Long John Silver's Menu Prices (2026)

Long John Silver's is the largest quick-service seafood chain in the United States, built on battered and fried Alaska pollock, hushpuppies and crispy batter shavings the chain calls crumblies. It occupies a niche almost no other national chain competes in: fried seafood at fast food prices.

The value structure runs on the Fish & More platters and the family meals. Because portion counts drive price, the eight-piece and twelve-piece family boxes dramatically undercut ordering individual platters for a group.
