    Cheers to a Beautiful Mess! What an amazing, cute, and little backyard brewery! Starving Artist is an amazing little brewery in Ludington and I'm so happy I found it. A great spot to get a nice craft beer and in a great atmosphere! The owner is probably the friendliest guy I ever met and takes his time with each person he serves! If you're in the area definitely look this place up!

    We have been wanting to stop at this brewery for quite some time. Located in a rural area, Starving Artist Brewing is located in a small barn behind the owners house. We ended up splitting a flight of 5 beers. WOW!!!!! We were so excited to try the unique beer options. My favorite was the Coconut Beer and he enjoyed the Dark Cherry Red. We really liked all of them and can't wait to come back and try some of their new releases. They also participate in the Tagabrews.

    3 strangers I ran into that swear they're part of my family ;-)

    The new chef has a great new menu featuring some Mexican cuisine. The fish tacos are amazing. Best…read moreI've had! I'd recommend trying it out soon!

    I visited Timbers back in 2017ish when they did their reboot and it was fabulous. People were…read morealways waiting for tables back then and the food was great. Today we visited and it was awful. It is so sad to see that this restaurant has completely went down hill. Things started off fine. We were greeted at the door and seated right away. We then waited 50 minutes for our food to come out. Our appetizers came out quickly because they were just deep fried apps, but our entrees took 50 minutes. Our appetizers didn't taste right like the oil was old or something. The onions rings did not look appetizing, a darker color to them from the oil? My friend has the fish and chips and said the fish had good flavor but it was chewy and soggy. My other friend had the fettuccine Alfredo and didn't even eat it. We all tried it and it didn't taste like Alfredo. It had tomatoes in it too. My other friend had the salmon and rice pilaf and thought it was good. I had the cowboy burger. It was a really good burger, the patty was on the thinner side and it definitely wasn't cooked all the way as shown in picture. I appreciated that they used real bacon and not microwave cheap bacon. The bun was a little small for the burger but it was packed with onion rings, bacon and bbq sauce. Again, the onion rings weren't great. The manager/our waitress Mandy was kind and attentive. She asked why I didn't want a box for my burger, and I just said it wasn't really cooked all the way. Then she shared about how things have been rough there and she is hoping to turn it around with being recently hired. She shared how the chef "has no clue what he is doing." Whoever owns Timbers is going to have to close their doors because no one is going to visit a restaurant that is not enjoyable. It was a Saturday night at 5-6pm and there were only 4 tables with people dining. That is a big red flag if your business only has 4 tables on a Saturday. The atmosphere is great, they have an upstairs and a small deck out back, and it is just so sad it is going to waste. There is free street parking and a small parking lot next to the restaurant. Overall I hope this place can turn around.
