    My whole family loves Babe’s! Get there early on Saturdays because when they run out of fish they’re out. Huge portions and affordable. 10/10 ⭐

    It’s perfect. Price, flavor, preparation, portion size, and experience all 10/10. The box in the photo was $6. I can only go once a month when I drive through the area, but I’m stopping every time.

    They will fill you up great food, haven't gone in a while only cuz the lady doesn't like fish, but I just remember it's definitely worth the money and a must spot to go to if you haven't tried it, on your right right across from the pony before you get to the bridge

    One of those places you drive by and don't even notice. But I'm thankful we noticed it this time! The BEST fried catfish! The portions were huge, price is right and food is cooked fresh to order!

    We loved the food here! It was hot and fresh and delicious. Ordered the fish sandwich and chicken sandwich with the large order of cajun fries. Everything was soo good. And the service was great. Thank you guys!!!

    Always love me some Babes Fish Wagon. Under new ownership, same great fish. Me....... I have a little denture issue and asked them to not fry mine quite so crisp, and they accommodated me perfectly. It was so nice I gave them a shout out on social media!
