Awesome brisket sandwich, wings, pretzels, and soup. Great food and view of the lake. Id definitely go back.
Out-standingGreat beers, great servers, beer experts,Surprise excellent food. Fun menu.Price performer’
Welcoming & pleasant staff. Beautiful views. Fast service. Alan was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, engaging and was non stop working. Clean throughout including restrooms. Many beer options. Brushetta was delish! We will most definitely return.
Tremendous service, selection of beer, food and view.
Have never been let down when eating there. I do love their Taproom Signature Burger, I add their thick bacon though. Those fresh jalapeños are yummy. Great variety of beer 🍺 and cider and everyone that works there has always been friendly and fun to talk to. Highly recommended!😎
Great beer, excellent food in a very cozy space. Its not just bar food. They actually have a decent selection of sandwiches, burgers and some main courses like ribs and a good selection of appetizers
Sat down at the bar in front of taps. Bartender did everything but look at me and ask what I wanted. Instead, he was BSing with other customers, employees, etc. I finally got his attention and he smugly poured and sat the beer in front of me without saying a word. I observed the servers arguing among themselves without regard to customer seeing or hearing them. Clearly, no one is managing this place. The setting for this place is the best in Charlevoix - I have been here multiple times ( for the view) but it is always the same, poor service. This business does not deserve this location. They would be out of business in a month if it were not for the location.
Food is much better than your typical bar food. Our waitress was extremely nice and attentive. Pork chop with Mac and cheese was so good. And the chocolate cheesecake was delicious. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. Just wish they had more outside seating
Food was excellent and good prices. Andrew was friendly and very helpful. Nice atmosphere with water views.
During our 3-day visit to Charlevoix, this is the only place we visited twice. Their beer selection was too great not to come back! Both times we were there we enjoyed our experience a lot. Their mussels were spectacular with garlic butter seasoning. They have a great view by the window, too. Will definitely come back if were in town again during summer!
A nice atmosphere in a small hidden location. Probably only a dozen tables. The entrance is on the side of the building not on the main street and the sign blends in.Their Menu Does Not match their Online Menu. Grrrrrrr.I ordered their Sweet Chili Wings as an appetizer. They were really really good. I especially like the sauce. It was top notch yummy. I would buy that sauce. I wish I had ordered more than I did. For my main meal I wanted to order Goulash. Apparently theyve changed their menu and couldnt bother to update their website. So they no longer had Goulash. So I went with my second choice Smoked Pork Chops. Here was another change. Online menu had an apple butter on pork chop, new menu has a cherry sauce. Highly disappointing. The pork chop tasted like ham. Yes same animal but not the same thing. If I wanted ham I would order ham. To top it off the cherry sauce was not good. It came with Mac n Cheese that was good, but nothing special.The service was very good, so they get props for that.Overall I can only give 3 stars. Wings are Great, but main meal bad. Hidden location but good service. Plus 1 full point off for failure to keep website current. Would I go back? For wing, yes. For main meal, ehhhh toss up.
Burger was good, open faced turkey sandwich left something to be desired. Gravy was way over-salted, turkey was okay. The potatoes were very good though, made with whole chunks of potato. Decent atmosphere and the music selection was pretty decent.
Amazing place…even in the cold winter months. The service was fun, great beer selection and the recommendations from the staff were delicious. A wonderful local restaurant to support.
Good food, patient staff. Gets busy in the summer and some visitors don’t have patience, so shout out to the staff!
This place is great. The only negative I have is the outdoor seating area doesnt have much shade. Most tables are in the full sun. I got the brisket sandwich with bacon and avacado... It was amazing!
Great place. Views of round lake are great. Fast service. Definitely recommend
Good experience overall. Very small place. They dont have a wait-list which sucks, so when its busy you just have to stand by the door which is really lame.I had the shrimp curry which would have been delicious if it wasnt so spicy. I wish the menu or bartender would have mentioned how spicy it was. We werent able to eat it.The pork chop was yummy and juicy and the Mac and cheese was too!The bartender was friendly and fast given it was Saturday night and very busy.
Good food and beer, but a large pizza was 10 in diameter...
We ate the best mussels in the US. The sauce is awesome. Loved to take a container of it home right away.The waitress was also very good and gave a very good wine recommendation and the wine was very good!Too bad we live a little further away but this restaurant is a must go!!!
This was a nice surprise as it is late in season and many places were closed.This place was great!!!The wine was very reasonable, the salad was fresh and great and the burgers were yummy.We were greeted right away in a very friendly manner and our waitress treated us as if she knew us for years.We would come back in a heartbeat.Thanks !!!!!!!!!
The olive burgers we had were awesome to say the least. There is also a good variety of beers on tap here. Will definitely make it a point to stop in again. The views of the harbor are tough to beat as well. They also have a dog friendly patio area.
It was delicious! I ordered a salad and my family ordered hamburgers. We sampled some of their IPA beers and enjoyed all the different flavors. Great views of the lake and watching boats coming in and going out of the draw bridge. I highly recommend!
