    Spicy fries over a pool of ... never did find out what it was.
    Bethany D.

    The positive reviews of this place steered us here, but I'd say we were mislead. We were seated inside and they had all their fans on. Granted it was a 65 degree day in NE Ohio which feels like a heat wave this time of year, but it was uncomfortable and pretty chilly w the fans. I ordered a margarita and husband ordered a beer. Margarita was terrible. So sweet and full of mix - I can count on one hand the amount of times i haven't finished an alcoholic beverage and this is one of them. Beer was a bit warm and thus why he didn't order another. Had cheese curds for an app and they were very good. I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger w "spicy" fries. The burger itself was good (although I removed the bun bc it was soaked in grease), but what threw me off was the amount of liquid the fries were sitting in. I was hesitant to eat them until I could ask the waitress what exactly it was... I couldn't figure out if it was butter, oil, grease or something else? When I asked her, she said she really didn't know what it was but it's just something that they "pour over the fries." So I guess if you're going to get your fries spicy - check out the photo below bc that's what you're going to get. I couldn't stomach all of the grease, so I barely ate any. My husband ordered the Sandusky chicken which was a take off of the Nashville. He said it was seasoned well, but it came plain. You could pay extra for a piece of lettuce, tomato, onion, or coleslaw... But isn't that what you're ordering when you order this type of sandwich? He paid extra for the coleslaw and said he doesn't know how it would've tasted good without it. He had onion rings which were average. Daughter ordered chicken tenders and also didn't like them (and she too got the spicy fries dredged in an unknown seasoning), so those also didn't get eaten. Although she is a picky eater... I had to agree that they were very seasoned and dry. Not exactly what I would serve from a children's menu. Our service went downhill... Our waitress was pretty good, but for how dead it was, we had to do a lot of waiting for our check, to cash out, and for an extra side here and there. We will definitely not be returning and knowing this is a local business trying to thrive ... Couldnt even bring it to a three star.

    Chicken BLT
    Kelly P.

    We're back again for the 2nd year in a row and as always, it was so delicious! I made the sad mistake of getting my chicken BTL with grilled chicken (worst mistake!) instead of fried and it wasn't my favorite...but that was MY MISTAKE! We had the giant pretzel and it was as massive as always. The quest was REALLY good so I suggest getting that, along with their homemade honey mustard. Seriously, so good!

    Deliciously flash fried cheese curds
    Mark R.

    This is a *really* good gastro pub - seriously it was delicious with a suite of draught beers over 4.0 on Untapped. Cocktails were delicious, walleye was fresh, ambiance is unique and really fun. Highly recommend.

    We went with a large party and sat out on the patio. There's a very large outdoor area which is great for a nice night, and also works well for those who prefer to dine outdoors due to Covid. We had been there before the menu was redone, and there's been great improvements. If you haven't been lately, give it another try. Since it's a brewery, I'll start with the beer. I had a lemon wheat and it was a nice summer drink. The cream ale was also good. We came for dinner and the food was great. The burger and hot chicken sandwiches hit the spot. The Buffalo cauliflower and mushroom goat cheese pizza are great options to share with the table. My only note of improvement is that I wish the to go containers were a more sustainable option instead of styrofoam.

    Walleye dip appetizer
    Dana W.

    We came with a group of seven and we're hopeful this would be a great experience based on other Yelp reviews. Happily, we had a wonderful experience. The table ordered spicy cauliflower and the walleye spread as appetizers. They came out quickly and we're large portions; especially the cauliflower! The only complaint we could make (which is so minor I'm not sure it's worth noting) is that the amount of dipping sauce compared to cauliflower ratio is off. Additionally if it was served with ranch and blue cheese, it would be ideal. The spicy Sandusky chicken sandwich was raved about, but then the burger was tasted and it took the top prize for best tasting meal of the table! Although I will say that the wild mushroom pizza and the walleye platter were also delicious Are you bringing children with you? Or adults with bland pallets, fear not, because the cheese pizza is very tasty! From a sustainability standpoint we were happy to see metal soufflé cups for dipping sauce, but were disappointed with the styrofoam to-go containers. All in all, this was a 5 star experience!

    Brewery's are something that I seek out as they are often some of the best of the best when it comes to food and drink so much so that it keeps you wanting to come back again and again! Coming here has been a long time coming since they have been closed for most of the winter which I hope won't be the case for this next one as I can see myself becoming a regular here for more than one reason! First off let's start with the brews they have a decent varying of brews some light some dark and some spice all of which were yummy and just what was good in a brewery type of way! Of the brews I especially enjoyed the White Cap Ale which was a bit creamy and a bit blonde but don't let me not talk about the Merry-Go Brown which was a yummy brown ale that was rich but not too rich and just perfect! Besides the brews they have some insanely good shots the two I tried were the Lucky Charms, & Sugar Cookie the Lucky Charms one tasted like a fruity sugary mix just like the cereal complete with some on top! The sugar cookie one was just yummy it reminded me of horchata which is something I totally love! The food was delicious like in many ways of the starter options we went with the Buffalo cauliflower which was fried then covered in Buffalo sauce making for what was just yummy but don't let me sell that pretzel short as it was served with some beer cheese some maple butter and some Dijon mustard making for a yummy different dunk every single time! Of the dinner entrees I went with the Bait House Burger and let me say that this was delicious be if the best burgers I've had in a very long time as it was cooked perfectly the bun was delicious the sauce was pure flavor and let me say it was just perfect like it was that good and this is something I don't always say as I'm very picky about burgers! The fries that came with the burger were also yummy served very hot and fresh but they were just on the side as it was all about that burger! My friend ordered the wild mushroom pizza he totally enjoyed it and said it hit the spot after the few drinks he had. The service here was totally on point the staff was very friendly and the vibes were all positive making for an even better time all the way through! They are also pet friendly so bring your doggies as everyone always loves the dogs at the brewery! Overall this was a delicious time all around good beer good vibes awesome food and a friendly staff I know I'll be counting the days until I can come back here again! With that said I'll see you soon until then it's one more round it's bottles to the ground!

    First visit. Great service and they have their own label beers on tap. The Walleye Platter was delicious. I'll be marking this for when I return to Sandusky!

    Lexi P.

    Great drinks and friendly service. Also, love the games they put out! Def a highlight of our midwinter trip. If you can imagine, this was a really cozy spot for a February weekend.

    SandBrewski
    Steve A.

    Another brewery. Baithouse Brewery is located on the shore of Lake Erie. It's the best place for beer in Sandusky. Even though it's a small place, it still has a good variety of beer. They also have a food truck. From the outside it's not impressive. It looks like an old hillbilly bar more than a microbrewery. They even have a sign out front that welcomes bikers, so you can expect the crowd to be rougher. It still is pretty new. They are a small space so it's expected they should've limited in selection. About half of the beers on tap are their own. The rest are guest taps. It's about $6 for a pint. The one I like the most is the SandBrewski. I would come here again. It's close to the waterfront and in a quiet neighborhood. There's not as many tourists.

    Came to Bait House brewery for lunch seeing great reviews on Yelp. Bait house brewery did not disappoint us. Burgers was awesome including the fish sandwich and the Spicy Sandusky. Service was awesome. Loved the draft brews. If you in Sandusky area don't forget to stop by for a meal. Very nice outdoor space to sit down to enjoy your meals.

We also got the meatball sandwich, and the bbq bacon burger. The burger was on the small size, but the aioli in it mixed with the grilled onions made the burger so savory sweet I loved it!
