Came in today for lunch, not only did everything on the menu look super appetizing, but it was also extremely affordable, and my meal was so delicious!
The service was phenomenal, everyone was so welcoming, and the staff just made me feel at home with their positive attitudes and outstanding kindness. This place is nothing like an Applebee’s or any chain restaurant, it’s a small town goldmine.
I was extremely satisfied with my experience and can’t wait to go again. Five stars and two thumbs up for my favorite, family friendly restaurant, Side Door Saloon!

Our waitress was very uninterested in our table right out of the gate 🧐every one can have a bad day, this was not that, totally made our experience unpleasant! barely checked on us 😞did not even engage.six of us ,she could have cared less We use to be regulars ,had very little information when we asked about the different plates . Food was horrible ! Should have just licked pepper off the table , like I said use to go once a week ! Next time we are to spend $300 will cook at home ! Don’t mind paying when it’s good .first really bad experience at this establishment , was so unpleasant , lack of care makes hugh impressions

Love the Side Door. Great place to grab reasonably priced lunch or dinner. Been coming here for years as the atmosphere is decent, you can have a decent conversation with friends without any real loud music in the background. The service is good and consistent and the food and drink come out fast. Love the place and come here often.

We stopped in here on a Saturday evening while we were in town to ski. Our group had burgers, salads and pulled pork sandwiches. We also had an oversized pretzel to start. Service was great and all of the food came out quickly and hot. We loved the option to add dip with our chips! It was fast, filling and delicious. We’ll definitely be back!

A Petoskey gem! Great bar seating along with a fun tavern environment. Menu is more tavern than bar given expansiveness of items. Maybe the best burger is all of Petoskey area, plus solid tavern standbys. One of our favorites for casual fare.

Yum! Fun place with great food and exceptional service. I was back visiting Michigan from AZ and craving an olive burger. The Side Door Saloon was recommended and they didn't disappoint! Wish I had more time, because there were so many more items on their menu I wanted to try.

My husband and I ate at the SideDoor last night. My Whitefish was over cooked and the mashed potatoes looked like they were from an ice cream scoop and totally cold so were my husband’s . I told the waitress the fish was overdone but she could have cared less. Yes, I still left a good tip but spending over a $100 dollars for a mediocre meal is not acceptable. We will not be back which is sad because we have been there many times.
This place feels like Cheers on Saturday night. I love it! The service isn't fantastic, but it's the kind that grows on you and most of us have learned to accept it like grandma's kitchen..ya get it when ya get it. It's part of the charm. The wings are to die for, though, and the trivia is challenging and competitive on Saturday. I will say..they had the best pizza in the North, but they ripped that away from us...please bring it back..please. Anyway..small town feel with awesome food that can't be matched anywhere around. If the bar is closed, we head upstairs to the Blue Pelican that is fantastic, too, but were basement dwellers who love Melissa and the atmosphere.
