Greater St Louis Fish Fry Map 2015


The BEST and dare I say ORIGINAL Fish Fry Map is updated for 2015! All I'm going to say is, I started this because there was no site on the internet that compiled all the fish frys in one place. I'm sure there will be a lot of them this year, because ours is super popular. I skimmed all the parish websites and bulletins for the latest details, but it's certainly possible that I missed some! If you would like your Fish Fry included, please comment with dates, times, and, if possible, a menu!


A note on dates: For the purposes of the blog, Lent is from Ash Wednesday (2/18) until Maundy Thursday (4/2). All Fridays of Lent means 2/20, 2/27, 3/6, 3/13, 3/20, and 3/27. Good Friday is noted separately from "All Fridays of Lent".

Year Round Fish Fry: St Ferdinand in Florissant. They have been raising money by frying fish for over 60 years!


Fish Fry I Would Travel For: St Joseph in Farmington. For one, it's all you can eat. For two, they have a different specialty side every week, and I am a sucker for fried okra.


The Best Blog For St Louis Fish Fry Reviews:  Look, I can't get to all of them, I just give you a list. When I am looking for a review, I go to Friday Night Fish.


It takes 15-20 hours to put this map together, and the average church website is blinding in its design. Please do me a solid and link to the website rather than the map when you share with your friends and family! Also, if your church has any vendor fairs during the year, I’d love to join you with Jewelscent and handmade products!
