Aunt Catfish’s On The River is a Port Orange gem for more reasons than just having scrumptious seafood options.
First and foremost, you can pull up to this riverside spot in whatever watercraft you’re adventuring on, whether it be pontoon, fishing boat, or kayak.
Depending on when you visit, there will be different menu options to choose from. One of the award winners, however, is their Sunday brunch, complete with a hot bar and everything!
But if you visit outside of brunch hours, then you’ll have quite a few options to consider. A fan favorite for many is fresh seafood paired with the all-you-can-eat Fish Camp Fixins, which include baked beans, potato salad, fresh cornbread, cheese grits, and more.
Just make sure you save room for dessert because beyond the Key Lime Pie and famous cinnamon rolls, the Boat Sinker Pie is an Aunt Catfish’s original. Enjoy gooey homemade fudge pie topped with coffee ice cream, and dipped in a hard-shell chocolate coating.
