Loved! Was so happy to get seated right away on a Friday nite in August! My friend had the key lime pie martini, which was AMAZING! The breadstick & cracker basket was so retro, but I loved it. The side salad was basic, but hit the spot. The Labelle perch is fantastic! I wouldn't think to put tomatoes & capers with perch, but YUM. The service was good. Loved the live music too. We will be back!!! read more

Crews Inn has been our go to restaurant near our marina since 2010. Once or twice a week. The food is always great, the service is always great and eating on the water is the best. Best soups around. Not a fish eather, but family and friends say the Perch is outstanding. Try the BLT. It is great! Great burger. Love Debbie1 and Debbie2 on staff. We are always welcome. read more

We love Tom! He's so friendly and he makes the Bloody Mary Mix; so good! I had the clam chowder and it was one of the best I've had out this way. read more

What I had: Club Sandwich with Fries and a Bloody Mary. What I thought: My Club Sandwich was just okay. I'm not a fan of turkey roll and this sandwich had a lot of it. Plus, two pieces of Texas white toast didn't do much for me either. Add the orange cheese and I'm questioning what I ordered. The fries were hot and crispy, however. So that was a plus. Lastly, my Bloody Mary was a bit underwhelming. It was tomato juice and alcohol...maybe some heat too. It needed some spices. I actually added salt and pepper to mine from the table. It didn't help it much. The view and outdoor seating was appreciated. read more

Great people watching with good food. Sitting outside is a must. You are able to watch the boats and watch the amazing production that the staff puts on taking care of incoming boats. read more

Great venue -outdoor dining on the water. Food is great. Service real good. Took guests from out of town and they loved it. They didn't rush us out. read more

I'm not sure I can say enough good things to do this place justice. The food was delicious, the waterfront tables can't be beat and the service is WAY better than any other restaurant right now. We will definitely be back! read more

Crews Inn - Burger with fries - Bars Near Me - Harrison Township, Michigan

Crews Inn is a throwback to an earlier time. As Americans, we've become spoiled with our dining: we expect a constant procession of food, from the bread basket to the salad to the main course. So, this place is a bit jarring. The appetizers are not cheap compared to the main courses. There is no side salad option, though you can get a bowl of soup. And, there is a bread basket, but you have to ask for it. But, if the food is as good as it is here, you can certainly get away with being old school. The crabcakes are some of the best I've ever had a restaurant: they contain a lot of crab! Seriously, this is my big gripe about crabcakes anywhere, but that's not the case here. The sauce that comes with them his uninspired, but the crab itself is so good that it doesn't matter. The grilled salmon that I had was superb. Very nice crispy exterior, and a perfectly cooked interior. The buttery broccoli and beans they came with it were a very nice accompaniment. I haven't been here in years, but I see that the things that made them good years ago haven't changed. I can see that my fellow diners look familiar, like I probably saw them years ago at the same place. This is a place that only the locals really know about, and that's a shame. Sometimes, you don't have to be cutting edge to be good. read more

I wanted to like this place. I have been grabbing Groupons to places to try out. I paid like $8 for a $20 in food. We walked in and there was no one up front. Finally we were acknowledged, she told us to come with her.. all the way to the back of the restaurant where the other 2 tables were seated. Lovely. The decor is so old and dated. Ughh.. glad we have the water or lack of to look at. It seemed to be regulars. Plus, it was Valentine's Day... Finally we place a drink order. We got a coke (2.95) and root beer(3.50) I didn't understand the price difference, we kinda laughed. Oh well. When we placed our order I asked if we could get bread or something. I hadn't eaten and I was kinda fading fast. I kid you not, she was like since it's Valentine's Day, I'll Bring you a roll. I kind of laughed and said thanks. What a joke. When she came with a piece of bread and the clam chowder we ordered, almost instantaneous. We never really waited. We shared a cup because the waitress boasted about it being the best in the state. I will say, it was pretty good!! We got the crab cake lunch and lake perch and chips? The waitress again boasted about the crab being real crab and not imitation. Wooo.. The lake perch was "fresh" as in it was dipped and then fried. So the seafood dishes are as fresh as you'd expect at a restaurant on the water. Both the crab and the fish were good. The vegetables on the side also were good. Not the best but good. We both liked the food we ate. The prices though? Wow too much. I didn't even have a drink and we spent $40+. I never say this, ever. I left still kind of hungry. For the amount of food we received to the price we paid, the value was not there. You can tell that from the clientele that this is a corner diner to them. The prices to the amount of food you get is just not there for me. I don't eat a lot, thanks tummy issues.. but this left me hungry. It was good to try, but, anything more than trying it, I'll pass. Maybe over the summer I'll come back, sit on the deck, and try it again.. but not anytime soon. read more

