Cool and unique. Enjoyable visit with decent bar style food. Burger was good, like a diner. Steak sandwich wasn’t bad, like a chopped steak. But, the sausage and smoked kraut was amazing! Highly recommend this order, plus a few Hamm’s to wash it down. Note — CASH ONLY.

The food sucks. That’s all I can say- this is a $16 catfish dinner. I’ve never had fish that was rubbery and zero taste. Nice atmosphere but don’t go to eat

Cute little hidden gem! The owner is a delight. The cod sandwich tasted so fresh with the perfect amount of breading. Tater tots were also yummy. Definitely worth trying it out! *cash only*

The food was delicious and affordable with a great view! Need I say anymore?! Really cool vibe, the staff was very sweet and the gentleman even gave us recommendations on places my boyfriend and I could stop at on our drive through Iowa! We both had the channel fish sandwich and it was SO fresh and delicious. Definitely get a side of fries because those were fantastic too. I also have no idea how they pickle their pickles (haha!) But you get a tiny piece of what looks like a pickle with your meal and it tastes like fresh watermelon but looks like a pickle. Crazy! Enjoy your meal and drink with a beautiful view of the Mississippi River with lots of pelicans!

A very special, one of a kind place, just amazing. It’s the perfect spot on the river to watch the world go by, and the homemade food happens to be great too. BBQ rib sandwich, mashed potatoes, calico veggies, and cheese curds were all great. Vintage maritime decor, laid back atmosphere, friendly staff. Mike the owner engaged everyone, asking how the food was and if they needed anything. An honest and kind-hearted person, he really made the experience perfect. Only open May – October. Closing for the season soon I heard, so get there while you can.

Fish Shack is a unique treasure. The food was fantastic, the best fish I’ve had in a long time. The atmosphere is inviting and unpretentious. The owner was funny and engaging. This is a must stop! And will be a regular stop for me when I’m in the area.

A wonderful little gem that you might miss if you don’t where to look for it. Mike and the gals were great, the food was amazing and we’ll definitely be going back again soon! Beautiful and relaxing view of the river as well.

Best fish ever! Plan on walking down the bank of the Mississippi River but it’s worth all the steps. Be sure to check when they are open.
