Schermerhorn's Seafood, nestled at 224 Westfield Rd, Holyoke, MA, is a beloved institution that has consistently earned praise for its fresh seafood offerings and casual, family-friendly atmosphere. Temporarily closed for renovations, this restaurant is already missed by its loyal patrons who fondly recall its no-frills dining experience, reminiscent of seaside shacks. Customers like Alexandra Tremblay commend the generous portion sizes and unbeatable prices, especially for standout dishes like twin lobster meals and fried fish—a reflection of the establishment’s commitment to value. The dining setup, characterized by convenient ordering and laid-back seating, allows for a relaxed meal with the family. Reviews also highlight the impressive variety of dishes, from seafood salads to Cajun shrimp wraps, ensuring something for everyone, including a solid kids menu. The addition of self-serve soft drinks and beer and wine options complements the meal, making it ideal for a casual night out. As renovations progress, fans eagerly await the chance to return to a place that feels like home, where the ambiance is lively, the food is fresh, and the nostalgia of the old Pac-Man game adds a unique charm. Schermerhorn’s Seafood remains a testament to the spirit of local dining and community support.

Reviews For Schermerhorn's Seafood-TEMPORARILY CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS

Schermerhorns is always a great stop when you're looking for seafood for an affordable steal but no frills. They basically have sit down seating in a glorified fish market-type scenario. Great prices and deals especially on market items like twin lobster meals or steamers. Unbelievable serving sizes for the fried fish meals. Also a great place to bring kids since it's a relaxed and somewhat noisy atmosphere so kids blend in well and they have a kids menu if you ask for it. Soft drinks are serve yourself and they have beer and wine service to go with your fish-camp night out. Always nice to support a local business that has lasted through the years!

Their seafood and lobster prices are always the lowest in the area. There is a restaurant and ice cream area as well, with plenty of indoor and outdoor tables. No-frills dining.

You come here for the great food. Schermahorns is an institution, and like any good seafood shack on the coast you can get a great meat - and not just fried food. Great food, good portions and good prices. We had the twin lobsters, Cajun shrimp wrap, stuffed haddock, kids hot dog and kids cheese pizza. Every single one was a hit with who ordered it, and it was just right. When you enter the restaurant you just order with the cashier at the front, pay and take a number to your table. A short time later someone will bring your food. As a hidden bonus, there is a old Pac Man game in the back. Bring 2 quarters for a play

I haven’t been here in years but I went with my girlfriend and her grandmother. We had a great meal and we got our meals very fast, portions were large and food was so good. Highly recommend going with a lived one.

The seafood selection is awesome, and the prices are fair. I ate some oysters and lobster right there on the spot! It was so fresh and tasty. Thank you!
