    Bibimbap. Definitely worth the hype!
    Andrea R.

    Great ambiance, super friendly service and amazing food! The Bibimbap was very satisfying. Full, but not stuffed.

    Menu is varied!!

    First, the overall vibe is great!! Then, the food was equally great!! We had both soups, meatballs, and lettuce wraps. Everything was absolutely delicious. We met the owners and truly enjoyed their company and sharing.

    Cherry themed desert.

    Best restaurant in Northport and surrounding areas in Leelanau county. Brandon is an amazing host and Chef Josh is a super chef! You can expect to get high quality food that is healthy and tasty. Josh is a real chef, not a cook like many surrounding eateries. He always has a few "specials" that delight and surprise us. Can't say enough good things about this restaurant! Lettuce wraps are fun and healthy, and the walleye last night was just amazing! We were even treated to a desert so new, that it is not even named yet!

    Yard and Lake has the best food in Northport! The service was absolutely amazing. Eli and Brandon made us feel so welcomed. Chef Josh came out and chatted with us and talked about the specials. We can't wait to go back.

    A rainy day with the kids and we decided to go to the porcupine shop in town. There, they gave our kids a treasure map that lead to a small toy shop in the back of Yard and Lake. It was adorable and the kids loved it. After we went to the bar side and enjoyed the beautiful bar area and a wonderful spicy margarita and a mocktail. We will definitely be back, fun for everyone!

    New and cool bar and shop in Northport! Bartenders shaking up legit cocktails. My Blueberry Lavender Mojito was lovely, fresh, refreshing, and perfect. Lots to choose from, beer, cider, cocktails, mocktails and more. Light and airy with a couple garage window doors, opened up for beautiful weather days (like today), think California mid century modern meets beach lite. Breezy. The bar staff was wonderful. Helpful, attentive without hovering. Fun watching the main bartender shaking two cocktails at a time. Big spiggoted jar of cool water with slices of cucumbers and limes provided gratis, a very nice and thoughtful touch. Two outdoor seating areas, one with picnic tables by the amazing Taqueria Mosqueda food truck (OMG, Gorditas we're to die for!) and the other covered by a huge pergola strung with lights. The connected gift shop has some cool merch, t-shirts, swim shorts and jewelry, plus more. This place is going to be the hit of the summer! Can't wait to come back and just hang!

I started with their Seafood Chowder ($10) this is said to be loaded with Shrimp, Clams and Crab. I could identify these things individually, however taste wise it was excellent.  I definitely wished the cup of it had been bigger. Price seems a little steep for portion size, but no complaints taste wise. I then ordered their Fried Chicken ($19) this had Golden-Fried Breast, Drum and Thigh with Mashed Potato and asparagus. The chicken was excellent, well seasoned and crispy, but still juicy. The asparagus was cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were undercooked. A little harder then I prefer them to be, but edible and at least it was real potatoes. The service was great. Super cheerful and helpful. They accidentally put someone else order on my bill and they corrected it with cheer. Overall a couple minor issues, but still a solid 4 star review for me. Would I return? Absolutely!

    Food was good, service was quick, and the view was outstanding! We would have loved to sit on the…read morepatio overlooking the water, but it was hot and humid. We opted to sit indoors, but it was super warm. I don't know if we made a good choice. The server also took a long time to cash us out.

We had wanted to sit on the rooftop to enjoy the views but it wasn't opening until 4PM so we didn't get to experience that. The clam chowder was on special so I ordered that to start with some peel and eat shrimp, cold- you can get them hot or cold and they were perfectly done and the cocktail sauce wasn't so strong that it overpowered the shrimp which was appreciated. My husband and I shared the trout basket and they were very lightly breaded, not greasy at all and well seasoned. My son ordered a cheeseburger and raved about it so much that he told our waitress on the way out that it was 5-star worthy. Note: he orders burgers everywhere we go so I trust his judgement . It was cooked how he asked- medium rare- and was thick and juicy to top it off. If you're looking for a spot with friendly service and delicious food- it's a must try in Sutton's Bay.

First time we came here. We came to have a couple drinks and I remember the service was amazing this past weekend we went here and we brought our daughter for her birthday. She had the best time again. The food is still amazing. We'll be coming back as much as we can. I ordered the cod special and my daughter ordered the kids chicken and fries and the chicken was delicious. My fiancé ordered the burger and the cook on it was perfection again you can't go wrong with anything you order here. It's an amazing place. It's a must check out if you're in Sutton Bay.
