Clinton House

This is a beautiful old building to have a meal. My husband and I enjoyed our food, it was cooked perfectly. We had the Perch dinner with fries and Cole slaw. We ordered an additional side salad. We didn't want the Cole slaw or roll, but our waitress said there were no substitutions. Food came out with an expeditor and it was hot. The reason for the 4 stars is our waitress never asked if we wanted anything else and just brought our bill when we were still eating. She also came over to clear our plates and told me people were waiting for our table (my husband was in the bathroom at the time). We felt rushed and our waitress was very abrupt.

my husband and I greatly enjoyed their lobster bisque and crab legs. delicious. Melissa treated us warmly and professional. we would highly recommend the Clinton House. great ambience

Very nice establishment. Super friendly staff and great live music. They serve a nice meal, decent portion, and priced right. I had the pulled pork that came with fries. Not the biggest fan of fresh cut fries, but these were good. The bbq sauce was very nice. I missed the slaw that was supposed to come with the sandwich. They were busy so I didn't make a big deal about it. Would definitely go back.

The food is a bit pricey but I feel like the best bang for your buck and the best thing I had was there burger. The service was Great and super nice. The place was clean and had a really cool old school bar/restaurant vibe. Over all I would recommend this place.

Live music, good food, friendly staff (especially bartender who seemed to know all the locals and treat newcomers as old friends). We each had a fish sandwich, perch for me and walleye for my wife. Creamy coleslaw and fries that were pretty typical. The old building is kept restored but clean and well kept. This was a great first night in Port Clinton and well worth a stop for dinner especially if you enjoy listening to some music while dining.

Great food specials throughout the week! Checkout online!! Drink specials too!! Cozy friendly place to eat (near the Jet Express) in Downtown Port Clinton!

Best burger and fries special. Great lobster bisque Friendly staff Their 6months before st Patrick day the Rueben sandwich was the best ever

On the night of the Burning Snowman Festival, we stopped at Clinton House, expecting to catch the final bus there, as advertised, at 11 PM. While waiting inside for the slightly delayed bus, we witnessed the bartender, (presumably) the owner, and one of the servers aggressively forcing elderly guests (who weren't in the way of any closing tasks) out into sub freezing temps-- while allowing her own friends to stay. Despite being listed as an official bus stop, the owner claimed she never agreed to it. If that's their attitude toward festival-goers, I'll be sure to let Port Clinton know they shouldn't be on event listings in the future.

We enjoyed our visit to Clinton House. The food and service were great along with the live band playing. We would highly recommend going here.

Typical bar fare. Club sandwich was good. Perch sandwiches were good, but no lettuce or tomato served on side with it. (Just offering it to customers, on the side would be a nice touch) We had the vegetables as the side and since the vegetables were in a glaze, it got the bun from my fish sandwich all soggy. Simple suggestions would be to separate the veges from the sandwich. The lobster bisque was the unfortunately not good. There was something crunchy in it and the lobster had a very odd taste to it. As for service, please bring a pitcher of water to the table when refilling. The waiter kept taking our glasses over to the fill station, have the edges of our cups and straws up against his hands and shirt. Just for reference, check the live entertainment days and times, bc when a band is playing- it is very loud, but that was our fault for not making an earlier reservation to avoid the music.
