Sandy Bob's Patio - Carey

Another great little dive bar on the outskirts of Carey, Ohio.

My aunt shared with us a tv clip about places to go in the 419 area code. The hidden secret of this bar/club/restaurant is its' half pound burgers cooked in cast iron skillets in the oven. Sounds like a neat place to go to in Carey, OH we all agreed. Three of us got Bacon Cheeseburgers with lettuce, tomato, onions and pickles. Mom opted on chicken and waffles; 3 tenders, waffle, fries and syrup. The burgers had crispy bacon and fresh condiments, beautiful presentation. I missed the crusty exterior you get from a fried burger and it should have had some seasoning. The fries were ok, the tater tots better. The chicken tenders were small and bought in frozen, but Mom liked it. Cans of pop only a buck. Fountain drinks were not from coke or pepsi and the cola had a funky taste so we opted for cans of Diet Coke. What struck us first when we walked in was the lack of regular tables and chairs. We found a high top table with barstools which were really uncomfortable. We swapped the chairs at the bar that had a back, for 3 of us. Mom had some difficulties in and out. Unfortunately for these reasons we won't be able to come back. The restroom was adequate but not designed for handicapped folks the toilet was short and small. No rails. A hard pass. Meals were about $14.00 each. I wanted waffle fries but forgot to order. We spent several hours there visiting and the staff was very pleasant. A good day out for the girls! Wheelchair accessibility: No. Bathrooms were not handicapped ready.

This is a quaint little restaurant/bar on State Route 23 North of Carey, Ohio. We stopped for lunch after seeing it on WTOL, Dine in the 419. I would have to agree, the food is very good. I would speculate that there could be times where seating might be challenging, but worth the wait. They also have seating outside that will come in handy. We will be going back for some more items from their menu.

Food's great and bartender was great, but don't be in a hurry. Food was a little slow to come out, but worth it.

Great food!!! Burgers are a 10/10! Service was amazing, Bailey was a great server and Rob is a wonderful cook! Definitely recommend!
