Steener’s Pub

So we come to Bemus Point several times a summer, we recently passed Steeners and thought we needed to try it. Went in tonight and have to say was a bit disappointed, not with the service, the waitress was very nice but there were a number of specials listed on the board but no description as to what they were. We had to ask our waitress to describe them all. Typically we are used to having at least a sheet given to us that tells us more about the specials.
One of the specials was poutine, well we really like poutine so decided to give it a try, classic poutine is cheese curds, Brown gravy over fresh cut fries, and being that we are in the land of cheese curds was pretty surprised to get fries with a bit of shredded cheddar and hardly any gravy, one of us ordered the shrimp boil which literally was shrimp coated in old bay, so much that it was too spicy hot too eat, another of us ordered the sled ride which was described to be tacos with shredded roast beef, the tacos being deep fried pita bread, they didn’t appear to be crisped at all from the fryer. Neither of these dishes had any kind of side dish with them, the shrimp was just a bunch of shrimp nothing else. Another of our party had a chicken salad, it was mixed green lettuce some onion and a few tiny diced tomatoes. The field greens were good but the chicken although cooked well had zero seasoning on it. I had the fish and chips which was pretty good.
Now finally for a pub I figured there would be a nice selection of tap beers, there were 3 domestics and 2 craft that was it… pretty disappointing.
Prices were reasonable just feel they need to up their game, with some very simple easy things that could make their clientele a bit happier and willing to come back.
We were told by the waitress that the chef has off on Mondays so we should come in on a Friday when he has some great specials… problem is we really don’t want to go back.

We have a place in Chautaqua and we’ve been in the area for just a few years. We’ve been exploring and trying out new places. We tried this one on a whim. We had been there before to drink and see some local bands (acoustic), so we wen’t back to finally try it for dinner. We had heard there was a new head chef (on their fb page) and people seemed to really talk him up, so we gave it a shot. This is a gem in the rough! I almost gave it 4 star because it’s a typical bar/​pub (in that it’s not going to win awards for looking nice or fancy). Truth is, it’s not horrible looking. You walk in and notice the bar right in front of you, to the left. It was full of patrons that were probably local usuals. Even with the dining room to the right, there’s no mistaking that it’s still a bar (place). The great thing about that is that it’s super casual. I can bring my infant daughter in there and no one would care too much if she got a little fussy. Anyway… onto the food!
The food = value, quality and you’ll leave happy. I got a gigantic steak with fries and a salad for $ 17. The steak was a del monoco steak (which is what I actually prefer). It must have been a 12 ounce, it was huge and I got a real good piece (very little fat to deal with, which isn’t always the case with less expensive steak). My guest got the «sled ride» which was prime roast between to piece of flat bread, with french fries and coleslaw (kinda like a «Pittsburgh»). I was actually envious of that.
Any restaurant that you go to and you enjoy the food immensely but see your date eating something different and it leaves you with envy… that’s a 5 star place for me. I’ll be back to try more. So glad we found this place. Give it a shot if you want a great meal without breaking the bank.

Came here for dinner right before we went to the beach boys tribute concert on the lake front.
Very cute inside with a pool table.
Very clean and wonderful friendly service.
Loved the specials served on Friday. I had the Turkey pasta. My turkey was seasoned perfectly and my pasta tasted wonderful.
Other notable favorites: Pot Roast Nachos, Irish French Fries and Dragon Balls.
Would come here again.

I had my first Guinness of St. Patrick’s Day at Steener’s this past weekend!
Truth be told, it was my first time visiting the Bemus Point/​Greenhurst pub and I had a blast! My friend had a burger and really enjoyed it. There was live music, a lot of people having a good time, good drinks, good food and holiday give-​aways. I can’t wait to get back and experience another night at Steener’s that isn’t St. Patrick’s Day.
Had I not already eaten prior to going to Steener’s, I definitely would have tried something off the menu. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. The bar was packed throughout the afternoon and everyone in the place was having a good time. My wife and I really liked the eclectic décor. Lots of random stuff on the walls, plus an arcade game and claw machine in the corner. Just an all-​around positive first experience of the place.
