“We had a wonderful experience. Susan (the wine whisper) was very very knowledgeable about the wines. Treated us like we were family. Something for everyone including juice!!!”
“GET THERE EARLY or call ahead! This wonderful little shack is known for its pretzel bread sammies. They only make a handful of the pretzel bread each day, so make sure you order yours in advance to try it out! The staff here is always friendly, hard-working, and working quickly and efficiently to give you a great sammie and experience. It's great to see them up their merch game over the last few years. Buy some cheese curds and go next door to Carlson's for some smoked fish or jerky! Of course, for a snack before or after the sammie! ;) <3 A Native.”
“Our stay was great! The communication and check in went smoothly, the room was just as described and we enjoyed our stay. I believe that there was only one other room of guests but there were many patrons in the dining/bar area each evening and it was not noisy at all. The bedding was extremely comfy and the amenities were top notch! I highly recommend The Riverside Inn!”
“You must get the Brussel Sprouts, enough for 3-4 people! Service can be slow at peak times but friendly. My vodka drink was weak. The food was served hot and was delicious. They'll let you substitute turkey insted of corned beef for the Reuben. The menu has something for everyone. The atmosphere of the inside is dated and could use updating. The outside of the Lodge was beautifully decorated with fall items.Wheelchair accessibility: No large steps. Restaurant is one level even to outside.”
“We have been here many times over the years and the taste and quality of the food is consistent. Indoor and outdoor dining is available. They have a full ball. Service is good. Their chowder is very good. Fish and chips are also very good. Not greasy at all. Leland itself is a lovely up north town.”
“Absolutely awesome...Absolutely awesome... best coffee I've had in years. Super good service. CleanDietary restrictions: They had sugar free vanilla latte!!”
“Great ice cream, nice people, good location. Would be 5 stars if they were ever open!! I'm forced to go to the one down the street that doesn't have Ashbys ice cream - no Michigan pothole! Stay open till 8 like you advertise! Open on Sundays at least during high season!”
“One of the best views on the peninsula. We come up yearly to do wine/cider tastings in the area and Suttons Bay Ciders is a must visit! Great staff, great atmosphere, great ciders!”
“Absolutely amazing. Great views and wine. Service was OUTSTANDING.We had our dog with us and they treated her and us so well, they went above and beyond.Bob is the absolute best(Did she get her own stack of salami? She did! )PS: the pretzels are insanely good. I’m not even a pretzel person but I’d come back for more.”
“Cool, unsuspecting restaurant. Had the tasting menu. The soup was excellent, and the walleye didn't disappoint either. Wasn't very fond of the dessert but to each their own. Bar tender/server was a nice guy who was enthusiastic about the food and drinks. With 3 tasting menus ordered in our party I expected the chef to come out and say hello. As a chef for the last 20 years this is the best fine dining meal I have had in the Grand Traverse area. Highly recommended.”
“Outstanding food, loved the steak burrito and barbacoa and chicken tacos on freshly made corn tortilla! The hot salsa is wonderful. You'll be so glad you stopped. So friendly and fast too.”
“We went to Lylah's (Suttons Bay) for breakfast. Oh my goodness our sandwiches (Eggscelenta and Morning Hambition) were DELICIOUS! The coffee was good, and the staff was lovely!”
“Finally made it to the mothership! We love 9 bean rows croissants and scones and it was fun to see where it all comes from. Tried their blueberry muffin for the first time, the crusty sugar top versus the giant juicy blueberries in the rest of the muffin was the perfect delicious contrast. Easy in and out with toddlers, fast and friendly service, great stop!Kid-friendliness: Fun for kids!”
“We enjoyed a tasting and great conversation with our server, who spoke intelligently about their wines and the region. Then we went back the next day for Brunch and more wine. I would recommend this place over and over again. The wine was incredible, the food was inventive and delicious, and the space is beautiful!”
“This little bakery is amazing. They have the best donuts we’ve ever had. The muffins and scones are amazing too. They’re always fresh and staff are cheerful and helpful. Prices are great for the quality.”
“What a treat. Great service, great sandwiches with great flavor and stacked high with meat, slaw and kraut. As soon as the sandwich came to the table, I knew this could be the best value(quantity, quality, flavor and price) I have received at a restaurant in a very long time. I was right. Perfect combination, awesome value.My only suggestion would be for signage. We started out heading north past this location, and my brain said "wow, a small market out here away from it all". I did not recognize that it was a restaurant, until later in the day when were were checking google for a place to eat. A sign at the road (or as near as they allow) might help draw more "passer by's" into the location.”
