6 Best Bars near Bernhards Bay

“This place is a little hidden gem. We seem to keep finding our way back here whenever we are on the lake. We pull up and hang out on the lake, it is so easy to get in and out here. One of us goes inside to place our order. Food takes long enough to enjoy a drink while we wait. The food has always been very good. We have had it all...turkey clubs, wings, burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, onion rings and nachos. The folks behind the bar are always friendly. A few times we even caught live music. So happy we found this place.“

“Fun food people nice place to go💕“

“If you’re looking for a cozy, welcoming spot with stunning views of Oneida Lake, mouthwatering food, and a hometown vibe that feels like you’re among friends—this is your place. Tucked along the lakeshore, this charming eatery strikes the perfect balance between casual comfort and quality dining. The menu is packed with delicious options, from appetizers to hearty entrees, and every dish feels thoughtfully made. The portions are generous, the flavors are spot-on, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality you get. What really makes this place shine, though, is the hospitality. Owners Melissa and Bob have created more than just a restaurant—they’ve built a place where everyone feels like a regular. Their warmth and attention to detail show in everything from the friendly staff to the consistently excellent service. This isn’t just a spot to grab a bite—it’s a destination worth making a trip for. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and stop in. Melissa will make sure you’re glad you did.“

“I've been passing the place for years but decided to stop in a few times recently. They have a half a dozen soft-tip dart boards and multiple hard tip boards. That was exactly what I was looking for. The beer is cold. The bartenders are easy on the eyes. The hot chicken sandwich is really good.“

“Always get great food and super friendly staff! Would highly recommend!“

“Thank you to the East Syracuse location for accommodating our large group earlier this month! With several tables, plenty of food orders, kids enjoying the games, and lots of movement and drink refills—it could’ve been a challenge. The staff handled it with smiles and excellent service. Thank you for welcoming our high school trap team!“
