While I agree with the previous posters that the food is good at Doc Watson's, I'm really surprised to see this ranked as the #3 attraction in Toledo. It is no different than any other decent bar/restaurant and isn't something that someone with limited time in the city should go out of their way for. If you are a tourist... more

Looking to grab a bite and a beer? Doc's is the place. The menu offers a wide selection (more than the typical bar fare) and food is cooked to order. The burgers don't disappoint and the house specialties are equally good. Portions are large (leftovers are always a plus if you plan to stay after dinner and imbibe). Beer specials... more

To the previous commentor...don't go to a bar to get steak! Geesh! It's a bar!!! Doc's does just about everything well if you consider that's it's "bar food" (which I love). Homemade fries, great fried fish, and an amazing selection of sandwiches. The turkey reuben and DiCarlo are to die for. The chicken and tuna salads are great. Lighter fareof... more

While the atmosphere at Doc Watson's is alright for a strip mall bar, and they do have decent live music, which is what sucked me in, I'd advise eating dinner before you get there. The steak was low-grade vein steak and way overpriced. As for the beers, the selection is good - if you want to pay New York prices... more