Great menu selections and quality ingredients. Service was fast and very charming. Location is nice especially in the warmer months when you can sit outside and watch the boats go by. I would return!! read more

Crews Inn - Crews Inn Salad - Bars Near Me - Harrison Township, Michigan

Great atmosphere, we sat outside and enjoyed water views, the boats going by and the live music. Had good appetizers and the perch was fab!

Went here a few weeks ago not too long before closing and my experience was simply ok. I got the vibe that the servers were rushing us, and it seemed unprofessional. I understand that they are ready to end their shift, but if the kitchen is still open, it should not be an issue. Additionally, the food was ok. I ordered calamari and when I received it, it was soaked in a pool of butter. It would have been so much better if it was not as greasy, because the the quality itself was not bad, just the way it was prepared. If I were to ever go back, I would ask for low butter. Overall, I would say that for the price, this place is not worth it. read more

This is actually a great waterfront restaurant with available boat docks that you can pull your boat in to stop in for a cold drink. Beach style bar with adequate outdoor seating. And Tom Moons is absolutely the sweetest! And our waiter Matt actually got my order right the first time without even having to write it down!!! The menu is extremely diverse with options for everyone! Also impressive and creative mixed drinks to pick from, that even I tried something other than my usual with a side of olives lol anyway this place is kind of a go to, Especially if you're a boater on air or have your boat docked at a nearby Marina... read more

Atmosphere and service is amazing. Tommy is always so friendly and always remembers my drink of choice. The menu has great variety

Landmark of a place for the boating community! A great place to sit outside or dock your boat and have a cocktail, grab some lunch/dinner. It's your typical old school setup and the food was ok. A little update with the place and food choices would do this place good. Highlights: I had the coconut shrimp. A little over done with the breading. The shrimp were huge and the coconut flavor is not so overwhelming. You get your typical mixed veggies and two redskins on the side. My BF had the Mahi Mahi with pineapple and peppers chopped up on top. The fish was a bit dry/over done. We both had a cocktail and they were great! The service was excellent! The manager came by and asked if everything was ok. You get a bread basket. It's more of a family restaurant type feel. The prices were a bit high I must say. Nonetheless, if you are boating or on a nice summer day, it's worth to go for the experience, hang out outside and listen to the music coming from next door, watch the boats pass by. I would come again. read more

Took my Grandma here for lunch and everything was perfect. White wine spritzers she ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and I ordered the crab cake lunch. Everything was up to par for a small restaurant on the river. Service was immaculate. I wish I remembered our servers name so I could pay her the compliment. Next time I'm back in town I'll definitely be back. Atmosphere is fun and we enjoyed watching the boats pass by. read more