Great staff, good selection of beer and wine. Yummy pretzels
Enjoyed the food, menu offered some great choices, one big negative, and this is based on now 2 years in a row (we visit up north every summer from Florida......the service is awful, long long wait for our food BOTH years. Dont understand, wasnt that crowded. Rating would be much higher with better service
We were a party of 10, had a table for 6 & a table for 4 but said they didn’t have anyplace to seat us.
Nice view! Delicious food big meals! Lovely place!
Outstanding food! Went for brunch, lunch and drinks on a college football Saturday. The kitchen was phenomenal, made to order dishes with fresh ingredients, quality preparation and great service. Walking in, you wouldn’t expect this type of experience.
Good selection of beers and knowledgeable staff. Service was good. Menu looked great but I only had the chips and bean/corn salsa which was tasty!
Beautiful view and cold beer great atmosphere they nailed it
Great food and friendly service. They have a large selection of Michigan based draft beers. Some of the clientele are quite chatty - my wife sat at the bar next to an older gentleman who talked her ear off (he was on his 4th beer at 11:30 AM).
A weird visit for sure. Ultimately, it came down to the kitchen. I had, perhaps, the best bacon burger of my life, while my wife suffered a totally over cooked and then blue rare steak, which really hindered our date. Drinks were great with a ton of options. Host and bartender were very friendly and apologetic on the kitchens behalf. We got a discount without having to ask about it, which was very professional. We will be back.
Went here for dinner and sat at the bar. The bar tender was great! We only got food but my husband said “if we were local I could see us eating here regularly”. He said this becuase if the overall atmosphere of the place and the food was amazing!
Great bar with solid food. The body mary was very good. Mussels and ahi tuna were very tasty. The list of Michigan beers was extensive and fun. Servers were very friendly despite how busy the bar was.
Took about an hour to get our food then the nachos were burned quite bad!Not on my list to go back to anytime soon!
Decent amount of taps but a lot were out unfortunately. Also, I think they should have some options from Charlevoix Brewing. The brewery was closed when we came to visit the area and would have loved to have one from them still. Food is great here, although I didnt have anything on this visit. I still highly suggest this spot and appreciate the great service
The staff was friendly and helpful. We had to wait in line for a table. We sat on the patio with our dog and enjoyed a nice view of the lake. I had the Chipotle black bean burger and it was tasty. Our waitress recommended adding some Sriracha aoli and that was an excellent suggestion.
Absolutely amazing. The risotto is heaven. The mac and cheese is also heaven.
The food was fine and beer selection was great. However, after waiting 90 minutes for a “35 minute” wait, while seeing parties go right in after being told we were next in line for about 40 minutes, the food was fine but the service was terrible. Food took over 30 min to come out and we had to wave down a waiter for drink refills and even napkins. Would not recommend coming here unless you really like beer
My entire family came outside with our beers and expressed how disappointed they were in their service. I went in to talk to the manager who was not in. I spoke to one of the female waitresses about the bartender. She was very kind and supportive which I greatly appreciated. Then the male waiter came up wanting to know what was up. He was horrible, sarcastic and laughed my concerns off. Very poor customer service . Will not be returning
Raspberry was amazing. Waitress staff and fellow patrons were amazing!
By far my favorite restaurant in Charlevoix. Great food and drink selection
The beverages were spot on. The food was very satisfying!
I love this taproom. Great selection of beer, super friendly staff, and incredible food. Best pizza ever!
Great summer outdoor place for tourists and everyone, but yet an intimate cozy place for local and local friendly people in the winter!
We loved the tuna sashimi and olive burger. They were a little short staffed but the host/waiter/busboy (all same guy) was hustling and did he did very well handling the entire section on his own. Well definitely be back.
Quick service and decent food.Was in and out in about 30mins from sit-down to paying my bill. Only one person though! Sat on the patio with good view of the water. Will come back as I am a craft beer fan !!
Large selection of craft beers, all on tap. Grab a flight and explore what Michigan has to bring to your glass.Its actually conveniently located downtown Charlevoix with a beautiful view of Lake Charlevoix. Grab that drink, walk down the channel, take them photos, find you some food, grab another drink and enjoy the beautiful town of Charlevoix.Unfortunately they dont have car stickers or vinyl decals, otherwise I would have loved to dec out my Subaru with a sticker or two.
Food was way overpriced and awful. Walleye and Mac & Cheese were bland. Eveything in the seafood pasta had its shell on and was bland. The food tasted like something you would find at a bad chain restaurant. We got our table at 8:19pm and got our food an hour later. Would never recommend this place to anyone.
We were here visiting and thought we would try the pub out! When we showed up we asked the wait for outside and were told it would be about 25-35 minutes. After waiting an hour we then asked again and were told we were next. We were seated after 1 hour and 20 minutes. When the waitress came up she asked how she “could help us” we immediately put our order in because we were starving! It took 45 minutes to get 6 pub pretzels which were good and then a little over an hour to get our food. The waitress never once came over to apologize about the wait or anything. The salmon was literally a small piece of salmon on some rice with a small amount of salsa and weird beans(not mixed vegetables like stated) there was tomatoes in a Cesar salad which was a first for us! I understand being understaffed and busy especially during these times but this is not a place we will return back to!
