    My experience here was just okay, I'm not sure if I didn't order the right things. The turkey sausage had absolutely no taste or flavor. The texture seemed fake. The only thing I like was the yellow Yukon breakfast potatoes. The pancake was dry. The eggs were okay. It wasn't worth the hour and half drive. We might try again if we are in the area and try some different things. But we wouldn't make another random trip. The service was nice and was very cute. But that's it.

    The food was amazing!! Our waiter was great! The restaurant is so cute! It was very busy but the wait wasn't too long & there is staff outside making specialty drinks(for a Price) while you wait. I literally can't wait to go back!!!

    This place is a hidden gem in Sandusky. We came here for breakfast a little later on the day on Sunday. No wait but the restaurant was pretty full. It has plenty of parking and is very cutely decorated. Bathrooms are clean. Food was amazing. Our whole party got various drinks, and they have a wide selection of combos. Bloody Mary was highlight along with their coffee. All of our food was delicious. The quinoa was super good and interesting almost sweet. Eggs Benedict were cooked perfectly. Steak and chorizo tasted fresh and delicious. Our server was amazing. Ver nice and brought a littl birthday treat for us. Food took some time and she was very nice and kind about it. Honestly the wait for the food did not phase me since everything was made so fresh.

    Blueberry pancake margarita
    Amanda D.

    Solid 4 stars. I really appreciated the fact that the menu had a list of local business where they got ingredients. There was a lot of local crossover, which was exciting. I had the buttermilk stack with sausage links and a blueberry pancake margarita. I feel like I won the drink choice competition (that my friends didn't even know we were in). The drink was delicious, the pancakes were solid and there was more than enough butter given to us. Service was ok. Super friendly but a bit too much for me. Would definitely recommend this stop to others in the area.

    Caramel macchiato, iced

    Caramel macchiato, iced 9/10 Pretty good. Def needs more caramel for my liking. Buckeye coffee 10/10 Good flavor. Idaho Potato pancakes 10/10 Really good. I liked the little onion chunks in there. Probably one of the best potato pancakes we've ever had. Classic Eggs Benedict 7/10 Gross Hollandaise, it's like a cheesy bearnaise sauce from a packet, not actually Hollandaise. Eggs cooked great, not poached, but over medium, which I liked a lot. Grilled Yukon Gold Home fries 9/10 Cooked well, soft. I guess they coulda been a little crispier. Homemade Corned beef hash 9/10 Definitely homemade, tastes much better than the can. Needed a little more potatoes, and they could have been diced a little smaller. Daisyfield smoked ham & eggs 8/10 Comes with a ton of food. Ordered eggs over medium, they came more over hard. Ham was good. Pancakes were good. Rye toast was good. Chocolate chip pancakes 7/10 Kids said there was too many chocolate chips in them.

    My family went on a Thursday so it wasn't very crowded and we were sat immediately. The booth didn't look like it was cleaned and there was a big chunk of pancake on the floor. Other than that the environment was great and the food was really good!

    On our weekend trip to see friends at go to Cedar Point, we made a stop at this very fun and delicious spot. We'd absolutely come back again. We tried the pancakes (of course), steak and eggs, turkey sausage, home fries, sourdough toast, and omelettes among the four of us. We also enjoyed French press coffee, the blueberry pancake margarita, a blackberry mimosa, and a yummy coffee drink with bourbon that had a cute, long name I don't remember. Our server Adrianna was very attentive and helpful, and even gave us great tips on parking and rides at Cedar Point. We really love the way their menu highlights other local businesses. Love the mutual community support! Overall, service was great and the food was delicious. If we come back to town, we'll see you again!

    Chicken Biscuit bowl
    Lizz M.

