Cary's H we stopped in for a drink and this young lady was amazing. Very happy, friendly, unbelievably had the best customer service.

Millie's is one of those restaurants that has something for everyone, and will appease everyone, but to be honest, I forgot what we ordered and ate as soon as we left. I had to look at my photos in order to remember our meal. That's not to say it was bad. Not at all! Just that the only thing I remember is that the prices are slightly higher than I think they should be. (Although, that seems to be the case at every restaurant on Mackinac Island. They have you trapped, and they know it.) We started with the smoked whitefish dip, which is a popular thing in this part of Michigan. It came piping hot with melted cheese on it, and served with crispy pita chips and crostini. I'm glad I tried it! I love me a good meatloaf sandwich, so when I saw meatloaf sliders in the menu, I had to get them. These sliders are made with pretzel buns, which are not my favorite because I feel like they're never soft enough. A nice white bun would have been so much better. I got a side Caesar salad, and it was fine. We also ordered a chicken tenders basket, the Low Carb Platter (just a cheeseburger without a bun and a side of cottage cheese), and a kids' cheeseburger. They do have a kids menu here -- just ask. Millie's gets very busy! We had to wait almost 30 minutes for a table. But it's centrally located in the middle of downtown Mackinac, so I wouldn't expect anything less. read more

This was a great place to take a break mid Mackinac Island day. We started with blueberry lemon drops and sangria and they were delicious but I did miss having sugar rim on my lemon drop. Next we shared 2 entrees - the fish and chips and the yooper beef pastie which I've never even heard before and had to try because "when in Rome".... They were both delicious. The fish was crispy and not heavily greasy. The fries were hot and fresh. And the pastie....wow! Just delicious. We all thought the tarter sauce was amazing also. The service seemed a bit slow especially waiting on refills but I think a few of them were new and we were there between the lunch and dinner rush so I think they were doing prep things. read more

A great stop for lunch! It was not very crowded, through the streets were. We had fish tacos, a generous portion of clam chowder, and fries as well as a few delicious drinks. The service was great and ambiance quaint. We would return again! read more

We checked out Millie's on Main for lunch at the recommendation of a staff member (and year-round resident) at Hotel Iroquois. A great spot, located right where visitors board for the public carriage tours! We stopped in around 12pm and by the time we left, every table was filled. Our party enjoyed a beautiful kale salmon salad, delicious and slightly spicy whitefish tacos with mango salsa, and a pasty with coleslaw and gravy. If I were to go there again, I would definitely get the pasty, hands down. read more

While visiting the island we stopped in for a quick lunch. Service was very quick and friendly. We had the pastie which is like a pot pie rolled up. Pretty tasty. Opted for gravy on the side. Fish and chips were good too, enough fries for an army! lol. Stop by if visiting the island. read more

My husband said smash burger was delicious but I had the Pasty. The meat was dry inside and the pastry was very doughy not at all flakey in texture. Ambiance was fine, service was not slow or anything bad just that our waitress asked how things were right around the time we had completed eating. Had to take a bottle of ketchup off of neighboring table since waitress hadn't come with it. Oh well not the best experience nor the worst. read more

Service was good til the end, then she disappeared for a bit, But that still wasn't too bad. Whitefish dip was good but the bread was stale. The pastry wrapped item had zero flavor. Tasted like a frozen dinner. Low carb meal had way too much salt. We would never go back if this restaurant was in our area. read more

Millie's was absolutely packed. It would be a great bar scene. The food scene to me was meh - typical pub food. Had the fish and chips. They provide an overwhelming amount of fries. So many that they obviously are cold by the time you get thru half. The fish itself was a white fish straight from the lake. I mentioned I don't really like white fish and the server said this isn't like east coast white fish so I gave it a go. It was so greasy. I could barely taste the fish but def could taste the grease. Not sure about the coleslaw just wasn't for me. Loved the tartar sauce. The servers were friendly and loved our server. read more

Our grand dog's name is Millie and she is a black dog so, of course, we had to stop and check this place out. It's a bar/restaurant and since we weren't hungry, we just bellied up to the bar for a beer. They didn't have their name brand beer on tap (they were out), so that was a bummer. I opted for a local bottle which was good. It was extra cold which made it even better. We tried to get a t-shirt but they didn't have any merch. Service was good. read more

