McCoy's Fish Shack, Inc. — Restaurant in Lancaster

A mostly positive review.

Interesting place. I think it is quite unique. The sheer variety of products is quite crazy... fish, donuts, sandwiches, burgers, boba, pizza, funnel cakes, even chili. I love the idea of a one stop shop for every artery clogging bad decision one can think of.

Prices... pretty good. Can't really complain. Especially for the huge portions you get. Massive amounts of food. Terrific if you're hungry. Many entrees are sharable in size for budget minded people.

Service... so, so. The lady working the counter was pleasant enough and took my order quickly. Had about a 10 minute wait while the food was being made fresh to order. One star lost for a missing item. I didn't notice until I got home and it kind of bummed me on the experience. A phone called straightened it out and I was offered reparation on my next visit, so that is a bit redeeming.

Down to brass tax, the food... a bit of a mixed bag for me. It was all fine. Sadly, just fine, not amazing. It is perfectly commensurate with the price. The value was there. I just think I may pay a bit more for a bit better. The fish was a bit different than I would expect by its soft breaded texture. I prefer crispy. I think the fry oil was pushing its limit on needing changed as well. The fried class were just what one would expect. I have no complaints with that item. The fries... i wish they were made in house instead of crinkle cut generic frozen fries.. I would gladly drop another buck or two to have homemade. It would make the experience much better for just a little more.

Final verdict. I will return, order less, check my goods before I leave, and also try something other than the fish (maybe the shrimp 🍤). If you are really hungry and want seafood on a budget, go for it. You likely won't be disappointed if you keep your...

Extremely brilliant concept. They have not only fish and chips as well as donuts, which by the way are light and have some chew with great flavor and sweetness. Great donuts but also cookies and home made large coffee cake. Oh yeah there are burgers which I want to try but me and my wife had the buffalo wings (nice crisp and flavor) get extra sauce. Also the surf and turf (craw fish and choped steak with corn and potatoes, Goooood. We love the atmosphere with Homer Simpson life size statue inside behind the candy bar. I got the huge pink donut with sprinkles and they let me take a picture with Homer and the donut. Check the menu because there is so much to order your head will spin. Burgers, chili fries, fish, wings, burgers, Philly cheese steak, pizza, crab boil, deep fried twenties, snickers, and oreos. Cotton candy, iced late coffee, slashes, fruit smoothies and more. Its like a carnival food setting and the out door seating at night with the lights is comfy and fun. Great place for the kids . The place is small but get the food and enjoy out front. The only thing missing are the roller-coasters. In a nut shell, good food in a happy place and never boring. I have never had so much to say about one place. I hope you all give it a shot and enjoy life....

This WAS my favorite donut spot. Until I walked in and overheard the owners husband speaking to one of his female employees. While the employee was looking for a jar of jam for a customer he’s sitting off to the side yelling at her “ use your brain mama it’s right there you’re not using your brain “ then once he goes and points out what she’s looking for her proceeds to demean her. After the employee ( clearly bothered ) goes to the back he proceeds to speak to his friends saying “ this is why they can’t own business, they can’t even figure out the small stuff “ I’m unsure if the “ they “ was referring to women or minorities either way to speak like this about your employees while customers are there I can only imagine what you do when they are not. I asked the man if he was the owner he stated yes then corrected it saying his wife owned it. I then told him if his wife could give him some advice, it would be to talk to his employees with respect and like humans. I will not be going back to this place. In these times we must do better and be...
