Kruse's Paint Creek Tavern Reviews
Great burgers and clam chowder. Sat outside by Paint Creek.
We were looking for a place to have lunch on the water. The patio table overlooking the creek was lovely. We shared the turkey reuben, delicious. We had a grouper taco as well which was amazing. I also had a cup of their James Beard award winning clam chowder. It was the best I’ve ever had, and my wife who doesn’t like chowder enjoyed it as well. We will be back!
First time here and a great experience. Our server Ryley was fantastic, very helpful & attentive, great service! Love the atmosphere, we sat right near the outdoor deck so had a taste of the deck without the heat from the warmer than average day. Everyone loved their food, my Knuckle sandwich was absolutely delicious and it'll be hard to try anything else when I go back but there is plenty more on the menu I want to try. The Golden Arches burger, the perch sandwich, the clam chowder...read full review