Were locals so Ive been in tons of times. I was a bit disappointed that i ordered one of my favorites.. (not heart healthy but yummy) a mac and cheese sandwich. Its served with Mikes mustard( another Charlevoix original, which I love!).. This time it didnt have much mustard on it. I asked for a little bit more. The bill came and they charged me $1 for more mustard on my sandwich. Im not going to stop going but I spent $60 for two sandwiches and 2 beers apiece. It kinda bummed me out.. we try to support local businesses.
2 seats on window overlooking harbor.
Cute pub with a nice view of the harbor. We shared a grilled chicken sandwich, which was very tasty. Good selection if beers, and our waitress was very nice and attentive.
We ordered the tuna sushi bowl and tuna appetizer. Tuna was not fresh and has a bad aftertaste. Apparently the fish was previously frozen. Gross. Waiter would not remove from check either meal. Offered a 2.00 discount and said manager was not in. Disappointing experience after a 45 minute wait.
Doug behind the bar makes great cocktails especially his old fashioned with locally distilled whiskey. Always a great selection of Michigan craft draft beers. I may get to everything on the menu someday, so far all are fantastic, as well as their specials.
Great local beer selection and food. Staff is friendly and make great recommendations.
Good beer, good service, and fantastic good with a view. The brisket nachos were great, and the Mac n cheese sandwich and grilled cheese sandwich was worth the trip.
The bartender was really nice and hard working. And the food was delicious (as always)
Went here one night and had a beer and it was great, the patio is nice and the beers are fairly priced. Went there again the next night for dinner and it wasnt so great. I ordered the hummus and veggie wrap. The menu says hummus, seasoned veggies, and mixed greens. Apparently the seasoned veggies is just raw cabbage. Definitely not worth $12 for some cabbage and lettuce in a tortilla. I asked about dairy in certain items and ordered the pretzel appetizer and it came out with butter on it. When I asked about it, the server didnt do anything so I still ended up paying for food that I could not even eat. I understand mistakes happen all the time in restaurants, but they staff didnt try to make it right. Just bad costumer service.
Nice views. Friendly staff. Good beers. Try the flights of 4 beers for $12. The food looked good, but we were only drinking 😉
I had the hot open-faced turkey sandwich and was disappointed.Server was nice
Went there for lunch on a Tuesday, must have been a bad day. There were two sets of people in front of us waiting at the designated area outside for seating. The first couple gave up after 15 min when nobody came out to greet them, the second couple waited another five minuets before leaving and we waited about five minutes more before leaving. There were folks on the outside porch area at tables but we didnt see any waitstaff. It would have been nice if they could have just greeted us and acknowledged we were there. We went down to the Villager Pub where we were greeted, seated and had a nice lunch.
Cozy .small but worth it . great food . Nachos were fabulous ! mimosa super. good selection of 🍺.next to marina with terrific view of the lake.
Happy with the experience. Nice small place to grab a drink and some good food. Great beer list and good menu options. Staff was nice and place was clean. I had the salmon, which was pretty good. My wife had the olive burger, which she said was good.Overall, good experience and we would definitely come again. We wanted somewhere casual to have some dinner and drinks, this place fit the bill.
Comfortable atmosphere and great beer selection. The muscles are fantastic. Great views too!
Good food and a great beer selection
It was a smaller place but the wait was not too long. The view was on the water. The food was really good, the service was great, and my flight of beer was also tasteful. I would recommend this tap room if you are visiting the Charlevoix area.
Very cool little spot!! We were up for the weekend and stopped in a couple times - it was that good. Excellent, well-rounded beer selection!! Very happy with the food. The buffalo wing sauce has a ton of flavors layered throughout, not just cayenne and vinegar. House-made Bleu cheese...out of this world! Laid back atmosphere. Highly recommend this place. Take a drive and check it out.
Nachos and beer are very good! Wings not worth it. Looks like they are understaffed as of now and we waited 30’m after seated for nachos and beer no joke. If service improves its a nice spot in front of the park to enjoy
Very disappointed with the service here. The beer guy had no interest in helping us. We came in as a group of 4, and he forced us to pay on one tab because he didnt want to deal with splitting them up, even though there was no one else at the bar. He didnt know their menu and refused to give recommendation. Appalled by the attitude he had towards the customers coming in.
This place has great beers on tap. The burgers were great. The rest of the food was also good, but the soft pretzel was kind of hard... However, if you dip it in the cheddar ale soup it is great!
Everything we ordered was great. The view of the lake was great. They are known for having alot of different types of beer which they did and it was good but, the reason I give them a 4 is because they were out of the beer we wanted. If youre known for your beer you shouldnt be running out of your most popular beer.
Nice place for some yummy food and good beer. Its right on the water, so getting a spot by the window is ideal.
