If your looking for a good fish fry look no further. We have been traveling around trying different fish Fry’s throughout the area and most say this has been the best so far. The beer battered haddock had a lite breading and the flavor was awesome. The portion size is also really good, I ordered the 3 piece and could not finish it all. Everyone complimented how good the food was. We arrived around 5:30pm and was lucky enough to slip right into a table. The bar area is not the biggest so either plan on going early or waiting in the bar area. Overall they did a great job and we will definitely be back.

Friday fish fry is downright succulent! Saturday prime rib is tasty. The bands and the garage are an experience you’ll not find in many small towns. Great establishment to support!

The waitress that waited on us Saturday, October 1st ROCKS. There were 14 of us with 6 separate bills and she handed everything with a smile and respect. Food was excellent, service was outstanding. The seasonal group from Iola Pines Campground THANK YOU for amazing time.

I had the best Prime Rib I have ever had! It was sooo tender and perfect with the horseradish I had with it. And the beer battered shrimp were the biggest I have ever eaten! Such a fantastic meal. Oh, and the fried onion rings as an appetizer were fantastic! Very crispy. Loved the whole meal!

The food was great and the only reason I didn’t give service a 10 was it was so busy over the dinner hour that the waitresses had trouble giving great coverage. But that wasn’t their fault! The food was great and we really appreciated the live band in the garage while it rained! Great show with Stone Cold Country!

My sister lives in Iola and we went up to celebrate her birthday. My sister and her husband suggested the Thirsty Perch. What a treat of small town atmosphere. Super service and friendly conversation. Everyone knew each other. The place was packed. We went on a Saturday for dinner around 5. Got sat at a nice table right by the windows to overlook the lake. What a great experience. Food was delicious and company was delightful.

We are from Milwaukee area and had the Thirsty Perch for the first time tonight and it was amazing!!
The beer battered haddock was so insanely crispy, well seasoned, and the fish was so juicy and flaky. Best fish fry we have had in many years!
The fries were so deliciously seasoned, crispy on the outside, and hot, fresh, and soft on the inside.
The coleslaw was simple but delicious. Creamy, tangy, and lightly seasoned.
Our waitress was super upbeat and took care of all of her customers so we’ll!
HIGHLY recommend. Already texted the family about it. Will for sure be back!

Great cocktail seved by Morgan . Good food. But them poor waitresses getting chewed out for the long wait on food. The place was busy and of course almost any where go now days with good food you will wait up to a hour to eat. Was there on 9 1 23 and was not impressed with a group of ladies the way they were treating the waitress. Get some real problems people.

Waitress was attentive but the kitchen staff did not have their timing right. Our son’s food came out first. Quesadilla. It was supposed to be cheese and it had chicken. Then my husband and I received our sides. Then my fish came out. Two other entrees took at least another 10 minutes plus the quesadilla to be made again. It was odd.
Old fashions are wonderful but the view was the best part of the evening. Loved seeing the mill pond and the muskrat swim around while we waited. Not sure we’d be back for another fish fry.
