This is a place always go when I want shrimp and fish. I love the way its prepared. Meals I order always have two sides. And made to order, nothing is pre-made and served after sitting around for who knows how long. Much better value and food than P__p_y_s for sure.And staff always treats customers with friendly respect.Love It

I'm a long-time Long John Silver's fan, but with none of them in the area I decided to try Captain D's here on a long drive through the area. I was treated promptly and very kindly, it was a cozy and humble place but you could tell the locals enjoyed a Sunday supper here on a regular basis and the clientelle reflected it. I was very VERY pleased with the basic fish fry, and the okra was perfect with the Louisiana hot sauce on each of the tables. I plan to make this stop again when I'm hungry and driving through the area.Parking: Dedicated lot

I've been a loyal customer at this establishment for over 15 years, yesterday was my last visit. I was confronted by an employee for getting their carpet door mat by the front door dirty. When she saw the door mat she yelled out so the entire store could hear "who got my door mat dirty ?!" I ignored her not willing to engage in such childish banter. When I walked to the front counter to get my food she confronted me angrily and loudly saying "you was the one who got my door mat dirty, what's wrong with you ?!". I proceeded to tell her that I work in construction and the floor mat is there for wiping dirty feet. She disagreed and I told her "if I had not wiped my feet I would have tracked dirt through the entire store", and she got even more angry. During this interaction the other employee did nothing but chuckle the entire time and the store manager/owner who has worked there since I first started visiting this store 15 years ago was making orders in the back (he was visible through the kitchen pass/window opening) and did not say a word to his employee. You just lost yourself a loyal customer because of your loud mouthed childlike employee that you refused to correct. Good luck with your business, you'll need it with the way you let your employees talk to customers.

The food & service were great, but the atmosphere with the workers talking loudly & laughing loudly was very unprofessional. My mother (70+ yrs old) was with me & she was very upset with the way the staff were conducting themselves. The food & the quickness of service was amazing.

I don't live in Durham but I don't mind driving to get a Captain Ds plate. My favorite Uncle passed away 8 years ago and that was his favorite place to eat when we would visit him so eating here is very special to me. They always make the food fresh and are friendly.
Very friendly staff, made us feel very welcome, and excellent value for money as fast food goes. Have to knock off a star because I ordered the $5.99 shrimp plate and they gave me the whitefish instead, but I was indifferent so I decided to not say anything.
