The staff was great! I got the harbor burger and it was soooo good. Homemade ranch and delicious fries. :) My only downside was I did feel like everything was a little under seasoned. I wish I had sat outdoors, but it's more of a bar! So just be prepared for that. :) It was quiet and laid back at lunch time on a Saturday which is always a plus read more

We had dinner tonight at Casey's New Buffalo, and it was such a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, but what truly made our visit special was the outstanding service and their genuine dog-friendly atmosphere. Our waitress, Julia, went above and beyond--she even surprised our dog with a pup cup, which was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel incredibly welcome. That level of kindness and attention really added to the enjoyment of our meal. If you're visiting, we highly recommend: * Perch Po' Boy * Perch Fish and Chips * Mahi-mahi Fish Tacos * And definitely start with the housemade chips with sour cream dip--it's the way to go! Great food, excellent service, and a place that warmly welcomes furry family members--what more could you ask for? We will absolutely be back and highly recommend Casey's to anyone in the New Buffalo area. read more

2nd time here with our two dogs. Great food and service. Sat on the patio at the rear and the dogs got a nice bowl of water and we ordered their pup cups which they both enjoyed. Will be back again when in the area. read more

This place has bad service but okay food. The "famous" chip and dip is just a bowl of sour cream and cold potato chips. I usual like to write more in reviews but that really does sum it up and nothing else is needed. You can do better. read more

First the patio is dog-friendly, it's spacious with many tables and beautiful place to hang out when the weather is great My poke bowl was huge! I couldn't finish, probably only ate ¼ of the bowl and I was full. Took the rest home. My husband's burger was also huge but he gobbled it all because it was tasty. He said the coleslaw was also the way he likes it, a little cranky and tangy. Parking is easy when we were there on Sunday. read more

Good variety of menu items and fairly priced for area. House chips are seasoned well and with beer dip--delish. LOVED the firecracker shrimp--good sized shrimp cooked perfectly with great flavor. The service we received was good and atmosphere was nice. We'd definitely go back! read more

Pretty good experience overall. Not many customers, they're all probably at Stray Dog. Solid food and drinks. read more

Our server, Chloe, was great! BBQ pulled sandwich was pretty good, but the pineapple slaw is nothing special. Average coleslaw with golden raisins and canned pineapple chunks. My friend's friend fries were far superior. Everything needs salt, which is provided on the table. Would like to try other menu items, but will ask more questions next time. Ambience was nice! Quiet for a Saturday late lunch. Good music, and the TVs were muted which was nice. read more

can only speak to the drinks... 4 of us bellied up to the bar and stayed for 3 bevs - the bartender chatted us up or we chatted her up? :) we had a great experience. all the while, we reviewed the menu which looked very promising but the reviews make me leary. of course we are fans of stray dog but we would love to give casey's a shot next time we're in the area. read more

We stopped at Casey's for a casual date night. After reading the menu we decided to just order a bunch of appetizers. The drunken scallops, chips and dip, crab cake and pork belly tacos all hit the mark. The dip with the cups needed a bit more salt for my taste but the chips were really well seasoned. Everything else was great. The service was a little lackluster but not necessarily bad or anything. The patio was cute, not too loud, and with the ivy coming in and the sun shining it was lovely. read more

Great service, and good food. There were lots of options and it was something I will recommend to others.

First time help reviewer. The beast in the back is a monster. I get it you run the bar - well when you take 15 minutes to get to us your tips going down. Sorry. We order a round for the bachorlette party having fun. Your tip is shitty - $10. You openly boo us? You're the one who sucks. Next thing I know the police are outside who all know who you are. Next place we go they all know who you are. Woof. Take a GLP-1 and calm down. read more

Had an incredible fried perch sandwich here today with an awesome side of pineapple coleslaw! It looks so good I dug in without taking a pic. We ate on the back porch and it was Wonderful. Service was on point. read more

