Tell Us the Best Fish Fry in Town

Give us your suggestions and we'll feature those spots in a poll on Monday.

 

Who's got the best fish fry in Menomonee Falls or Sussex? Patch wants to know.

Fish fries are always popular in Wisconsin, and everyone has a favorite.

But there is no time for a fish fry like Lent, which began this week.

We'd like to know where your favorite spot is for a Friday night fish fry. Give us a suggestion in the comments section below, and we'll feature that spot in a poll on Monday.

You'll be able to vote throughout the week, and we'll name the winner on March 2. Winners will be determined by Patch editors based on poll votes, comments, reviews and Facebook or Twitter feedback.

Our search for the Best Fish Fry kicks off 12 weeks of local business competition, trying to narrow down the top spots in town for everything from pizza to mechanics to salons.

So start thinking of your local favorites, and get ready to vote, share your opinions and write reviews abut the best spots in town.

Sussex Inn USED to have the best fish fry, until they stopped changing the oil in their deep fryer. French fries should NOT stick to your teeth! Anyone been there lately to see if it has improved?

Maybe try something other than their fries, but I know for a fact they change the oil.

Bellyup is a great place for a fishfry. The food is fantastic and homemade potatoe pancakes or homemade german potatoe salad.

I completely agree with this..............Bellyup serves a great variety of fish or sea food and Becki's homemade German Potato Salad is about as good as my mom's was. It is a small place but they are quick and take out is available too. I believe they are now serving fish fry's on Wednesday's during lent as well. Try it out and enjoy.

Sussex Inn is still the best in town. Try the potato pancakes instead of the fries.

Sussex Inn is the best fish fry in Sussex. Lots of new competition in town but Dave still has the best fish and food by far.

Alright everyone, the nominations are in! Starting FIRST THING Monday morning, Patch will have an official poll where you decide who the winner is. The reason we had nominations for this round of Patch's "Best Of..." is because establishments other than restaurants could have outstanding fish fry's (e.g. Churches). We didn't want to miss out on that. :) Have a great weekend, and I can't wait to see who officially wins the poll next week!

My preference is Rich's. Great fish fry, friendly service, homemade mashed potatoes and coleslaw. Just a nice little restaurant that makes you feel at home.

I beg to differ about the Sussex Inn. I have been to both restaurants and tried both. Richs Restaurant in Menomonee Falls has by far the best fry! Their cod is served with my favorite potato pancakes. Not to mention their tap beers are only a $1.00

RICH'S ON MENOMONEE FALLS HAS THE BEST FISH FRY I EVER HAD. NEVER DISAPPOINTED. THEY DO A SPECIAL JOB IN TOTAL ON IT. THEY HAVE A SPECIAL SEASONING ON FISH, THEIR COLE SLAW HAS A SECRET INGREDIENT TO DIE FOR, THEIR TARTAR SAUCE ALSO HAS CONSISTENTLY BEEN THE BEST. THE PORTION OF FISH IS EXTREMELY LARGE AND USUALLY HAVE TO TAKE SOME HOME. RICH'S IS MENOMONEE FALLS' IS THE BEST ALL AROUND RESTAURANT IN TOWN.
