The food is good, reasonably priced, and the sweet tea is awesome with a friendly service staff to boot! You can just get a burger and fries, or good seafood too. You can bring the kids, but I wouldn't recommend kids after 8PM. They have LIVE ALLIGATORS (up to five feet long) you can feed and one that hangs out for photo ops. Great gift shop located in the restaurant itself, and now next door, on the same property is a new ice cream and gift shop with lots of local talent displaying their wares for purchase. I'm doing my Christmas shopping there this year! Best of all... you can literally SIGN THE WALL! So bring a marker!

Our server, Paige, was awesome! She made it one of the best dinners we have had out in a long time! Especially with 2 small kids in tow!

EXCELLENT place!! Great food! Great Service! The atmosphere was laid back and so inviting! Guests were invited to sign anything in the restaurant (except the TV hah). Never once did I have to ask for anything, our server, Jamie, was amazing! Friendly staff willing to help with whatever or just sit and chat for a few! Would definately recommend for others to go there! The two of us ate lunch and walked out STUFFED for 23 dollars. The shop in the front was neat, just a little toursit spot with really neat stuff. Alligator pit was neat and was fun to feed them! Definately worth it every penny spent!! Will most definately visit again!

We heard and read that this place has great. Not only they weren't great they were dry, and tasteless. Wendy's makes a far better burger.

I have only tried their Big Bacon Cheese Burger and I have to say, it is sup-par. Like the other reviewers I would highly recommend only going for a couple of drinks and entertainment if possible.

This place is NOT a place to have a good meal! This place is a GREAT place to enjoy time with kids in the play area or with the gators. Have a drink and an appetizer, or at worst a sandwich. Don't waste your time on eating anything more! DO waste some hours here at night if you are single, and are looking for good drinks late night!

Been to Fudpucker's twice. The first visit was 2 yrs ago and found the food only ok and the service worse. We thought this trip we would give it another try. BIG MISTAKE. The food was even worse than I remembered. It definately was not fresh seafood and my husband's steak was only so so! Way overpriced for the quality of the food. The service was very lacking as well. I suggest you don't wast your time or money on this tourist trap!

Overpriced and terrible food...nothing fresh caught. Pet the gators and have a coctail; enjoyed the band. Very overratted..ask any local.

We had just arrived into town and was worn out by the drive. We decided that Fudpuckers looked fun for our 22 month old son, a place where he could run his nine hours in a carseat legs off. And that he did. We had a ball looking at all the aligators, we even fed one of them. We look lots of pictures. There is even a play area for toddlers that was great. We loved all the activited. The live music in the bar area was great. We finally got seated for the food and it was OK, I had a hamburger, it wasn't the greatest, my wife had the crawfish sandwich and it wasn't great either. Definately worth going to though for all the fun stuff to do!!

I've only been here to eat, but I do understand they have a great nightlife and lots of good local bands. If you want to eat here, it's aVERY cool place for kids! Our 7 yr old daughter LOVES this place. Live alligator pit, fun servers, great decorations, cool menu (it's a humor newsletter) and great food! Good luck finding the bathroom, though - that place is a maze!
