Coleman's Fish Market


 


 
 
Coleman's Fish Market has been a famous landmark in Wheeling for as long as I can remember.  That's why it's so surprising that I've never been there before!  This is a true fish market with a good selection of fresh fish to take home, and also a food counter where you can order a variety of sandwiches and sides but I went for the fish!  This is a place where you place your order at the counter and wait pick it up, and seat yourself.
 
 
We ordered a couple of fish sandwiches, and couldn't resist getting the onion rings.  The fish is served on plain white bread (think Wonder bread) and is perfectly fried, golden brown.
 

 

The sandwich was very good, although I'm accustomed to a much larger portion...If you look through this blog, you will see that I really love the traditional Pittsburgh fish sandwiches which tend to be huge!  That said this is a tasty sandwich and I wouldn't hesitate to stop again whenever I'm in the area. 

Coleman's is in downtown Wheeling in an area called Centre Market.  The building also houses a few other eatery's and shops and makes for a pleasant afternoon.
