The new owners of Bates Bar and Grill, formally Lone Wolf, are doing a great job. The food is…read moregreat. The service and management is great. They have updated the restrooms, furniture, carpet, lighting, and kitchen equipment. They have a neat indoor outdoor patio and large back yard for special events like bands to wrestling. The absolute best artisan pizza and burgers. It is not fancy and easy to drive by but it is worth a stop.

Pleasant interior and the kind of place that has the sauces on the table. Service was amazing. Not the best ribs I have ever had but quite good. I enjoyed the sauce quite a bit.

We were on our way home to Lansing and picked this place at random and we're so glad we did! We're…read moregoing to be sure to stop here when we venture to the UP from now on! The gentleman who served us was simply a delight and you can hear his love for his community and this bar when he speaks which made our entire dining experience so much more enjoyable! Food -- My husband ordered the Mushroom and Swiss burger and it was cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly, and super juicy -- he particularly appreciated that they toasted the bun. I ordered the whitefish basket and was very happy that the breading wasn't overly thick and overpowering, but the tarter sauce was worth writing this review and I could have brought some home with me! We ordered the whitefish dip for an appetizer, which was fabulous, but I'm not sure the chips were the best pairing. Decor -- There are antique tools on the wall that are really fun to look at and guess what they were used for (some we have at home and still use), There's a much more modern boxing machine and games for kids, too. Bathroom -- A little awkward, I'm not sure a wheelchair user without assistance would be able to swing the shape of the bathroom. I did have a chuckle that there's a "men's" room and a just not men's room (it was whited out). Overall, an absolute delight and great place to be able to stretch our legs and get some good food. We don't drink, so I can't tell you anything about the alcohol -- but I hear their Shirley Temples are famous!

Skip to the end to see my rating scale…read more To be fair, you need to drive 30 minutes out of your way to get anywhere in the Upper Peninsula, but ByGeorge would be a worthwhile trip. They have everything I look for in a brewery - outdoor seating that's dog friendly, food handily available, and a solid beer menu. Our bartender was friendly and knowledgeable. Super helpful to mama as she tried to decide which beers to get in her flight. They actually have two outdoor seating areas - a nice patio just off the bar and a rooftop deck above the patio. We arrived too late to order from their kitchen but there's a pizza joint next door that looked like it had good stuff too. Overall, good experience, and I'd be happy to drive a half hour off the beaten path to visit again. My rating scale: 1 - Just don't 2 - You'll survive, but there are better choices close by 3 - Good choice if you're in the area 4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here 5 - I'd try to convince my wife to drive an hour just to come here
