Freighters Eatery & Taproom

Experienced the new soup and salad bar. It is awesome. The soups beef vegetable and cream and potato were delicious.

The servers were excellent and friendly, but the food was terrible. We ordered fried calamari, which arrived cold and rubbery. The server offered to speak to the manager about removing it from our bill. The manager ultimately decided to take $5 off our total.

We also ordered Fish and Chips and Parmesan-crusted whitefish with a double order of vegetables. The Fish and Chips were soggy, and the Whitefish was overly salted; one bite was enough to turn my stomach. On the positive side, the vegetables were delicious.

The management seemed indifferent to the guests and tyrannical towards the staff. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Freighters accommodated half off my son's hockey team with their parents this weekend. They did a great job getting 20ish of us in last minute. The food was great and amazing atmosphere.

Service was good. Sarah was kind and attentive. We had a great seat by the window and food came out timely. The short rib was as dry as a bone. Barely edible. For the price I expected much better.

Had the California chicken sandwich and was not disappointed!
It's a big sandwich, it's double stacked and delicious, the fries were fresh, house ranch was very tasty and the service was great highly recommend if you're in the area.

Had the fish and chips tonight. It couldn't of been worse. Very fishing tasting indicating it was not fresh. I've never had worse perch.
Husband had the short rib dinner. The beef was over cooked and very very dry. And tough. The gravey was to salty to enjoy. It will depend on how this is handled if I ever return or give a good review to friends and family.

Definitely more expensive than it should be, and some of the wait staff is very snooty.

The Atmosphere is fantastic then it goes down hill quickly. Starting with the hostess that walked so fast in front of us we had to find her at our table. The Lobster Pappardelle lacked lobster...I would guess less than a ounce at the most. A few pieces of end claw meat...then very end. Lacked flavor. Very disappointing. The NY strip was fatty and perhaps the worst steak we have ever had. Another disappointment. On the upside the Brisket Fries were great...I would stick to an appetizer and drink here and find dinner elsewhere. Hope they can figure the kitchen out.

This place is beautiful - inside and out. I had no idea it existed before now. Views of the river, ships going by, we even saw a wedding next to the patio. Food was also excellent. Glad I swapped the chips out for fries.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu had good options. They brought a highchair outside to the patio for us.
