Cozy place with some badass burgers. Started with a Paloma edged with Old Bay Salt and hubby a local IPA. The meal began with a kale salad topped with grapes, brown sugar glazed pecans, avocado, and lemon vinaigrette. It was so tasty. Hubby got a station burger with onion rings. I got a Blind Pig Burger. Hubby said the rings were some of the best he had with a nice crisp. I’m going to say my burger was the second best one I’ve ever had and I’ve had some good burgers in my life. Cooked perfect. Bun had a little crunch. Bacon nice and smoky. You could tell the burger was top notch.

Although this place has been around since 2015, we dined here for the first time and loved it! It's small with limited seating so, you might want to call for a reservation. We had craft cocktails, a couple of tasty appetizers plus the orange chicken, the bolognese and the fried rice as entress. All were delicious and the service was excellent.

Well curated menu with an oddly Korean flair. Everything was great. Service, craft cocktails, everything.

Ran out of 2 dishes.The dishes we came for. It’s Tuesday. ABC Chicken sauce looked gelatinous. Wasn’t particularly hot when it arrived. Burger was excellent. Fries were undercooked. Disappointed as we usually come a couple of times to dine here while up north. Won’t be back this trip.

I seriously can’t say enough good things about The Paper Station. Every time I go, the experience is consistently amazing.

The staff is always super friendly, even when it’s packed. You can tell they work hard and genuinely care about making sure you have a great time.

And the food? So good. Whether you’re in the mood for something a little more elevated or just craving a solid burger and fries, they’ve got it all.

We waited a long time for lunch to arrive, and two of three entrées arrived wrong. Instead of apologizing or fixing the orders, our server told us how we “should have ordered.” After the delay, my friends kept the incorrect sandwiches out of hunger but didn’t like them, so the food just went to waste. Our starter – the deviled eggs – was watery, overcooked, and tasteless and the only item comped. My Hudson’s Maurice salad had just three tiny pieces of meat, was drowning in dressing, and overall, a strange flavor profile. I would’ve sent all the dishes back, but, sadly, I didn’t think they were capable of improving them. The bill was still over $80! Really disappointed.

The food is the best in Harbor Springs. Fresh and not too heavy. My husband got the pork fried rice and said it was the best he has ever had!

Dietary restrictions: We do not have dietary restrictions but the waitress asked and was very accommodating.

My wife and I were here 3 years ago and I remembered the food fondly. We just went in at 8 o’clock to try it again. They close at 9, and we already said to ourselves if they want us to leave at 9 and we aren’t done we can get to-go boxes and leave. We sat there with nobody coming to even say a word to us for roughly 7 minutes. We could see them glancing at us from the kitchen, I overheard someone say “did they leave?” Then eventually a woman came to us and said “hi, sorry we are closed” we said “I thought you closed at 9?” She said “the kitchen closes at 8:30”, need I remind you “we showed up at 8:00”. We saw the bad reviews almost all due to bad service and they were deserved. I will stop recommending this place to people.
