The present review summarizes the progress made in the area of plasmonics-based fiber optic sensors during the last decade (2007–2017). The review is in continuation with the previous review focused on the developments made in the above area during the timeframe of almost 25 years (i.e., 1990–2006). In addition, other important reviews are also discussed in order to widen the scope of the work. This work is focused on review of four types of plasmonics-based optical fiber sensors viz., single mode fiber, multimoded fiber, microstructured fiber, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), and use of two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene, MoS2 etc. The structures, performance parameters, and results related to some important works have been discussed. Based on the present state-of-the art, the future scope and related fields have been discussed.
