I purchased a $20 coupon from a local radio station. Having worked at a radio stations for years, I am familiar with something they call "trade out." advertising in which they exchange advertising for these coupons. However, when I tried to use the coupon at the VFW, the guy in charge told me he never got any money out of this so he would not accept it. As I was trying to explain to him how trade-outs work, he started raising his voice to me, continuously saying, "Listen to me! Listen to me!" I told him he received advertising in exchange for this coupon. He said he didn't. Basically the guy stole free advertising from the radio station by refusing to accept the coupon. This place has always been poorly run by people who have no business sense. But people would overlook this because of the good food. My parents used to eat at this place every Friday. When I came of age, I also frequented the place. However I seldom go to this place any more because over the years, the food quality has gone down and the customer service has become very bad. Years back, people would wait at the bar for a table to open up. Now, half the bar was empty and there were a number of open tables at 6:00 on a Friday evening. How sad to see how far this place has fallen. This alone is reason enough for me to never go there again, but the absolute lack of professionalism of this so-called manager is the reason for this review so that I can save others from making the same mistake I made. Trust me, there are plenty of good fish fries in the area. Don't waste your time on this one. As it turns out, another local establishment earned my business that night. i walked out. Here's a lesson in economics... since they refused to honor my $20 coupon that I paid for, they lost the sale, they lost my business, and they will probably lose more business because of my review.

If you are like me and came here when you were younger and it was an experience that you remember fondly, avoid this place now. There are no nice older ladies waitressing who know what they are doing. The place isn't full and people waiting loudly in the bars, though people are waiting for tables even when 1/3 of the place is seated. You can't see into the kitchen anymore. The perch was terrible and the it was the lightest color I have ever seen perch which is probably why I had stomach issues later that evening along with my boyfriend. The very young hostesses were goofing around the whole time and were only 6 feet away being unprofessional, dancing around, rapping, being extremely loud, making obnoxious pages to bring people waiting back from the bar. I understand having fun at a job, but it shouldn't be at the expense of the customers experience. I wish I would have preserved my memory of this place and not gone here. What a shame.

We really enjoy the VFW. The staff is always friendly. The food is very good with a nice selection for Friday fish night.
