Scully’s Seafood

Scully’s Seafood – Easton, PA
Let me reel you in real quick because this place hooked me hard.

A friend who knows the Easton food scene way better than I do pointed me toward Scully’s, and I’m officially indebted to him. From the outside, it’s the kind of unassuming spot you’d walk past unless you were on a mission. Just a little shop with a hanging sign, nestled beside another restaurant. But inside? Oh boy it’s a different story.

The vibe is simple and straight to the point. Up front, there’s a massive ice chest showing off the day’s fresh catch like a seafood runway, and the menu? Small but mighty. It changes based on what they’ve hauled in fresh which is exactly how you know you’re in for something good.

I ordered the breaded haddock with fries, plus their homemade cocktail and tartar sauces. The couple running the place (husband and wife, I’m guessing) were super friendly and casually let me know they’re cash-only but pointed out the ATM across the way like pros. Respect.

Fifteen minutes later, I was back at work cracking open the box, and man… I didn’t know fish could do that to me. Light, crispy, fresh like it had just leapt out of the ocean and politely asked to be fried. The smell alone turned my coworkers into sea scavengers, circling my desk asking where it came from.

And let’s talk about those sauces because wow. I’d put that cocktail sauce on a shoe and still go back for seconds. Same goes for the tartar. I dunked, dipped, and devoured my way through the tray like I hadn’t eaten in days. They even threw in fresh lemon wedges that took the whole thing up to seafood nirvana.

Scully’s didn’t just serve me lunch they ruined other fish places for me. I would highly recommend this spot if you’re in Easton. Just make sure to bring cash and an appetite.

I have been going to this market since it opened and everything I’ve ever gotten has been top shelf. Since eating their shrimp I have yet to buy a supermarket shrimp, its like night and day. If you need a meal cooked, Chris and Paula will do that too. Their homemade coleslaw is excellent. Great people and great seafood, can’t beat it.
