Put-in-Bay?

Sometimes The Menus (Cinci band) play at the Beer Barrel. They're a lot of fun. But yeah, expect to be fondled by gross 40-somethings. :(

Have to disagree, saw them at Flanigans a few weeks ago and they were terrible.

They play the same music that they played 5-10 years ago when they played on the WNCI stage during OSU games.

Well, I've only seen them a few times, so perhaps they do play the same stuff. It's all new to me, since I rarely get to see them.

Didn't know if you ever saw them at any OSU games.

I saw them once at Tommy's Pizza after a game. The other time was at Put-in-Bay.

I'm with Thump on the Menus - First 5 times they were great, last couple of times had to find anther bar. Not sure of the name but the Omish band that plays heavy stuff is pretty entertaining (usually at Beer Barrel)

We got one of the package deals at a Cedar Point hotel, so we're staying on the mainland. Thanks for tips on the ferries - that's a BIG help.

Somebody mentioned golf cart rental - how much is that, and what place offers it?

I figured barhopping would be on the to-do list, as well as some dining and the winery. I'm thinking about renting a jetski too. Probably not in that order though.

The band is the Earthquakers and they no longer play at the Beer Barrel unfortunately.

A band I like is JD Currant that play at the boathouse.

But just the mix of different bands at different bars is what is great I think about PIB.

If you take the Jet Express to PIB, then you there will be a rental for golf carts at the end of the dock. Otherwise, right along the main road near all of the bars are some other rental places.

I'd pass on the jetski rental (at least at the Bay). You'll have a better time staying dry and doing things on the island. Besides, you'll probably need the rental money to cover your bar tab. :)

OK, when you guys say beer is expensive, what kind of prices are you talking about? How much do the standard domestics tend to cost? I tend to drink craft beers (I'm sure Great Lakes is in plentiful supply) - how much am I looking at there?

 

[Hubbard]

I wish I remember how much the beers cost...but yes bring your own. We brought a 1.75L bottle of captain with us and it made thigns way cheaper.

Can't help ya. Never been

Oops... Duplicate post.

Go to the Roundhouse and buy your beer by the bucket. About $20 a bucket, I think.

I haven't been up there in years. I'm going to have to put that on my list of things to do this summer.
