Docks is located in a historic building that housed a long time local favorite, Mer's Restaurant. Taken over and rebranded in 2006, Docks was even more recently remodeled and refreshed on both the inside and outside. The new owners built a 6,500 square foot outdoor Tiki Bar deck with 65 seats, so patrons can watch the beautiful sunset while enjoying a meal or after-dinner drinks. Come enjoy the natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere right on the bluff side of beautiful Bangs Lake!
Five star all around, a little far from where I live but worth every drive. We come here often and enjoy it very much. Food and service are great but the view and atmosphere is amazing.
Premier dining on a deck overlooking Bangs Lake. The service was attentive, prompt, and friendly, & the food was spot-on. The beer was cold & refreshing too.
Nice relaxing place. Lunch was great. Thick, cool and fresh. Service was what you would expect. Attentive but not pushy. Good background music. Looking to forward to coming back some evening or weekend night!
