Restaurants in Suttons Bay

“This place!
1st of all, the drive up to Shady Lanes was a GORGEOUS winter wonderland.
Shady Lanes itself sits in beautiful property. The staff were VERY friendly and helpful!
There’s an outside area for sitting and due to the cold, they had these plastic igloos set up. My partner and I grabbed some mulled wine (of which I cannot stop thinking about) and we sat and snuggled in one of the igloos next to the heater! We had an amazing little intimate experience. It was beyond relaxing and cozy!
We can’t wait to revisit when it’s warmer out!”

“Stopped in on Sunday 3/16. Middle of a snow storm but they were open. Guy was working the bar and was pleasant to talk witymh as I enjoyed a pint. He was informed of the industry and welcoming on a crappy day. I look forward to going again.”

“I had a sandwich at Lylah’s today, amazing quality and could easily had fed two people. The flavor was incredible. I am happy to say this is one of my most favorite restaurants in Leelanau county. Staff were very friendly, pleasant environment and clean. Give it a try, don’t think you will be disappointed. Great place!”

“Great new spot! Liked it so much we ate there twice this week. Good wine, great food and wonderful service. Our new favorite place in Leelanau.”

“The inn is very quiet and offers many facilities. Staff, wines and food first class. We have attended events and did the ultimate package. Everything was above and beyond what was described when booking. Beautiful property a short drive from Sutton’s Bay where several unique shops offer something to do if the weather turns.”

“Amazing service and flavors”

“Igloos are fun! Good beer and food! Tacos are delicious and the white bean chicken chili is excellent - would love the recipe 😋 Our favorite place to enjoy a good time!”

“Truly a special meal. This was BETTER than the photos. Every single thing we ate (baked mozzarella, parfait, salmon Benedict, apple pancake) was so incredibly delicious. Honestly the best meal of the trip. Service was also wonderful. So glad we made the trip out here.”

“We are locals and frequent Hawkin’s Farm Cellars a lot. The service is friendly and the Thai food is exceptional. My husband especially loves the Pad Thai chicken and I am a huge fan of the Green Curry dish. You could literally close your eyes and just point to anything on the menu and never be disappointed!”

“So fresh! This is such a hidden gem, the kung pao was amazing. So many veggies, generous portions and the perfect amount of sauce and spice. The satay was delicious and full of delicious fresh herbs. We'll definitely be coming back!”

“Good, drinks, and service are excellent. Great local addition!”

“Great food at a great location!”

“Most vineyards don’t allow dogs in winter, unless you are ok being outside.
we were so pleased to find that black star has a heated area and allow you to bring your dog. The staff and management went out of their way to make us welcome .”

“Always been my fave since 90’s. Their new deep dish is SO GOOD! Hubz and I really enjoyed it”

“For exceptional sparkling wines in a picturesque setting, look no further than Mawby. They have a truly impressive selection, and all of the wines I sampled (Green, Gold, and Mille 2019) were fantastic. On top of that, the staff are top notch, not just in the service they provide, but also in their knowledge of the many different wines Mawby produces.

And if sparkling wines aren't your jam, their sister winery, Big Little Wines, is on the other side of the building. So if you're in the area, it's definitely worth a stop. You won't regret it.”

“cool environment n awesome lil scavenger hunt icecream hits just right!”

“Love all their goodies and the pizza is to die for. Always make a trip there when we are up in the area on vacation.”

“Our new favorite spot for doughnuts!”

“The food was delicious”

“The rooms are filled with a tv, microwave, toaster, utensils, coffee pot, the beds and pillows were comfy and a great nights rest. The view is a 1000% Awesome. The hospitality and generosity was outstanding. everything was clean and well maintained! Highly recommend this place. If money was no object, I would never leave. I fell in love with this place and I definitely will be back!! they trusted us and we trusted them. it's hard to find genuine people these days and the owners definitely showed us that there are still kind people around!! I'd give this place 1 million stars. I miss it already!!”
