12 Best Bars in Marquette

“I already loved the atmosphere and food here, but the new owner has made some amazing upgrades to the menu. Great dinner as usual, and a shout out to the servers because you're always on point. Until next time!“

“Very great for my 21st! A nice ease into the bar scene and great/kind staff. Pool tables, restrooms, and good simple foods to fill up before you get your favorite shots and drinks. Small but good atmosphere. But as always be aware and careful in any place that primarily serves alcohol to many kinds of people.“

“The cheese burgers are the best in town. I have tried 27 other burgers in the UP and this is definitely in the top 3. The fries are good as well. The atmosphere is that of any local neighborhood bar. A must stop for the best burger Marquette has to offer !“

“Fantastic food, drinks and service! Came for my birthday and already made plans to come back to celebrate next year! The Pain Killer and Sweet Chili Shrimp Tacos were to die for! Miranda and Taylor made the past two nights here so much fun!“

“If you’re looking for that quintessential “dive bar” feel, look no further than the Nickel! It’s a bar with all the essentials, and nothing else. It’s rumored to be the oldest continuously operated bar in Marquette, and it shows that through its rustic nature. There are only a few tables, and the majority of the space is for standing room. About 25% of the floor space is reserved for the pool table, and there’s also outdoor seating if you’re lucky enough to visit in the summer. The drinks are cheap and the fun is grand at the Nickel, so stop by for a pint of you’re looking for the Last of the Originals!“

“I've been here multiple times in the past year with my dad and friends, and all of a sudden the bouncer at the door starts thinking my ID is fake and threatened to take away my legal ID, wouldn't let me in and bent my ID in half. What a joke. Hire more competent bouncers.“

“Jess is Fantastic! Great drink options as well.“

“Amazing service, keep it up! The owner will make you want to stay. Between their experience mixing and history embedded in the industry, this is a must stop. Please please please! Pass the experience and service expectation down to your bartenders.“

“Loved my Superior whitefish tacos! The cold corn salad was also yummy. My husband really liked his burger and fries. Great service, too.“

“We drove out of our way to visit this spot at the recommendation of friends. It was worth the extra miles. My “gregarious yet combative” red blend was lovely and the cheese and charcuterie platter was artful and tasty. Enjoyed the vibe and would spend so much time here if I lived in the area.“

“We had the best experience at Bodega yesterday. We stopped for breakfast to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday with mimosa’s. We had Aurora as a waitress and she is amazing! The food was incredible!! I love that they let you know right away that you will be waiting about 45 minutes for your food, because it is fresh. It was with the wait! Try the coffee, it is delicious! Great way to spend our Saturday morning. I highly recommend it!!“
