Fantastic place I had my usual chili dog and fries when I go down there. I was down there last Thursday and the girl you got working at the front is a huge benefit to the business very personable and friendly.

Great food! Would 100% recommend perch, very juicy and tender, goes well with their tartar sauce. Pickerel was not bad but compared to perch a little bland. The bun was pretty good, served with butter. The fries and coleslaws were, well, fries and coleslaws.They did take-out only when I visited, but they had a reserved patio for their customers. Parking was easy and free on the street. It was a great experience enjoying dinner while appreciating the beautiful beach, lake, and sunset!

One of the best fish and chips (perch dinner) that I have ever had. Amazing location and service with a great view of the lake!

I worked there for many years. I loved my job. I just do not know why they decided to harass me in the last days of my work. Especially while I was going through very difficult times in my life.

If the fries were fresh cut, they'd get 5 stars. Everything I've eaten there has been good except the breaded shrimp was meh. Attentive service. Those kids work hard.

Y'all when I say this food was heavenly, I am not fooling around. These fish tacos were unlike any I've had before or since and so insanely good and fresh. The fried mushrooms were delicious. Highly recommend.

I've been visiting Knechtel's since the late 1970s. The perch is so good, it's worth the drive from Buffalo. I've never had perch the way they prepare it anywhere else. Knechtel's is a must every time I go to Port Dover.

Staff was incredibly unwelcoming. Came in with a group of young, alternative looking adults and was treated much differently than other customers by a man who I assume is the owner. Upon entering and during our 10 minute wait, we were told three times that we could not stay upon receiving our food. Several of us noted that they had caught him staring and giving us dirty looks during our visit. Not once did we hear him repeat this to the other customers who entered during our wait, and when interacting with others there was a visible shift in his demeanor. During our visit, we sat quietly and talked amongst ourselves but were by no means disruptive. Food was okay for what it was, and they had a pretty good topping selection but definitely will not be returning.
