Port Clinton

Port Clinton, a Lake Erie city known as the gateway to the Lake Erie Islands and Put-in-Bay, has a bar scene built around its waterfront - BarFinder lists 35 venues here, led by classic bars and sports bars, with Burns Brew House and a couple of gastropubs adding some craft variety. Real local spots like Lagoon Saloon, Catawba Inn, and Dock's Beach House Restaurant reflect the lake-town, boating-season character the city is known for.