My wife and I had lunch today (08-24-25). There was live music (starting at 1:00 pm) that was pleasant. Great atmosphere on the back patio. The staff was polite and playful. I had the Blackberry Jalapeno Burger with the Pineapple Slaw and she had the Grilled Cheese and Bacon sandwich with sweet potato tots. Everything was delivered to the table warm and with good presentation. We split our meals so we could both experience the unique flavor profiles. I would order both meals again as they were delicious, not on your typical menu, and decent portions. Wife loved the clam chowder. Side note: there was a ton of the sweet potato tots (we had plenty left over). Not the least expensive lunch in the area, but I feel the quality of the food and portions made it worth it. Would eat here again. read more

The best part about our experience for dinner was immediate seating at a very busy time in new Buffalo. We showed right to a table indoors with comfortable air conditioning. The menu is fine. The food was average. But the wait? Interminable! finally, the server brought one of our four meals. We then waited 25 minutes for the other three. Not a word from the server and apology or explanation. read more

A great spot in New Buffalo! Excellent cocktails, friendly service, and a lovely dog friendly patio perfect for spring through fall. The food is fresh and delicious definitely stopping by again next time I'm in the area! read more

In town for a wedding. As a foodie I don't usually think of Michigan as a place to enjoy food. This place was a pleasant surprise. Pot roast was the best I have ever had. Fish and chips was excellent as well. Our server was a 10. Will go back before we leave. read more

Everything on that menu is excellent! The service there is excellent as well and the restaurant is so beautiful and clean! I love going here for the SUPERMELT Burger with those huge onion rings they serve read more

I stopped by Casey's for a casual cocktail when in the downtown New Buffalo area. Their cocktail and beer selection was pretty decent but the service was not it. Staff were immediately dismissive and rather rude to our group. We were told that if we wanted to sit outside, we needed to order at the bar and bring out ourselves. We got a round of drinks on one tab at the bar but requested to switch one before our bartender entered it into their system. He kindly rolled his eyes at us and asked if we wanted to change anything else sarcastically. It took about 15 minutes to make all (5) drinks which wasn't terrible but also got sass when reminding him we asked for one water. Outside of the service, our group really enjoyed the drinks. They were well balanced. I got the pear cosmo which was my favorite drink of the evening! Some others we got a spicy margarita, hazy ipa, and moscow mule. The outdoor patio was spacious and quiet for being downtown. We thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere! read more

Stopped by Casey's recently for a game, and just had drinks and an appetizer. Standard bar experience, bartender was super friendly and fun to chat with. Came back tonight for dinner and had a great meal! The chef special was raved about by the (different) bartender so I gave it a go. It was a chicken thigh seasoned with what I think were Indian spices, and served as a deconstructed ramen with noodles, broth, and a soft boiled egg. The broth was so decadent. But Casey's is like a bar/pub so I was utterly confused - how did this amazing & creative food come out of this kitchen where I had only ordered cheese curds from previously??? New to the area but will be a regular at Casey's moving forward - whether for a chill time on the patio, saddling up to the bar for a brew, or dinner! read more

Crazy good sandwich...I wrote a general review of Casey's a year ago, which still holds. Needed to write a specialty review, however, after having the pictured Philly Cheesesteak. My son got the same sandwich and we agreed, it's one of the best we've ever had. Tons of flavor with the perfect mix of ingredients and mildly messy. If they ever take it off the menu I'm boycotting Casey's for life. Side note: I did not like the sweet potato tater tots as they are dusted in cinnamon and it's just strange (seems like some will love them, some will hate them). As a reminder, sit outside, much cooler space. read more

Neighborhood melting pot and hangout. Great food and great drinks plus a staff that makes you feel relaxed and invited. It's my first choice downtown. read more

I was here one night a bit ago and watched a big tall bouncer threaten a young girl with a gun. The girl wasn't drunk or threatening and I'm not sure what happened, but there is no reason a bouncer ever needs to threaten anyone with a gun. Highly do not recommend given that the place employs such seemingly unstable people. I usually do not leave reviews but this was far too egregious (in my opinion) to not let other people know the dangers of coming here. read more

Solid grilled cheese and fries. Excellent Guinness. Staff was super kind and helpful.

