If only the seafood was this good at the beach – Can't pass without stopping, I always get the fish sandwich and can hardly finish it. Great family enviroment.
Overall a good experience – A friend spoke highly of Skipper's so we gave it try. His recommendation was to try the Ipswich Clams. A bit of a disappointment, tasted ok but too rubbery. The clam strips however were the best I've had in the south. Got them as part of the combination platter. The accompanying fries and chicken tenders were very good. The hush puppies and cole slaw were also very good. Service was fine. No question that we'll be returning soon.
Average at best – I am a huge seafood lover. I've driven by Skipper's so many times and never tried it. Today was the day. With my free cobbler coupon in hand I ordered the Large Shrimp Onion platter (over $10.00) and a child's baby shrimp for my daughter. I was really pleased they had a drive thru. You call ahead first and then pull up and your order is ready. It took less than 10 minutes. But the good stops there. I got 12 large fried shrimp - good amount but they didn't TASTE like shrimp. All I could taste was the salty b... read more
The best fish sandwich ever! – They have the best fish sandwich I have ever had! Our family loves to go there and get the fish sandwich. You can get combo platters anywhere but the fish sandwich and Lobster bisque cannot be beat! You can go all over NC and never find a sandwich like this one. When our family is in town we take them there and you should see their faces when the fish sandwich is placed before them!
Great lunch – The couple times I'd been here before were at night, I wasn't aware of the 7 dollar plate they have at lunch.I got my big fish sandwich, and some baked beans. I would recomend it to anyone in a hurry, I was in, ate, and was out the door in about 20 minutes. Well worth the wait in traffic
Big ole pile of..... – SHRIMP!!! Saw their coupon in the neighborhood saver so I thought I'd try the place out. I've passed by the place a thousand times or so on the way to work. My wife got a two way combination plate, and I opted for the baby shrimp onion platter(HUGE!!). That peach cobbler from the coupon is one of the best we've ever had. We ended up taking two more home, one of which didn't make it into the driveway.
If you have some extra bucks give it a shot – Its fried seafood and it all basically tastes the same. You have to be careful what you order because certain dishes are extremely small and others are quite plentiful. We usually get the white fish and baby shrimp and it satisfies us. It comes with a pile of fries, hushpuppies, and coleslaw but that still does not justify the price. Its the only seafood around really so if you have a craving go for it but you'll probably need a credit card.
Lived in Raleigh a month and eaten here twice – We were here first for Cajun Wednesday. The gumbo was well prepared. I did have to add a little of the skippers seasoning, but it stands to reason that it wouldn't be a spicy as I usually make mine. They are selling it to a diverse public. I have had the shrimp, scallops, Oysters. and catfish and have been please with all. The fries are a little fishy, but kind of expected in a fish market. The tartar sauce was very good the cocktail sauce was average, but edible. I do want to ... read more
We're skipping Skippers next time – Our family loves seafood and was looking forward to having some local takeout, especially after reading the reviews here. However, as much as I wanted to like it at first, the rest of the family didn't like it at all. I ended up trying everything they had to be sure and they were right, the seafood was just not good. Firstly, the portions are smaller than other places we've tried in the past, basically combo plates are a few pieces of seafood on top of a huge pile of greasy fishy tasting f... read more
