The food was really good the service was not. Our drinks were not asked to be refilled. Everything was clean. Our server was horrible. We will probably not go back there again due to our server! read more

Menu has changed drastically. Use to get two sides with dinners now only one.Took the rosemary french dip sandwich off the menu. Prime rib comes with horsey sauce,no au jus what's the point of prime rib without Au Jus. Less food and higher prices. read more

Cute place on the main strip in Peninsula, just outside the hiking trails and across the street from the Winking Lizard. They have a parking lot and ample seating, both indoor and outdoor. We sat outside on a busy Saturday afternoon and got right in. The food is what you expect at a pub, nothing special or fancy but they have a good variety. Service was fast and friendly and the four of us were reasonably pleased with our meals (three burgers and a salad). The fries were my favorite! Worth a stop if you're hungry after a good hike or bike ride. read more

SERVICE: 2 FOOD QUALITY: 2 DRINK QUALITY: 4 ORDER TIME: 3 AESTHETICS: 5 NOISE LEVEL: 5 MENU SELECTION: 5 OVERALL EXPERIENCE: 3.71 So where do we start. We chose this place because it's parking lot was packed full of cars. Figured it was the go to spot in town. The restaurant has tons of seating so we didn't have to wait for a table. We actually requested to sit outside at the bar which had a wonderful tiki/Caribbean theme. The service wasn't wonderful. The bartender was absent for most our time there which made sense as to why the counter tops were sticky. The menu selection is very large, and has many options. They all looked good, and it was very hard to choose. Naturally I went with the chicken sandwich though. I chose the nashville hot chicken sandwich. I was a little saddened by my choice. The bun was cold, and the nashville sauce was nothing like nashville hot sauce. I only wound up eating half of it. Thankfully, I ordered boneless wings too. They were pretty good. We had the local beer, and while it's not as good as Grand Rapids beer it hit the spot. I wanted a second, but the lack of our bartender stopped that idea. Overall, this place has average food/drink and below average service. Sadly, this place could be a solid 4 or even 5 star with just the service aspect. A present bartender, and a little cleaning goes a long way. read more

Our server was very attentive. We ordered the deviled eggs as an appetizer. They were different from what we are used to in the South, but they had a good flavor and was very unique having smoked paprika on top and a kosher pickle on the bottom. My friend and I ordered the New York Strip. It had good flavor, but unfortunately was not cooked as we asked at Medium Rare. They were cooked more like well done. I got the eggplant fries and they were sooo good. My husband got the ribs and they were good and tender. The restaurant was clean and a good family atmosphere. read more

I wanted to take my mom out to dinner because we haven't spent quality time one on one in a while. Decided to try this place only for the appetizers to take 40 minutes to come out. Our burgers were also undercooked. Our waitress was also very rude and the bathrooms smelled absolutely horrid. Trying to park was a disaster. Overall had a horrible time wish I never took my mother here. 0/10 wouldn't recommend. read more

Very cute place! We had a 20 minute wait and were directed out to the outdoor bar. Bartender served us quickly and cashed us out because she knew we were on the list for a table. Waitress was super nice. Checked back a few times. My wrap was delicious and came out very quickly. All around a good time read more

Fun place for a casual meal! First time dining at Fisher's Cafe & Pub and loved the atmosphere here. We were greeted when we walked in and asked if we wanted to sit inside or out. Sat inside and glad we did because we were seated at a table by a window. Had fun people-watching while eating. Our food was delicious! I ordered off of the seasonal menu, fish tacos and fresh made chips. My spouse ordered the cowboy burger and chili. Everything was freshly prepared, served hot and delicious! The food was seasoned very well. Save room for the lemon cake! It's amazing and also on the seasonal menu. Took a bite too soon before taking a pic. Trust me, it's a phenomenal piece aid cake! The staff was super nice, hard working and friendly. Looking forward to eating here again! read more

My husband and I stopped by Fisher's after hiking in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. A park ranger recommended Fisher's and we were so thankful that he did (We love supporting local family establishments)! It was around 2 pm and they were still experiencing quite a lunch rush, but seated us quickly on their spacious outdoor patio. I can't say enough about the friendly service. Our server was quite patient and very accommodating with my dietary restrictions. Our food arrived in a timely manner and both my wings and his ginormous burger were absolutely delicious. There is a large paved parking lot and plentiful nearby street-parking. The cafe/pub is conveniently located off of route 8. I highly recommend eating at Fisher's after a day of hiking! read more

