We stopped in for lunch, waited 5 minutes for someone to seat us - no actual wait, not busy - just no service. We were finally seated inside, where it was incredibly warm and muggy, and no one ever came to our table. No water, no nothing. Servers were just walking by us, ignoring us. After 15 minutes we finally just left. Worst service EVER.

Amazing Atmosphere and the food is also Great along with the staff. It's been a family owned business for as long as I can remember, and I have lived here over 20 years in Fox Lake. Dockers has become a Landmark and a part of Fox Lake right off of Rt 12 and Grand Ave down town Fox Lake just a block west of the Light. Where else can you go for lunch and sit on a beautiful outdoor shaded deck and if your lucky watch a Cessana 172 or 2 land and come In and dock there aircraft for lunch and then fly off into the afternoon sunset. It's everything about it, not just the Great food and selection but the whole package. The Atmosphere the People the Beautiful Sunsets while having dinner also inside a very cozy air-conditioned seating area with a lounge area also. Once you give them a try, you will be back again it's a special place, not just a restaurant

Docker's was a great place for a private party! From the start, the owner was very accommodating and helpful. We had a group of about 30 people and were given the entire up stairs for a lunch time party. The view of the lake was super & really liked the white tablecloths. We pre-picked 5 menu items for guests to order from. Everything was great. We had trio appetizers, Ruben, burgers, Club sandwich & Greek Marinated chicken pita & Cesar salad. They were all delicious. They allowed us to bring our own desserts for a dessert table which was nice. I was worried when we were only provided one server, but she was amazing and had everything under control. The food was brought out in a timely manner, it went so smoothly!

They always advertise a Sunday brunch. We went up today to try it, and they were closed, with a note on the door saying "no brunch until Easter". Would have been nice to see that on their website before we got up there.

Had lunch there on a Thursday. Had wanted to go on Friday for the fish fry, but plans didn't work out for Friday. So as an alternative, I ordered the fish and chips. It was excellent and the portions were generous enough to bring home half for another dinner.

Good little spot right on the water. I bet in the summertime it would be amazing to eat outside on the patio. Unfortunately it was February when we went. Food was good and came out quick. No complaints about the service either.
