The Captain D’s quick casual seafood restaurant chain has added wild caught batter dipped fish from Alaska to the menu. Launched on June 1 across the United States, the initiative reflects its commitment to offering premium seafood that is responsibly sourced and served at an affordable price point.
“Our guests know Captain D’s for its great seafood, generous portions and incredible value. This launch reinforces all three,” said Phil Greifeld, chief executive officer of the Nashville, Tennessee-headquartered chain. “By using only wild caught fish straight from the icy waters of Alaska for all of our hand battered fish items, we’re making a significant investment in quality while staying true to the approachable, satisfying dining experience families have counted on for decades.”
The rollout is part of a broader campaign focused on premium high quality seafood and US-based sourcing. The latest promotion features pollock that grows and reproduces naturally in the ocean, is harvested by Alaskan fisherman and processed by Trident Seafoods to ensure consistency across restaurants nationwide.
“Sustainable sourcing matters,” said Janet Duckham, chief supply chain officer at Captain D’s. “Wild caught fish from Alaska is recognized around the world for its quality and sustainability. The fishermen adhere to rigorous standards.”
The launch includes three $5.99 full meal deals, as detailed below:
• Two-piece Fish and Fries Meal – A pair of wild caught batter dipped fish portions served with a side dish and two hush puppies
• The Sampler – One piece of wild caught batter dipped fish, one chicken tender, three butterfly shrimp, a classic side of choice and two hush puppies.
• One-piece Fish and Two-piece Chicken Meal – One piece of wild caught batter dipped fish and two chicken tenders served with a side dish of choice and two hush puppies.
The wild caught pollock from Alaska is also included with orders including The Ultimate Seafood Platter, Giant Fish Sandwich Combo and Two-Piece Fish & Clams Strips Meal.
Founded in 1969, Captain D’s operates more than 530 restaurants in 23 US states and three countries. In addition to wild caught Alaska batter dipped fish and chicken, the menu features grilled items like shrimp, salmon and whitefish, plus hush puppies, fries, loaded baked potatoes, green beans, side dishes and desserts.
