Staff warned us about the kitchen being backed up because the recently opened rooftop was packed. (It looked like a frat house nightmare up there. We sat in the dining room with families and other mostly sober people.) We ordered the sweer chili cauliflower appetizer just to kill time and match with a beer, but it turned out to be awesome. And I am generally not a fan of cauliflower substitutions for proteins. The veggie pizza wasn't too long of a wait, and it was solid. Lots of artichokes and olives. We took half for leftovers and it worked well as a cold pizza breakfast. Based on reviews, I wasn't expecting much, but I think this place is underrated. We left feeling like we made a good choice.

Service was meh, but I was told all restaurants during the Cherry Festival would be super busy and would have slow service. I felt that two parties of 5 were seated and served before we got our food. Our party was 6 adults and 5 kids. Great location for going to the Cherry Festival carnival rides after eating.

My girlfriend and I recently returned from a vacation to the area, we spent a day in Traverse City…read more I wasn't impressed with the Workshop in the slightest. Although the wildfire smoke likely kept some people away, we came around mid afternoon in what should be the beginning of prime time hours and the place was empty. Not a good sign. I found it a bit odd that we had to order at the bar, considering only 2 other groups were there. There were like 4 employees just chatting away at the bar as well. At this point I know what I like in craft beers and I usually never have an unpleasant experience trying them, but we liked nothing we ordered on the beer flight! We had put in an order for the BBQ flatbread as an appetizer as well, and the chicken was super dry. I can't blame the sauce for being to spicy since I'm sure it's a popular local brand. That one's on us. We decided to have an actual dinner closer to our cabin.

So I want to be cautious here as I know there is new ownership from what I heard. My wife and I…read morecame here spontaneously as we were in town for the weekend. When we ordered, the bartender didn't drink which made it hard to know what certain beers taste like, but honestly, no judgement because he did the right thing and offered tastes of beer which was awesome and helpful! So service wise I would say great! The beer tasted really good as well and was decently priced. They had a bourbon barrel stout which was pretty good and newly released. The biggest issue we had was with the food. I ordered the spam sandwich with chips and my wife ordered the chicken quesadilla. While the food was cheap, the quality of the food also seems that way too based off what we ordered. The spam sandwich was supposed to be teriyaki flavored, and didn't get any of that. There wasn't a lot of thousand island dressing on it too, which made the sandwich dry. The chips that were served were clearly out of a bag as they were cold, which made it seem like I could have just gotten a bag myself. I would have paid a few dollars extra to get something fresh like fries. While spam comes from a can and I know this, my wife's chicken quesadilla had chicken that was clearly from a can - it was sopping wet, and the meat was very chunky, and very salty. This made us worry the rest of the food may not be very fresh. While we did have that experience, I will say the pretzel bites were really good and did seem fresh, and they were sourdough! So that was nice. I think this place has very good beer, and a really cool bar setup with a nice stage, arcade machines, and much more. However, I wouldn't come back here for lunch. Instead, I would make food at home. I would highly recommend more fresher options, and I would pay a little more for better quality food.

She took the time to walk us through the menu, made great recommendations, and took wonderful care of us throughout our meal. Great food, great service, and such a fun find. What a gem of a pizza eatery in Traverse City! If you're looking for delicious Detroit-style pizza, definitely give this place a try--you won't be disappointed!

Decent pizza with great views…read more Came on a Monday as a visitor to town, but it was very crowded. Out myself on the waitlist and walked across to the beach. About 30 minutes later I was texted and came to be seated. Got a great view from the roof and ordered the Gronk pizza which was basically a meat lovers pizza. They explained the kitchen was backed up and it took a long time to get food, about 45 minutes. When it finally came it was pretty good with lots of tasty toppings. The sauce was a little sweeter than I liked but not bad. All in all not a bad dinner.

When we got there, the hostess warned us that the pizzas were taking up to an hour to make. I appreciate that they warned us before we committed to dining there! We didn't mind the wait. There are no waiters, so you order everything at the bar then they bring your food to you with a table number. I ordered the raspberry beer and it was really good. I typically don't like beer, but I love fruit flavors. As an appetizer, we got the red pepper hummus and it was meh--I didn't really like it. It was thick and had the texture of cold refried beans and instead of pita, it was served with tortilla chips that tasted like Tostitos brand. For my flatbread pizza, I chose the Wolverine which was topped with pineapple, pepperoni, jalapeños. I've never had pineapple on pizza so I can't really be a good judge, but it was alright. I liked how thin the crust was. For dessert, we got the mini ice cream bars as recommended by the woman sitting near us. They're Ice Box Brand Ice Cream Bars by a Michigan-based company. They sell two sizes: regular and mini. I chose a mini toffee crunch and it was the perfect size. It was really good. I'd love to just buy these ice cream bars to have at home!!

I am 4-7 minutes from the store depending on traffic. Upon checking food the pizza is uncut, lopsided, and looks like it has some form of cancer. On top of that no one will answer the phone, I've called 8 times waited an hour+ with no response.

The cooler where the sodas were was quite bare; should've been stocked up especially just being opened since it was still early in the day. They didn't ask me if I needed plates or offered me if I wanted to add on any desert or sides to go with my meal. When I got the pizza, both pizzas were super thin crust. There was no pizza crust whatsoever and barely any sauce/marinara on it either. It was super greasy as you see in the picture. It was even a little burnt looking like it was cooked for too long. Then there was like a garlic butter just poured on top the pizza that I didn't ask for or cared for. I came from Petoskey to get my kids their favorite pizza, and this is what I got. I'm not happy at all and probably will not be coming back!

It wasn't super busy. Fortunately, once we were seated, our waitress was very friendly and helpful and made us feel welcomed. We decided to do a flight. My husband and I tried 5 different cider each. I was a huge fan of the cider that reminded me of fall (apples) called Octorock. But the tropical one, skinny dip sunset, came as a close runner up with pineapple and passion fruit strongly coming through. I also tried the Brom, peach and strawberry feels. The peach was probably my least favorite since I couldn't really taste it. It could have just been my taste buds, too! My husband's favorites were the vanilla and the cinnamon ones. I tried both and agreed. The vanilla really came through and was very aromatic and the cinnamon made me think of fall, especially when I drank it after the octorock. I wonder if they have a combination of both in the fall? We also got dinner while there. I had the fennel sausage pizza with their housemate Italian sausage. It was so good! My husband had the jerk pork shoulder served with rice and beans and said it was delicious and flavorful. Overall, it was a successful dinner and a great way to try different cider! The place has modern decor, well spaced larger tables (even the two seaters are quite roomy). They have an outdoor patio that is dog friendly. Since we took our pup on a couple of adventures, she stayed at the house and napped but we saw a few dogs enjoying the beautiful weather and the social time with their humans. This is definitely a great place for a meal or of you're feeling adventurous about ciders. They have a wide variety of selection, and quick, fantastic service (minus grumpus).
