Exceptional pub environment. Good food, very good service. On the Lake Erie shore.

Took an out of town friend in for a late dinner. I recommend the hoak burger or chicken wing sandwich. He went for the burger, said it was the best burger he ever had, I agreed.

Hoak’s was such a cool place to visit right on Lake Erie. I had the chicken dinner and a bowl of their French onion soup. The soup was pretty good, a little too much pepper. The chicken was meh. Their blue cheese is homemade and very good. There aren’t really any healthy options at this restaurant. The service was pretty good. Sat right away and got our food right away. It was cool seeing all the photos on the walls of the history of the restaurant.

Even on a cold rainy day, we had a great time. Staff was friendly and food was very good. I can imagine on a hot and sunny day, this place would be mobbed

We enjoyed this restaurant so much that we ended up eating there twice! The view of the sunset over Lake Erie was beautiful, and the food and service were very good. I liked that they would allow you to have a baked potato instead of fries. We had both fried and broiled items, and the batter on the fried items was light and crispy. Overall, just a good experience all around.

Hometown Buffalonians returned for a wedding after a half dozen years away. Many food attractions were on our list (Polish Village, Bar Bill, Ted’s, Chef’s, Illio DiPallos, Blasdell Pizza, Anchor Bar, etc.) and none of them disappointed but one—Hoak’s in Hamburg. The fish fry meals were mushy, tasteless and not near what it was in the past. Sides were pretty much the same. Would never return opting rather for the Matthew Glab VFW Post on Fridays. For a little over $100 for three, we were very disappointed.

Excellent fish fry! Looking forward to coming back when the weather is warmer so we can sit outside and enjoy being right on the lake.

Usually come here every time I come in to town. If it was any more “on the lake” it would be IN the lake, so the view is amazing. Beef on Weck was excellent!
See you next time!

The Haddock Fish fry was terrific.

A simple phone call asking if there was a wait made us decide to pass on this place. The rudest employee ever answered the phone. I will never spend one dime there.
