Visiting family in St. Joe & they took us for lunch cause they love this place, so we were excited to try it out. Really cool decor plus the staff seemed friendly enough & the menu selections were interesting...also surprisingly crowded for 2:00 on a Friday afternoon.
We ordered bbq briscuit, chili & wings, all of which arrived quickly with nice sized portions. Problem was...everything was just "ordinary"...not really that great. Briscuit was quite dry, not much taste & served on a terrible bun (maybe just old & stale ?). Chili needed some kind of additional spices (very bland) & the wings were nothing special...too bad. Maybe our expectations were too high, or perhaps the cook was having an off day (?)...but we were not impressed enough to want to return. In addition, the tables are jammed too close together making getting in & out very difficult.
PS: Potato salad was very good, however

Friend recommended this restaurant which is know for people from Chicago to drive just to have meal. Gorgeous outside sitting watching native garden but when food arrived you just forget about everything else. Menu is not big but anything on it is delicious. There were three of us so got chance to try 3 dishes and they were amazing and so tasty. Even presentation of rice is so colorful. Would drive there from Chicago area anytime again just to taste the food.

Always love visiting the Beach Bucket when we visit Warren Dunes State Park. Get some ice cream, especially a Waffo Taco! They have over 40 flavors, my favorite being the Macinack Island Fudge. Yummm! They also have some burgers and such, popcorn, and fudge.

We've started coming to Luisa's couple of years ago, and this continues to be our favorite breakfast place. They are busy so be prepared to wait 30 min to an hour for a table but it's so worth it! Also, the Dutch apple pancake is more like apple cake and it's huge. If you are in the area or passing by you must stop and try those pancakes.

Reviewed By Brad S - Chicago, Illinois, United States
Probably the most comprehensive spread of baked goods between Chicago and St. Joseph. You can select from many different coffee cakes, cookies, muffins, donuts, rolls, maybe a dozen different breads, and then get specialty coffees to wash it all down. And at least the few items we tried, bread, cookies, latte, were all excellent.

We've vacationed in the Union Pier area several times but somehow always manage to miss eating at this restaurant. This trip we said we definitely must try it. Our first night we decided to, but really just wanted to stay in our cottage and not eat out. We were literally 2 min. away so we ordered take out. I got the rib mac n cheese and my husband got the flat iron steak. We both were soooo disappointed. The mac n cheese was not cheesy at all. It was kind of a soupy mess. The "rib meat" was more like pulled pork, but stringy, grisly in some spots, and hard as a rock in other. Then it was drenched in bbq sauce on top. Now I love me some BBQ sauce, but this was ridiculous. My husband's steak was WAY under cooked when it was supposed to be medium. I'm pretty sure we still heard it moo. Also it was completely unseasoned. For $40 it was a tremendous let down. The portions were huge BUT does it really matter when you don't want to eat it?! Oh...and also I was upcharged for soup instead of salad. When asked what dressing I wanted I asked if there's any other options than salad. I was told I could get soup instead but never told there was an extra charge. Well...there was. It was only a $1 but still. Things like that should be brought to the customer's attention. FYI: Take out is picked up at the bar...which was crazy busy, and the bartender didn't really want to deal with take out orders so it took forever to get their attention. :(

In addition to supporting a local brewery that offers nice beers, we were extremely pleased with the food options that were offered. The food is fantastic and would recommend either the Wisconsin Dip or Brewben sandwichesThanks so much for taking the time to write a review! Come back and enjoy a pint with a sandwich anytime! You have excellent taste because those are our top two selling sandwiches. -Adri

The menu attempts to offer a different spin on several typical pub sandwiches. We ordered 3 different mels, the diablo, pulled pork, and bbq chicken. Bbq chicken is pulled, actually finely shredded...so much so that you really lose the taste that it is even chicken. All sandwiches said they came came with lettuce and pickles on the side which they did not on any of our plates. Paprika is heavy on the fries and both pulled pork and chicken. I like paprika but it was so heavy it was truly all I tasted the entire meal. Place is very clean and server was pleasant, but totally not impressed with the food at all. Also ordered the whiskey flight, didn’t find a favorite there either. We went on a Wednesday and the special was comfort food which was a pasta dish. One person in our group was torn between that and a sandwich. He asked her if the pasta was good? She suggested he stick with the sandwich because she felt the pasta was missing something and was just ok. That pretty much sums up the whole experience for us.

This is a stop you don't want to miss while your in Bridgman, Michigan. The famous Sherman's
Ice Cream is served here along with a warm welcome from the staff!! We really enjoyed our visits
to this soooo delicious ice cream shop while we were camping at Weko Beach, and highly recommend all of the Bridgman visitors to check it out!! They do have different hours during the off
season so check on that so you are sure they have service on the day you choose to go.