Came here for a boat ride and Christmas Carol sing along event. It was advertised as appetizers at the restaurant, then boat ride with Caroling and DJ. The cost was $30. Upon arrival I told the hostess I was there for the boat event. She directed me to a table and then pointed to where the appetizers where. All 2 of them. There were 2 chafing dishes set upon a single table, one contained some triangular beef pastry thing, the other an eggroll shaped cheesy pastry thing. They might as well have served us hot pockets. Paper plates, no sauces. Are you kidding me!? They were pretty gross and not what I was expecting for our 'appetizers'. Apparently they want you to order food. Drinks were extra. After snacking on our appetizers and 2 drinks - time to head to the boat. It was a cold, snowy night, everyone piled on the boat. There were about 60 people - and the indoor space on the boat was made to accommodate about 15. We were jammed up and jelly tight. People were freaking out. A small CASH only bar was inside, with 1 bartender. Awesome. Chaos ensued. Finally the boat left the dock, about 80% of the people decided to brave the elements and go to the front or back of the boat, but many people staying inside at the bar. The DJ was on the back and was playing Christmas carols about every 3rd song. There was no Sing Along, no one was in charge, you could obviously sing if you wanted to, which many did, but it was just a free for all. After about 1/2 hour he stopped all Christmas Carols and switched to oldies and dance music and a dance party ensued on the slippery cold deck. Many people said that this was not the boat that they had been on before, this was a small boat with a very small inside space and limited space at front and back. I have no idea what its capacity was, but we had to have been at maximum. Hopefully we weren't in danger. The boat was unable to break through the river ice to get us to the lake so instead we went back and forth in front of the houses then backwards to Crews Inn, then up as far as we could go and the backwards again. It was actually amusing. Don't get me wrong - I had fun - but it was in spite of their poor execution. It was only because everyone on the boat was nice, fun and there to have a good time. Dancing, drinking and talking to everyone was really great. Afterwards we went back in to Crews Inn and continued to dance and talk with all the new friends we had made. I would probably do another of their boat rides, but this time I would know what to expect and not think I was getting apps and I would bring plenty of CASH. It was all about the fun people. read more

Wowww I so wanted to be able to give a big 5 star rating! A decent deck overlooking the water - watch the boats go by. Waitress came by - brought water. Saw the people at other table had sangria- copycatted & ordered 2 or the same. They were quite good! Limited menu- ordered a perch sandwich to share with a simple salad - added in 2 Two ? Shrimp @$7.50 - sandwich came with fries- decent! After I ordered- waitress let table next to us know that they had lobster rolls - TOTALLY would have ordered them. I'm torn - just don't think it was a $ 58 lunch - non the less a good day ! read more

Seriously a local crown jewel , my wife and I have been many time and we are always treated with nothing but respect and kindness. I ordered the coconut shrimp , but and just and delicious !!!! My wife this time had a bugger and said it was very good. But the last time we went she had the fish and chips and she said it was ok. If you haven't been , you need to go, you won't be disappointed ! read more

Crews Inn - Coconut Shrimp with a plum dipping sauce, ungodly good !!! - Bars Near Me - Harrison Township, Michigan

I've been here 2 times, first in the summer, and then just last night. The first time i ordered the crews inn tuna nachos to split as an appetizer and they were TO DIE FOR. That day i ordered the fish and chips and it was awesome. Then last night i ordered the nachos as my main dish and it was still good, just something was different. If you order it, get regular sour cream instead of the wasabi sour cream. The clam chowder is super good! A little on the pricy side, but it's good for a nice lunch. read more

Server forgot the plate for one member of our party. They should have brought the plate out right away, but we watched as the kitchen sent out several other plates while we waited for over twenty minutes. Menus look like they were printed on someone's home printer. Stapled together, not even two-sided. Poor quality, under experienced staff, overpriced for the experience. read more

I had a great meal with friends. I had the grilled crab cakes. They were delicious and fresh. All crab, very little breading. I always have cocktail sauce with my crab cakes, and even that was good. The view of the boats and the water was so relaxing. I will definitely return. read more

Came here for a quick bite, as the food is always perfect; however this time I was a little disappointed. I went with fish which was on special and it was just very bland. I had to add some salt and some pepper just to spruce it up but it was still bland and very underwhelming. As for my house salad I got the creamy garlic dressing and it was more like mayonnaise then an actual dressing which is odd because. The prime rib was ordered too, and that wasn't as good as usual. A bit of a let down, definitely a fluke experience...this could have easily been a three star, but I've had so many excellent meals that weren't rated, so couldn't do a full three stars. I'll be back, but I was bummed out after my meal :( read more

Food, service, cleanliness are all way under expectation. Prices are ridiculously high.