Great food and service! The view while dining is of Round Lake and the Charlevoix drawbridge. The beer and wine offerings are stellar.
GET THE CHEESE BREAD! The service, setting, and drinks were all really good! But the cheese bread is AMAZING!
AMAZING. I cannot express how good the muscle appetizer is and how good the tuna bowls are! The Michigan Blonde Bear is also fantastic. I highly recommend this place!
Service was excellent and really what made our visit (Alex was our server). Beer selection is solid and sure to please any beer lover. Food is good but Id like to see it improve for the price. We ordered the walleye, which was good but not great--$18 meal at best--not $24, the pork chop, which was very good and the grilled mac and cheese, which was just ok. Well definitely come back and Im hopeful that the food price comes down a bit or the flavor improves. Theyre really close to a 5 star review and improving their food game would make that possible.
We really enjoy the food and the staff. We hang here several times a year, usually on Wednesday afternoons. The food is unique and tasty. The staff friendly and talkative. We have had the brisket nachos, brisket sandwich, grilled chicken sandwich, Carolina chicken sandwich, chicken salad wrap, pizzas, and breaded beef cutlet over pasta, on Italian night. All of these were good, but the brisket dishes are excellent. They do have a limited selection of spirits and ciders, with a large selection of wine and beers on tap. Of all our visits we have only one mediocre experience. We think our server was just having a bad night, as on more recent visits their service was much better. We usually go in the afternoon, when it is slower. On the weekends it is much busier and sometimes has entertainment. Check it out, we think you will enjoy yourselves.
Awesome service, excellent food! Great first time experience. Our waitress made suggestions which we took and we were absolutely delighted with our food. I highly recommend the mussels. Delicious! Prices are very reasonable too! Definitely coming back!
We had a great waiter. Despite walking up at dinner time in the middle of the Venetian festival, they found us a table right away. They accommodated our little one well, despite it being a tap room without a kids menu.The food was great. The view of the harbor was a nice perk.The only down side was it was quite noisy.
The Sekushi Tuna is a great alternative if you would like something different than burgers or sandwiches.Also, the Nitro OCP is a must!
Beautiful view. Wait time for food is long, brisket sandwich meat portion minimal and waitstaff discussions of poor tips loud enough for patrons to hear.
Decent tap selection. Good view of lake. Tight space. Be patient. Worth a visit. Mussels on menu. Plus for me.
I have a huge crush on the staff here. Such fun, mellow, friendly, completely human humans.The beer menu is extensive, theres definitely something for everyone here. Lots of options! They also have a great food menu, lots of high quality deliciousness to choose from. Its a treat to take pause here in the afternoon.Great location, too. Down near the bridge, with outdoor seating available and also an interior thats rich with windows and natural light.Love this place and the humans behind it.
Absolutely Amazing place to stop in and try a new Beer you have never had. Or just a beer and a simple burger passing through town this is the place to see. Maybe buy some apparel to wear on your way out. Super Friendly environment.
Great views of the harbor. Food was surprisingly good for a tap house! Burger, brisket sandwich and chicken sandwich were excellent. Good selection of beers. Great prices.
Good food, pretty view. We had just OK service. But would recommend the Grilled Cheese!
It was decent. The views were great. The cider was good. They have gluten free options. Note that after 9pm they only offer a limited menu
Always outstanding food and service. I come through town for work on occasion and this is a place I HAVE to stop at every time. The ahi tuna bowl is out of this world. I have yet to order anything that dose not taste great. And the service is always on point and very polite
Friendly service and a lovely view! Great spot!
Been here a couple times and each time is better than the last. Has amazing food and decent servers. Has really good views of the bay. Definitely a place to visit for a quick bite to eat and drink
Good food. Great beer selection. Excellent service. What more can you ask for?
They have a great selection of beer for all taste buds. There were 4 in our group and we each ordered a flight, so that we could sample all of the beer. We ordered the nan pizza which was a perfect sized appetizer for the group and it was very tasty.
Great service, food & beer!
Cool place tucked in with great views and tons of craft beer choices. The menu is very gourmet and well thought out. I had the brisket nachos and they were ahhhmazing! Also tried the housemade twisted pretzels with jalapeno beer cheese. Scrumptious!! Highly recommend
Our server was really nice but our nachos came out completely burned the first time. We waited for them to come out the second time they came out undercooked with barely any brisket on it either. The server gave us half off prices but it was very disappointing.
Food was good but pricy to be expected from tap bar. Hard to say if selection was good being that half were out!! Waitress was nice fun and accommodating, bartender not so much, condescending maybe due to embarrassment about selection or my desire for less complex beer.
Kitchen was behind, not taking orders for ten minutes to let them catch up. Pizza on naan bread charred with lots of flavor. Beer cheese soup was excellent. Sbc chicken was very rich and maybe a little to salty but good. Cold beer , great waitress!
Food was phenomenal!Lack of service made our experienceUnpleasant!Cant understand why no one wants toWork!!!Not the establishments fault!!!
