Freshly prepared fried fish and chicken at Mikes Fish And Chicken

Real Food. Real Flavor. No Compromises.

Mikes Fish And Chicken has been a cornerstone of the Covington food scene, serving up some of the crispiest fried fish and most flavorful chicken in the area. Located right on Madison Avenue, we've built our reputation one plate at a time — with fresh ingredients, bold seasonings, and recipes that keep customers coming back.

Every piece of fish is hand-selected and fried to a golden crunch, and our chicken is seasoned, battered, and cooked fresh daily. We don't do frozen, we don't do shortcuts. What you get is what you deserve — a meal that tastes like it was made with care.

"Best fried catfish I've had in the tri-state area, hands down. The batter is light, the fish is fresh, and the sides are incredible. This is my go-to spot every time."

"The fried chicken here is unreal — crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and that seasoning is something special. My whole family orders from Mikes every weekend now."