Went there this past Friday evening by boat. Had to wait in the river for 15 minutes to get a slip. The restaurant was very busy, both outside and inside. Was a bit surprised that the food came out in a fairly good time and all 8 of us remarked how great our apps and each of our dishes were. Definitely recommend this restaurant read more

Live music, great atmosphere on the patio. Always a great time at Crews Inn! Tiki bar is the best! read more

Adding another star as we went back last Friday. Cocktails still a bit weak so ordering wine or beer is a better bet. Having said that, I ordered the La Belle style perch and it was truly one of the tastiest fish dishes I hav ever had! My wife's mahi-mahi was still in the 3 star range, however. read more

Don't get me wrong, the view is great but the food was just okay. Crews Inn is on the water and I love a restaurant on the water, on a nice day! The service here was pretty slow, although it seemed not busy. I would definitely go back again and maybe try something different on the menu! read more

People say this place is great but every time I go I find it very underwhelming. Food is just ok. Service is always good.

5 stars as far as I'm concerned!! We went there for a St Paddy's day boat ride that starts st Crews Inn with a small buffet...corned beef and cabbage or course. Very good and they had enough for the 150 of us on the boat. When the ride was over we hit the bar and grabbed a table. They had a good DJ and the wait staff was loaded up with us all. Probably 1/2 of the people on the boat went into the bar at once, but they handled it great!!!! We ordered beers and nachos. The nachos were REALLY good...I'm a tough nacho judge. We got the ground beef and the chicken. They also have tuna nachos which I will never review because tuna nachos???? Nope. Would like to go back when it's a regular night and just have dinner because the menu looks really nice. read more

Love this place! The best sea burgers in the state! My Dad and I go here every time I visit him in Michigan. Plus the wait staff is good too , especially Debbie, she always takes care of us. Really friendly, and helpful read more

I enjoy the view here. It's typically busy when I visit since I'm a boater I tend to go after we get back from the water. I like the clam chowder and the sampler seafood platter is nice. Their calamari is also a good dish. I was there for the Parade of Lights, they had a crazy long wait but I was able to scoop 2 seats at the bar. Luckily we able to get out food fast. read more

The view is awesome, my Caesar salad (9.95) was great, but they charged 3.75 for each of my 3 shrimp in the salad (11.25). Regular sized shrimp. So my ceasar salad ( lunch size) was $21.20. Craziness. I ordered a margarita and it was 11.00 with a .50 cent up charge because it was frozen ! So with tip, a lunch size salad and a frozen margarita my bill was over $40.00. Make sure you confirm how much each shrimp will cost. Not designated on menu. Just said add shrimp, chicken or salmon for extra charge. Ridiculous!! read more

This restaurant is located near the end of North River Road along the Clinton River. They have seating both inside and out on the deck by the water. They also have boat docks. With an extensive menu, and lots of seafood dishes available, I have ordered the tilapia sandwich the last two times I visited. It is served on a bun, with pickle, lettuce and tomato on the side.I thought I had tartar sauce with my visit last week, but last night's sandwich came with a red sauce, which was good as well. Others around the table had different meals, and I noticed the steak sandwich looked especially good. Service wasn't the best a week ago, but last night we had a different waitress and the service was excellent. read more

Absolutely phenomenal experience!! We sat at the bar, our waitress Ally met us with a smile and very prompt and efficient service. We started out with coconut shrimp appetizer, they were huge and the sauce was fantastic. For dinner my husband had the Angus reserve sirloin steak and fries. It tasted more like a fillet. My meal was the Labelle perch dinner, honestly the best perch I have ever had in my life and the cheesy potato soup was phenomenal. Not kidding!! Friendly staff, great views, amazing food!Coconut Shrimping read more

Food was okay. Was pretty disappointed with the limited lunch menu. But, the water views were nice.

Love this place. Tommy is sure to take care of you. The Prime Rib is my favorite....when it's back!
