Peeper's - Kelleys Island

Had a very very strange experience with the bartender/owner yesterday… My fiancé, his sibling, and myself were made to feel unwanted. We were the only people in the entire bar for most of our experience here. We had came for the strawberry shots (which are honestly pretty good) and had planned on staying for a little bit to talk amongst each other as this was the first bar we had stopped at. After our second drink (my first being a strawberry shot and my second drink being a water), the bartender handed my fiancé our check out of the blue. We felt like we were not welcome after this as we had not asked for the check and had told her prior we were planning on staying a bit. We had only been in the bar for about 15 minutes before she gave us the check. After we cashed out and got up to leave, the bartender stopped us and told my fiancé and I to come back when his sibling was “normal”. Not sure what that even means but it was so bizarre and off putting. For reference his sibling is neurodivergent, so sometimes he is not the best at socializing.

It's crazy how one of the best bbq joints in the area is right here on Kelly's island.

The bartender had an attitude and wasn’t very friendly. They also didn’t have any menus so we left since we didn’t know what they served. Seems like it could be a cool place if they provided menus and had better service.

Rude bartender. Sat at bar and she never even acknowledged that my friends and I were even there. Another group walked and was served right away. How this place is still in business is beyond me. Should have known that it was a lousy bar because there was just a few other people in there. And one of them were extremely rude to us as well. The strawberry shots are not worth the bother.

Everything is great but the ribs and hog rolls are on another level! Get the spicy sauce!! The to-go-to place on the Island to dance the night away and they have an awesome d.j. on the weekends!! Plus strawberry shots!!
