Comment: The sun was shining and it was finally Friday. It was essentially the perfect day to take a drive out to Dane for the nearly-perfect Fish Fry at Peg & Doc’s.
The 2-piece lunch special goes for a mere $9.00 and since I know the cod is so good I added an extra piece for a couple bucks more. The fish fried in a flash and looked incredible when it met the bar top. I grabbed a huge squeeze of tartar and wasted no time getting down to business.
As expected, this cod was on point - light and flaky with a devilishly crispy, well-seasoned, fried chicken-like breading. I crushed all three pieces without batting an eyelash and could have eaten three more. No lie. The aforementioned tartar is thick and bold and pairs perfectly with the fish. Some of the best tartar around for sure.
Not many places offer hash browns with their fish and if they do it rarely happens at lunch. P&Ds knows better and their superb shreds are seemingly the side of choice (I saw a bunch around the bar). Their cook is a master of the flattop and kicks out perfectly slick yet crispy spuds each and every time. A side of creamy coleslaw rounds out the plate and is inviting without being overbearing. The is no bread served with the lunch plate.
An hour round trip for a 30 minute meal might seem crazy to some, but for me it makes perfect sense when the Fish Fry is this delicious and the deal this smokin’. Of course, that deal is even sweeter when you add a BOGO from the MadCity Cocktails book! Overall, we highly recommend this Fish Fry and think there’s simply no better way you can spend nine beans. This doctor is definitely in.www.facebook.com/pages/Peg-Docs-Sports-Bar-Grill/104962512879752?sk=wall
