We were in town for a baseball tournament and knew we had to try Zuppaman after reading all the…read moreglowing Yelp reviews. They were absolutely right. It was a smaller store front, cozy and a hidden gem! The restaurant has so much personality, with years of awards proudly displayed throughout the dining room. Before the food even arrived, we knew we had found somewhere special. We started with the Bistro Onion Soup and the Red Pepper Lobster Bisque. French onion soup and lobster bisque are two of my all-time favorites, so my expectations were high. The Bistro Onion Soup absolutely delivered--rich, flavorful broth, perfectly tender onions, and an incredible blanket of melted cheese. Easily one of the best onion soups I've ever had. The Red Pepper Lobster Bisque was equally memorable. The sweetness of the roasted red peppers paired beautifully with the lobster, creating a unique twist that really worked. My husband and older son both ordered the Momma Mia. A spaghetti sandwich? We were intrigued! My son gave it a 9/10 and said it tasted like a lasagna sandwich. He'd order it again without hesitation. My youngest chose Ziggy the Piggy and declared it "the best sandwich I've ever had." That's high praise from a 10-year-old! He gave it a perfect 10/10, and the sandwich was nearly as big as his head. Honestly, reading the menu made us want to come back just to try everything else. Every item sounded delicious. What made the experience even better was the staff. They were warm, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to love what they do. That kind of hospitality is hard to fake, and it made us feel right at home. If you're passing through--or even if you're not--Zuppaman is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

They steam their bagels rather than roasting them, so you get that warm, chewy goodness. There are several options of sandwiches and you can make it a combo with chips and a drink. There is limited outdoor seating right outside, but there is ample seating throughout the pier. Overall the bagels were pretty good. Nothing fantastic, but good for a quick bite.

I am leaving this review because what happened during my visit could have had serious consequences…read more I have a dairy allergy, not a preference and not lactose intolerance. Before ordering, I informed staff of my allergy and specifically requested that my sandwich be made without provolone cheese. My husband also reminded staff that I could not have cheese. We repeated this multiple times to make sure there was no misunderstanding. What makes this especially concerning is that staff clearly understood I had a dairy allergy. When I ordered a salad, an employee immediately informed me that the poppyseed dressing contained dairy and helped me switch to a vinaigrette. That showed they were aware of the allergy and the need to avoid dairy products. Despite all of that, my sandwich was still prepared with provolone cheese. I discovered it after I had already begun eating. For someone with a food allergy, that is not a minor mistake. It is a serious food safety issue that could result in a medical emergency. When I brought the mistake to the staff's attention, I was shocked by the response. Instead of receiving a sincere apology, concern for my safety, or an offer to replace the meal or issue a refund, the response was dismissive. The explanation given was that the employee thought the sandwich modifications were for my husband rather than for me. Food allergies should never be treated casually. Customers trust restaurants to take allergy warnings seriously, especially after being informed multiple times. What concerns me most is not only that the mistake happened, but how it was handled afterward. If you or a family member has a severe food allergy, I would strongly encourage you to consider this experience before dining here. Allergy-related mistakes can have serious consequences, and based on my experience, I left feeling that my concerns were not taken seriously. I would run away from this restaurant either that or have the nearest hospital on speed dial, you might need a medic

First time ordering some takeaway for a picnic and was so impressed with the very friendly service…read moreand really tasty food. Sometimes you just need to not eat fried food and this is the best place for healthier fare! Really tasty wraps, salads, and sammies. Don't sleep on their coffee, either, I got an iced caramel latte and it was perfect -- not too sweet and the coffee is really good and strong. We tried a little of everything: chicken salad salad, chicken salad croissant, a BLT, and a chicken ranch wrap. Everything was outstanding. Love the chips they have, too (made in Michigan). They're not too salty! There's a small gift shop area and a separate bigger gift shop/home decor in the space adjacent to the cafe. There's outdoor seating on a patio, too. Definitely recommend if you're visiting Catawba or Port Clinton or even just coming/going from Miller Ferry. Sorry I forgot photos! Trust me - it was 5 stars for awesome easy fresh deli food!

I had the Alex which is a mix of three syrups. It was ok but did have a syrup-y artificial aftertaste. Also their espresso is very strong and felt effects very quickly. So keep that in mind. The breakfast sandwich was just egg, cheese and flour wrap. It was ok, the kid semi tolerated it. The star of this place is the service. Alex was very good. Thr ambiance was unique. The price was very reasonable.
