    The Wild Alaska Pollock Sandwich is a favorite among regulars, and normally comes topped with tartar sauce and pickles. For a spicier spin on the classic meal, try swapping out the tartar sauce for their Baja taco sauce. [1]
    • You can also substitute any sauce with Malt Vinegar or Cocktail Sauce.
    • In hybrid locations that mash Long John Silvers with A&W or Taco Bell, you can also ask for Ketchup, Hot Sauce, Ranch, or Honey Mustard to add to your sandwich.

    Whether you call them crumbs, crunchies, or crispies, these fried bits are Long John Silver’s best-kept secret. Crumblies are fried bits of batter that come with all of their fried food dishes, and the restaurant staff is trained to treat them like a free unofficial side item. [3] Just ask for extra Crumblies the next time you order!
    • Dip your chicken or fish in whatever dipping sauce you’d like and then dip it into your crumbs for a crispy crunchy bite every time.

    While Long John Silver’s hushpuppies are delicious on their own, you can take them to the next level by asking for them to be rolled in cinnamon sugar. Not every Long John Silver’s will be able to make this request, but if you have a combo LJS-Taco Bell restaurant near you, prepare for an explosion of soft, cinnamon-y goodness. [7]
    • Long John Silver’s served Cinnapups for a limited time in 2018, but if you missed the hype, don’t worry! This hack is virtually a replica of the popular bite-sized treat.
