Bay House Oyster Bar & Restaurant

Bay House Oyster Bar & Restaurant is known for its fresh oyster bar and wood-fired Argentine grill, with seafood and steaks alongside a full bar, a large wine selection and creative cocktails. In the same complex on the bayfront, Pier 6 Rooftop Bar & Restaurant offers a more casual menu of specialty cocktails, local beers and chef-prepared dishes.

Bay House has an oyster bar, a second-floor mezzanine, private rooms and a speakeasy, with indoor and outdoor dining that looks out over Presque Isle Bay. Pier 6 has two rooftop decks with indoor and seasonal outdoor seating and a kids menu, and its kitchen stays open late. Both locations host private events, and Bay House takes reservations. The restaurants are on Sassafras Pier in downtown Erie's bayfront area.