Traditional decor, don't change a thing. Food was fantastic and abundant proposition. The Pot Roast was top notch. Thanks for diligently focusing on the first principles of good experiences in dining. read more

Very very mid. I had the pork belly sandwich and I couldn't eat it. It was 80% fat. The homemade chips were good.

horrible service. with a bachelorette party and got bitched at for just showing up. was with grown women that got their drinks taken away after spending hundreds on drinks and food. don't go to this bar if you want to have fun. read more

Food was below average for bar food, I got the pretzel bites and beer cheese dip. The pretzel bites were burnt and hard, the dip had no flavor. We came back later because we were told it was the only bar with a band in town and it was one singer not a whole bad. The outside bartender was not at all friendly and pretty rude. Service was very slow at lunch when it wasn't busy and when they were busy. None of the staff greeted you or even tried to be nice. Outside area is nice lots of trees, but you can smell the dumpster in certain sitting areas, we did at lunch. read more

Great gathering spot with great options for vegans/vegetarians! Great music pumping and fast food!! ONLY bad note is that they are obsessed with plastic straws... shoving 2-3 of them in every drink, even the glasses of water! read more

My travel companion loved the Caesar salad. I ordered the Southwest salad with shrimp. Everything was tasty. I'd go back if I'm ever in the area. Got it to go, so I didn't experience the service but the hostess was helpful. read more

Probably the best casual dining in New Buffalo but the thing that separates Casey's from the rest is outstanding (really outstanding) service. Our server, Tamara not only made our meal a total joy, but even corrected a problem with one in our party's dinner. Tamara figured out the problem and had the kitchen fix it the best way possible. An amazing afternoon. Best hamburgers. Best fish and chips. Great mac and cheese. The back outdoor dining area is quiet, clean and shady. Really outstanding. Thanks, Tamara! read more

We stopped for dinner in the patio because we were traveling with dogs. The patio out back is delightful. Our party of four each had a cocktail. All the drinks were great. The food was excellent. We had an assortment of one tuna. One salmon. One curry and I had the mahi fish tacos which were phenomenal. Ive eaten fish tacos from California to Maine. These were some of the best. The service was also very good. Highly recommend read more

I loved this hidden charmer on the Main Street of a tourist town. I had walked by several times, thinking it was a just a casual bar. We were looking for a late lunch and popped in. The bar itself is more stunning than you would expect. A big vintage bar flanks the left side, tin ceiling, varnished wood and classic tile gave off a bit of an Art Deco vibe. Interesting music was playing too. We headed out the back into a lovely backyard oasis. What appears to have been the garage or coach house is now part restaurant and bar. They took great care in adding greenery to match the Ivy covering the extra building. I appreciated the artwork too. There's a fire pit for chilly evenings. The relaxing vibe was real. Our cocktails and food were delicious. My margarita was tart and exciting. My salad was huge and super fresh. Our server was incredible. She was so fun and friendly, which really made or experience even better. I will definitely return to this great little spot!! read more

First time here-came for the lake perch, which is getting a little hard to find on a regular basis. They were busy, but we were seated immediately and our server was with us right away. We loved the sort of art deco vibe of the bar and the general appearance of the interior. Our orders came quickly and were on point! VERY tasty and a good quantity for the price. Service was friendly and attentive through the whole meal, but not intrusive-the mark of.a great waiter. In summary-delicious food, great service, cool atmosphere, and friendly people-can't wait to get back! 5 stars across the board! read more

Stopped by before the drive back to Chicago. It looks like they expanded into the space next to the bar and painted the outside since the last time we were in town. They have a large outdoor area out back and to the side that we sat at. It was a Thursday night around 8 and there was a decent number of people there but it wasn't crowded. We got a drink and then the tacos and the perch sandwich. The food wasn't bad but also wasn't anything I would tell you that you needed to get. This place is a higher end bar with above average bar food. read more

Just a short hour drive, Casey's has been part of our tradition for a summertime drive to New Buffalo and lunch. We love their outdoor seating area, which I refer to as their "secret garden" because if you don't know it's there, you wouldn't know from the looks of the street view of the restaurant. We've consistently have had good food and service. This years trip was delayed by Gov. Gretchen and the Covid. So a late sunny September trip made it up for a few burgers and beers on the patio. Whew! We made it just in time. read more
