What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners rave about Krueger's Fish Market for its outstanding selection of fresh and smoked fish, with many calling it a yearly tradition. The whitefish and lake trout are particularly praised, and the convenience of the vacuum sealing service is a major plus. While the quality is consistently high, some reviews mention the smoked salmon being a bit dry and salty.
"I go up to Mackinaw every summer and I don't leave without going to Krueger's first! I love their smoked fish. I usually get the smoked white fish and smoked lake trout. I have bought the smoked salmon before but it's a little dry so I would mix it into a salad with mayo. I was just up there last week and I got a pound of white fish and a pound of the trout, stuck it in a cooler with ice and check my luggage. I'm home in Florida now enjoying fish everyday this week and I'm loving it!"

"I have been going there since I was a kid! My brother and cousin used to ride our bikes from the carp lake area just to get some smoked fish. Now I stop in when I am in the area. The best by far"
Lawrence Tailford
"So good I went back 20 minutes after the 1st visit and bought more to bring home on the plane to NC.
Smoked trout, Cajun jerky, pepper sticks! And whitefish pate!
Next time my carry on will be filled with this deliciousness!"