Holy macaroni! The food here is excellent. The mac & cheese was to die for & its got a beautiful view if you choose to eat outside. My & my aunt both had excellent sandwitchws. Great friendly service & great ambiance!
Great atmosphere and wonderful food!
Good place for a small bite with an excellent beer selection. Very knowledgeable staff with lots of input about any beverage you can imagine. With beautiful outdoor seating on Round Lake highly recommended for a nice summer day or indoors at night.
After reading the reviews, I am disappointed with our experience. Before I start though, I do have to point out our server was the best part of our experience- he was the only one working the patio and took care of every table well.Our wait was long, but that was to be expected because they were busy. When we did finally receive our food, the brisket nachos (both orders) where burnt on top and the cheese was rubbery from the burn. After we were told multiple times to try the brisket, we were really disappointed to find that there wasn’t a lot of brisket and most of it was burned into the cheese. The kitchen forgot a dish as well- insert our server though- he took care of it as soon as he could, but it came out wrong.I would give them a second chance for the sole reason of the level of service we received from our waiter.
Fantastic food, but not good service. The server checked on our table one time, immediately after our food was brought, and that was it.
Best food and beer selection in town
This place does great food for takeout or dine in. The staff if friendly and helpful for being understaffed. The beer selection is diverse and beyond the popular IPAs.
Been here several times. Food is great. Prices are fair. Selection of beer is good for a beer drinker. Staff has always been awesome. Small place so usually a wait.
Excellent! We had our pup with us and the person waiting on us was wonderful. He seated us on the patio and we had a wonderful experience. Truly dog-friendly, great menu, and excellent beer!
Big selection of taps for a small town. I had the breakfast burrito off the brunch menu. It was really good. The staff was friendly and happy to answer questions about the beer or the menu. Great place to eat while waiting for the ferry as well.
The food was excellent, I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed. Im not a big beer person, but they had enough creative variety that I got a flight. Great waitress, perfectly attentive but not overbearing. A great experience.
Good first impression. Seated quickly. Food came out timely and was good.....but never saw the waiter again. Drinks empty...waited for check..nope....wife went outside....saw waiter trying to seat others...but he couldnt cause we were still waiting for our check. Asked for check...nope...went to other table. Observed waiter struggling with computer...one other waiter and one bartender. Waitstaff seemed frazzled.
Excellent meal every visit, with solid options from starters (try the cheesy bread) to entrees (stuffed portobellos top my list) and even desserts (chocolate stout cheesecake!). Plus, a lovely selection of rotating craft beers. Its a little tight inside, but worth the wait if needed.
Service was awesome. You could tell they were understaffed, but the servers were awesome. Great attitudes and great food.
Amazing food and atmosphere, some patrons were cranky because a server forgot to seat them when a seat was available, but the staff was amazing dealing with them. It was BUSY. Food was excellent and we will definitely be back when in the area..
Great food and service! Fantastic IPA, Brisket Nachos and Salad. GET ThE SOUP OFF THE MENU!
Great food and craft beer assortment. A little difficult figuring out where and how to park, obviously not the bars fault.
Decent selection of beer, food was good (pan seared scallops in curry sauce) curry was way too spicy for scallops and the rice. Kinda destroyed the flavor of the scallops all together. Music was horrendous (they had some techno stuff going on which simply doesnt for the atmosphere) Beer is priced good, a lot of dark beers (brown ales, porters, stouts) very minimum light bodied beers. All in all its a great place. Visiting during the fall so I bet this place is packed during the summer.
Fantastic food and a massive assortment of local Michigan beer with helpful staff to help you decide. Only issue is its very small and difficult to actually get a table. The bar is usually available. They play live music sometimes too.
Delicious food, delicious beer. Many styles on tap. Bartender was friendly and helpful in selecting from the tap menu. Atmosphere was great that includes a picture window overlooking Round Lake. If you enjoy trying a wide selection of brews alongside tasty food, make this one of your stops.
Great staff. Really good chicken sandwiches, burgers and beef brisket. Tons of locals beers. I could stop here daily.
Nice little spot to grab lunch or dinner and some good Michigan beers. Theres seating outside for those nice Michigan summer days and inside, the service is good, and the food is well prepared. Definitely give place a try if youre in Charlevoix.
Visited Charlevoix for the night and stopped at this cute Joint. The Service was incredible. Really nice staff. The bartender Mali was super tentative and friendly, the chefs were hospitable and made AMAZING food(Like to die for), The view was breath taking, and the beer selection included all Michigan Brewed beer(Nom). Also, the music put the cherry on top. 5 stars for sure. check it.
Just had a lovely shrimp curry takeout from the weekend Chinese features! Perfection.... from a self proclaimed curry expert 😉 Giving the pork egg rolls ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ also!