We always go to Millie's when on Mackinac. It's an unassuming place, but the food is fantastic. My husband and I both had the NY strip. It was perfectly seasoned and cooked just the way we liked it. The dinner comes with some of the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. Even the vegetable side was good. They do have a good kids menu and my son loved the grilled cheese. They don't usually have a wait and the staff is super friendly. read more

My husband and I did a little DIY northern Michigan food tour at Millie's. The whitefish dip was good, though the dipping items were lackluster. The garlic bread tasted pretty stale and the pita chips were store bought (standard in Mackinac though). The whitefish was good, but the standout of the meal was the pasty. Theirs is a true dinner entree compared to the handheld pasties we've had before. The gravy, the crust, and the filling were all fantastic. Great service and cozy atmosphere. read more

Loving the vibe here. A lot of great food for great price. We were so mad that we couldn't finish all of it. Service was fantastic and we sat next to the window which made for some excellent people watching. Dinner and a show. Meatloaf was just like grandma's but with a nice crispiness to the edges. Served with mash potatoes-delicious and coleslaw done right. I'm surprised at how many places put way too much Mayo in their coleslaw but Millie's knows how to find the right balance. Pasta Alfredo with chicken. Better than the Olive Garden and on the boarder of too much season(I know)! Still really delicious and I would highly recommend. Lots of food we couldn't finish but the atmosphere was delightful and I will definitely come back. Adding to my favorites of the island. read more

Came here for dinner and enjoyed our experience. The good: + The best classic old fashioned that we've had on island. It was spot on perfect. + Their truffle fries were crispy and delicious + The service was amazing--truly phenomenal + I got a caesar salad with salmon and it included a large piece of salmon that was grilled to a slightly charred perfection The less than ideal: + The irish coffee is just ok. Not sure if the Buena Vista Cafe in San Francisco has spoiled me for all other irish coffees but the one here is a solid ok + The bleu cheese truffle fries are truffle fries with a small dish of bleu cheese dressing served with it. It just wasn't what I was expecting. I do like bleu cheese dressing, but I was expecting something a bit more (bleu cheese crumbles on the fries, maybe?) Overall, a positive experience, though! And, by all means, if you're looking for the best old fashioned on the island--this might well be it. Get to it! read more

Ambiance is very sweet really felt like a bit of a step back in time! Food was very good the whitefish chowder I was told by my party was amazing! Drinks were good! Staff kind and helpful! read more

After a long bike around the island, I was craving iced tea and some food. Service was great. Prices were affordable (compared to other places on the island). Ordered the kale salad with chicken. And the whitefish tacos. And iced tea refills were free! Great people-watching too. Can see people getting on and off the ferry. read more

Attempted to walk in the door with my dog because it says "dog friendly" online. Was met with multiple rude servers saying the place is "not dog friendly" then complained "your dog stepped on my foot" in a thick accent. Just rude people. I can hardly imagine how rude the service is. read more

Super great service! Mackinac Island can get crazy busy, but we were seated at Millie's right away. Food selection is great! Our group had chicken sandwich, turkey Rueben and a burger. Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. There are many food options on the "main drag" there, and we were happy with Millies. read more

This was exactly what all the great reviews said it was! An old restored building which is just adorable and the service was outstanding! My hubby and his sister said that the chicken salad with the dried Cherries was absolutely delicious and not too much mayonnaise. They both absolutely loved it! I had the chicken and wild rice soup, which I highly recommend and my brother in law had the olive burger and he said it was amazing. Fresh and flavorful! read more

Small inside but nice. Had lunch while on the island. Good salad and the fish was pretty good. The Millie's draft beer wasn't my favorite but overall a decent meal. read more

Great waitress... chicken sandwich good ... smashed burger decent... fish chowder okay.. fish basket okay fries okay ... coleslaw flavorless read more

Just stayed on the island for the closing weekend and this was the best restaurant we ran into. The food was amazing and the prices were actually decent compared to the rest of the island. You will not be disappointed. We actually asked our waitress to thank the chef for us because of how great the food was. read more

