    The place could use some sprucing up, but the service and food is good. There is nice patio seating with great lake views. We opted for inside as it was nice and cool on a hot day.
    My wife enjoyed the Country Fried Steak and I ordered the Seafood Basket, with jumbo prawns, calamari strips, cod, French fries and coleslaw. The fish was fried in a light batter. Very good, I would order again. Coleslaw was my least favorite item.
    Service was excellent.

    My family and I came here on a hot Saturday afternoon in search of a little bit of food and cold beer.  We are not from the area so we had never been here.  There was parking right out front which was nice.  Where this place really shines is the  view!  Wow!  I had never even been to Clear Lake and I was pleasantly surprised.  The employees here all all very friendly and welcoming.  They have docs as well so it looks like if you are boating you can dock and come have a bite to eat.  The food is basic American bar food  which is perfect.  The food was good and best of all the beer was cold.  There is nothing worse than a semi warm beer on a hot day.  We sat outside which was lovely because they have lots of umbrellas for the tables.  If I happen to be back in this area I will definitely stop by again.

    First off the menus on here are the old menus the new ones are really slimmed down like it wouldn't fill one page if it wasn't spread out in separate groups. I don't know when it changed since we don't come often since I live on the other side of the lake.
    Its not a good change though, something as simple as getting silverware and drinks should not need to be asked for multiple times. We held out hope maybe the food might be okay but nope not worth it. Then its just excuse after excuse as to why things were not good. Another good place to eat lost not that there were a lot of options to begin with.

    Was so glad to find this place. My husband and I enjoy jumping in the car on the weekends  sometimes & just drive until we find a place that might look interesting to stop for lunch or dinner. We both agreed this was as we call it a good find. Serve was great and the food very good.
