Don't try to go here after 8pm, Google says they are open until 10pm every night however if you try to get food after 8pm they are already closed. The food is normally pretty good if you can catch them while they are open.

Food: was good, best of all it was fresh and hot.Service:Due to the line length at the drive thru I ordered inside to take out. The individual taking orders spoke to me as if I was an inconvenience, and pretty much threw my food to me. Past visits and this visit the location was just totally packed at drive thru and the Dine in. Since this location has always been great in all areas I just chalked it up to the absolute packed crowd.*** Cleanliness**** Very clean restaurant and restroom.Atmosphere: it was that of a very busy restaurant which it was.If you crave LJS..this is a good location.The small glitch in Service is the only reason I'm giving it a 4 (doesn't allow a 4.5)Parking: Plentiful parking at this location.The only issue with parking is that the drive thru line cuts it off a bit and it can be difficult to see the open parking lot.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessibility: definitely Easy Access Parking, with door, curb and sidewalk accessibility.

This is the only Long John Silvers I go to. The food is always hot and fresh and the place is always clean. Every time I have gone they seem to have plenty of staff and everything is served quickly.Kid-friendliness: Kids meal options available

My order was wrong after verifying it multiple times even before driving away. Does not replace the incorrect order only sends out the part that’s missing. So now half the order is cold. No apologies for my order being wrong or having to come back. I thanked them and did not complain yet I felt as though I had inconvenienced them versus the other way around. While I’m running back and forth to get my husbands order corrected, my chilli cheese dog is getting soggy and cold as well. Which, turns out I wouldn’t have eaten anyway because she’s I’m not going to eat a hot dog with canned liquid cheese on it. All around waste of money with bad food and bad experience.

Closed again on a Sunday afternoon.. website says 10, sign on door says 8, and it's 5. What is going on?

Dirty tables and old folks. A kid who didn't know the menu taking orders. Food was above average tho. ? Everything hot or cold as it should be and tasty in a Long John Silvers way. Her cheeseburger was also good. Root beer floats are always good.

We went there for lunch today. We haven't been in a few years. The tables were dirty and there was a hair in one our meals. The staff looked at me like I was the problem. Not apologetic at all. I got a refund and will not go back.

Closed at 3pm on Sunday. The crackhead manager was in her van smoking a pipe. So ya. Never again. Shame on you long John silvers
