    Driving thru Michigan we kept seeing their billboards on the highway so we decided to stop for lunch on a Monday. It was not very crowded and we're seating immediately. For some reason it was very cold inside so we asked to be moved onto their patio even tho is overlooks the back of their building and parking lot. My wife had their Southwest Salad which had a lot of BBQ Ranch dressing on it. Suggest it on the side! I had their Detroit Style pizza with sausage and pepperoni made with a Featherbone Bourbon crust. it was just ok as the sauce is basically on top and not evenly spread on the pizza. Their menu has some unique items but nothing really impressed us. The interior is very nice and if it wasn't so cold,it might have been a more enjoyable experience.

    We were from out of town and had researched places to go for dinner and Staymaker seemed like a great choice; it was not. It was confusing to look at the website and figure out what portion was the distillery, restaurant and outdoor golf area. Unfortunately, it just seems to be a hyped up tourist location. Our waitress was nice, but seemed to be understaffed. It was incredibly noisy and almost impossible to carry a conversation so we mainly sat and stared at each other; occasionally attempting to mime a sentence or two. The smoked trout spread was enjoyable and if you do visit, worth trying. The southwest salad isn't worth trying; it is a decent size but the chicken is flavorless and the onion rings take over the dish We shared The Journeyman pizza and it was mediocre but again, not worth trying. The crust was doughy and heavy and the toppings weren't evenly dispersed so several bites were just blue cheese and some were just olives. Overpriced for what it was. Would not recommend especially with the other restaurants that are around. Our biggest regret was spending our one night (and a couple hundred dollars) at this establishment.

    Not our first time here, but we tried all new things tonight. We got the pork rinds app/ didn't love that the sauce came on top, because the kids weren't able to eat the buffalo sauce (spicy). *Next time I'd get the sauces on the side! It was a Monday evening at 5pm and we waited 15 mins for a table. Our service was okay, but lots of management staff circling to support servers.

    One of my new favorites! Such a hidden gem in the area- this place stands and delivers on AH-mazing cocktails and food. My husband and I stopped for a quick lunch, and we were impressed with everything. Great service, and all the vibes inside. Love!

    The biscuits and gravy is really good. The pizza was just ok. I did not love the sauce. The beer was good. Friendly service. A while back, I was here with a small group for dinner. I thought I posted this. I tried the pickles and steak with potatoes. There was no salt and pepper on the table and they do not have steak sauce. Overall, it was ok though.

    Part of the Journeyman experience! A must if in area! On a Sunday early afternoon, there was a 45 minute plus wait, so we opted to sit an the bar and was seated within 5 minutes. Located in an 1800 Featherbone and Corsets Factory. There were several empty tables, so not sure what was going on. However, the service at the bar was excellent. I tried the Purple Rain and appreciated our bartender telling me to get my camera ready. I was not expecting the drink to change color, but it did. The mixture of flavors, worked so well together. My husband had a cherry old fashioned a barrel aged old fashioned. The drinks are worth stopping in. For food we had the Journeyman Pizza with bourbon crust. It was Detroit style pizza , but was nothing special. The sauce seemed to be quickly spooned on the pizza resulting in uneven drops and the olives were not sliced as we expected . My husband also had the potato chowder soup. He said it was good, but salty. They offer tours and there is a putting green! They sell their whiskey and bourbon , along with other merchandise. When in Michigan , we will definately return.

    Staying nearby, we stumbled on this spot and loved it! Delicious Detroit style pizza, excellent and great bourbon to take home. Service was A+ definitely stopping back next time!

    Lots of great cocktail options. I had the OVG Turkey, it was really good and a nice portion size. The fries were tasty as well. I would not recommend the potato salad as a side. It was way too acidic. No one at my table enjoyed it. My friend had the Adobe pork sandwich and enjoyed it. I had an Apple cider drink, it was delicious! Definitely would come here again for drinks and food! Lots of take home options as well!

Having a private room made the evening feel so special, and the team was incredibly accommodating throughout the entire planning process. They were attentive to our dietary needs and worked with us to make sure everyone had delicious options and felt included. We also had some trouble connecting to the room's speaker to play our music, and the staff was so patient and determined to help. They took the time to troubleshoot the issue with us until everything was working because they genuinely wanted us to have the best night celebrating my sister. That extra level of care and hospitality meant so much and made the evening even more memorable. The food, service, and atmosphere were all outstanding, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special occasion. We highly recommend this restaurant for anyone planning a private event or celebration. Thank you for helping make my sister's bachelorette dinner so special!
