best tartar sauce I've ever had & best coleslaw I've ever had! definitely recommend! I've never tried the fish bc I'm vegetarian but I'm sure that's good too

Doug's is the quintessential fresh fish place on either north shore Skaneateles Lake or at their Cortland place. Fries and rings are perfection, and the coleslaw is tasty, too. I was shocked at how good my battered shrimp tasted. Very fresh! Desserts look great though I didn't indulge. You'll never leave hungry. Plenty of seating in clean dining rooms. Plenty of staff to make hungry people, full happy people, fast.

Probably one of the best fish fries in central New york.

We stopped by Doug's every time we're driving through Cortland. Their fish and hand cut fries are historical and delicious! A great, casual atmosphere ☀️

My only complaint is that they are not located closer to my home!

Sad Day at Doug’s….
We are old fans from way back, including mobile takeout at our little Finger Lakes village, so when my chef hubby and I found ourselves in the vicinity the other day, we just HAD to stop. It was great to be greeted by the friendly lad behind the counter, and see the tartar sauce is still on point. Unfortunately, that where the comparison ended for us. Our old favorites, ordered to go to eat a few miles up the road, were a dismal shadow of meals past. The flaccid french fries were undercooked and unsalted. So too with our fondly remembered crispy fish - this, wilted and soggy, it had soaked its bottom bun. My personal favorite scallops had been demoted to scallop ‘chips’, with a few halves for consolation. Gone was our old Doug’s, and a sad thing that is. Had we not paid $50+tip for this conglomeration of imposters, it might have been forgivable, but the price was certainly not a reflection of our happily awaited supper. I guess they say, you can never go home again. Seems they are right. Hopefully, dear friends, you were having a rough afternoon (4:30). Here’s to crispier days ahead…

Good for more than just fish! Their chicken tenders are amazing and the mac n cheese is ooey gooey delicious. They fries are handcut and taste amazing. They also have an interesting assortment of ice cream sundaes that definitely hit the spot. I will say consistency of the sundaes varies, sometimes you get what you order sometimes you don't. For example the last 5x I've ordered sundaes I did not get what I ordered twice. Still worth it though ive lost out on money bc order was wrong. Overall a good place with good food and good people!
Best fish around. We drive 45 min. Just to have it.

Visited the To Go trailer at Jakes Ice Cream in Wampsville in Friday, Sep 20. I ordered and paid and as I was waiting, I went over to the ice cream counter where there was a Doug's Menu and prices dated today (20th)... .the prices listed at the ice cream counter were $7 less (scallop dinner), $4 lessfor (shrimp) and $2 for the fish. I purchased 1 scallop,shrimp,and fish dinner with extra shrimp....I paid $17 more and I brought it to the guys in the trailer attention and my concerns fell on deaf ears .......very disappointed
