Usually about half the time you think, that was just ok, or, I didn't really need it, or that was disappointing, yet that has never been the case here." Fast, friendly service and excellent options. My favorites are a simple scoop (every flavor is great that Ive tried!) and the freedom float. Go support this awesome local business!

They also have some wonderful combinations that make amazing desserts. Sitting in the tables watching kids play and cars go by I'd always nice and relaxing, especially when the kids get the truck to honk at them. My only criticism would be the short season, some of us fluffy people like our ice cream year around lol. It can be a little pricy but it beats the hell out of the other place down the road. Keep up the great work. Highly recommended.

In the evening we took a pontoon boat ride across the glass-like water to Dee's Diner where the main attraction is their ice creams - all sourced from a Michigan dairy. We each got single-scoops in various flavors (see pic) and my peanut butter chocolate was delicious. I just got the standard cake cone but they also offer waffle cones or bowls with spoon. Prices are very reasonable too (see pic). At 8pm on a Fri night, service was friendly and fast with only one other couple in line. There is plenty of car parking in the front lot right off Main St and, in back where we pulled up, the dock can hold about 4 boats with plenty of posts to tether up to. The slow ride back was extra memorable - savoring my cone in the middle of a dark, lake, starry sky.

The…read moreham and cheese pretzels rolls got me first, but their doughnuts, bear claws, and croissant cinnamon rolls are all so tasty. Recently (September 2024), bagels were added. It's hard to find a decent bagel, especially in rural areas, but the Asiago was top notch. They don't have a toaster or homemade cream cheese, but if I need something ready to go/eat in the car, I'd probably do the hot stuffed pretzel roll anyway. I wouldn't be shocked if the bagel was just fine without being toasted, either. They don't take Amex, so be ready for that, and if they run out of treats, they'll close early, so plan accordingly.

First time checking out Captain Joe's and overall was a good experience. Greeted quickly and warmly…read moreat the door and sat quickly. Sat outside and enjoyed the live music. The ambiance was not as fun as I would have expected but of course the crowd determines that. Took some time to get greeted, drinks, and (complimentary which is a nice touch) bread and butter. Good news bad news that because that took some time our dinners came out almost immediately afterward. The Michigan Salad was good but overpriced at $18 especially when that doesn't include chicken. Asked my husband if it was as good as the last one he had at a neighborhood grill and the answer was no. So 3 stars there. 3 stars also for the chicken picatta. Chicken piccata is my favorite dinner dish so I've had it at quite a few places. This one just didn't have much flavor. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the asparagus was great, but the piccata sauce just wasn't it. Neither were the mashed potatoes. Good portion and overall good dish, just doesn't compare in flavor to other restaurants. The owner (I assume) came by every time to ask how things were which is always very much appreciated. The live music was great, patio beautiful. Inside which we saw on our way out looked much livelier with sports on. We'll definitely go back and sit inside to enjoy a game! As we left we were thanked for coming by two different people at the door. It's always fantastic when this happens.....when you feel like your patronage is appreciated you'll go back again and again. :)

I got the pork tenderloin dinner which was served with mashed potatoes and green beans. My daughter got the Cajun Alfredo and was able to substitute regular grilled chicken to suit her palate. Everything was delicious and came out quickly. I will definitely come back again .
