But plenty of seating, TVs with the olympics and room for snowmobilers to leave their helmets. Our waitress was very friendly, quickly greeting us and taking out drink order. My husband got a bush light and I got a diet coke. We asked what was good, she told us they were known for their burgers but recommended the specials so that what we ordered! My husband got the steak tips and mashed potatoes with a side salad - it was sooooo good and had great flavor. I ordered the philly sandwich with fries Let me tell you... It was one of the best philly steak sandwiches I have had, it was the perfect combo of peppers, steak, cheese, sauce and bun. Highly recommend. Key tip - always ask your server what they recommend!

There was one server but she was very attentive. The perch is the best thing we ordered. The fish was excellent and hot and crispy. Honestly, the best fish I've had in the UP. I wish they had homemade tartar sauce. But that is okay. The wings were just okay. Very hot but overly breaded. The fries were hot and crispy. The burger was hand formed and cooked well. I would go back and just get the perch though. This is a great place to grab a quick bite, just be prepared for very loud music.

Our server Tiffany was doing double duty as bartender and didn't miss a beat serving us and several other customers there. She was very pleasant and offered advice on the menu.

The service was great. The food was terrible…read more I ordered a spinach and artichoke dip and it was closer to creamed spinach. We asked to send it back. The waitress looked at me suspiciously and said "Well what's wrong with it?" I told her it was mostly the texture and it didn't really taste like spinach and artichoke dip. She said she would ask the owner. He said no. I don't believe the customer is always right but in this case, we weren't wrong. The dip is terrible. So understand, you're going to buy terrible food and it will not be taken back. Side note: The rest of the food wasn't good either but i was hungry enough to get half of my sandwich down. It wasn't good but it wasn't as bad as the dip.

It was a Thursday and I was in town (Live 64 miles from Petoskey) for a Doc appointment and a bit…read moreof shopping. I had done a bit of research the day before .. looking for restaurants in the area. When I noticed that the Side Door had Prime Rib on special, (Wed-Sat) the decision was made. DISCLAIMER: I had eaten at the Side Door a few years ago (Cilantro Lime Shrimp W/Pasta) Me and my neighbor arrived at about 4:45PM, and were greeted with a warm smile and seated immediately ... we were kinda early for the dinner rush so there was plenty of available seating. (NOTE: When we departed about an hour after we arrived, the place was FULL and a line was forming for a table.) We both ordered the 14oz Black Angus Prime Rib (10oz also available). About the same time that we finished the first beer, dinner was served! Simply one of ... if not Thee best, PR that I have had in several years, across 11 states. My neighbor agreed. Both of us now try to plan our Petoskey trips to coincide with dinner at the Door My ONLY complaint is that the horseradish was weak. Actually, it seemed that it had been washed into submission .. totally without any flavor or "bite". The rest of the meal made up for it. (But I *will* bring some nose-incinerating, sinus-creating horseradish from home on the next planned trip.) Service: Superb. We never had to ask for anything. Drinks were refilled with perfect timing. And always smiling. She is an asset to the establishment. Driving Suggestion: Depending on the season and the time of day, if arriving from the North, it can be nearly impossible to make the left turn into the Side Door. Suggestion: Turn Right into the strip mall (KFC, AT&T, etc) and use the traffic light near the gas station to turn left, back onto the highway then a right into the Side Door Saloon for some of the best dining in the Petoskey area. Ample Parking is available. YMMV

The lighting is good and the overall atmosphere was chill. Music played in the background and didn't interfere with conversation. 20 beers on tap. A huge bar. A pool table. All kinds of fun to be had! So, let's talk food. A simple front and back menu loaded with goodies. Two different Rueben appetizers speak to the passion of an Irish Pub. It's in the Sault, however, and the fish is the real steal of the show. I judge that everything on this menu is made with care and comes out delicious. The perch are deep fried, light and tender. Their "famous" questo tastes a lot like grandma's rotel and is absolutely delicious. Beers, Bloody Mary's, Fish, Irish fare, burgers, quality service, and plenty of seating make this place a worthy stop for nearly every audience. Come on in and you won't be disappointed.