    Heard nothing but good reviews about this place so decided to check it out before leaving town. The wait was 1.5 hrs and it really did take that long. We had a big party and said first available table we'll take. While we waited we were able to be outside and enjoy corn hole, a frisbee game as well as play with chalk. They also have a coffee cart outside to enjoy while waiting. Finally got seated and we ended up being split between two tables and a booth, but that was fine. It was worth the wait! Everyone loved their food. The kids ate everything up. All the food was cooked to perfection, even the bacon was nice and crispy, not half cooked like other places. A couple people ordered the cinnamon swirl cakes and they were not overly sweet, just enough and I'd get them next time. My chicken biscuit bowl could've had more chicken, but it was filling! I tried to eat the whole thing but it's a lot. Others ordered the burger with the waffles for the buns and flavorful and perfect pairings. They are busy and the food took a while but it's worth it.

    I had a fabulous experience at Sandusky Bay Pancake House for breakfast. The menu is HUGE and with it being so large it is a bit overwhelming however you are going to find multiple things that you want to try/order which is awesome. The place is so cutely decorated, and the staff is very friendly. We went on a Sunday morning and it was very packed. Outside they had a small cart offering their specialty coffees and tons of people ordered while they were waiting for their table. This was a nice addition and helped ease our wait. Just know they do not take reservations even with large parties as we were but they handled our large amount with ease and got us in as quickly as they could. All the food was really good and fresh. They use locally sourced products, and you can definitely tell by the quality. All of the meats were really good from the ham to the sausage to the corned beef. It all was very flavorful and cooked to perfection. The pancakes were SO good and buttery. I am not a big pancake eater but these were awesome! The star of the show is definitely the cooker biscuits! If you do not get them with your meal definitely be sure to order them as a side. You do not want to miss out on them. I wish they offered a homemade jam rather than the packets on the table but nonetheless everything was amazing. They also offered lots of specialty options from peach cobbler French toast, to tons of different eggs benedicts and fun options. If you have not been in here, you definitely have got to check it out. The value is good for the amount of food you get, especially with them using places that are local. I love supporting places like this! I cannot wait to be back and try so many more things.

    This place was Awesome. Specialty food items were plentiful. Their drink menu was very creative, the service was very polite, informative and on point. The ambiance was very cool. They have a VW van (minuter made) as a hostess stand. We'll come back again.

Pretty much this has really become my favorite place to grab some much needed sustenance when inside Cedar Point as the Foldovers are all really good and definitely unique as I haven't seen any other parks doing sandwiches like this! The crispy chicken one is delicious it's full of lettuce tomato crispy chicken and some ranch dressing to make it just that much better with that yummy Foldover bread which kinda resembles a pita bread and you know it just fits! The Italian one is also really good too as it's filled with Italian meats and some veggies with a vinaigrette to ad some more zest to something that's already yummy! The meatless sausage one thought is also definitely where it's at as it's also one of the best vegetarian options in the park this Foldover sandwich packs some flavorful goodness inside just get it and you'll see what I mean! They accept Dinning Pass here so definitely take advantage of that or don't forget to use your season pass for a discount off your purchase! The Foldovers come with fries or a side salad so just let them know and you'll be all good with your sandwich! They also have chicken tenders here but it's all about the folded goodness so just get one you'll be thankful you did! Overall delicious goodness inside the park you soo know I'll be coming here again soon for some Foldover yumminess!

This is a super cool public market hall in downtown Sandusky with maybe 15ish (just a guess) local businesses like a bakery, bowling alley, axe throwing game space, ice cream shop and boutiques. This is a cool place to spend an hour or two just browsing and supporting local while grabbing some dessert. The building has some type of history to it which I was unable to readily find online (boo, that is so odd). But the history is paid homage in the design of this space, with old timey photos of Sandusky and Cedar Point blown up on the walls and little stories to accompany them. The design is actually brilliant. It's a cool mixture of old school heritage meets modern rustic vibes. It makes you want to stop and look. The businesses in this building are open during the pandemic, just make sure to check with each business directly before visiting as most of the hours are likely changed. I stopped by here extremely quickly (I do not go out much during the pandemic) to pick up some pre-paid birthday treats from Bake Erie. It has a spacious, accessible parking lot and is just a joy to browse. Check it out for yourself, than continue exploring the surrounding area of local businesses... and Lake Erie :)
