Their food is excellent. We had a small miscommunication and the owner went to a lot of trouble to make it better than right. The tartar sauce is to die for!!!

JUST EAT HERE; YOU WILL THANK ME! We were here to visit Hot Springs National Park & this place was recommended by the cashier at the visitor center. I absolutely love catfish & really had a taste for it. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed! I had the half order of catfish & shrimp. It was seasoned perfectly, not over-salted, and the fish was moist, tender & flaky. The shrimp, hush puppies, fries & cole slaw were all delicious as well. My husband had the crab cakes, and he really liked them also, and the sauce was especially delicious. He also commented on how much he liked the fries; golden, crispy & not over-salted. The fried pies were a new treat which we both really enjoyed as well. The employees were very friendly, welcoming, and went above & beyond to make our visit enjoyable. Thanks for a great finish to our day!

Had some fried catfish here yesterday. My partner had crawdad tails. Both meals came with fries, cole slaw, and hush puppies. The fish was hot and crispy, not at all greasy. The hush puppies were flavorful, as were the fries. Highly recommend.

Bubba's is closed for dining in, so we ordered our meal at the window and sat outside at their picnic tables, believe it or not, on the first day of December. They serve excellent catfish and lots of it, along with good hush puppies and fries. What a pleasure it was to enjoy such great catfish outside in the December sun at their picnic tables! After 40 years of tasting, we have not had better catfish in Hot Springs. The service is always prompt and friendly.

Before leaving Hot Springs made my second stop at Bubba's for lunch. Perfect timing because lunch rush and several other customers arrived to order food. Ordered catfish and shrimp with fries and coleslaw. Be advise no dining options there, so ate my food in the car somewhere else. The catfish was season and cooked excatly how I like it. The portion size was good. The shrimp were good, but not the same level as the catfish. The pricing was reasonable and guy working the window helpful. Be advise like many other dining options in Hot Springs (not sure if seasonal), closed on Mondays, but online was shown it was opened so came Monday and it was closed. Called Tuesday to make sure it was open. If you love good catfish and have somewhere to enjoy it, stop by for a meal

Never judge a book… we had been staying around the corner from Bubbas and said “why not”. Being tried and true fish and chip lovers, experiencing the best of Bondi Australia to London England. Bubba does it right. We got the Catfish and Fried shrimp dinners. The batter was tasty, fish and shrimp fresh. French fries top notch. And the oil they fry it was light and no after taste. This is a must stop in Hot Springs. Abit out of the way but worth seeking out. Not far from downtown Bathhouse Row. Do it. Just do it.

Visiting in Hot Springs and decided to give it a try. The portion size of fish, shrimp, and fries were really good for the price. The hushpuppies were way way too small. There is no dine-in option, but that's ok if you've got a place to eat. One thing I did notice is that their menu pricing has changed from what is posted on the internet. Just a little higher, but very reasonable.

We got the 10 piece catfish special with fries and coleslaw. Everything was cooked well. Delicious?
Perfect spot. Just the places looking for. I travel for work and always looking for a local spot that's serves great food. My truck is almost bigger than this place. Food to go. But 5 star. I doubt you can find better food close to the price. We will be regulars. Here for next 2 months working.

Great little spot. Traveling for work. Always like to find those local gems. This is one of them. Great food. No dining in spot all take out. But 5 star fish, shrimp, and. Crawfish tails. Be hard to find place better priced and food. We will be back again. Couldn’t eat entire dinner.
