100%Atlantic Cod
The Moby Dick difference
Light, crispy, and never hiding under batter.
Every fish sandwich and dinner we serve starts with real cod. We give it a thin cracker-crumb coat and fry it to order — so you taste the fish, not the breading.
- Cod in every fish sandwich and fish dinner — no substitutions
- Cracker-crumb crust, not heavy batter
- Fried in cottonseed/canola oil with 0g trans fat
- Fast, friendly counter service — in and out on your lunch break

Cod — in every fish sandwich and every fish dinner. It's lightly breaded in a cracker-crumb crust and fried fresh, never sitting under a heat lamp.

Do you have options that aren't fish?
Yes — chicken tenders and tender dinners, chicken sandwiches, bratwurst, livers, plus sides like mac & cheese, kale greens, fried okra and fried green tomatoes (seasonal).
Is there parking?
Yes, we have a free lot right next to the building reserved for Moby Dick customers.
