State Fair Inn was a fantastic option for Fish Fry this past weekend. The place has a very vintage supper club vibe with plenty of food options for even the pickiest of eaters.
Service was a bit slow, but we were in no rush and they were certainly friendly. I had the pan fried lake perch - so yummy! The meals are served with soup and salad - very supper clubby - right?
The vintage decor, dimly lit lighting and vinyl clad bar stools are a clear indication that this place has seen some days!
A hidden gem for sure - I would recommend stopping in! -

If I could give this place zero stars I would. We called this evening for fish fry. They said there was a 45 minute wait for 7 people. So we drove over there just to be asked, "did you call?" We said "we just spoke with you on the phone and you said it would be a 45 minute wait." She said, "well we still have to feed the people at the bar and we have people who usually come in around 7:00 and we have to feed them too." There were FOUR six tops open and we were even WILLING TO WAIT for service. They pushed us away way too willingly. Find somewhere else to enjoy a Friday night fish fry, this place is ridiculous.

We are visiting from out of town and wanted a Friday night fish fry. We called ahead and were told there was a 45 minute wait, but there was room to hang out at the bar. We showed up less than 5 minutes later, willing to wait, and the hostess at the door literally turned us away and told us she wouldn't even put us on a waiting list. Plenty of open tables, but gave us all kinds of reasons like they had to feed the people at the bar, they had regulars coming in, etc. Real fantastic hospitality. Would not recommend coming here.

As part of my mission to try every fish fry in Southeast Wisconsin I have to say this place is somewhere between the best and the worst, on the you should try it at least once side. It's a nice neighborhood bar with friendly inefficient service. A big drawback is it's a blue plate special blue hair crowd type of place, busy early in the evening, out of fish by mid evening. Since I like to eat dinner more like around dinner time, I had to come here three times, each time successively earlier to make it before they ran out of fish.

Nice old-fashioned fish fry. Locals bar in front with a smallish dining room in back. Just enough to eat without feeling overly stuffed. Good selection of fish entrees broiled, pan fried or deep fried. Onion rings are an option and the dinner includes a small cup of soup. The service was good and the staff was friendly. This will become part of our Friday fish fry rotation.
