8 Best American Restaurants near Maple City

“You know how there’s always that one special place from your travels that holds a lasting, fond memory? For our family, it’s the Little Traverse Inn. We stumbled upon it during a trip to Michigan several years ago, and it ended up being such a memorable stop — a wonderful meal, warm atmosphere, and the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at home. Our kids were little then and had the best time climbing the big tree outside and running around the grounds. It’s a memory we all cherish, and we still talk about it whenever friends or family mention heading to that part of Michigan. We’re hoping to make it back again soon — it will always be a favorite.“

“Great experience! The sandwiches were huge, pizza was excellent and the spicy breadsticks were amazing!!! Drinks were fantastic! The staff were excellent and very helpful and friendly! Nice area to sit outside too. Overall a great experience and will definitely be returning!!!“

“We are local and go almost weekly to The Public House. I have severe gluten issues and they are so careful with my food. They have a dedicated frier for their fries and are open with me about what could be cross contaminated. My food is always fresh and well made. The employees are incredibly kind, professional, and efficient. They help make the visit even better. Shout out to Bridget! She’s just the best. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in Glen Arbor.“

“Pleasantly surprised by this restaurant! The food was excellent, portions were large, service was quick and friendly, and the outdoor seating was great! The food isn't "touristy" (meaning it's not low quality like other places in the area). We live about 20 minutes away and wanted a nice place to take my visiting relatives, so we thought we'd give it a try and I'm happy we did! My husband and I will definitely be back.“
