Great food ! The crawfish and Alligator po boy is amazing!

I took a friend from out of town here. Poppa's Wharf is open when other seafood places are closed. The cashier was polite and service was good. We had great boiled seafood. Crab legs and royal reds were delicious. My friend had never had royal red shrimp before and was blown away. The fried catfish were on point. I highly recommend Poppa's. I look forward to going back.

Always running great specials on seafood. I got crawfish today at an amazing price and was pleasantly surprised that it even came with celery, garlic and lemon. The taste, well, it was phenomenal! Would love to see one opened up closer to downtown Hattiesburg.

Upon arriving at this restaurant, which is nestled in a small shopping center, you may question the authenticity of the seafood. Once inside, the smell of fresh seafood overloads the olfactory senses and you feel reassured that your meal is going to be tasty. At this time, you are greeted by a friendly staff member, who politely explains the menu and will take your name for the order. Once seated with an ice cold beer (or beverage of choice), a staff member will call your name… at which time, happiness abounds as fresh delicious seafood is placed before you in plentiful portions. There is a nice self service area of butter, cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, napkins, and take away containers (which will come into play later). The staff also places a convenient bucket on the table for disposal of shells, corncobs, and likewise refuse. Upon devouring the feast set before you, the cheerful staff members will check on you and replenish your beer (or beverage of choice). After enjoying the delicious dishes, the sense of fullness will come upon you. You will ignore this first sense and continue to devour the tasty food before you… The second time this sense strikes, you will collect one of the aforementioned take away containers. In shorter words… I was in town on business and thoroughly enjoyed my visit to this establishment.

Had the 4lb special and the crawfish were AMAZING!! Very good size and full of flavor?

We enjoyed the crawfish, corn and potatoes and the $47.50 special was great!

The best place to buy seafood, especially the crawfish. I had my birthday party this past Saturday and bought two sacs of crawfish that was very large. I have used Poppa’s seafood since they have been open. Will continue using them.Thanks, Mark

The BEST seafood around. FRESH taste! New Orleans style! Can’t find seafood like it anywhere but here north of picayune! ?

We bought a sak of crawfish this morning very pleased. Good service too. ?

Ate here last on president’s day, and the crawfish were not good. Very small and half of them were overcooked mush. It’s sad because I used to love the crawfish from here. The salad was pretty good though!
