“We had such a fun time at Fudpucker’s! My son absolutely loved the gator interactions—it was definitely the highlight of our visit. Everything was exciting and super engaging for kids. The food was great too—everything we ordered was delicious and made the whole experience even better. Emily, the photographer, was amazing! She was so kind, knew exactly what she was doing, and worked quickly while still capturing great moments. We really appreciated how smooth and easy she made everything. Overall, such a memorable and family-friendly place. We’ll definitely be back!”

“We’ve been here several times during the evening hours. But our first time experience at lunch was a bit disappointing. My food came out but my wife’s calzone came much later. Our waiter was hardly checking on us for refills and never apologized or even tell us the food would come out late. (Plus no bread or their special oil.) I know it was lunch, but my highlight was the bread. I don’t know if we will come for lunch for a while, but we will give it a chance for evenings. I even wrote a note on the receipt and left my phone#. But as yet have I received a call.”
