The sign by the road touts "Sandwiches and Spirits." Exactly what I was looking for (that and a place that wouldn't mind my arriving in slightly soiled hunting clothes), so I pulled in. Very clean inside with friendly service and a tap beer selection that's basic but probably has something to suit most folks. I went for the Stone IPA. I ordered a turkey reuben. The sandwich was a little light on meat and a little heavy on some too--creamy coleslaw. The bread stayed crisp at least, and wasn't overly greasy. Good enough for a pit stop, and a nice laid back alternative to Birch Run's chain restaurant offerings over toward the outlet mall. read more

Unfortunately, this wasn't great. I always want to see small local joints do well ( I am a huge fan of local hangouts) but in this case there just wasn't a whole lot that stood out. The positive was the staff the Bartender/Waiter was very sweet and nice tried to make everything just right. The restaurant itself is very clean and I bet the outside is amazing during warmer months. This was Veterans Day weekend and they did get quite busy so the time it took to get our food was very long but I had good company so it was fine. However the food was just lacking it looked quite appetizing but just lacked any flavor. The olive burger was very bland and my burger was dry and charred, my sister had a Reuben and although I do consider her a Reuben snob, she is picky, but I agreed with her the meat was very dry. My husband had the Rodeo burger which he enjoyed but said it wasn't worth the price. We visit this area all the time since I have family there, but I'm not sure I would give this place another shot if given the chance. read more

We were staying close by and thought we would try them out. Not impressed. Service was mediocre, messed up our burger order. Had to send back, even though I knew I shouldn't, had Mayo on it and I cannot do mayo. Next burger was not done! Cheese sticks were good though. read more

Good food and great prices. The staff is nice and attentive to the customers. I am a local, but I've noticed alot of out of towners and they get the same great service. Family friendly with entertainment several nights a week. read more

Loud, they don't care too much about customers, drunks,obnoxious people, the bartenders was ok, kinda bummed hot burger cold bun, food was ok, they allowed staggering people to drive , I have ptsd and people screaming over music and asked hey ya a lil loud, you are standing 10in behind me can ya move and yell elsewhere, wasn't happy bartenders not attentive/waiter, took long time to get order in, catered to local yokels, won't be back, priced a bit high for the portions read more

Based on very good Yelp reviews, we stopped here on the way from Petoskey back to Ohio. Yelp reviews were spot on - plain exterior, super clean "sports bar" interior, very friendly and prompt staff, and great food! I had the "What's for dinner" sandwich and coleslaw -yummy and huge (took half home). My husband's sandwich and chips were equally appreciated. I'll post pictures! read more

I am wavering between 3 and 4 stars. I am going to round up because the atmosphere was clean and fun, the people were nice and there was choice in the menu. We brought our kids. Not sure if that is recommended? But they seemed okay with it. I had a decent meal, my kids liked theirs, and my husband was on the fence (hence the thought of 3 stars). Also, it appeared as though some of the regulars had been there all day. I don't judge, but just think about it before bringing a 4 year old in... Overall, it was good, and I would return. read more

Very disappointing experience! Met a friend for lunch, food and beverages were great but the rest of the experience was atrocious. The waitress was quite congenial but never had her face covered and we were verbally harassed multiple times by what appeared to be resident drunks. This was early afternoon! Seriously doubt I will be returning. read more

We were in the Frankenmuth area and wanted to eat lunch, but weren't up for all the fuss, expense and shenanigans of downtown. We noticed a Boar's Head sign in a small restaurant on Gera road, so decided to try it. Boar's Head is a healthy choice for meat (non-chemical,hormones, etc.). We learned that there is a bar and a slight sports bar feel, but also very family friendly atmosphere as well. The food is Delicious and home made - the owner's wife makes much of the food and her cole slaw is wonderful (and I don't even LIKE cole slaw as a rule). It is a very friendly, comfy place with excellent food. Love it! They haven't been open very long (10/2013) and have plans for an out-door eating area. They listen to their customers and try to incorporate things they ask for. Love it! read more

Beamer's is a deli that turns into a bar after 8 p.m. The menu is primarily sandwiches, with a couple of appetizers and salads as well. They have 2 homemade soups each day. They use Boar's Head products, which is what made me want to give the place a try. The hubby and & I split the pastrami sandwich & the red pepper hummus appetizer. The sandwich was tasty and quite large, half was definitely enough for me. You can choose bbq or salt & pepper kettle chips with the sandwich. The red pepper hummus appetizer was really large, but that was okay since it tasted great. Service was friendly. There were 4 large screen tv's there for sports fans. They have a full bar and keep Michigan craft beers on tap, but we stuck with the Coke products today. read more

Beamers Bar And Grill - 1/2 pastrami sandwich - Sports Bars Near Me - Birch Run, Michigan

