Mietta's Review
Superb views of Corio Bay and the steampacket development. The selection of fish changes daily, check what's available and ask for it simply cooked. There's a good list of Geelong and District Wines some of which are also available by the glass.
Other published opinions
Age Good Food Guide 2008 "Resembling a houseboat sitting on the calming waters of Corlo Bay, the Pier has an almost exclusively seafood menu, ranging from the complex - scallops, braised belly pork and pomegranate molasses - to the comforting seafood chowder - and the classic - battered fish and chips"
The Age Good Food Guide 2006 "Fishermen's Pier never strays far from the seafood restaurant blueprint. The bristling masts of the Geelong marina punctuate the splendid views, and the menu runs from bisque to whole lobster."
