When I wait all winter for summer, and the weather is perfect, I'll always choose outdoor seating!

My husband ordered a beer and we put in our order to split the chicken, bacon cheddar wrap and upgraded to the onion rings. THE ONION RINGS stole the show--- Wowzer.

I know I'm in the minority on this view, but I find it pretty tacky that there was a note on one of the menus that said "if you can't afford to tip you can't afford to eat out." I agree with the message, but I shouldn't be hearing from the restaurant itself.

After attempting to flag our bartender down we finally got a response from another person in the bar who was able to bring us one single menu for 3 people. After our menu we sat and waited a half hour and watched everyone else around us get acknowledged and served. 30 minutes later we put enough cash on the bar to cover drinks and walked out. This bar seems to only cater to locals. I truly had high hopes when I walked in. If your from out of town just go to Applebees your better off.

Fifteen minutes later, the server came out and said pasta isn't available for lunch. I asked if they had any non alcoholic beer. Ten minutes later the server brought me a Bud zero. Which I didn't order. I had just asked initially IF they had any. Bid zero is a sucky drink (Fetch in nearby Whitehall makes a very nice n a beer). I sent it back. Then ordered a salad with the ahi tuna. Several minutes later we got water. My wife's salad came first of course. 15 minutes later mine did. We had to ask for water refill. Then the bill came and it still had the Bud zero on it. I had to wish ten minutes to snag the server to get the bill taken care of. The server was apparently new. That's fine. We had a new server at The Deck in Muskegon the other night, but she said so right away, and was excellent. It did appear that some of the other servers were more attentive. And I note other reviews are 4-5 stars. But I have to write a re iré based on the experience that we had, which was sub par, and we would not return.

Even though we're locals, we'd actually never eaten there because we've been told not to. We decided to give it a go. Not only did a meal for just two people with one appetizer cost $100 with tip. The food was absolutely horrible. I just had a plain chicken sandwich that literally should've been no more than 12 bucks. My husband had the Italian white fish dish and it was disgusting. He had a bone in his fish and it was basically just a bunch of Parmesan cheese on top of a piece of fish. The fish still had its bloodlines in it, so it was not exactly the tastiest either. His mashed potatoes tasted like all they used was pepper. Thankfully, I can say the french fries and onion rings were delicious and that was it. The water even tasted absolutely awful. Thankfully the service wasn't bad. The atmosphere was so so. I feel like we wasted so much money for absolutely nothing and I can say we will never go there again.

Great to have that option. The regular ones were excellent. Spicy were terrible. Gyro was a small serving size and flavorless. Nice amount of feta and other toppings, very little lamb meat. Tuna was good, not great. Prob 3.5 stars All in all, food doesn't have to be perfect to be good and you can truly enjoy going out if the food is "just" good. Will definitely go back and try other menu options. Since there's a great variety we'd likely find something excellent.

The fried pickles are in French fry form. Perfectly coated and crispy. The pretzels were buttery and soft. Would recommend both! Not anything special about the burger or chicken strips according to the others with whom I was dining. The nachos on the other hand were excellent! Fresh lettuce, tomato, and onions. Great tasting ground beef. The half size was more than enough for a normal appetite. It was our first time in the area. I'd definitely check out other spots if in the area again before committing to this one, but not disappointed with our visit.

Met up with a group of 5 to get drinks and food before checking into our Airbnb. The first thing we noticed was that there were no tables for groups larger than 4, so we grabbed a chair from another table and all crammed around a high top. There appeared to only be 1 waitress working and while she was friendly she was not attentive. Food took 50minutes to come out and drinks ran empty without refills. I had ordered 2 appetizers and skipped the mains. First up were the fried Pickle Chips that came with a ranch dip. The batter was flavorful, and the pickle fried to perfection. The second app I had gotten were the Bavarian Pretzel Sticks which came with a house made beer cheese. The pretzels were warm and doughy without being dry and the beer cheese was incredible. The rest of the table ordered wings and a burger, and everyone had great things to say about their food. The food was great but the wait time, lack of seating, and lack of staff really put a damper on the experience. This pub is currently sitting at a 5.3 on my Beli and it feels like a fair rating. Food is on point, customer service needs work.
