Nothing but high marks for Catfish Hole. When you can smell food from the parking lot you know it's going to be good. Service was excellent, my server was amazing, answered all my questions. Food was amazing, everything is house made,hand cut fries, fresh tarter sauce, hushpuppies soft and delicious. Great menu selections. Great for families or groups. Dollars value is probably one of the best.
Looking for a good fish place this is it!! Cajon catfish was fantastic. Wait staff were all working hard to keep drinks full and empty plates cleared.
Catfish, or any seafood for that matter, is not my cup of tea.....but since this place is a local institution, decided to give it a go. Our server Chelsea was on it like none I have ever seen. If our drinks or the hush puppies needed attention, we had more before you could blink an eye. She was one of the best I have seen or experienced in some time. Food wise the hush puppies were legendary, and the Cole slaw was good. For my entree, I had the chicken tenders which were fantastic and fries that were made from real potatoes. If you leave this place and are still hungry, there is something wrong with you.
Catfish Hole offers a reliably good meal. The catfish is excellent, and the sides are well-prepared. It's a straightforward, friendly spot for classic Southern comfort food.
Finally have a good win in Fayetteville! Had the boneless fried catfish and a baked potato. Food was really good. Fish cooked well but wasn't piping hot as excepted but it was still good and the ONLY reason I'm giving it a 4 stars not five. Hush puppies were the star of the show. They were piping hot and so good when they came out. Not to dense or oily. My baked potato wasn't fluffy, you could tell it was sitting for a while but again, I enjoyed my entire meal. Atmosphere was a bit outdated but we can all move past that and the service was phenomenal.
Visiting from out of state with family. They suggested The Catfish Hole. Ohhhh, Mercy me. The place was clean, no tables waiting to be cleared. Staff very friendly. Before ordering ,you are brought bowls of hush puppies, Cole slaw, dill pickle spears and green tomato relish. These are replenished the whole time you are there. Drinks are filled up . We all had catfish and it was Delicious. I'm not a tomato fan, let alone green tomatoes, but worth the try. Tastes just like sweet relish. In the area, please give them a try. You won't be disappointed.
Visiting from Wisconsin, Friday Fish Fry is a thing and we found this gem! Love to support local business when traveling.... this place was such a find! Did NOT disappoint...The owner is such a sweet lady, she's really poured her heart into this place and it shows. The staff was super friendly and energetic. Loved the vibe of the place. Food was great and it just seemed to keep coming... the coleslaw was delicious and the staff kept the bowl full! I'm here a few more days and might have to stop again! So good!
The fish here is AWESOME!!! The hushpuppies they bring you when you sit down are addictive as well as the Cole slaw and tomato relish. If you have not tried this place and love good food, get moving, and get there early. The place is big and always full!!!
