"Been visiting Schooners practically since it first opened on 10th west. There was a time on 15th that the food sucked, but vastly improved once they moved to where they are now. That said. We never thought we'd see the day that "shrinkflation", aka, "trumpflation", would hit Schooners. Simply got appetizers tonight. 1/2 the size they used to be!!??! Holy Crap!! Food was still good. Service good. Food: just half what it was not long ago!??! Damn!"

- Alan K.

"I came to try this place out with some coworkers and it's a nice spot to get some drinks and to watch sports. They also have an outside seating area for the people who like to smoke. Only downside there's no TV's outside. It can get really packed and service does tend to lag at that point, but other than that it was a nice experience."

- Larry

"Everything was great. From the second we arrived to the moment we left. We were a large group and was seated right away. Order taken and food delivered in a timely manner. Waiter kept checking on us if we needed anything. Will definitely return "