Great view and lots of beer options
Alan was extremely accommodating and offered several tastes of what they had on tap when I couldn’t decide. He did not make it seem like an inconvenience at all. We frequent this place when we are in town for a few times a year and always receive friendly service. I enjoy the cheese bread appetizer and beer typically.One suggestion for future improvement that seems to be a theme in Charlevoix establishments: get a baby changing table in the men’s room. There’s room on the West wall and men change baby diapers too. This isn’t the 1950s anymore... even in Charlevoix. Be the change!
Six of us enjoyed a variety of appetizers and entrees during a visit to Charlevois in June of 2017. We loved the food and tried several of their ciders - yummy! Eclectic atmosphere and attentive waitress made the lunch a success.
Great place to grab a beer and some good food. Love their selection of brews. Order a flight and try five different taps. My favorite thing to do! Love the brisket nachos.
The food was very good as well as the drinks! The waitress we had was awesome! Our group had a great experience tonight. We will definitely come back.
I actually hired a bartender here for my wedding at Castle Farms and she was absolutely wonderful. She laughed and talked and had a great time with my crazy family and it was nice that she joined us in the fun. She was so easy to get along with. And it was so easy to find them and hire them as a vendor. They got back to me right away and were simple to work with. Thanks guys!
We came here two years ago while waiting for the ferry and had a great time, however that was not the case this time. From the beginning the bartender (in a Boston hat) was very rude and uninviting. Then, after we ordered our beers we watched the bartender poured them and sit them on a ledge on the wall behind the bar - only to have them sit there for the longest time before the waitress would finally remember to look for them and bring them to our table. Just watching the staff was frustrating as everything was so disorganized - and it wasnt even that busy. We never felt welcomed there this time, so needless to say we will not be going back there on our next trip to Charlevoix.
Every bit a two star experience. Not sure how they stay open. I would ONLY ever come here again for a quick Bloody Mary because that was delish. The service was a teenager(?) who seemed completely uninterested in our comfort or needs, didnt refill our drinks until we sat empty for a very long while, and was out of touch with the amount of time it was taking for us to get two simple sandwiches to our table. I then had to get up and inquire about my tab at the register. Very poor service and there was an entire hair in my over-mayonaised sandwich.
I didnt actually make it inside but I had a drink out on the patio and it was pretty nice. Our waitress was friendly and checked up on us. Ive heard they have really good food (Im not from the area) so Ill probably be back for a burger.
Great beer selection. Pub steak was done perfectly and there was no hesitation by our server to remake my complicated order when it wasnt quite right at no charge to us. Tarfuno was a bit underwhelming. Good atmosphere and nice view of the harbor.
Really Good Pork Chop. Because of Supply Chain (Covid) they were out of a few items other than that a good place.
Great bar. Great selection. Great bartender. Great view. Ha! Can you tell I enjoyed myself?
The Bridge Street Tap Room in Charlevoix not only has a terrific location, they also have a terrific selection of food and drinks. Tons of micro brews to choose from and a fun atmosphere. Great place for locals and non-locals to meet.
My wife and I took a Christmas ride today and had the luck of finding the Bridge Tap Room open.Met a wonderful young Coast Guardsman at the bar (God bless them all) Great Ale and Cheddar soup and nachos with ultra thin sliced brisket.Trying the winning 2018 chili on the next visit.So friendly, perfect afternoon.Thanks.Brent & Alice Nichols (old troopers)
Used to love the food at the Tap Room. Went today and ordered the Nachos (served luke warm, cheese not melted) and Parmesan Grinder. It was served on sourdough bread, not the Hero role the menu said. Chicken was cold, cheese not melted and barely any sauce. Big disappointment. Really hard to eat bc sourdough bread has holes throughout so the little sauce it did have on it, came through the bread. Really messy to eat. Totally wrong bread substitute. If your going to change a menu item, tell the customer when they order it. Will only go for drinks from now on.
This is our 2nd trip to Charlevoix and our 3rd time at the Bridge Street Tap Room. The food is nicely prepared, with fresh ingredients. The craft beer selection well curated selections from Michigan. The staff are pleasant, but service is chaotic! They are 3 for 3 in turning a half hour wait for a low table (not a high top) into an ordeal. As the hostess remarked to us (after the table wed been waiting for was removed to make room for the evenings entertainment), I guess we dont communicate very well. At least she used correct grammar! Anyway, the view is lovely and we are patient people. If youre not, this might not be the best place for you during evening rush.
Full disclosure...Im not a foodie and am not an adventurous eater. That being said, Richs Ragin Grilled Cheese may have been the best sandwich Ive ever eaten. I dont know when Ill next be that far North again, but Im longing for another...sooo gooood.
The whole family got sick from the food here. Our appetizers took forever to come out and the food wasnt that great. On a positive note, the waiter was very friendly. If you plan to eat here with a group; GOOD LUCK!
A friendly pub with great food
Server was quit bit efficient. ..the owner was counting money, doing his banking at the bar.....1:00pm......30 plus taps....great beer selection. .....great food selection. ....atmosphere. .....PATHETIC. .....NO MUSIC. ...TNT ON TV....YOU CAN HEAR ALL CONVERSATIONS......THE OWNER SHOULD BE FIRED.........I WOULD NEVER GO BACK. ......FOR A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR AREA, HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED. ......YOU SELL ALCOHOL NOT CEMETERY PLOTS
Great marina views, cold beer, lots of local beers on tap and good food. Whats not to love!!
