Don't let the strip mall appearance deceive you - my husband and I had the best meals here that we have had in a restaurant for a long time. I had the shrimp tacos, which were perfect, and my husband had a beautiful brisket sandwich, stacked high with meat, and delicious. The best part of lunch, though, was the truffle fries. Also worth noting: the waitstaff was very friendly. We will be sure to return the next time we are in the area. read more

Went for the first time with friends. Very slow service. Bar was busy but not that many people eating. Waitress did not bother to come back to let us that it would be a while. After more than an half hour, 2 were served, then one more. Then the next and finally the last person. I had a burger and truffle fries. I don't feel thr fries were worth the up charge and by the time my food came out it was all getting cold. Won't go back. read more

SO nice when your expectations are blown away. I had always heard good things about this Far East side spot but just recently tried it out. The Scallop entree was one of the best meals I have ever had at a restaurant and the cocktails weren't too shabby either! read more

A hidden gem. Was in the area and checked yelp for recommendations. This place looked intriguing. So glad we stopped! Super nice atmosphere, extremely friendly staff, awesome food with generous portions made to order and really good happy hour selections including craft beer :) read more

Pub Frato - Brisket patty melt... tender and delicious - New American Near Me - Concord, Ohio

My wife and I went to Pub Frato for the first time today for a light dinner. My wife had a cocktail and then ordered the buffalo chicken taco and I ordered the grilled cheese BLT sandwich along with an ice tea. My wife really enjoyed her tacos that came with fries. The tacos had a little bit of kick to them, but not overpowering. The fries were more than she could finish. My grilled cheese BLT was phenomenal, the best grilled cheese sandwich I ever had. The sandwich came with fries as well. I would highly recommend this sandwich. The interior of the pub was very modern and clean. We got seated in the dining area away from the bar area which was very much appreciated, as we prefer quiet dining. The only drawback for me was that we were seated at the first table as you enter the dining area, and my seat was right up against the wall with a heavy curtain drawn to one side, next to my chair, which constantly was at my side. If the table was moved a foot away from the entrance, the curtain would not have been a problem. It is either that or take the curtain down. Our waiter,Bob, was really attentive, and provided excellent service. I would not hesitate to come back and try some of the other dishes on the menu. We really enjoyed the dinner. read more

I don't think you can really go wrong with visiting pub Frato. Most everything on the menu is interesting, and the craft beer selection will certainly have something to please your pallet. The staff is always friendly and attentive, and I've never had a bad meal here. Anybody living in Lake, Geauga county should try this place. And anyone reading this review who happens to be passing through town on interstate 90, this is a great place to stop for a meal on your journey. read more

Food is amazing, staff is sooo friendly and beers are great. Such a great addition to the Concord area. Reservations needed on weekends, but a great place to go for a beer. Best dishes we've had are the Poutine (currently not on the menu), salads, fish tacos, burger, wings, and perogies. Just a nice change of pace from the Red Hawk/Panini atmosphere. We would be "regulars" if we didn't have kids! :) read more

We love it. Great food, great vibe. It's worth going. I love the tacos, my wife loves the salad. The desert (cookie with ice cream) is very good. Definitely recommend the soft pretzel as well. read more

This was a great place to eat. The look and fell of bar is modern country feels. Using a reclaimed design feel. The only complaint I had was not enough sausage on the stuffed peppers. They were still good. I had the kielbasa sandwich. Was really good. To many flavors going on but good. My girlfriend at burger and wedge salad. She was so happy with flavor and juiciness of burger. The staff was nice fun and outgoing. All and all I would go back. read more

Pub Frato - Great flavor - New American Near Me - Concord, Ohio

See all

Best breakfast tacos!! We love this place!! Super quaint place to get gooooood food! Staff has always been amazing!

Absolutely the worst service I've had anywhere. They brought my dinner. Never brought silverware or a napkin. I had nothing to drink for over 10 minutes after they brought my food. I didn't eat. Pretty much because I didn't have a fork. When asked if I needed a box I said no thank you, some eating utensils would have been nice. I gave them my food back and asked for the check and of course I was billed for the food I couldn't eat. This is the first review I have ever posted. That bad. This was at 3:30 in the afternoon. Not even busy. Ouch. read more

Love this place! My husband loves their brisket sandwich and I love their chipotle chicken tacos. Great food and service

Good food. Enjoy the shrimp tacos. The high-top tables are a little uncomfortable with the chairs. It's also a little pricey and there's a wait to get your food. Cool atmosphere and a great bar. They have a back room that is perfect for parties. We've held events there several times. read more

Stopped in by chance, and because of a great bartender they served a party of 20 that night. Food was on point, staff was excellent, atmosphere was very good and the house beer is award winning. Definitely recommend a visit. California read more

Love the food and the atmosphere!!! Shrimp tacos and truffle fries are AMAZING!!! Staff is very friendly. Great selection of beer and wine. Highly recommended!! read more