I have been to Beamers quite a few times now and have not been disappointed. I love their nachos and how they pile them high. Ingredients are always fresh. They stock Boars Heads meat and fancy cheeses so the sandwiches are top notch. During the week they always have dinner specials, drink specials and even events like trivia night and karaoke. My favorite is when they offer the brushetta appetizer, which is like a little pizza. It is not a menu item, only a special they offer once in a while. My husband loves it when they do all you can eat pasta because then we can just drive down the road instead of heading into Saginaw to Olive Garden. You should really stop in here if you are in town. If you need a drink, they stock a full bar - many of which are Michigan craft beers. If you ask nicely, they'll even let you have a sample taste if you are unsure of which one you'd like to try. read more

Cleanliness...5 Food...4 Service...4 Price...5 Atmosphere...5 We went there on a Sunday...We were the only ones in the place...Food was great and fresh...MI craft beer menu was a 10...We will definitely go back. read more

You probably drove by this place without noticing. Don't let the look on the outside fool you as it is a great family run pub. They have a variety of beer on tap and you must order the wings! They are the best charcoal grilled wings anywhere! Their sandwiches are amazing too. Give this place a try and I guarantee you won't be disappointed! Try your luck at Keno and maybe you'd leave with some money too! read more

A perfect strikeout. The food is great bar food. The bucket of beer is wonderful. Cheryl, our waitress, worked very hard and even bought our birthday boy a shot... but in the end the "one electric skillet" "grill" couldn't hit home runs. We had 11 people (obviously a strain on most kitchens), but our first plates arrived and it took another hour (I'm being kind) before our final plate arrived (a sandwich, not made on the grill). At no point did our waitress have less than 20 people she was serving (on a Friday night). One more person on staff would have made this visit acceptable... two more would have made it exceptional. Seems like a problem with management. A great place for a lot of enjoyable foul balls, before your ultimate strikeout. read more

We had a great experience at Beamers. We were in on a Sunday, and the place was pretty quiet. I noticed some large speakers and a piano, so I'm not sure if they have live entertainment sometimes? The seating is all tables-no booths, which is not unusual around Frankenmuth. They don't have a website, so to give you an idea of what they have, I'll tell you first that my significant other gave a "Thumbs Up" to their Michigan craft beer selection, which they apparently rotate often. They have a full bar as well. I ordered a spinach salad, and it was nice. My partner and 8-year-old Step-Son ordered a sandwich, and hot dog respectively and they both had empty plates in no time. The dog was on a pretzel bun...yum! The sandwich was panini-style and piled high. Service was excellent. One thing they don't have is a grill or fryers, so no burgers and fries...but you won't miss them. If you're looking for a good soup/salad/sandwich, you'll get it. Also, the owners were in when we were there, and they told us they often do burgers or ribs and chicken on the grill outside, and an all-you-can-eat salad & breadsticks or spaghetti...not sure if that's a regular thing. They also said they will have a patio open in the summertime, which is nice. Overall, a fine place to grab a beer after work, have a simple lunch with the family, or grab some take-out on your way home. read more

On a recent trip to Frankenmuth our group was looking for lunch outside of Frankenmuth. Based on Yelp reviews we decided to give Beamers a try. The sandwiches were all very good, in both size and taste. Low key atmosphere with good service. Stop by and give them a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

This is a place you could easily drive by and not even notice. Or, if you did notice it you might still drive by because the exterior is not very appealing. However, you should stop if you are looking for a great sandwich or soup. I ordered the 1/2 sandwich and soup combo. I wasn't sold on the ham and cheese sandwich, but I really liked the bean and ham soup. My wife really liked the turkey ruben. Rubens can sometimes be greasy, but this one was perfect. We really felt like we came out eating pretty healthy. Plenty of food for $20. We contemplated going to Subway, but I'm glad one of the staff at Bronners directed us here. So much better. The staff was really friendly at both places. read more

Fresh sandwiches and cold beer...highly recommend. Stopped in on a Monday mid afternoon for a lunch. We were the only two in the place. Bartender/waitress very friendly and attentive as you would expect. Place is deceiving from the outside but trust the reviews. Definitely a bit of a hidden gem. read more

Beamers Bar And Grill - The bar - Sports Bars Near Me - Birch Run, Michigan

This place is easily accessible, but just off the beaten path where you are not fighting with outlet mall traffic or Frkmth visitors. This place is inexpensive, but the food was not great. It was good enough. Definitely a place for locals, 1/2 dozen loud and drunk locals that swore a lot were outside where we sat. Not a problem for us, but I can imagine some parents having an issue with it. I don't think I would visit again, but I'm not mad at the $24 bucks we paid. read more

What a great little local restaurant and bar. The food was great especially the peanut butter bacon burger Yum. Would come back here on my next trip up north read more

Great service! 1 waitress on Saturday afternoon running and taking care of the place--super nice. 4 stars for food that's good. Asian chicken salad really good. Coney dogs not so good. Grilled cheese good. Always look for good places that aren't chains. This is one of them!! read more

We used to go there regularly as the sandwiches were very good. Last time we went the menu had a piece of paper stapled to it stating that they no longer serve Boar's Head meats and cheeses. I decided to try a turkey sandwich anyway and it was definitely sub-par. I'm sure they are saving money by purchasing poor quality meats and cheeses but they will most likely also lose customers. I know I won't be back. read more

EXTREME awesomeness in a small package...challenge Gordon to make you something outrageously good. Nice pool table and games.