Food was good, nice outdoor patio with a great view.
Decent sandwiches/entrees and a nice draught beer list couple for a nice place on the water.
Amazing beers and delicious food! Located in one of the most beautiful spots in the world. Great pizza, soups and great appetizers to pair with a huge selection of beer on tap.
If you are looking for a solid burger plus a wide selection of beers, this is the place.
Wonderful experience. Food and staff are equally amazing and the location in summer months at sunset is beautiful.
Excellent chicken caesar salad.
Beautiful location. Food was ok. Serve leaves a lot to be desired. With so many options for food, Id rather give my money to kinder people. Our waiter seemed annoyed the entire time.
Short wait time- pleasant service.
One of the only places open that serves food late night. Food wasnt bad but the portion definitely wasnt worth the $10 for the little sandwich I had. Could have spent the same amount at a fast food place and gotten quicker service and more full
Great food. Helpful waitstaff if you are not familiar with the micro brews
Great patio dining Bloody Marys, Brunch, and service.
Theyve got a nice list of featured drafts. Try a few with a flight! Their smoked brisket nachos were delicious!
They were understaffed and food was very mediocre. Now, we didn’t have beer. I’m sure the beer is great if you are into that kind of thing.Edit: I said you didn’t have beer, I meant to say “we didn’t have beer”. My mistake.
Loved this little place, great craft beer choices on tap from different locations throughput Michigan. Had a couple of appetizers. And the bartenders were helpful with things to do in the area.
We will not return to this establishment. From the moment we walked in, we were ignored. No one greeted us or acknowledged that we were there. We sat down at a table and after about ten minutes of no service, I walked up to the bar to order for us. The bartender barely noticed me and I felt like I was asking way too much about the selections! A waitress never did approach our table and my boyfriend, again, had to go to the bar to order.We are from Petoskey and own a business plus I work for a radio station. Word of mouth advertising will not be good from this end. It is not worth the one star I had to give it.
One of our favorite places!! Love all the beer choices, always great service and excellent food!! If you havent tried the baked bruschetta, its one of our favorites, So yummy!! :)
Great atmosphere! Very friendly staff. Their selection is very neat, I like that it is all MI made! Even the music they were playing was just great. Highly recommend.
Decent food, terrible service. Beer glass slid off of broken crooked table spilling on the floor under our seats. Rude staff member gave us some wet rags to ineffectively clean it up ourselves.
Great views and awesome Michigan beer selection.
Great beer and drink selections and Food is tasty as well! A little small on the occupancy side which can make waiting for a table somewhat long. The live music is nice too!
Great food. Tried the Naan pizza and its great. Think of a fluffy, flat bread pizza. Over 30 beers on tap, most (if not all) from Michigan (my favorite from a flight was the Odd side ales bean flicker blonde). Great ambiance, great crowd. Great waitstaff (thanks Matt K!). Great dessert too (custom made - Raspberry Tortufo in a waffle bowl). Thanks! Would come back if back in Charlevoix.
We loved this place! Amazing food especially the ahi tuna and brisket nachos! Also very good beer choice :) we will be back!
Fun selection of local craft beers, nice view of the water, great place to have a couple and just chill.
The Bridge Street Tap Room is the best place to get a beer in Charlevoix. They have 32 taps that rotate delicious craft beer from all over Michigan. You wont find Budweiser or Guinness here. Instead try a beer brewed nearby like Soft Parade by Shorts Brewery in Belaire, MI, or a Final Absolution by Dragonmead Brewery in Warren, MI. The taproom is small enough to give off a warm and friendly vibe and the food is delicious. You can get full-entrees like stuffed chicken, burgers like the black and blue burger, or appetizers like the brisket nachos. They also have live entertainment throughout the summer. The servers and bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable and make you feel at home with pleasant conversation. The small patio is also dog-friendly and there are beautiful views of round lake. I have stopped here several times around 10pm with friends to share a late night pizza and a night-cap. I recommend going during non-peak hours, when there wont be a long wait. If you happen to encounter a long wait, stop downstairs at the sister company Lake Charlevoix Brewing Company, where they have plenty of seating, a beautiful patio, and delicious beer brewed in-house.
Great place to go get a pint. Wide selection of local and regional brews. Food is a step above bar food but prioritize this place for the beer/wine and views of Round Lake first and it wont disappoint.
Omg... this place is awesome! Try the brisket nachos or the chicken salad wrap. Loved it!!!@
This is a family favorite when visiting Charlevoix. Great food, friendly service, and wonderful beers. Highly recommend when looking for a good place to eat while in town.
Very accommodating for a to go order, and the brisket sandwich was unbelievable. Even their to go packaging is recyclable! This is a place I can feel good visiting, and Ill definitely be back.
