I have never been to a bar where your cocktail you ordered was delivered and you have to assemble yourself the rest of the way. I ordered a white Russian and was brought coffee creamer in little cups to open and pour in. Definitely not the service and atmosphere of the previous owner. Sad. Will never be back.

Great location, food is always ok. It’s the servers that really bring this place down. I won’t bore anyone with our bad experience, just a reminder to skip this place and try another restaurant.

My husband and I stopped in here for drinks and had a great time. Service was outstanding! Stacy, Jess and Riley were awesome bartenders! We would definitely stop in again if ever in the area! Thanks ladies for such a fun Saturday night in downtown Manistee!

I have no idea of the parking situation, we parked down the street and walked around before we ate. The food was good, service was OK. We sat inside, but went out on the deck after we ate and i wish we would have sat out there.

I was excited when I heard this place had new owners and hoped it'd be cleaned up inside as well as having the drugs and creeps out of there. Well, it has a new floor but that's about it. I should give some credit to one bartender who was friendly and the nice deck overlooking the river. For having lobster on the menu, this place is a dump. Service was slow and the first bartender rolled her eyes when people ordered anything other than a bottle. The creepiest part was the two cooks who literally sat at bar tables then behind the cook window staring and what looked like recording a bachelorette party for more than TWO HOURS It was so bad, customers took a few turns standing in front of them to block it. Incredibly unprofessional and uncomfortable, let alone wondering why these guys were being paid to basically drool at their customers while the bar was behind? Get rid of these creeps.

Service was not good and the fish was terrible and fries needed to cook longer!

A day of shopping led to lunch in downtown Manistee at this delightful bar/restaurant on the river. We were seated immediately on their back deck overlooking the Manistee River on a sunny day. Our server was so attentive and friendly; a group of 20 came in after us and their server (Jennifer Hudson’s lookalike) was also just as attentive. The chicken sandwich (shown) and fries were cooked to a golden perfection; beers served cold. #foodie #glasscitydotfoodie

If I could give them zero stars, I would. We each ordered a water. I also ordered a margarita and my dinner partner ordered a coke. The Coke and waters came quickly, but the margarita never arrived. The server took our food orders and after waiting 40 minutes, with no further acknowledgment and without ever receiving my margarita, we left. We were sitting any both directly across from the bar and clear view of the servers, and it was not busy. Three servers were there, yet they seem surprised when we said we hadn't received our food. One then asked us if she could put our order in for us and it would be at no charge. We had ordered more than 40 minutes previous! Why was our order not put in? Needless to say, we left and went down the street where we received wonderful service.

This place does not reserve the bad reviews. The staff was very overworked, and as it got later we’re very polite, talked to us. The food was absolutely delicious and crispy along with the sides. Great waterfront view. Btw put the lime on your coleslaw, it’s life changing.

We did catch and cook and it was great! We asked for plenty of tartar and we got it. Ilisa was our wait person and she was sweet. We will be back to do catch and cook soon. Captain Mike

Long wait for soggy cold food. My kids got burgers and the buns we're soaking wet. I got loaded fries and they were still frozen and the bacon was raw. Waste of time and money. It was definitely not busy and they seemed to have plenty staff.