Sought out based on Yelp reviews. Glad I did! Great sandwiches. Fresh salad. Delicious beer. Don't want to judge a book by its cover - especially this one. Glad we stopped in instead of eating around the outlets at lame chains or going into the touristy Frankenmuth downtown. Easy on, easy off of the highway. read more

Absolutely HORRIBLE Place! Will Never go back, The waitstaff provides the worst service I have ever encountered and the management is in LaLa Land oblivious to everything. I ordered a chicken salad my chicken came out raw, it came out of the kitchen a second time and taste disgusting. My beer was not cold. Management was rude and defensive. I recommend to everyone, DO NOT GO HERE. read more

Nice place. Very clean. Very friendly staff and owner. Surprisingly expansive menu. Stop and enjoy. Beamer burger on ciabatta bun outstanding. Wife had soup and half of turkey sandwich which she enjoyed. read more

I'm always leary about eating out when traveling and rural areas don't always have great food choices. Thank you to fellow yelpers for pointing me to this gem. We ordered the half soup and half sandwich and my 5 year old son got the pizza. My husband and I each took a bite. It was delicious and homemade just like everything else we tried. My husband ordered the Avenger with chicken tortilla soup. I got the big mama and chili. Both were very good and a decent sized portions. I could tell the owners really take pride in their business. And the owners...maybe it's the small town feel that I'm not used to but they were so friendly and warm. I also really liked the vintage Mrs. Pacman game and the old A&W speaker box. I'm very glad I checked yelp first and avoided sub par, unnecessary portioned lunch. Next time we visit the area we will definitely be stopping in at Beamers! read more

Don't judge this book by the cover! It doesn't look like much from the outside. The inside has been redone to a more contemporary look. The food was great, service was slower than I would have preferred but there was one waitress/bartender taking care of the tables and bar. We had the humus for an appetizer, which was excellent and I had their version of a Reuben sandwich and it was loaded with meat. read more

Beamers Bar And Grill - Sports Bars Near Me - Birch Run, Michigan

The wings are out of this world. They're huge and the flavor of charcoal is very satisfying!!!

Went in the place thinking it is just a neighbor bar. But I was pleasantly surprised. The sandwich I ordered was excellent. Alot of that Boars Head meat coleslaw and swiss cheese made the sandwich 3in thick. We ordered a bowl of chichen noodle soup it came in bowl the size of a hub cap. Would recommend this to everyone. read more

My husband and I LOVE Beamers! We don't live in town any more but when we come back for a visit we for sure try to get there a few times! The service has always been good. The owner has always been kind. The beer choices are great for my husband who likes more "flavor" to his beer. And the food is delicious! And they have my favorite apps instead of deep fried junk, I can choose an app of something like chips and hummus. read more

Great sandwiches Craft beer selection slowly dwindling away Was there today see that Founders in on tap now Good selection Fresh soups daily specials Inside the stainless steel is a bit off putting But the longer this place stays open the more and more its getting better read more

I've avoided this place because it looks like heck from the outside, but someone recommended it today and we thought about giving it a try...good decision. I love Boar's Head products and when I saw the sign in the window, I knew I'd like my lunch. Service was awful but there was only one waitress taking care of everything. We had the turkey special and Reuben sandwiches...very good...chibatta bread....prices are reasonable...music is way too loud...looks like they have fun nights during the week. read more

Horrible service, stood at the bar for almost 5 minutes while the bartender sat on her phone texting. Had no idea what a PBR was and it took her another 5 minutes to find one. Asked what kind of IPAs they had and she didn't know what that was either. ordered a shot chilled and SHE PUT ICE IN MY SHOT GLASS. Terrible service, horrible bartending, was never even asked once if I was good or needed anything. Will never be going there again. If you want good service and bartenders who actually know WTF they're doing try Dead Creek, Bus Stop, or The Black Horse, they don't employ ugly idiots. If there was a way to give them zero stars I would!!! read more

The food is gross. The coneys were the most horrible things ever. The sauce on the coneys was like a sloppy joe mix. The food was cold when it was served. The inside however was nice but that was it. The bottle of beer my husband ordered he said tasted like crap. It was just overall not good. read more

Food was great. Best salad I've ever had at a bar. Soup and sandwich was good too. Decent selection of craft beer on tap as well. We stayed at Pine Ridge RV Park and walked over. I was super impressed with the cleanliness! Service was quick and polite. We'll be back. read more

Yummy sandwiches. They use the great quality boars head cold cuts. Very friendly staff. We took take out as we were passing through but yummy smelling wings were being barbecued outside. Lots of people outside. Looked fun read more