I'd like to give this place 3.5 stars, but since Yelp doesn't do half stars, rounding down to 3. My mom and I both got the "Unplanked Whitefish": the dark fatty part of the broiled whitefish tasted a little fishy, but I liked the seasoning they used. The duchess potatoes were good - I liked the crusty part on top, and I also enjoyed the crunchy Parmesan topping on the tomato. The green beans and red peppers on the side were good, as they were not too greasy or salty. My dad got the pan fried perch: it was lightly breaded and not too greasy or salty, just like it should be. My brother got the beef pastie, which was delicious, like a beef pot pie. We shared a cherry cobbler for dessert: I appreciated the fresh whipped cream on top and the nice warm pie crust layer. However, underneath it had canned cherry pie filling, which was just okay. This place overall was good, but in my opinion, not as spectacular as I expected based on the reviews I read on here before coming. read more

Brooke was a AMAZING bartender!!! Fabulous and funny!!!! Super efficient behind a very busy bar! She kept a smile on her face and made our dining experience so much fun!!!!!! read more

I don't often give out 5 stars but in this case, it was worth it. We arrived on Oct 14 and chose Millie's to have dinner at as it had good reviews and was a short distance from our hotel. Our server, Bob, was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. 5 stars. I ordered the Neptune Pasta. The texture was on point, not too creamy, perfectly cheesy, and had a good number of tasty shrimp and scallops. The French beans were crisp and tender all at the same time. Hubbie ordered the NY strip with mushrooms. It came out a perfect medium rare. And the garlic mashed potatoes were so flavorful. You could really taste the garlic. We also ordered the cherry cobbler... And ate every last crumb! Food - 5 stars. Oh and btw, the food came out lickety split! Other: 1. Not too large of a place. A few booths... More tables... Bar. Tasteful decor. 2. They said they were closing that weekend, earlier than many of the other establishments on the island. So I'm glad we were able to dine with them before they did. read more

SERVICE: 5 FOOD QUALITY: 5 DRINK QUALITY: N/A ORDER TIME: 5 AESTHETICS: 3 NOISE LEVEL: 5 MENU SELECTION: 5 OVERALL EXPERIENCE: 4.67 I don't live in the area so my review will be vague and to the point. The aesthetics were nothing special and it was just a small corner restaurant. Thought it might be a little more decorative being on the Main Street. The food was absolutely amazing. The burger was juicy and delicious. The fries were cooked to perfection. The service was superb. Definitely worth stopping in to get a bite to eat. read more

Great servers, and they clearly love working there! The perch dinner is wonderful, but predictably doesn't make food leftovers. Good cocktail list of classics and originals. Wonderful atmosphere/ambiance that can be a great for a dinner or drinks spot. I wish it was a little less expensive, but they are the current average island prices. read more

My first time at Millie's, the service was excellent. The food was tasty, I had the Millie's Chicken Salad w/ chips but I thought it could use more of those Michigan cherries, still tasty though. I would go back, it's a little loud but it's a bar *shrug* read more

Service was fantastic. The planked whitefish and perch were delicious. The lemon caper sauce with perch was yummy. Teen had a cheeseburger and it was a great. Lots of options...someone beside us got the meatloaf and it looked mouthwatering. We will be back! read more

They were out of a couple things we specifically went there for (chowder and shrimp), what we did get we loved. Nice server, great pastie and very good french onion soup. Kid's menu was a lifesaver and it has nice ambience that's a bit different than some of the other offerings in the strip. read more

We had the smoked white fish dip, fish tacos and fries; everything was fresh and delicious. I wish there were more menu items. Not the restaurants fault, but the city streets reek! If the door to the restaurant is open, you're smelling horse stank. read more

Got in easily without a reservation. Great service from the team. Garlic Parmesan Truffle fries were hard to put down. Perch was outstanding. Whitefish was also tasty, but not as good as the Perch. Restaurant was a bit noisy, but not too bad. Recommend it for someone looking for a good dinner on Mackinac Island without prior reservations and reasonably cost effective. read more

The home made Alfredo was amazing. Beat we have had ever. Also had delicious old fashions. Overall a great experience.

We had THE BEST service from our server, Brooke, that I have probably ever experienced at a restaurant. She was professional, energetic, engaging, charming. They need to hold on to this young lady! The food was also fantastic. We had a long day with a 50 mile bike tour. Food came out quickly and they were accommodating of my special requests. Chicken Alfredo was great, my husband had the fried whitefish basket and thought it was awesome. We also had two desserts- don't skip them! The walnut apple crisp was bomb and the chocolate lava cake was decadent. Would recommend both! read more

This was the first restaurant me and my husband tried while visiting Mackinac Island. It was really good! Our server was very friendly and attentive.
