We love to eat seafood at our house, all year long. But especially during Lent each year because that is when you can find some awesome Fish Fry Dinners to attend. Fish Fry Season is upon us and to help you find the perfect place for a fish fry dinner on Fridays during Lent we asked local organizations to tell us about their events and put together a Northern Kentucky & Cincinnati Fish Fry Listings post. There is nothing like going to a Fish Fry during the Lent, especially in our region. There are many organizations on both sides of the river that serve up fish fry dinners on Fridays during Lent, and they all seem to have their own unique spin on things that makes them special. Not all Fish Fry Dinners serve up just fried fish, some have other menu options for you, and many offer a bake sale to top off your meal. This list will be a great resource if you love fish fry dinners, and maybe it will even help you find somewhere new to dine. Keep in mind that most of these Fish Fry dinners are to support a local organization, school or charity, so there’s all the more reason to hit one up. You’d be getting out of cooking dinner AND helping someone in your community! Sounds like a win-win to us!
**Note, this information was all supplied to us and to our knowledge was correct when published. Due to winter weather on any given weekend though it would be wise to double check to make sure the Fish Fry you are attending is still open.