It's partly just that I don't like places like this (aka bars) in general, but the food wasn't even mediocre. We were passing through to have lunch with my aunt and stopped in her by my aunt's request because she bought the menu looked good. There were people who have very different tastes. My fiancé and I are vegetarians, my mom is a meat and potatoes girl and my aunt is more into upscale restaurants. My fiancé and I had the tofu tacos, which per the description, weren't anything like tacos. They are grossly over cooked tofu with teriyaki sauce in a thicker wrap. It was very one note flavor with the overpowering teriyaki sauce and flavorless tofu. My fiancé even said it was just okay and he likes everything. My mom and aunt both ordered breakfast platters of some sort. My aunt got extra toast when she ordered no toast, it was very dry and over done as well, her eggs were very over cooked and she had asked for over easy, and her bacon was severely under cooked and slimy. My mom's toast was burned, her eggs were fine, and her bacon was cooked more than my aunt's but still under done. The server was nice and did have the kitchen remake the bacon, which is why I gave it one star. The men's restroom was disgusting per my fiancé and the ladies room was so dark I couldn't tell if it was gross, but it smelled awful. It's like an overstuffed broom closet with weird lighting placed all around that doesn't really light up the room, just strange corners. It was also very loud and the tables are very close together. I am thin and my chair was touching the chair at the table behind me. It was just awkward. I would not eat there again and would not recommend it to friends or family. read more

Came in from Chicago for some lunch -- this place was perfect. Great tap selection, burgers were great, and Kate was awesome. Trendy and quiet. read more

The service and food quality for "pub" food is always great. I know what to expect when I visit here. It is consistently great...whether visiting during a slow time or a busy time, service and food quality are always great. read more

Excellent food and beer, great atmosphere, really eclectic menu. The impossible burger was great! We had it with mushroom and Swiss.

Pleasantly surprised! Great food for a strip mall location. The service was beyond excellent for a busy Saturday evening. Salad dressing was housemade and tasted great! read more

Under-the-radar place in Lake County. The tacos are amazing. The fries are as good as it gets. Pierogies are also great. Very high quality and trendy foods. Friendly bartenders and cozy atmosphere. Great spot! read more

Great food. It has a menu with a lot of unique items. Enjoyed going there and trying new things!

Food is just OK. Menue is kind of small. Prices are expensice. Not worth the price. Ambience is very nice but the ketchup at our table was empty and I do not know what I was served to drink it was suppose to be a Coke but it was undrinkable. read more

Great place! I have the buffalo chicken sandwich with slaw on top and my wife had the risotto with scallops. Both dishes were fantastic and perfectly prepared. For dessert I had the not your fathers root beer float, and holy sh!t was it good. The atmosphere was great in this place, very modern. read more

Was driving by and decided to give it a try. It was a Wednesday and their special is a bottle of wine for 1/2 price. Took advantage of that and wife and I had salads which were very good. I had the Graciella salad with salmon and she had a chopped salad with chicken. All the other plates coming out looked really good. Lots of craft beers, both on tap and in bottles. Our server was great. Brought us several wine tastes before we decided on one. Very helpful with food selection. Wish I could remember her name - had short red hair. Thank You! Will definitely be going back. read more

Pub Frato is a local favorite! Pretty much everything is great and hands down the cod fish tacos are a fan favorite. Great drink selection and atmosphere. Love their brunch too! Make sure to make a reservation or get there early because they fill up quick! read more

Really good gastropub food and a good selection of beer and booze. Nice brunch, we had bennies and they were awesome

My husband and I have eaten here several times. We really enjoyed our first experiences. The pretzels are awesome :) and we love the mustard dipping sauce. The last two times we were disappointed though. Visited for brunch a few weeks ago and sat at the bar. It was not busy at all, but the bartender/server was extremely inattentive although I was sitting right in front of him. Had to wait to be able to request salt and pepper and my drink ran out multiple times and I couldn't get his attention to refill. He was standing right there but in conversation with other employees and not paying attention. I also had to wait a long time to get my check after I finished. The food was really good though. Visited last night and the menu had changed, not for the better in our opinion. Multiple burger options but not much other variety. The menu felt limited and no specials offered. Also, our waitress refilled my iced tea and accidentally also 'refilled' my husband's Long Island Iced Tea with regular iced tea. We understood she was busy and flustered trying to plan to seat a large party coming in, but it was still about a third full and my husband had planned to finish it. No offer to replace. It wasn't absolutely necessary, but would've been nice to at least get the offer when we mentioned it to her. We'll probably still go and the menu will change again, but some of the original luster has been lost. read more

We made a reservation and were seated quickly. The premise here is, improved versions of pub classics. Service was very good. Our group had burgers, fish and chips, smoked brisket patty melt, mac and cheese, and fish tacos. I'm not sure why I can't bring myself to give it 5 stars. I'm just having trouble wrapping my head around charging $12 for mac and cheese. I don't know, I just left with the feeling that no matter how good I thought they were, they think they're much better. It's a nice spot though, unless you're looking for value (i.e not paying more for what you actually get). read more

Tasty treats! Love their pretzels and cheese. Mac and cheese was really good too. Hip atmosphere you don't expect to find in Concord. Will be back for sure. read more

