Captains Corner was one of our favorite places to eat during a recent visit to Kelleys Island. We had dinner on our first night and later returned for breakfast. The breakfast was solid, but I think I enjoyed the dinner more. I love a good buffalo chicken sandwich, and theirs was really good. A buttermilk fried chicken breast tossed in Buffalo sauce, topped with bleu cheese crumbles, lettuce, tomato, and onion served on a toasted bun ($12.99). The sauce was just spicy enough and I always enjoy having fresh bleu cheese crumbles on the sandwich!
My wife enjoyed the cranberry pecan salad ($12.99 add chicken for $3). This combined fresh mixed greens, dried cranberries, crushed pecans, red onion, and feta cheese with a raspberry vinaigrette. The chicken was a nice addition, though probably not necessary for this tasty salad. Large chunks of feta added a nice creamy flavor to compliment the sweet flavors of the cranberry and raspberry dressing.
Truthfully there aren't a ton of options on Kelleys Island, but Captains Corner was among the best we experienced.

What a great surprise. Our first time to Captains Corner and we were pleasantly surprised. The menu had a bit of a Mediterranean edge and we loved it. Just enjoyed an appetizer though. The bartender was very friendly.

It had food. Servers were not the best. Drinks and food are over priced and bland. Customers seem entitled, so do the servers. I will not be going back. You should not go unless that is what you like.

Had dinner with my sweet beautiful Betsy. Food was great!
If you're looking for a relaxing and family-friendly dining experience with stunning views, this restaurant on Kelleys Island is the perfect spot! Overlooking the beautiful Lake Erie, the scenic views alone make it worth the visit, but the food is what truly shines. Their daily homemade breakfast are comforting, delicious, and reasonably priced - offering a great variety to satisfy any craving. The casual, laid-back vibe makes it a great place to unwind with loved ones, and the full bar offers refreshing drinks to complement your meal. A must-visit if you're in the area!

Our experience was awful. Our server was inattentive and we had to beg for refills. My burger came out raw. We tried to flag down our waitress but she was busy vaping in the kitchen. When we got her attention to send it back she made us GET UP to bring the plate to her at the bar to take back. She didn’t even come over to our table?? She was unapologetic about the situation. Will never go back.
