If money and distance were no object, I’d eat at Doug’s more often.
Doug’s offers a positive atmosphere, a joie de vivre that you just can’t ignore. The food is tasty, the folks are friendly, the tables are clean, and the condiments are comprehensive.
You can’t ignore the fact that everything (it seems) is fried. That adds to the flavor and texture but, well, there’s an awful lot of bad press out there about the downside of fried food. I hate to say it, but it seems believable and it’s the only thing that costs Doug’s a 5-star-across-the-board rating.
Well, one of two things. They ain’t cheap. Money is an object, so you may not want to eat there /too/ frequently.

Doug’s in Skaneateles is one of a very few places I’ve visited that offers model railroading as part of the decor. Watching the train chug along the near-the-ceiling mounted tracks never seems to lose its charm.

The ordering and serving area reminds me of one of those seafood shacks along the MA-NH-Maine coast.

If you’re a visitor to the area, don’t miss it!

Came back here after quite some time after a nice autumn drive. We have had some nice experiences here in the past. Had the fish fry with onion rings and the gumbo. The gumbo was served hot which was a redeeming feature. However this flavoring was not something I have had of a gumbo before and wasn’t that pleasant to me either. Did see an odd okra piece and something else that might have been seafood. The breaded fish fry was vintage Doug’s the rolls seem stale and the onion rings were ok. Skaeneatlas has a lot more places to offer and will probably choose to sample those offerings.

Doug’s is by far the BEST Fish Fry in the country! I currently live in Chicago but I am originally from upstate New York. Whenever I visit family, I drive the extra hour and a half to stop down and skaneateles and get my fish dinner that never disappoints. The service is outstanding and the food has never wavered in its consistency or incredible taste. I can’t wait to get back there for another visit. Update: I went out of my way to swing by on New Year’s Eve for lunch and it was the BEST meal I’ve ever had at Dougs! Really looking forward to more trips back to Dougs in 2026!!!

Wentt here for the first time for an early dinner with family from Florida. We ordered and found a table near the windows. The restroom was decorated with a bunch of photos and fun stuff on the walls, super cute. The service was friendly and quick. The food was fresh and super hot. I got the tender dinner with fries and Mac and cheese and the Mac was fantastic! The tenders and fries were good too. Hubby got the fish sandwich dinner and liked it but said the fish was kind of flavorless.. overall we’ll be back and enjoyed it. It was a bit loud in there but it was also quite busy.

Doug’s Fish Fry was UNBELIEVABLE. Some of the best seafood I’ve ever had in my life. The workers were kind and service was prompt and superb. We got the scallops dinner and a fish plate and ho-ly-crap was it incredible. Some of the most tender scallops and fish I’ve ever had. They have several house made fresh sauces (including remarkable tartar and cocktail sauces) that perfectly compliment their food. The hand cut fries and freshly battered onion rings were to die for. And the view from the front window was so picturesque.

If you are ANYWHERE within a one hour drive of this restaurant, please do yourself a favor and stop in. You won’t find better food, fresher fish, or more excellent service anywhere else.

Doug’s Fish and Chips was a delightful experience, with everything cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The highlight was definitely the lobster roll rich, fresh, and buttery, it stood out as the star of the meal. The sauces were another standout, offering the perfect tangy and savory complement to the seafood. Both the crisps and onion rings were satisfyingly crunchy and flavorful, though just a bit on the oily side, which is expected and forgivable for this kind of hearty, indulgent comfort food.

A must visit if at Skaneateles. Everything on the menu was fresh and you can taste the quality. They make their own sauces, use local products and are very friendly. Large portion for the fish sandwich, the scallops were fried just right, shrimp was perfect. The coleslaw was the best I’ve ever had, it must have been just made.

This is a delicious and fast dish try. I always stop by when I am in the area for a fish dinner. The fish is nice and flaky covered in corn meal batter. The slaw is well balanced and goes well with the fish. The fries are fresh cut, crispy, delicious, and their home made honey mustard is perfect for dipping the fries.

Mi wife and I had the fish and onion rings for lunch. We should have shared one because the serving was ginormous. I was going to get a picture of it but I lost all control and dove right in without any control. We used to live upstate twenty years ago and we are there then, so glad we could still come back all these years later. Don’t forget to try the apple sundae, it’s to die for.
