The Fish Shak Details

The Fish Shak is located on the main deck of the Boardwalk. With a casual atmosphere and delicious bites, this spot is ideal for families and folks looking for a quick meal before heading out on an island or Lake Erie adventure.

The hand breaded walleye and perch come out of the fryer nice and crisp everytime. Choose a classic fish sandwich or opt for a basket complete with tartar sauce and a side of french fries. Round out your meal with a soda or cold one from one of the two bars nearby.

There really is something amazing about soaking in the lake breezes and enjoying locally caught fish at the same time. This type of appreciation for Lake Erie is what Put-in-Bay is all about. The friendly, easy-going Boardwalk is known as a favorite gathering place for locals and tourists alike.

The Boardwalk

The Boardwalk is divided into the Upper and Main Deck but wonderful, open atmosphere affects the entire place equally.

The Main Deck

Two bars sit near the Fish Shak. The Burgee Bar serves a mean Riptide Rum Punch along with other delicious handcrafted frozen cocktails. Beer is available in bottles and on tap and live music plays every weekend during the summer season.

Clawdaddy’s Bar occupies prime real estate right next to the water and includes a smoking section. This small, charming bar has a full cocktail list as well as wine and beer available.

The Little Galley is on deck to serve up family favorites from Black Angus Burgers to white meat Chicken Strips and French Fries! Rounding out the Main Deck is Book’s Seafood, which serves up gourmet fare at an affordable price. Dig into heaping plates of Alaskan King Crab, Live Maine Lobster, Key West Shrimp and New Zealand Mussels.
No matter what, don’t miss out on the famous, some may even say infamous, Lobster Bisque. Made with real Maine lobster, diners can pick a regular bowl or bread bowl. This divine dish is in such high demand here, you can order from one of the three concessions and have it delivered to you wherever you sit.

The Upper Deck