Great place to get a drink. The decor is well designed and atmosphere on point. The beer selection is very well done and the miles are to die for. When it comes to choosing food....ehhhhh go elsewhere. We have gone there twice. Once with kids and they were less than impressed and as were we. Finding out it was a Gastropub we later tried it without them and the food still came up short. Go there for a drink or two while you figure out where you want to eat dinner. Again I repeat DO NOT EAT HERE....get a good buzz on and head to your next destination. read more

Good food and service. Their tacos and burgers are delicious. I would say their food is gourmet bar food. Always like coming here! Highly recommend! read more

My friends and I frequent this place - our favorite is the pretzels! Food is always delicious. Service is always great. They have also been very accommodating to changes/substitutes within meals - last time I visited I had a taste bbq chicken, the server gave me suggestions and also offered to ask if they could change their Thai pulled pork sandwich by adding bbq and using regular slaw. I know people who do this are annoying as customers, but it really was wonderful service she provided. Great customer service experience. We will keep coming back! read more

I've never been treated so rudely and felt so embarrassed at a restaurant/bar before. It was a Friday night at 10:30 and the bar had ~10 people in it. I ordered an old fashioned. I kept an eye on the bartender making it. He added a little too many cherries, so it ended up bright red. A little forgivable. But when he poured it into the glass, the volume came up short and he topped it with water. Not as forgivable. I gave my drink a chance for a couple of sips/5 minutes or so, but I could definitely taste that it was watered down and heavy on the sugar. So I politely asked for a more accurate old fashioned. The bartender did admit to being heavy on the cherries and seemed to happily make a new one. I got my new old fashioned. It was better. My friend who had never had an old fashioned asked to take a sip. I had another sip. All is good. Then out of nowhere, the bartender storms over grabs my drink. He literally flings it's contents into the sink and slams a recipe list in front of me and yells, "This is what is in an old fashioned, if you don't like it!" And storms away to the back. I'm stunned and drinkless. I have no explanation for why this happened. He didn't ask if I liked my new drink better. He just made an assumption and made me feel horrible. The only guess I could have is if he saw my friend's reaction to the old fashioned, as she doesn't drink liquor-heavy drinks often? But even then, his response was completely childish. A female bartender then approached us and asked what happened. She was nice and offered another drink to me --- which I was too stunned to take her up on. She asked again and comped our drinks which is the only reason this review has 2 stars. I asked if there was a manager to talk to, but the male bartender that acted so childish was the manager! I couldn't believe it. This is the stuff you see on Bar Rescue or Undercover Diners. I want to like Pub Frato. I've been here one other time. The ambiance, decor, and menu is superb for the area. But the service and execution of standard drinks that are not on the menu has to match the external presentation. As of right now, I'm very leery of returning. read more

This place is fabulous! Great food, great service. Our new hang out when we are at Spire swim meets! read more

Decided to try this place out on a Friday evening to celebrate a recent promotion. I called to make reservations for 2 earlier that afternoon, which was no problem. We arrived 15 minutes early and were told our table wasn't ready yet, also not a problem. We decided to get drinks & sit at the bar. Got good service there. 6:30 comes around & we notice the hostess hasn't even come over - we had to grab her to ask about our table. We waited another 5 minutes. Once at a tabletop in the back, we waited over 10 minutes before being served. The waitress tried to act like it wasn't her fault (she was the one serving our area). We immediately ordered knowing this was our chance. Got the Brussels Sprouts - delicious. My boyfriend got the Pub Burger which he enjoyed, but thought the patty was a previously packaged kind. I ordered 2 sides - vegetable quinoa & pierogies. Wait time wasn't bad for the food. It was all yummy too. However, I found a hair in my food that definitely was not mine. We complained & the waitress took it back (mind you, we're right by the kitchen). A couple minutes later she said they'll make me a new plate & take it off the bill. But literally a few minutes after that, the runner came back with the quinoa & my fork that I had left on my plate. They gave me the same plate & food back!! I knew when I saw the pepper I put on it as well as my fork. I couldn't believe it! While food & drinks were good, the service was terrible enough for us to never return. read more

First timer, and this place rocks. Can't wait to go back. Get the pretzel app. Get the tacos. Get the Mac & Cheese. Everything is great.

Overall the food and service was good. I felt the entrees were overpriced for the entree quality. Half off beer on Thursday was a plus and attracted us to the pub. They also do half off Wine on Wednesday's. I would only go back for the drink specials. Seems like a popular spot for the options in that area. read more

Wow. Chop salad, shrimp tempura tacos (like NOBU in Malibu) and the Side of Mac & cheese (I'm from the south, Mac and cheese snob, best I've ever had in a restaurant-get the side, not the fancy fixings) sooooooo good. Visiting from NYC for a cousins wedding and found this gem! Plus, the staff was Incredible-if I lived here I'd be here every day! read more

In the last few weeks, have been here once for lunch and once for dinner. Menu is well-edited. Salmon was perfectly cooked, crisp on outside and still moist inside. BLT was great, made with a tomato mix instead of slices, very good. Pretzel appetizer was fantastic. Only complaint was that our table was near door and every time someone walked in, we were blasted with cold air. read more
