Fishy Fishy Cafe

Really enjoyed this place. Great atmosphere on the water. Had a delicious orange bourbon with a prime rib cheese steak that was phenomenal. They say their clam chowder is the absolute best, so I tried it and it is pretty spot on with New England style clam chowder, and I’m from Massachusetts and basically grew up on “chowdah”. This was in November and obviously not tourist season so the area was quiet and peaceful. Our server was very kind, friendly and explained all of the specials to us, which is how I came about the prime rib cheese steak. I’d definitely go here again in the future.

Highly recommend Fishy Fishy Cafe if you’re in the Southport N Carolina area! Cajun Mahi Bites are amazing and the Red Oak Beer Battered Haddock is very good as well. Lauren my server was excellent and attentive as well! I will be back while in town working!

We went for late lunch/early dinner. It was a beautiful autumn afternoon. Lots of sunshine and light breezes. We were promptly seated next to the water, in the sun. Our server, Drake, immediately opened the isenglass curtains to let the breeze come in. It was perfect. We started with the jalapeño hush puppies. They are absolutely amazing. My wife got the shrimp po boy, I got the fish & chips. Both were very delicious. And Drake was extremely attentive and regularly checked with us in case we needed anything. In the 5 years we’ve now lived in the area, Fishy Fishy has become one of our favorite go-to’s. Highly recommend!

Our shrimp feast was fabulous! My favorite was the peel and eat and the coconut shrimp was a close second. Phyllis' shrimp cocktail was also awesome. Easy boat parking and friendly, fast service from Amber with lots of drink refills. Highly recommend!

Absolutely a gem in Southport! Awesome view, good prices, nice staff, HUGE portions. If you leave hungry, you did something wrong. Our waiter Eric was absolutely amazing!
