Trapperz Tavern

Great food, casual atmosphere, reasonable prices and a huge variety of choices on the menu. We've been going there for years now. Always get fast friendly service and never had a bad experience. They are noted for their all you can eat yellow perch or cod fish on Fridays. Can't beat that anywhere I know of locally..Thursday is the Shrip special!

Went there Saturday for dinner - we've been here many times before...We all ordered prime rib. This place used to have great prime rib. This time wasn't so great.I think we all ordered it medium-rare. All orders came out well-done+++. It was tough, flavorless and overcooked, really terrible even for lesser grades. I would guess the beef was maybe Select (it wasn't Prime and I seriously doubt it was Choice). Remember, Prime is a grade of beef. If you offer rib roast on your menu and it's not graded "Prime," it's a standing rib roast, not Prime Rib. No way was this Prime beef. The horseradish served with it was very fresh and strong. The jus was really bland and had almost no flavor at all.The side salad was well made (and Trappperz includes onion with their salads!). The baked potato was gummy, and the sour cream was served in a little packet that was room temperature - bleh!I've ordered cocktails in this place before. DON'T DO THAT! They have a full bar but can't make anything more complicated than a rum and coke or 7-7. Stick to beer or a glass of wine. I ordered a PBR and it was great, especially at $2.50. I thought it would have come in a long neck bottle, but it was served in a can. A glass wasn't offered, so I requested one. I don't mind drinking some beers out of the bottle, but drinking out of a can??? Oh, I did order the turtle soup waaaaay back when. Turtle soup is delicious when it's made right. Trapperz reminded me of Campbell's Vegetable Soup with some meat added. Huge disappointment. I do remember their other apps as being pretty good though.The waitress was great. Sorry this isn't a better review, but it's an accurate depiction of our meal. I know from experience they can do better.

Jordan was our server. We had a eight top. She did absolutely amazing job was a attentive helpful, was on point with the refills. very clean establishment. Food was amazing such a widespread of local foods mostly fish and wildlife but everything was amazing. I hope they end up moving up she made a very good server

My first time here. I found the place very clean with bright and lively atmosphere. Service was good, no complaints there. Their turtle soup was recommended and that's really why we came. Over my career I've made turtle soup numerous times and that had to be the worst turtle soup I ever had. I believe they use vegetable soup and put turtle meat into it. Your first bite shouldn't taste like vegetable soup. My chef salad looked nice and had a fair amount of toppings. However, the lettuce was lukewarm warm at best. After everything we have heard we all left very disappointed.

Tough one to write. I been wanting to check this spot out because one of my yelp buddies likes it quite a bit. Its about 30 minutes from my place so I'm coming a bit out the way. When we arrived no one greeted us. I was very surprised how out of the way this spot is and that it appears to be more bar than restaurant. Now I had to hit the bathroom first so I wasn't thinking about any of that much.Come out n my sweetie is sitting at the bar and I can tell something was off. He said the guy that was standing by the door decided to come sit next to him n kept staring at him. Don't know if he was a bouncer or what. Lady behind the bar was rude to him he says. He says he's uncomfortable. I say if we need to leave let's go. Now this is my birthday so he's trying to chill out. Tells me sit n feel what I think of the vibe.Look around. Its Sunday 8pm and its all white folks probably over 30 crowd. Tell the bartender its my birthday and get an oh OK. Now we had been out n about all day and every spot offered something. First drink free, free dessert, 10% off. Something. All I got was oh OK. Now I'm not feeling it but stuck it out because my man was kind enough to be my driver all day while I picked n chose where I went.Ordered perch dinner. He got some kind of steak medium. It came well done. He had to send it back. The wedding soup that came with the dinners was good. I wanted wine and only barefoot n sutter home available. Perch dinner was perfectly acceptable. Nothing great.I mentioned to the bartender that I was still hoping to find some birthday cake before the end of the day. I got silence. No offer of dessert or anything for the birthday. The guy next to me told me happy birthday n off we went. My man feels like there was some racial overtones and I do trust his judgment as he is not one to trip out over nothing. Like I told him we should have left when he said he was uncomfortable. I felt it was just crappy service but was not present for what he encountered.. Either way, sucky way to end my birthday. Won't be returning

I don't usually write reviews, but I think this place deserves one. Driving by the restaurant this isn't a place I'd ever think to stop, but I saw some reviews here plus the menu and thought to give it a try. When we came in, it wasn't too clear how we were supposed to be seated, but honestly we only had to wait a couple minutes for someone to take us to a table, it was really busy at the time. The Trapperz sampler appetizer really had one of everything on it including fried mushrooms which I thought was pretty unique. The lemonade and all the sauces taste like they're house-made, I can't tell if that's the case but either way it was all really good. (The Buffalo Mac n cheese is the way to go y'all)If you like a country-bar sort of vibe, this is the place for you. I got a southern feel from this place which is nice coming from the city to eat here. If you don't like crowded (maybe it was just busy when we went, but) country sort of places, it might not be for you. I personally thought the staff were really nice and brought out food more quickly than I would've expected.

Service was very nice, attentive. Place looked clean, food portions are generous. Tried Fried Frog legs for the first time in long time and they were pretty impressively tasty.

I had the turtle soup and burger. The soup was based on recommendations but was nothing to write home about and a rather small cup. The Firehouse burger, on the other hand, was the best in recent memory! Full 1/2 lb. of juicy and flavorful patty cooked just right. If you come, you must try the burger, any burger!

The experience wasn't horrible. The waitress was ok, but the food was very basic. Got the frog legs cause it's the only place around and the legs were kinda slimy. Almost like it wasn't cooked completely. The fried food was completely saturated in oil. I understand you need oil to fry but it was a bit excessive. And the prices were way too high for the quality of food. Spend $30-$40 per person then you expect to get some decent quality food.

We stopped in on a whim, not from the area at all. We were greeted and taken to a table right away. Our waitress was really prompt and super helpful. I had street tacos, and my husband had the perch sandwich with onion rings. We also ordered fried pickles. The food was really good. The only reason I have 4 stars is because the meat in the street tacos was supposed to be brisket. What I had was not brisket; it was roast. The tacos were ok. If we get back to the area, I would definitely give it another visit.
