Restaurants near Bear Lake

“I LOVE the Lakeside! As a local, I get there whenever I can - I only wish they were open for dinner. But their burgers are to die for - my favorite in the area. Their breakfasts are also really marvelous. I always get the Hippie Omelet, because it's truly great EVERY time. Also, try the tater tots. Really, really good.

Wait staff are super nice and very attentive. Because they're small and popular, sometimes there's a wait, but I think the longest I've ever had was maybe 15 minutes. Well worth it!

Their prices are reasonable - $10-20 - and I invariably get two meals out of my servings. In short, if you get up early enough to eat there (I work nights, so I often don't, to my sorrow) they're the best in Bear Lake by a mile!”

“Excellent service and dinner. We ordered the crab stuffed salmon. It was delicious! The service was excellent, and there was a nice choice of red and white wine.”

“Great food awesome staff and great atmosphere!!!! I highly recommend the black and blue burger it’s delicious oh and I can’t forget about the moose knuckles.”

“Arcadia Bluffs South Course is an absolute gem. The layout is smart, challenging, and beautifully maintained. It’s a completely different vibe from the Bluffs course—tree-lined fairways, rolling elevation changes, and pure golf. Every hole feels intentional. The greens were quick and true, and the pace of play was smooth all the way through. Staff was welcoming and professional from start to finish. If you’re in the area, this course is a must-play. Easily one of the best inland tracks in Michigan.”

“stopped in the big rig next door and walked over for a bite after a long looong day on the road... was amazing to have a well cooked meal!!! friendly staff, clean and pleasant! truly surprised! a great find!!!!! hope to go back one day!”

“Excellent food and service!”

“Ar adia is lucky to have this small coffee shop that also serves breakfast fare. Their issue is they are too small for the amount of patronage. This leads to large wait times and cold food.
The food was good, but not very hot and took over 20 minutes to be ready. The young ladies in the kitchen appeared overwhelmed, but stayed calm and powered through the rush.”

“Totally delicious - some of the best homemade ice cream I’ve ever had!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Sweet Vibes! Excellent communication and even better cupcakes. S'mores, shortbread, and red velvet were amazing!”

“Our second time eating there with dad and we are not disappointed. Great food and superior service. Thank you again for a good time! We will be back!”

“The staff are very friendly and the food was fantastic.”

“Went there last night 1st time in awhile, had the Cameron’s aLaDiabla best single dish ever at a Mexican restaurant! Just the right amount of heat shrimp cooked to perfection. Thank you”

“Best STAFF, golf, food & lodging in the state of Michigan. Hands down. Cannot wait to get back there!!”

“Lahey's Pub is a local favorite -- great people serving creative cocktails and the vibe is laid-back and relaxed. Laura, Jamil and the rest of the gang are always welcoming. Grab some pizza or a salad from Portage Point Pizzeria and Cafe' with an ice-cold beer from Lahey's Pub and relax on the porch. Beautiful Portage Lake makes for an amazing view! It doesn't get any better than that.”

“We love this restaurant. They have the best fish dinners on Friday nights. We get takeout usually. Their breakfast is also good. And the staff is great as well.”

“Good food, fresh veggies from farm”

“My husband recently said “ I miss how pizza used to be.. I just want a slice of good pizza” We were in kaleva Saturday and I convinced him to stop in Three Sisters for a pizza. It was our first time since the new owners. So we had no expectations other than I didn’t have to cook lunch. 😂 We ordered a large pepperoni and banana pepper pizza. When it was brought out it looked like a masterpiece with the big pepperonis on it. After we took our first bites we were in shock. It was the exact pizza taste we had been missing. The toppings were fresh and plentiful. Unlike other places they are not stingy with the toppings. It had a good cheese pull, sauce seasoned just right, and the crust lightly brushed with butter. I had 3 pieces, which I never do, and my husband had 5. It was just so good. We left and he said “that was what pizza should taste like.” Thankful to have Three sisters only 12 minutes away from home. Cannot wait to get our next pizza. If you haven’t tried it yet.. do it!! 🍕 and it won’t kill your wallet. Very fair pricing.”
