One of the former recipients of the Bloomer Moose Lodge Fish Fry is Curtie Cares–Hope for the Homebound. Pictured in this file photo, from left, Curtie Harrison, president and founder of Curtie Cares, accepts a check from Brian Yohnk, administrator of the Bloomer Moose Lodge for the profits of the Fish Fry on Friday, Oct. 2, 2020.
The Moose Lodge will resume our Friday night fish fries on Friday, Feb. 19. Because of the continued threat of Covid-19, the fish fry will be To Go Style only.
As in the past couple of years, proceeds from the Moose’s Friday fish fries will be donated to local clubs and organizations.
Bloomer Moose Lodge administrator, Brian Yohnk, said, “One hundred percent of the profits from the open to the public event is donated to a different club or organization each week. We have donated over $15,000 in the past two years.”
Orders for the “to go style” fish fry will be taken over the phone. The phone lines will open at 3 p.m. each Friday to take orders, with the earliest pick up time being 4 p.m. and serving until 8 p.m. The Moose Fish Fry menu can be found on the “Bloomer Moose” FaceBook page. The Moose fish fry serves Cod, either deep fried in our special recipe beer batter or broiled, with or without your choice of lemon pepper, garlic, dill, or cajun seasoning. They also serve jumbo shrimp, broiled or deep fried, 21 shrimp, or a 10–12 oz. Walleye that can be deep fried, broiled or pan fried. Each meal comes with our homemade coleslaw, a Chrissy’s Bloomer Bakery dinner roll, and your choice of baked potato, crinkle cut French fries or Brew City beer battered fries. Each meal is also served with a different dessert each week. They also offer burgers, chicken tenders and macaroni and cheese.
