dinner and a show. good looking staff, better looking fish tank, and absolutely delicious food. i could eat a whole loaf of that celery bread. everything is 10 stars. don’t let me into the kitchen because i’ll have to kiss the chef.
We have been going to the EBH for over 50 years and it remains a constant source of the lightly breaded Lake Erie perch, some deeeeelishuuusss (nice and moist the way I like it!!!) cole slaw and their signature fried CELERY BREAD. The new(ish) rooftop deck/patio off the TERRACE ROOM remains a terrific spot for fabulous food and drinks in Port Dover. Just be forewarned......even though they have a terrific vented and slanted pergola roof and misters (some were not working on our outside section!!!) the rooftop can get VERY HOT!!!!

Service was outstanding. Their options for no dairy or beef were limited. They went beyond expectations to ensure I could have something and there was no cross contamination. Food was very good. We both had chicken wraps. The atmosphere is nostalgic but very well taken care of and clean. The staff were excellent.
This is our second visit but our family has been countless times and everytime the staff are amazing, the food is hot and on the table faster than you would think is possible and even with the insane speed of service the food quality doesn't suffer at all. Tonight we had some perch meals, a battered cod meal a kits perch and fries as well as a kids chicken fingers and fries. I had the mushroom soup which was very good and I love that they added Celery and carrots into the mix. I also had the battered cod which appeared to be your standard beer battered cod but the batter was crispy on the outside and yet light on the inside without the typical greasy puddle you usually find. This restaurant has is a historical part of Port Dover since the 1940's and its still going strong. This is definitely a must eat here location when you are in Port Dover. Kudos to the staff, Rose is always a delight!
I haven’t been to the Terrace Room in years and was raving about the celery bread while visiting Port Dover recently. We decided to stop in for lunch and loved it, it still looked the same! Our server was fast and friendly. We had the perch meals and everything tasted as great as I remembered. Will definitely be back soon.
Absolutely love having dinner and drinks here with friends, family, large groups or just a date night with hubby. Perch and celery bread for sure. Chicken wings, battered mushrooms or a excellent salad. This place holds many memories as well as excellent food. Highly recommend!
Super food and nice terrace view. Very fast service !
