I met a friend at Hoke not Inn on Friday afternoon. The whiskey sour I had was excellent, but the cheese quesadilla we shared was very, plain and there was literally nothing in there but cheese—I couldn’t taste any other spices or flavors. We asked them to add chicken so there were cubes of cooked chicken breast added, but again, no spices. They had chopped onions, black, olives, and lettuce, and tomatoes with salsa on the side and sour cream, but it still wasn’t a very tasty dish.
The atmosphere was rather dark indoors and on the porch since it was raining and they had not removed the screens from the outside of the windows, you couldn’t see out but it was at least a little bit brighter.
The truly bright spot of the experience was our server, Thomas. He was friendly and attentive and kindly laughed at my jokes.
So overall, it was not my favorite place to eat in the Fennville area, but the service was very very good.

This restaurant may be a bit off the beaten path and may not look like much from the outside, but it was one of the best places I have visited in a while. The service was very good and the food was wonderful. Exposed log beams and a somewhat dark main dining room make thus feel like a place you might find in the far northern parts of Michigan. However, there is an additional room built from glass reminiscent of a greenhouse, which is very cozy and unique. The burger was one of the better ones I have had recently. The meat was good quality and the bun was fluffy and toasted. The fries were also very good! If you are in the area and are looking for some good quality food without the frills, this is an excellent choice and worth traveling a bit out of the way to visit.

The food was mediocre and the service was slow. The pop tasted horrendous. Not sure if it was the ice or what but it didn’t taste right. Nothing really to write home about. Only reason I gave a 3 star was because the food was at least edible.

A friend recommended this spot. We both had side salads, lettuce was all fluff and partly rotten soggy brown My husband ordered a Bacon cheeseburger & onion rings The rings were ok, the burger was a hockey puck awful bun burned I ordered the Perch Sandwich my bun was grilled on the flat top and was black & crispy...the bottom of the bun was wet WATER I ended up eating just the perch IT WAS VERY GOOD We didn't get a visit from the server until we were 1/2 into the meal
We don't recommend this spot

We had a very nice dinner at the Inn. Would recommend the Burgers and onion rings. Also Loved how the place was decorated.

I’ve been stopping here for breakfast and lunch for many years now. Even though I’m only in town a few times a year, it’s my go-to stop for a relaxing meal experience. I’ve never had a bad meal yet! Keep up the good work.

Avoid the crowds at Saugatuck and get a mushroom burger here. You will not be disappointed. Self seating is awkward but food and service make up for it
