This is another late-season review for a PIB bar - the world's longest! The bar twists and turns…read morearound the entire massive space, which is pretty fun. It was completely empty when we were there the last weekend in September, which was totally okay by me. I honestly couldn't imagine what this place gets to be when it's full! There was a nice patio space with open doors into the bar area and some live music. Nate and I enjoyed a couple frozen drinks and had fun listening to the great playlist (sidenote, every bar we went to on the island was playing 80s music which is my jam). The bartenders were friendly to us and it was a fun spot! I don't think they serve any food but there are plenty of restaurants and other bars with food in this area.

This place was terrible. We came in to hang out and enjoy the live music and play some rummy. The…read moremanager was incredibly rude and made us stop playing our game. He claimed this was a part of Ohio state law, which was proven false after one quick google search. All of the bartenders were apologizing and clearly embarrassed by the whole situation. We immediately left and went to mojito bay, which is a much more friendly establishment.

Nate and I stopped here for a quick drink and had an ok experience. The bartender was so nice and…read morepolite but the drinks were not the best. They were out of a lot of beer and it looks like they only brew wheats and stouts. That said, it was the end of the season, so they were probably just running with what they had. Nate got the wheat beer which was alright. I got an espresso old fashioned which was not that good - it just overwhelmingly tasted like kind of bad espresso. We didn't get any food but the menu looked really good. I'd come back for a meal but probably would skip drinks at this spot.

We got the beer flight and my favorite was the chocolate raspberry brew…read more The smashburger was amazing and huge! And along with fries, it will feed two people easy. Highly recommend them!

This was our first stop for some food while visiting the island. We sat out on the front deck which…read morewas shaded and nice even in the 80 degree weather. Our server with the purple glasses was so friendly and polite. I started with a Jameson espresso martini and Nate got a black and tan. The menu is typical Irish pub fare and we were really hungry so it was a bit hard to decide what to get - we ended up sharing the fish and chips (added an extra filet). The Irish touches everywhere were so fun and the bathroom is worth a stop (at least the women's was). The drinks were strong and good, and the food was pretty good - definitely needed salt but otherwise it did the trick. Some of the desserts we saw looked really tasty. I'd come back to this spot!

We went to put in bay the first week of September last year. Very well taken care of establishment…read moreto the eye. It has an Irish feel and aesthetic and I honestly enjoyed my Hooley Smash burger especially since it was sitting in a pile of hooley cheese. The pretzel bun was delish and brought it all together. The buffalo wings were okay but nothing to rave about. Just no special flavor. We enjoyed our meal and had decent service but I did get the wrong entree at first with a very empty restaurant that day. We were a table of 4 with a child.

The fourth stop on the Middle Bass Island pub crawl. This is…read morea great outdoor venue to have a few liters of bier. They have a great selection of Stiegle bier on tap. Even the frozen pretzels were excellent. We didn't go upstairs to the restaurant, but it was packed so the food must be good. Downstairs next to the beer garden is an ice cream and chocolate shop. Be sure to get a bag of their dark chocolate espresso, covered coffee beans I highly recommend this place.

Our favorite bar at Put in Bay! The atmosphere here is…read moregreat. Great service, one of the bartender here got best /top bartender in Ohio. The Monea brothers were playing, they are very good and they get everyone involved. They plays music you can sing along with. Now the food, absolutely delicious. Had the bourbon burger, omg so good. Made perfectly. We also had to Brussels sprout taco, surprisingly very delicious as well. Had to try and see. This place will not disappoint.

This was our last stop on the island. Loved our bartenders - they were super friendly and chatted…read morewith us about the island and its inhabitants. We were there in late September so it was super quiet. I loved the big "pay it forward" board where you can pay for a drink for someone and they can claim in later (within one year). We just got drinks, but the food menu looked really tasty. Nate got the hot honey Manhattan, which was very good! We loved the kick from the hot honey. I got a 1oz pour of Blanton's which was very reasonably priced. They have a pretty extensive bourbon menu for a sports bar. Lots of sports team memorabilia, would be a fun place to watch a game.

Joe's bar has GREAT burgers!! We were pleasantly surprised that everything we got there was really…read moregood! Their cheese curls are the yummiest guilty pleasure, a must try. They have fast service and pleasant employees. There are a few tables inside but since it is a bar and we had the kids, we ate outside at the picnic tables. If you're camping in PIB or in for the day and want to eat GOOD FOOD at decent prices, this is your place.

This was another stop on the middle bass Island pub crawl…read more Joe's is a hopping place. They have a great outdoor space with plenty of seating. The bar is really busy, but you get your drinks quickly from the very friendly and a ton of staff. Of all the places we drank on our trip this one had the best service, best drinks, and best drink prices. On an island teaming with restaurants and bars, that charge A premium and delivers little value. Joe's is The place to go. The drinks were great. They have a great appetizer menu and the burgers are off the hook. I will definitely come back to this place again.

The flavor of the pizza was good, but the crust honestly reminded me of a cardboard insert from a…read morefrozen pizza... there was also so much cheese that every bite the toppings would come off. The breadsticks weren't bad. They were really big but a bit doughy. Needed cooked longer. The staff was friendly and the food came out quick though.

We came for…read morebreakfast, which was a nice and peaceful vibe, which was greatly needed after an evening of island shenanigans. Food was great/ I loved the health nut plate, especially the chia pudding. My gals enjoyed the eggs Bennie, and the other said the gravy on her biscuits was the best she's ever had!

Definitely a popular spot on the island...you'll always find an enthusiastic crowd and bands…read more Maybe it's because the band wasn't that great on the night I went, but I had a fair time - not bad, but not great. The circus top building adds a fun touch though. Probably worth a try- can't really miss it when you're walking the main drag

We went here for a dinner for my friend's bachelorette party before a night out. We were looking…read morefor good cocktails and a good, hearty dinner - that is exactly what we found here at The Boardwalk! We all ordered cocktails that came with quick service and were delicious! My friend tried the Crab Cake Sandwich and loved every bit of it. I ordered the Simple Cheeseburger, and although it was a typical cheeseburger (with added bacon), it was cooked perfectly and was as juicy as a cheeseburger could get! The fries on the side were great too. We left there being very happy with our choice. This is a great spot on the Boardwalk if you ever visit Put-in-Bay!!!

We visited this place on a Saturday for lunch. There was golf cart parking out front and it was…read morewithin walking distance of many other stores and bar since it's in the downtown part of the island. When we walked in we were a bit confused as there were multiple bars and food areas. The bathrooms were on the walkway leading to the restaurant. They were small and pretty filthy. One toilet one broken and filled with waste, and the other had toilet paper all over the stall. We were visiting with our dog and discovered, after walking upstairs, that dogs are not allowed on the upper deck. They are allowed on the lower and back portions of the area. We ended up at the seafood bar on the main level. Being from Maryland we're use to seafood with a lot more flavor and seasoning to it. This was very expensive for bland seafood. We also ordered a frozen lobster bisque to-go. (The plastic containers were flimsy and didn't make it back to the mainland before it cracked down the whole side.) If we go to the island again this will be a spot to skip.
