fingers and liked them so much that she took an extra order home. We had a great time and we’ll be back. Thanks to the attentive staff for excellent service as well.
