We've been wanting to try this place for some time but they are often full. We got early…read morereservations (parties of 6 or more only) and arrived on time to our table all ready. There are two sides - the bar side and a side with lots of seating. The bar side has seating as well but minimal. We sat on the side with all the seating at a long high top. The chairs had backs so it was very comfortable. They have lots of choices on the menu - I chose the Lemon Herb Ravioli, which sounded light and amazing. Unfortunately, it is swimming in a lemon-y olive oil which ruins the dish completely. If they just drizzled the lemon oil over the pasta, it would be a chef's kiss. I would recommend asking for that on the side - then you can control how much you want on the dish. I also got their "tots" on the side. These aren't your typical tator tots...they are homemade shredded potatoes scooped and fried. My cousin got the same items and when the tots came, it appeared they overly fried one of the orders so just split them up between our two orders. I ate the good ones and my husband sent back the bad ones to have them replaced. They did so without any question, which was nice. My husband had the Gouda Burger with Truffle Fries. He said it was the best burger he'd ever had. The truffle fries were excellent - served with garlic aioli. Highly recommend! So, while my dish was disappointing due to the amount of oil it was swimming in, the pasta and vegees on top tasted good, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and everyone else liked their meals (burgers and fish & chips) so I'm not going to give them a low rating. I'd like to come back and try something different on the menu.

The whole place is open spaced with regular tables, high tops, booths & bar area where you can sit. Lots of area for foot & stroller traffic. Very kid friendly: with high chairs & changing areas in the restroom (parent win)! There were also few families that were there at the same time. The person who served us (sorry couldn't remember her name) but was very friendly, accommodating & over all made our dining experience great.

Not our first time here so we know what to expect. Tried to dine and drink outdoors on the patio…read moreas it was a nice day, however, the outdoor servers were not attentive. We waited 5 or 10 minutes for one of them to take our order but no luck, they were more interested in yacking to each other than taking orders. We decided to head inside where one of the bartenders came over and took our beverage order. The beers were good, 45th Paralyzer, Cherry Bomb, and a Pilsner. When they brought the beers they took our food order. All items we purchased were excellent; poutine fries, ribeye mushroom Swiss sandwich, and the classic cheese burger. WARNING, the poutine fries order is huge, best to split between 2 or 3 people. The building is nice and there are ample outdoor seating options and indoor you can sit at standard tables or high tops. Outside of being ignored outside, this was a great lunch experience.

We worried that we might be under dressed, casually in jeans and tanks. Yelp said this place was great. It was. We dined with 3 kids who all jammed out on the kids meals, spaghetti with homemade noodles, hand breaded chicken tenders and pizza that was SO good. Adults had salmon x2, scallop risotto, eggplant Parm and the almond crusted halibut. Everything was amazing, we were passing forks around like covid never happened. The clam chowder, Devine.

Every time I've stepped foot into this place, I was met with a hearty hello, or a few hey expressions or a hi there! The patrons of this establishment today were extremely pleasant. I love the atmosphere nowadays as well as how it was in the old days and the fact that it is just a wonderful place to unwind from a few months of stress, or go have a good time on the weekends during the seasons that welcome patrons from around not just Alpena, but Michigan itself as well as some random appearances from people out of state. Overall if I wanted to rate this business I would have to give it a 5 and a half stars out of 5. Truly phenomenal to be a person who enjoys the ambience of a space that resembles awesomeness! Thank you. For reference, no I was not drinking at this establishment before legal age, I actually had enjoyed some food and occasional work as a child such as wiping the bar down or sweeping the floor etc.
