We stopped by Joe’s Friendly Tavern after visiting Sleeping Bear Dunes, and it was the perfect place to relax and grab a meal. Our group of 10 was seated comfortably, and the waitress was super friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was cozy and warm, exactly what you want after a day of exploring.

We ordered the Caesar salad and burgers, and everything was tasty and delicious. Definitely a great spot to stop for good food and friendly service. I highly recommend...
This place reminds me of the taverns in northern Wisconsin my family went to. The wooden bar, wood paneled walls and gas fireplace all added to the ambiance. The food was delicious. We had the cheeseburger and fries and prime rib sandwich and they didn’t disappoint. I’d definitely go there again.
Best clam chowder I have ever had. My husband really liked the chili as well. Our turkey panini was very good and big enough to split. People were so friendly. Jessica was our server and did a very nice, efficient, friendly job with us. Visit if you can.
