Best 5 Star bar on the island! Best Bratwurst in Put-In-Bay!…read moreGreat selection of beers! Full bar...

I am a "cheap eats" kind of person, and quality cheap eats are hard to find on Put-in-Bay, Ohio…read more While on PIB, through Yelp, I found Joe's Bar and Restaurant. Although it's outside the main area of eateries around the docks, I decided to give it a try. Before leaving my room, I perused the menu, and on my walk over, I debated my choices: maybe a hot dog with homemade slaw, or a Southwest burger with chipotle sauce, bacon, and pepper jack cheese. Hmmm... Upon arrival, I asked for a menu, and the bartender slapped a wrinkled one on the bar. The first thing I saw was the "Sloppy Scotty," which the menu proclaimed, "It's what put us on the map!" I immediately knew that was what I had to have. I ordered a Maker's Mark with ginger ale, in which the Maker's Mark was liberally poured, and I sat down to await my meal. Service was quick, and when presented with my meal, the first thing I noted was that the hot dog bun was toasted on the outside. It was still a hot dog bun, but the outside kind of looked like Texas toast--just thinner--with Joe's signature "Sloppy Sauce" applied liberally on top, intermixed with mozzarella cheese, and topped with onions. It looked fantastic and tasted even better. It was absolutely delicious. I had an extra Maker's Mark just for good measure and was presented with a $27 bill. The night before, at a different restaurant, I had a couple of beers and a medium-sized perch plate, which was good but cost me $50. Do yourself a favor: if you find yourself on PIB, drop by the unassuming Joe's Bar and Restaurant to grab a bite. You won't be disappointed.

Popped by for a visit yesterday. A piece of the Caribbean right here in Ohio! Fun environment a…read moregreat place to kick off your day on the island when you hop off the ferry. Great service, food, and drinks aplenty!

Came up to PIB for the day specifically looking for tacos. After passing Victor's (did not try)…read morewhich is literally a taco food truck without wheels, we kept walking and found Margaritas. Great vibe, clean, with good music but not too loud. We were there around 1pm on a Friday for lunch. The good: Birria tacos were good. Food came out hot and fresh - almost so hot you had to wait. Great consume' as well, especially for what I'll call a "basket lunch spot". The bad: we sat at the bar on the south side. The east side bar gets more attention. My friend and I both just got water - we were immediately ignored by the 4 college girls running the bar. Had to beg for a second glass of water. Even got one bartender's attention and she looked and walked away. Here's the punchline. I like to have a nice cocktail sometimes as much as the next guy. A margarita sounded really good on a sunny Friday. However we flew an airplane in to PIB for the tacos, so zero alcohol for us. Clearly that did affect our service quite a bit. We aren't cheapskates, we are pilots that needed 100% of our faculties to safely come home to our families. Would I come back? Truly I'd probably go to The Keys instead. Equally fun outside- better views, food and service.
