Ethanology Distillation Cocktail Bar • $$

“Shannon, Tyler, and Nick are class acts. True artists that really know what they’re doing and will leave you speechless and broke if you’re not careful. Can’t help but return every time while “up north.” They’re that great and that consistent. GO HERE if in need of indulgent libations. I would be shocked if you were disappointed.
P.S. Leave with some coffee if you’re a die hard fan.“

Between four of us we had the swordfish special, crawfish étouffée, shrimp and grits, chicken Alfredo, cobbler, and bananas foster. Every bite was better than the one before - we all agreed! I’m from the south, so to find this NOLA gem in northern Michigan was nothing short of magical!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Went into Stone Hound Brewery for the first time. I have to say and keep in mind I don’t talk much or spread my thought process often. So moving on. I had the nachos and the chicken sandwich. If ur in the area and can support a locally owned business. By far this is one I would recommend. Kudos to stone hound for the fantastic food and beer. Awesome!! If you are apprehensive about trying a vegan option….don’t be….this place is awesome!“

“A local told us we needed to visit here while in town and we are SO glad we came. If you are a fan of sour beers, they have a great Jolly Pumpkin brand selection.

The vibe of this building is second to none. Spooky yet cozy at the same time. Service was top tier. Our server, Penashe, was always on time and personable. She helped curate the Jolly Pumpkin experience.

We got truffle fires as an appetizer and they were some of the best truffle fries I’ve had. Fresh, truffle, Parmesan cheese coated goodness. The pepperoni pizza we got was AMAZING. I love good pizza, and this was GOOD pizza. Crust was perfect, dough was house made, perfect ration of pepperoni. We finished our meal off with the Pumpkin Cake and it was 10/10.

Overall, this place is a local legend. If you’re in the area, you MUST come here.“

“Would I recommend? Hmm. Our server was great ( I wish I got her name) but she was overwhelmed and they were under staffed. The food? Not great. Everything was overdone. The cornbread was dry. I ordered the seared tune salad and the tuna was more medium well. The music could have been a little more upbeat for a weekend. While we all ( a party of 6) ate our food, it wasn’t the greatest. It may have just been an off night, every restaurant has some. I felt bad for our server. She was such a sweetheart. She can’t control the cooking staff or management. Management needs to learn that they need to take better care of their staff to make sure that patrons experience is above satisfied. Will I come back? Maybe. But it might be a long while? Will I recommend? If someone asks me about I will be honest. Will I come out and say you have to go there? No. But I won’t discourage anyone from trying it.“

Bowers Harbor Vineyards Wineries • $$

“I like this winery because the staff pays 0 attention to you, which is a great thing in my opinion! You can wander around and do whatever you want. Lots of seats outdoors. I was able to see the grapes still on the vine. I had a riesling, very good. Not bad prices for a flight. around 20 bucks for 2 people.“
