“My daughter and I came in this afternoon after volunteering for the iron man we were starving… we sat at another downtown restaurant for over 20 minutes being completely ignored while everyone around us was being served so we ended up leaving and coming here… we sat outside a women greeted us at the door apologized and said there was only one server outside so it might be a minute.. which was amazing considering the last place we were at. We had a guy server can’t remember his name but he was great.. even though we did wait for a minute it was okay because we were acknowledged and not ignored. Server was super friendly and nice the food was DELICIOUS! 10/10 experience, we will definitely be back!“

“Best bar on the island. Amazing staff!“

“Best cocktails with the best bartender! Love this place!“

“This is an old school neighborhood bar with excellent food. Thurssday's Wing Night is a hidden gem with Candra on the fryer knowing exactly how to make them and Ashley serving up awesome drinks. Worth the price, drive, and if you suck as person the attitude!“

“Great food. Our server was by far the most cheerful and way going server we’ve had in the longest time. She and my daughter immediately bonded over shoes.
Mexican Corn Queso Dip was great. Chips are fresh, had the Fiesta Rice Bowl, excellent taste and very filling.“

“Got blown off the lake and found Jamestown tavern to be the perfect place to get out of the wind. Enjoy delicious loaded tots and ice cold beer. Buffi the bartender was on top of her game. We will be back.“

“My family and I come out on the occasional Saturday, usually sundays for rides on our Harleys. We patronize most bar and grills along the way. Never have we been in fights, arguments, or any type of disturbances, but yesterday I encountered 6 police officers and two undercover lady cops leading me out of this place due to a customer saying I was armed and dangerous. The most embarrassing thing due to us having family in from Columbus and being treated like we did something wrong.i will say the owner definitely 👍🏽 stood her ground and made sure the police knew we was welcome there also let them know we are not a disruptive group thank u so much we appreciate you … and the security guard was in shock considering he talked to everyone of us and only had good things to say about our group. But the establishment gets 100 stars from me“

“Was there last week for the first time and loved everyone that worked there. Super nice and fun people!!!“

“My friend and I were out enjoying this fall day. We stopped in for a festive fall drink. An Autumn Glow and a frozen expresso martini our bartender Cat was an absolute rockstar. The food was fabulous too.“

“Had a great experience hoisting a birthday party here! The food was catered by them and was fantastic. We were able to set up early in the day, and the girls working did everything to accommodate us! It’s very laid back and I’m appreciative of the experience! Thank you so much!“

“not sure if they have food, never ate there, but awesome swim up bar, great view of the lake, good place to get away from the families with kids and relax

Kid-friendliness: not kid friendly, you have to be 21 and show ID to enter the area“

“I love the atmosphere here & the Owner is amazing. Best Soup & Salad Bar in Sandusky“

“Delicious food, a great wine and cocktail selection and a beautiful atmosphere! The Canoe Club is one of our absolute favorites and a must stop if you are in the area! We ate there last night and we were waited on by Ally, who was one of the best servers we have had! Thank you Canoe Club for always being a fantastic dining experience!“

“Love it when it’s open. Beer in a boot and great food. Fun atmosphere.“

“We visited the Red Moon on my first trip to Put-In-Bay this weekend. The drinks are very creative and delicious. The atmosphere was very dark and moody. The music wasn’t too loud. It was easy to chat. The staff was excellent. I would highly recommend this speakeasy, especially if you’re not looking for a party place but more of a relaxing drink.“

“Had never been before and were cruising by on the lake. Found this place on google maps and decided to check it out and see if we could dock and dine. Yes! We have a 42’ LOA and draft 3.5’ and they had no issue finding us a spot on a busy Saturday night. Beware, tight maneuvering required so maybe not for the faint of heart captain. Good food, good drinks, great atmosphere and live music. We very much would recommend.“

“Visited last weekend and Reel Bar was the crowd favorite amongst our crew. We asked the kids what their favorite food/drink was and they all said their food (royal red shrimp, chicken sandwich, lobster rolls, and the french fries especially) was at Reel Bar and they loved their mocktail selection. The adults thoroughly enjoyed our fresh squeezed grapefruit and Tito’s also. Service was excellent and all the staff are extremely friendly! Highly recommend the royal red shrimp, was cooked to perfection and so delicious!“

“Everything about this place is just awesome. It’s an atmosphere that you won’t find anywhere else on the island! Staff, food, pricing, absolutely everything is wonderful and it makes me wish I lived closer so I could return more often!“

“food was awesome, had the Reuben and onion rings, hubby had the fish and chips. also had a Jameson peach tea, very good!! staff friendly and attentive.“

“This was one of our best experiences at The Breakers because of Santiago and his twin brother Gabriel. These two gracious gentlemen provided absolutely delightful service during our stay on the beach. In a world where it seems that people have forgotten how to be kind to each other, these two are joyful reminder of how we all should treat each other. The Breakers is very lucky to be represented by these two.

“Delicious hot food with amazing service. Will return!“

“We were in the area for 4 days. Cleats was the only restaurant we visited twice! Their outdoor patio is nice with a marina view. The appetizers were great. Foods were a little lackluster. The frozen cocktails were delicious. The second visit, our 4 kids were whiny, loud, and impatient. Our waitress (wish I would have got her name) was so kind and patient with us. She got mom and dad’s drinks out right away with waters for all the kids. Brought coloring pages and crayons. Took the babies binky and rinsed it off after it fell to the ground and brought it back wrapped in a napkin. She was very attentive and kind to our family. :)“

“Most taphouses have pub food which is greasy and makes you feel miserable. Small City's choice to have Asian fare is brilliant. Pho and sushi with CLAG's amazing craft beer is a perfect pairing. They have an extensive Taplist as well. If you can't find a beer you want or style you like they have spirits and cocktails galore.“
