Great service and variety of flavors keeps us coming back whenever we are in town…read more We went on an early Sunday evening around 5:30. Even though we had a party of 8 they were able to seat us right away. The restaurant is pretty spacious with seating available for larger groups but it is best to call in advance to check on wait times before heading out since they don't take reservations. We got the harvest pizza, the parugula and the bbq chicken pizza. We also ordered 2 salads, Cheryl and Caesar salads. We enjoyed them all. We also asked for hot honey on the side for those that wanted that extra sweet kick. Service was very friendly. The pizzas came out at a reasonable time. The restaurant does get a little loud but since we were seated off the side and in a corner table, it wasn't too bad.

The environment, the experience the food, the flavor... can't beat it.

The building is a cool very old brick maybe factory or warehouse of some type. Has that industrial look to it. We ordered at the bar and our bartender was very friendly and offered us to try some beers. I had the IPA and my wife had the wheat, and both were excellent! They have a large selection for any palate, and wine too. They have a great food menu but we did not try anything. I saw on Facebook where they make asparagus soup! If in the area and need some food and beer, give them a try. They get bands throughout the year, and the variety sounded good.

Tons of fresh baked goods, homemade pastas, vegetarian dishes, and sandwiches. I tried their frittata of the day which was broccoli and cheese and it was a giant slice! They also served it with a side of honey mustard balsamic dressing, which I thought was weird at first, but the flavors actually worked well together. There's a huge selection of flavored tea, fresh pastas, and merchandise in the cafe as well.

He got a double smash burger, no veggies, sauce on the side and that came with fries. My sandwich, the Billy bird, also came with fries. The Billy Bird sandwich has turkey, tacos, American cheese, and their burger sauce on sourdough bread. While this was our first time here, and we didn't get any drinks since we got takeout, we had been here when it was still North Shore Inn. They were owned by North Pier Brewing Company across the street, so this restaurant has changed a bit when it comes to the menu but the ownership has stayed the same and the beers they offer are made by their own brand. Their cocktail menu has updated as well and you can take home their beer in 4pk can form if you'd like. Food was fantastic and I will definitely be looking forward to dining in one day to get the full experience. The poutine, bbq pork rinds, and soft pretzel all sound fantastic on the appetizer menu so all of those are going to be reasons to keep going back. I'll also be interested in trying the pickled gimlet and the Great Lakes transfusion (both cocktails). We shall be back.

It was unclear what they meant but she seemed unwilling to put us on the list when we called at about 5:00. So, we decided to take our chances and stopped by about 6:15 and immediately got seated.....probably helped it was just the 2 of us as they were very busy. Our server, Zoe was very good, well versed on the menu and was attentive but not overly so....excellent at her job. The highlight however (for me) was watching the entire hard working staff work together. It was like a finely orchestrated ballet. Mostly young people who worked extremely hard and never seemed to miss a beat! The owner or manager stopped by to check on us (seems rare these days) and was very friendly. The food was good, not out of this world good but very satisfying and we were happy.

We were greeted as we came in and they let us know about their Easter egg specials for discounts on their products. Just like a wine tasting at a winery, one can sample the olive oil and vinaigrette variety here. They have small sample cups available for each variety. I love me some good olive oil to dip in some good bread and Parmesan cheese. I came across their slow roasted garlic olive oil and had to buy it. Love that garlic smell. It was originally $30 for 500 ml but with discount came out to $25. Overall, service was great, I felt welcomed and product was top notch. Would come back again!
