The classic fish sandwich can be a delicious indulgence, but it was born of necessity. In the 1950s and 1960s, some U.S. burger restaurants were struggling to break even on Fridays due to the Catholic practice of abstaining from meat on that day, according to Smithsonian Magazine. Enterprising burger stand owners added fish sandwiches, and soon, grabbing a fast-food fish sandwich became popular for Catholics on Fridays and during Lent.
Beyond fast-food places, many of which launch their own excellent renditions seasonally, many full-service restaurants around the country also serve crave-worthy fish sandwiches with an eye on what tastes fresh, makes a satisfying meal, and has toppings that pair well with seafood. You'll find a bounty of crunchy, flavorful fish sandwiches in every part of the U.S. Spoiler: a lot of seafood chains do fish sammies really well! Here are eight of the best.
With around 300 locations in the U.S., the famed sports bar chain, known for flavorful wings , serves a Big Fish Sandwich. It's a well-earned moniker. You'll get an enormous serving of cod that’s been battered and fried, slipped onto a big hoagie roll, and topped with tartar sauce. It comes with fries, or you can upgrade to onion rings or a salad for a small upcharge. To take the calorie count down, order the fish grilled.
