Stopped in at Hammer's Pub & Grub during a trip to the Lake City area and was really impressed. The…read moreatmosphere is classic pub done right -- casual, comfortable, and entertaining. Ordered the Angry Jack Hammer with bison substituted for the beef patty. Cajun seared, fire roasted jalapeños, pepper jack, chipotle sauce -- it had a great kick without being overwhelming. The bison was a nice touch, leaner and cleaner than a standard burger but still packed with flavor. If you're passing through northern Michigan, this place is worth the stop. Will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

Service Yeah, we had to wait forever also. I think it's…read morebecause they are more bar than grill. My big problem was they had removed items from the menu due to being out of burger. Sure would have been nice to have been told about that prior to ordering drinks and appetizer. And honestly, if you run out of burger, there are plenty of places to pick up some ground beef within a mile of their place. Also out of tea. How do you run out of tea? Get a tea bag and add some water. I guess it is easier to just be lazy and do nothing. Lastly, the bartender is quite the snippy one. I don't think this place has a thought of the customer though from the other reviews I see. Food Well, my wife did get the French Dip. Meat to bun ratio was definitely in the bread and their profit margin side. I'll attach a photo. More like a bread sandwich. Fries are really good. The jalapeño nails were ok. They say they prepare them there, but they sure tasted like frozen and fried. I'll defer to them saying it's in-house, but that isn't saying much for them then. So, 50/50 on the food. Service is not good like others are saying. And it takes forever to get the simplest of menu item. There are a bunch of nice places in Lake City. If I were visiting, I'd avoid this place and take my $$ elsewhere. I read another persons review that the owner was drinkin' in his place and being less than cordial around his customers. I got that vibe all day long here. Your choice. Just saying.

Now my son purchased his 1st quadrunner and leaves for the US Army next week. So a good trail ride was needed. After a few hiurs this morning we headed to the bar. Nice easy drive over and being a Thursday early, the place was not busy. Nice clean bar with friendly service just as it was years ago. Hamburgs were the special and the boy got one with the housemade sauce and fresh cut french fries. Looked good and he enjoyed it. I opted for beef nachos and they were also good. Hopefully I can return again soon They bar also has live music weekly and a 3 day party for July 4th

It wasn't even that busy, but only 1 of the 2 bartenders were making drinks, which made it that much worse that we couldn't get our drinks.
