Schooner's at Shumway Marina - Rochester, NY

The food at Schooners is fantastic. The french-dip with au jous is a real treat. The sandwhich is served with thinly sliced roast beef and melted provolone cheese on crusty french bread. You can get this sandwhich with the standard side of potato chips, which are store bought and plain or choose from a selection of sides. The Anonymous Critic suggests getting an order of sweet potato fries. Served with honey, these fries are sweet and savory.

In the mood for something different? Try the muffaletta. Shaved ham, salami, and provolone accompany an olive salad in light vinagarette on focaccia flatbread to make this sanwhich.

Along with Coke products, Schooners is a full serive bar with a wide selection of beer on tap. A full menu can be found here.

Seating at Schooners is open, so the restaurant is closed in the fall and winter months. It is nice to sit at dinner in the evening and watch the boats come in to dock for the night.

One thing to keep in mind, however. Because Schooners is primarily a bar, be sure to have you ID. The sign posted at our evening stop requested 2 forms of ID, one HAD to be a New York State ID. This could potentially create a probelm for out of state guests, although we had none that night.

Serive at Schooners is average. Most of the waitstaff appear to be high-school age girls. Overall, I have to say that eating at Schooners is a highlite of our trip and something we look forward to all year.