“The best winery in northern Michigan. Small, cozy, best wines and even better service and friendly atmosphere. Hard pressed to find a better view as well. Happy to see its back up in running and the new owner is fantastic. Thanks”
“This place is awesome!! The service was so great! Paul was attentive and personable. The pizza was amazing, so flavorful and authentic Italian!! Love this chef. Don’t miss it!!”
“We happened upon the newly opened space, as it was one of few places open in the off season…we’re so glad we did! The entire menu was refreshing - so many fresh and unique options. We got strawberry and root beer milkshakes, broccoli wings, quinoa Phoenix burger, and the Mr. Darcy salad.We waited about 30 min from the time we ordered to eating, which was perfect as we got to walk around town, and then enjoy our milkshakes (AMAZING) while playing games set out on each table (so thoughtful and a preferable atmosphere to patrons with their head in the phones). Every other itemwe ordered was FANTASTIC with huge portions (I didn’t even get to touch the salad, but am excited to eat it tomorrow!) Broccoli wings are a must-try and the quinoa burger is the best veggie patty (housemade, too!) that my husband has ever tasted.If you’re in the area, go support this business!”
“I can’t visit the TC/Sutton’s Bay area without a stop at Hoplot. The beer is tasty, the atmosphere is relaxing and inviting and the staff is friendly and helpful.Definitely a place you can bring kids too also or just enjoy some time with your significant other or friends.”
“Amazing. Absolutely amazing. The bartender is the owner and is on point about flavors and recommendations! Love the atmosphere, bathrooms, wine, cider, and snacks!”
“My girlfriend and I recently had the pleasure of dining at New Bohemian Cafe, and we can't stop raving about our experience! The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the Greek sandwiches on gluten-free buns with added roast beef. They were nothing short of culinary masterpieces - a harmonious blend of flavors that left our taste buds dancing with joy.The gluten-free bun was soft and perfectly complemented the savory roast beef, while the Greek elements added a delightful twist that took this sandwich to a whole new level. We have tried many sandwiches in our time, but these undoubtedly take the crown as the best we have ever had. Kudos to the chef for creating such delectable masterpieces!Apart from the gastronomic delight, the ambiance of the cafe added an extra layer of charm to our dining experience. The cozy and cute atmosphere made us feel right at home. The attention to detail in the decor, coupled with the warm and friendly staff, created a special and inviting environment.Whether you're a food enthusiast or just looking for a delightful place to enjoy a meal, New Bohemian Cafe is a must-visit. We can't wait to return and explore more of their menu. Thank you for an unforgettable dining experience! ???️”
“The sesame crust was fabulous! Overall the pizza was great but the sesame crust took the cake! We just had a 12” cheese, mushroom and onion for the two of us. Perfect size. Next time I will order double mushrooms and onion. There just wasn’t enough toppings.”
“A leelanau county gem of an OG tavern. I’ve been eating here since before I can remember, I loved this place as a kid and now my kids love it also, pretty cool! It’s out in the sticks a bit but the drive there and back is beautiful!”
“Stopped on before a movie and sat at the bar with Forest. He was wonderful and suggested the white chicken chili. He was not wrong. Yummy!! Then we had the rib-eye. Cooked to perfection. Will definitely return.”
“Beautiful location. They have indoor and outdoor seating. For outdoor seating they have an open patio as seen in my photo, and then two sizable tents with cute lights and heaters. Their cherry pie dessert wine is amazing. Staff is super friendly / knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!”
“My wife and I ate here on 04/18/24 and we had a fantastic experience. The food was amazing and the waitress “Sue” was truly a delight, making our dinner date memorable. As an added bonus, the chef made a point to come to our table to personally great us and ask us how our meal was. After a brief conversation, he provided a complimentary tasting on a new bourbon offered on the menu. This restaurant is highly recommended, and we will make a point to return here in the future.”
“such good coffee, stopped in here before heading into town for some shopping. truly the best coffee of the whole weekend trip up north :) would highly recommend.”
“We spent our amazing "mini-moon" at the Inn at Black Star Farms. This was the first time we stayed at the Inn and we do plan to be back. The staff was friendly, David greeted us at check-in and check-out, great service all around from the front desk to the tasting room on property. Although we did not take advantage of all the wonderful amenities since our stay was short, we are looking forward to being back soon. I loved being able to see the horses from our room. We received a complimentary bottle of wine in our room but of course had to purchase a bottle of our favorite Late Harvest Riesling to share on our 1 year anniversary.”
“This place is awesome. The selection of food is great and it tasted great too. I loved the decor and they even have some paintings available for purchase on the wall.”
