Been coming here since I was a little girl. A must eat for vacationers. I always order the Ultimate Chicken Pucker . The "sensual sauce" is awesome! Don't forget to buy a "World Famous" T-shirt!!

Lesa Smith-Barber

We love this place and eat here every time we visit the area. A great place. I didn't have any luck with the Front Flip promotion app though.

Buddy

Great fried pickles ! Also make sure you try the crayfish claws! For those of you youngsters visiting Destin, one night a week during the summer, Fudpuckers transforms into an under 17 night club !!!

Irvin Keith

Food was great and service was even better. It’s a very popular place so the wait times can be a little crazy but it’s worth it!!

Sallie Milner

Crowded but well worth the aggravation, This is definitely a tourist attraction but the food was good and kids really seemed to have a lot of fun.

marty boyzuck

Kitschy , but in a good way. Your results may vary... but the food was very, very good. Enjoy!

Carly McClanahan

The kids loved to playground . Very loud and the food is okay but i feel bad for the alligators with all the flashing cameras and kids hitting them in the face with food.. Boooo for cruelty to animals

Order the alligator tail!! Delicious!!!

Gail Hansche

Get a balloon for your kid. They will love it!

The gators outside were really fun to feed, but the food inside was nothing special. Not a single thing we ordered was very special.

Anna Johnson

Don't let them trick you into getting the bottle water it's $2.50!!!

Beckie Rutledge

Great place for kids. Bring your sharpie or you can buy one for $1 at the bar .

They have wifi but are not allowed to give out the password. Will not be back. That's absurd: your guests spend money yet you won't share? My cleaners even has free wifi !

Shauna Barnard

Fun but food pricy !

Great stuff to do for kids but food is not good and expensive . $92 for family of 4 for lunch ...would not go back

Carly Karas

So much fun!

Rob Menz

Commercialized seafood , seems like they are more interested in shirt sales. Was very greasy. Many better options around the area.

Brand Kroeger

You gotta see the live alligators

Zachary Bond

Good food but slow service

Amanda L

The food was gross. Clearly the only thing they're famous for is the t-shirt. I will never go here again.

Pope Anon

Mayor is el'douche

Carly Mackler

Skip this place. The service is slow, and the food isn't worth the money. It's a tourist trap.

Kyle Mickelson

Come to Fudpuckers to enjoy the atmosphere NOT the food. It is some of the worst I have ever had.