First of all I'd like to mention that I grew up in the area and have been enjoying this Cafe and Pub since 1958 when I had the pleasure of meeting "Grandpa George " who was very personable and friendly! I had several relatives from Texas in town and we decided to go to Fisher's for a late lunch the next day . I looked at Fisher's Web site and saw they have several Igloos that you can reserve for a two hour period for a minimal reservation fee, which I did ! Wow ! What an AWESOME " Memory Making " experience that was totally unexpected ! It was 11 degrees outside and snowy which made the AMBIANCE of the setting Amazing !!! Our table accommodated six people but there were only five in our party. When we arrived we were pleasantly greeted and immediately taken to our Igloo ! Our waitress Caroline W. throughly explained the functionality of the door, heaters and window ! She then took our order for drinks and appetizers which were promptly prepared superbly and served ! We ordered our lunch entrees which again were quickly prepared perfectly and served ! Myself and my guests were all elated with the excellent quality of our meals and drinks and especially Caroline 's attentive service which she so graciously provided!!!!! What a wonderful Idea to have these Igloos ! I highly recommend Fisher's for their great food and drinks and ESPECIALLY their IGLOOS!!!!! I would like to THANK EVERYONE at FISHER'S who helped make our MEMORY ! read more

Fishers Cafe is such a staple in Peninsula Ohio. They have a wonderful brightly lit patio that is inviting and comforting. Right off the tow path it is a great spot to catch a breath after a bike ride or kayaking. Their food is enjoyable as well! I appreciate there are healthy options. We got the hummus and it was a pretty dang good size. I also appreciate their drink menu, lots of draft beer options. Also their dessert menu will offer something for everyone. read more

Friends from California were on a road trip and asked us to meet them. We decided to go off the beaten path and try Fisher's in Peninsula Ohio. They are BBQ lovers and were blown away with the size of the rack of ribs they ordered, and the delicious flavor. My wife and I were in the mood for steak and loved ours cooked to a perfect medium to medium rare, seasoned to perfection, what an aroma and flavor!!! Our salads were a great start and the steamed veggies were amazing as well. Keep up the great work Fisher's!!! Sorry, we were so hungry and carried away by the aroma starting in the parking lot that we dove right in and forgot to take photos. read more

Stopped by for lunch around 12:30pm on a Monday while hiking at Cuyahoga National Park. There are pretty much only a few options inside/close to the park with Fisher's and the Winking Lizard. The place had a nice outdoor area and a diner vibe inside. Definitely small business family establishment vibe. They were able to seat me immediately. I ordered the Honey Mustard Chicken Wrap, which was decent. The Mac n Cheese bites were the best ones I have ever had! The cheddar was extremely rich and they were fried to perfection. Portion sizes were good. The parking lot was a tad small so it might be crowded when busy. Service was good and prices were cheap. Overall, this is a good place to stop for lunch at Cuyahoga National Park! read more

Was driving down route 8 on a pleasant Sunday evening, and thought that some wings sounded good for dinner. Drove a few minutes off the highway to get to Winking Lizard in Peninsula. It was on a wait. Sigh. Looked across the street and saw a place called Fisher's. Looked like there was a patio, and didn't seem overly crowded. I was hungry and didn't want to wait at the Lizard, so I figured what the heck, let's give it a try. Turned out to be an excellent decision. Walking in, I noticed a gentleman on the patio has some ribs. They looked delicious. Though I wanted wings, the ribs won the day. I ordered them with the house fries and some baked beans. My partner got the blackened catfish, with some eggplant fries and the corn salsa. Both dishes were a huge hit. The ribs literally feel off the bone. No knife and fork needed. Just a huge pile of succulent pork ribs in a sweet, tangy BBQ sauce. The baked beans had just a little zest to them, and the fries were coated and crispy, hot and fresh. The catfish was just as good, if not better. Perfectly seasoned and baked, with a nice balanced texture. The eggplant fries were *chefs kiss* paired with a wasabi infused dipping sauce. The catfish came with a side sauce of Jack Daniels bourbon glaze. It was also served on top of a corn salsa, which was a great flavor and texture to go with the fish. Though we didn't need it, we opted for the key lime cheesecake because everything else was so good, we had to see if the dessert followed suit. Spoiler alert: it did. Sweet, creamy New York style cheesecake, piped with a tart green lime frosting, and real whipped cream on the side. Overall, this was one of the better meals I've had in several months. Price point was more than fair, and the ambiance of the outdoor patio was just right. Will definitely be making a return to Fishers. read more