Consistently fantastic food, service and beer.
Great spot on the park with friendly staff. Good local beer and food menu too.
Very friendly staff! Food was excellent and great beer selection. Next time in town will stop again
All good, ordered 3 naan pizzas to go. In and out, nobody was hurt.
One of the best burgers Ive ever had! Its been 4-5 years since Ive been able to say that.
This place was over priced and slow on food service, I had the walleye dinner and an ala carte dinner salad. They should be embarrassed at what they called a dinner salad, and my walleye was no bigger than a piece of perch. My companion had a steak which was not cooked to order, way over done. Her wine seamed to be short as well. I wont go back, tourist beware!!!!
This place offered a fantastic view of Round Lake while we were eating. The beer I tried on tap was great and the sandwich I had was good too. All around had experience.
Fast, friendly service. Enjoyed the drive is and the view.
Pan Seared Scallops and stuffed chicken with risotto were both delicious with a glass of wine and a beautiful view! The server was friendly and knowledgeable, highly recommend!
Food was great and a nice place to sit out side and watch the boats
Good beer selection, dog-friendly patio, and service are pluses. Small forgettable menu is a minus. Would go there again
The mussels were straight perfection! Large variety of beer. Friendly service! Really enjoyed this spot!
Fast, friendly service and great drink selection.
Good beer selection. Had the seafood boil and it was tasty. Husband had the wings and he loved them
Great selection of local craft beers. The brisket sandwich is the best on the planet! Awesome mac-n-cheese too!!
Excellent food (try the tuna!) And a nice variety of beers and ciders on tap.
Excellent chicken, cherry wrap, veggie nachos, and stout cheese cake! Amazing luncheon on a rainy day! Beer ,dark horse raspberry, and Black Star Farm Riesling wine!
Indoor and outdoor seating with views of the marina. Great service and friendly. The brisket sandwich with bacon and avocado was awesome.

2022-06-10We arrived on a beautiful sunny Thursday around 6pm and chose to sit outside. Abby was our excellent server. We ordered a burger, Richs grilled cheese, and a kids meal grilled cheese. All of the food was great. Cant beat the view of Round Lake, the great service, and great food. Highly recommend!

2021-08-19Overall good foodId say the brisket nachos are the best bang for your buck. Theres alot of food there and tasty too and could be a meal for one personGrilled chicken sandwich was delicious and was decent portionsWas disappointed in the pork chop. It was delicious but portions were measly. For me I wouldnt consider this a full meal. A couple green beans and a couple of noodles is a joke(mac & cheese had no flavor and neither did the green beans) . Not worth $21 in my opinionService was slow but there was a big crowd.

2022-06-24My family and I have been in this area for over 50 years. We frequently go to many retail shops and restaurants to help support this wonderful community!Today we were deeply disappointed with ordering something as simple as a pizza! I called and was abruptly interrupted and told that take out had to be done on line. I understand from an efficiency standpoint why this is done.I ordered a pizza for my mother and I. The pizza was the size of a frisbee for $13. There is a local gas station who’s pizza not only tastes better, but is better value.The pizza had good flavor, but was not worth the cost. I regularly pay $30+ for pizza in Chicago, and am happy to do so, as what you get is worth it!Business has been very challenging the last couple of years given the pandemic environment, and inflation is at an all time high. I understand recouping costs, but I’ve watched many businesses close doors.Value and customer service are the key to success in the environment we find ourselves in.

2022-06-16Wonderful place to eat in Charlevoix. We were in town for two nights and went here for dinner both nights. The curry is delicious. I loved the fish as well. The service was great both nights. They regularly rotate their beers. The selection was very good. Id highly recommend dining here.

2021-07-25Amazing customer service and amazing food! On my first visit, we oddly got the kettle chips instead of tortilla chips with the hummus, and it tasted great enough for me to ask for the same on the second visit! Grilled chicken sandwich, naan pizza with garlic herb oil and cheese, and cherry chicken wrap were also very delicious!! The Cheboygan Blood Orange Honey beer was very good. The second time I went, I was recommend by the bartender to try the Michigan Beach Blonde made in-house, it was very good, I ended up buying a growler to take home and share with friends! Great staff, great views, great food.

2022-06-27This place has terrible food and even worse service. We waited over an hour for our food. Once our food came, two of the items (grilled cheese and salmon) came back burned like they hadn’t cleaned the griddle in two weeks. It took 20 minutes to the get the servers attention because she was so busy. She finally took the food back. She brought the bill will everything fully charged. I told her that we were not going to pay For the burnt food. She said she had to talk to her manager about it. He came out and said that he would “discount” the meal. I told him we wouldn’t pay for it. To which the manager fought me about.First Of all, the food here is terrible. On top of it, the service and demeanor of the staff is atrocious. I would never eat here again and would never recommend it to anyone.Never even an apology from the manager or waitress. Just an expectation that I should’ve eaten or accepted and paid for burnt food that would’ve been subpar even if it wasn’t burnt.
