“Great food awesone service“

“Matt has done a good job at cleaning the place up, especially the restrooms. Open Mic night is a great way to see live performances and many different styles. I also like Friday Karaoke- the bar was 80% full and people were having a great time with their friends. If I was to have any complaint it would be parking, needs better lighting , repaving and expanding if at all possible. If that happened they would have to have add another floor“

“Have a good night of poker while you benefit a local charity. It is a double WIN!“

“We've been coming to Irish Tavern for a little over a year now. Every time we've visited the staff is outstanding and shows professionalism with a light-hearted atmosphere.

Highly recommend a visit if you're new to town looking for a bite or just a drink!“

“Was there with about 10 of my family members for a Buffalo Bills game ..... yes I know a Bills game in Detroit... We ordered darn near all of the appetizers and a chicken pizza during the game and they were great. Drinks were great. David ... who handles it all was awesome. I hope the changes they have made make this places succeed.“

“We had a really good lunch here yesterday, always good to come watch a game and get some good chicken wings and a couple beers! Jessica was our server and she was really good, very professional, polite, and nice!

Kid-friendliness: Yes, games here too!“

“Walking in there was 4 beautiful smiling faces welcoming us and we were sat immediately. We sat outside on the patio and it elevated our experience. Service was excellent, food was delicious and came out in amazing timing. I wish I had the servers and hosts name to shout out. Dinned Tuesday night August 5th around 6pm on the patio.“

“Brooke our server, was the best! She was helpful and knowledgeable and very nice. Will be back“

“If you’re tired of the same ol’ dinner-and-a-movie routine, On The Dunes Sports in Commerce Township is like chucking monotony straight into an axe-throwing lane.

This place? A chaotic bar-meets-sports activities of friendly competition and low-stakes glory. You don’t need to be a pro athlete - heck, you barely need hand-eye coordination. Whether you're crushing on the sand volleyball courts or heroically whiffing at footpool, everyone's in it for the laughs and bragging rights.

Families mix with friend groups, solo warriors team up with weekend warriors, and tourists stumble into a scene that feels more local than a Friday night high school football game. The crowd’s chill, the staff’s laid-back, and the glow of arcade machines sets the mood for connection... or redemption after a particularly tragic bowling attempt (with a football, no less).

Add in some crispy sliders, a few high-fives, and maybe a game of street curling that’ll make you question all your life choices - in the best way - and you’ve got a recipe for an evening that’s equal parts quirky and classic.

Whether you live nearby or just wandered off I-96, On The Dunes gives everyone a shot at being a legend... or at least the MVP of their group chat. 🏆. Come here if you want to serve up the kind of night you’ll want to replay - and maybe brag about later. 🥇🍔💥“

“My family used the Game Room 2/23/25 for a Memorial Gathering for my brother, Andrew Clark. Though the reason for the occasion was a somber one, the Game Room was perfect in atmosphere, size, amenities, and decor! Food was top notch, service superior with our 2 bartenders who kept dishes clear and beverages flowing. Erin, the manager was a jewel to work with! She answered questions and offered suggestions and took every phone call with grace and sincerity. I would highly recommend Buck Shots Bar and Grill for any reason to get together with family and friends! Sheryl Greene, 2/25/25“

“I've lived here for 10 years now, and the Boat Bar has been a great place to feel welcome, let loose with great music and great people. also a great job too. the family here treat you like family as well. even outside the bar. Thank you to the Hagar family and most wonderful staff. my nephew thanks you as well.“

“Awesome food, great atmosphere. Dominic is the best bartender ever, he’s so friendly and seems like an all around great guy.“

“I dined in yesterday afternoon & we had the best waitress! Her name was Savannah & she was great! She made the overall experience way worth coming back & dining again. Our orders were perfect, our drinks stayed full, & she had a very welcoming attitude. Good job Bullfrogs on hiring great staff!“

“Always awesome, staff and managment. First choice restaurant in white lake .“

“What better way to celebrate a hole in one than by treating your fellow golfers to a round of drinks and appetizers at the local bar. I was lucky enough to join in the celebration and excitement at the annual ASBE foundation golf outing when a fellow golfer won the $5,000 prize. Since we were there so late we also decided to order dinner. The chicken parmesan sandwich and club sandwich really hit the spot. We will definitely keep this on our list of places to go when in the area.“

“$5.99 burger & fries, with a whiskey sour 👌😌🥃 I’ll definitely be back, and only wish I had stopped in years sooner!“

“One of the greatest experiences I’ve had ! great atmosphere , friendly staff , tasty food .“

“Best ribs I’ve had in a long time, great food decent service prices are in line with other good pub food places we will be back!“

“We’ve always had good food and service any time we’ve been here. It’s exactly what you’d expect. But today there was a server(not even ours) who went out of her way to make my young sons(2&4) feel special. With a random act of kindness. When I told my son that I didn’t have any cash for the duck claw machine, she overheard and had pulled a pair of singles out of her book for my sons to “win” a duck. I didn’t accept it, because we have too many toys as is, and my wife generally keeps a little cash(which my son begged from her). I didn’t her name, but I hope her manager sees this. She is a lovely young woman 5ft(ish) with medium brown hair in 2 long braids.“

“Had to update my review, it use to be 1000% positive. Audra had to ruin it on 10/20/2025. When I asked her for my bill, she literally throws the receipt and my credit card at my face. Such rude and disgusting behavior. Yesterday was my last day ever coming back. If you dont like my money, I'll go spend it else where.
Lodge Owners, do better with hiring better people, otherwise they will run that place right to the ground. What a nasty experience that I sure hope nobody else gets to experience“