Sat at the patio for 20 min and no waiter. Four other tables were seated after us, had drinks and appetizers and still no service! It wasn't that busy either. Never again. read more

We stopped at this establishment, as we passed through the area on our way to a concert. We figured "four and a half stars on Google has gotta be decent, right?" Ehhh....not so much. The food was food, but that's all it was. We were invited to seat ourselves, which was fine, but when we sat, we had three pieces of menu literature on the table greeting us. We figured that was it, but then we were given two additional menus AND a clipboard! Get a website or something to QR code this into....it was completely overwhelming from the get-go! We finally settled on our food and tried the pretzels to begin with, which were hot and cold at the same time. Four sizable pretzels were given to us with two tiny dipping containers. Thank goodness it was just two of us, else there'd have been a fight just to get some of the cheese...which was somewhat of a letdown. I chose a half slab of ribs and my wife, a BLT. The lettuce was wilted and the bacon was absolutely flavorless! My ribs were okay, but whomever grilled them afterwards, grilled them at too high a temp, and left charred, acrid bits throughout, which really were unpleasant. We had originally decided that we were going to get dessert, as the giant slices of carrot cake looked amazing, but after the main dinner experience, we decided to pass. I stopped in the restroom on the way out, and ick! A drip tray for the soap dispenser? Rusty dividers for the urinals and sink? Chrome so corroded and gross that it was green...glad I ate before going in there! We definitely wouldn't go here again, even if we were local. This is a place that seems like its best days are behind it! read more

We came on Mother's Day. Was handed a clipboard with specials. I ordered the prime rib only to be told it didn't start until 4. Nowhere on the clipboard did it say that. It took 45 minutes for our appetizers and after a hour I had to ask where our food was. The steak was full of gristle. We should've went somewhere else. read more

This place is super neat. The staff here was awesome. I sat at the bar and had the cowboy burger with French fries and a vanilla milkshake, which did not make it to the picture. The food was amazing. My burger was cooked to perfection. It had bacon and onions and a side of BBQ sauce. The fries were crispy. The milkshake was cold and tasted awesome. The location was a little busy, and guests were having a good time and enjoying the food. Can't wait to come back when I'm in the area. It's definitely worth checking out. read more

Great atmosphere here. Unfortunately there were no seats available outside. The spinach salad was delicious, but the wings were just ok. Once you got past the sauce, they had no real flavor. I tried one of my friend's fries and they're a slightly battered deliciousness. Service was great. Our drinks were never emptied. I'd go back for sure. The menu was great and I look forward to trying some more of the items. read more

After our beautiful hike at Cuyahoga National Park, we were super hungry and were provided references to Fisher's & Winking Lizard at Peninsula. Winking Lizard had a huge waiting so, we hopped into Fishers. There were no parking available so, parked at the street. Considering we were a big group, service was satisfactory. The ambience is a classic pub setup with patio dining available as well. Our order had - wings, breaded coconut shrimp, black bean burger, California chicken sandwich, Greek wrap and chili. All the dishes were very tasty and generous portion size. For the drinks we ordered mojito's and draught beer. Overall good food and service! read more

Food was fine but I'm giving it 2 stars solely for the reason that they add 3% to credit card purchases. Whether illegal or in violation of their credit card agreement, I'm not sure (though it might be), it's certainly dishonest-- unless it's buried somewhere on their website, it is not clearly shown on the website tab. I've gone to literally hundreds of restaurants and have never seen this before (a discount from the advertised price for paying in cash is a different story, but a convenience surcharge is kinda wild). Either way, I think this was a very poor idea and it's left a sour taste in my mouth months later! read more

Good burgers and beer selection. Sweet Baby Jesus Chocolate Peanut Butter Stout!! Great service by Kate M! Really good find!

Had a nice experience here. The Raider Burger was tasty and cooked the way I asked, which rarely happens. Had a good kick to it. The star of tHe show was tHe eggplant fries and the wasabi sauce it came with. Very good, and different, especially for a little local place like this. read more

We have been here several times and always had a good experience but tonight tops them all. They have a clam bake special going on right now and it is absolutely fantastically delicious. Is it a little pricey? Yes but do you also get tons and tons and tons of food. I got a pound of crab legs and a dozen clams. And that came with a bowl of clam chowder, corn on the cob, and a baked potato on top of all the other food. We left absolutely stuffed but so happy! We will definitely be back read more
