Holy Trinity - 3519 N 14th St, St. Louis, MO 63107

Wayfinding / Greening


(2 out of 4 fishes)  Holy Trinity is easy to find - it's an architectural beacon with its well known twin spires rising majestically in the Hyde Park neighborhood of St. Louis near I-70.  The fish fry is in the basement, and can be a little difficult to locate for a first time visitor.  Ordering was simple.  This was only the second week for Holy Trinity as they were starting a fish fry for the first time in 20 years, so a few logistics were still being worked in terms of ordering and getting food.  Styrofoam plates.

Food


Very good catfish nuggets.  Sides were simple, but done well.  Nice touches such as  Marconi bread and Brazie’s spaghetti sauce from the Hill.  Choices include catfish, Cod, and baked tilapia.  Several sides to choose from.

Value


Good value.  $8 plates that includes two sides and dessert.  $5 for sandwiches.  $1 for drinks.

Atmosphere


Holy Trinity is a beautiful church.  The fish fry is in the basement, which has super high ceilings.  A cool space.  Friendly volunteers.

Overall
3 out of 4
Holy Trinity is a lunch time / dinner fish fry serving from 11:00am - 6:30pm, so it's a good option if you are looking for a lunch time fish fry.  Holy Trinity was starting a fish fry for the first time in 20 years.  They did several things very well - great fried catfish and nice touches such as Marconi bread and Brazie's spaghetti sauce.  The downside was that they were still working out some of the logistics of getting food orders efficiently processed.  But once they get the logistics worked out, Holy Trinity will be a great lunch-time option.  Plus, you can check out some of the great redevelopment going on in the Hyde Park neighborhood.

Year End Reviews

Sometimes it is hard to compare fish fries from year to year. Comparing that Cod from 2014 to 2008 can be a little tough. With that in mind, below is a yearly re-cap for each of the following years. We got a little busy in 2015, then 2017-2019 went by in a blur, so we are missing a few years, so sorry!

Fan Poll Winners - Best Fish Fry

Every year Friday Night Fish hosts a fan poll to crown a yearly fan favorite Fish Fry. It's a two step process with Round 1 selecting five finalists, and Round 2 voting from the final five to crown the yearly fan champion. So get ready every year for the annual poll and get your supporters voting for your favorite fish fry! We had some voting "irregularities" in 2014, so we discontinued the poll (for now).
