Got our drink order right away then gave us menus. I had the BLT, my husband had the perch, onion rings and my girl had a grilled cheese. Nice big slices of bread and everything was served hot. Enjoyed the touch tunes jukebox so I was able to harass the entire establishment with my playlist. Everything was great until I needed to use the bathroom. Then it was not so great The restroom itself was clean and stocked but it smelled awful. It was a mixture of sewage smells. I assume it was because of how close they are to the RV park and shallow water but DANG! Definitely changes things. Can't smell it while you are eating though.

Unfortunately the restaurant was out of many items and ingredients and the bartender said they have been out of some since the 4th of July. My boyfriend had a burger while I ordered pulled pork sliders. They were out of slider buns so they gave me a hamburger bun instead. Delicious food regardless. The fries were probably the best I ever had. My boyfriend's burger was nothing to write home about. And the chips that came with his meal was past stale. We told a gentleman how delicious his pizza looked and he gave us a slice. Definitely getting the Detroit pizza the next time we are in the area!

Food was made right away and brought out and hot and fresh. Condiments were brought to the table. The homemade ranch is great. Prices are really good for the amount of food you get. Burgers are amazing. Fried mushrooms and onion rings were so good. Fries were nothing special. The place hasn't been updated in decades but thats okay, thats what makes it special. Took me back to when we used to go there when I was younger. Will definitely be going back sooner.

Such a damn good burger EVERYTIME! Sorry no pics to share…read morethis time, lol. We stopped in (again) on Saturday Jan 20th and brought my bff. She ordered the jalepeno burger with fries. She ate the whole burger. She loved it. I ordered (my usual) bacon cheeseburger. It has velveeta (squeeze cheese) and bacon bits. (Their burgers have that cheese unless another is requested). I of course added lots of pickles and onions from the table side condiment container). I added some mozzarella sticks to share also. Our other friend ordered the deep fried mushrooms to share. They were sliced portablella mushrooms....delicious with cocktail sauce. The owner is a very personable and friendly man that always checks to see how your food is. We always tell our friends about Heck's bar and will continue to go back everytime we're nearby.

Bird Creek really stood out on its own as having a unique classy, farmhouse style to it that just really set the mood for a good time & I was pretty obsessed with the luscious vines of hops gently swaying with the breeze! The waitstaff here is completely amazing, especially during COVID. The patio seating everywhere was so wonderful, and there was also tons of bar space as well. It's open, it's airy, and you can walk the grounds and check out their greenhouses while you wait, if you need to wait. A true farm to table! The food was absolutely spectacular as well! We got the charcuterie board, which we thoroughly enjoyed, before the bees descended and also thoroughly enjoyed haha. But the waitstaff said that normally the bees were not this "friendly," and that they were only really all up in our businesses because it had rained the day before. But our waiter quickly cleared the board away from us and redirected the bees away from the patio, which is just another testament to how wonderful the waitstaff is! Definitely try the miso portobello burger too! I'm not even vegetarian/vegan and it was honestly SO DELICIOUS! I'm still thinking about it days later! If I ever find myself in the thumb of Michigan again, I will DEFINITELY be stopping by here again!

They have a nice covered patio where they had a live singer who was awesome. Not too loud and really talented. The service was a little slow and our server didn't interact with us very much but the food came out pretty quickly. It was all just ok, nothing to write home about. The Caesar salad was just chopped lettuce, a few croutons, a sprinkle of bagged Parmesan cheese, and a thick Italian dressing rather than Caesar. A crime that it was $15 but an even bigger offense that it was $8 to add chicken to a very mediocre salad. The coconut shrimp was good, we liked the sauces it came with. The kids chicken tenders were hand breaded and tasty. Probably not a place I'd run to go back to but I would visit again if we're in the area.

On busy nights you may have to yell to be heard but it's all good people, vibing. I eat there several times a week and the only problem that I have with the place is that the owner sees me there multiple times but he never acknowledges me. I don't think that's a bad thing, acknowledging a frequent customer, but that and one more thing actually. They fry everything in canola oil which tears my guts up. It's as bad as food poisoning to me. So I'm not eating anything fried there and that's a good thing! You should try the place when in town. The ladies are welcoming and they will take good care of you, no matter if it's just you or your family of 19 is joining you.
