We ended up getting dinner here after finding that most Bay City restaurants were closed on Sundays in the winter. What a surprise! Food was some of the best of our trip- we had the avocado tacos, the reuben, and a burger and everything was delicious. It’s now on our ‘Must eat here again’ list for the next time we visit.

New menu since the last time we were there. So disappointed that they eliminated the pizza egg rolls. They were the bomb! Instead, we ordered the cheese curds with ranch and marinara. They were really good and you get a bowl full which could have been shared by 4 people. We had the popcorn which is so good! My husband ordered his usual Ben's mixed tape drink which was good as always and I tried the key lime mule which was so good! I ordered the chicken Alfredo for an entree and my husband ordered the Tavern 101 burger. Both were good as usual. We were stuffed!

Sorry to say but it was really bad. They are out of so many items on their menu but you don't know that til you sit down and view their online only menu.
Ordered queso and chips and it came out without any pico. I asked where it was and she said they were out. I suggested she substitute for any salsa which she did (but the kitchen couldn't have thought of that?)
Ordered salad-basically a big plate of lettuce with slimy bottled dressings. Added avocado to one salad and it came as deep fried nuggets. Yuck!
Wasted time, wasted money.

We found this place while in Bay City for a business trip. We were looking for a shady outdoor spot for an early dinner. They have a decent size patio with very big umbrellas, so there was plenty of shade for the 5 of us. The outdoor chairs are very uncomfortable and plus sized patrons may have an especially difficult time with them. I had to sit on the front edge of the seat to avoid the metal bars from digging into my sides. Anyway, we had a decent dinner. The server was friendly but things took quite awhile and she forgot to come back with something we requested. But they were busy and we are

Outdoor and indoor dining, good location, very good fries and popcorn but our sandwiches were below average. They seem to make their own sauces and they aren't very good. The burger was over cooked and
Server was very nice but nit real attentive. I think it would be a good place for drinks & apps but we were there for lunch.

We were in for a small snack and a few drinks. Our waiter was awesome but We were not impressed with the 4 different drinks we tried. It had a cool vibe would hangout there again because of the snack we ate, Waffle Fries Nachos. Supper good with a lot of flavor. This part of BC is awesome for bar hopping.

Great food great service. Our server Autumn/Amber? (Sorry we forgot!) was WONDERFUL! (We visited 4/29/21). Very attentive and courteous. We came in with 3 and a half of us (baby made the 1/2). She got us a high chair and flipped it upside down right away for us for our girls carrier.
Excellent attentiveness , got us drinks (even a sample to try first of a great beer) and checked to make sure the QR code menus worked on our phones right away. Got us hot water right away too (needed some to make the baby a bottle.. BONUS POINTS! Seriously above and beyond server!).

We chose a bar stool and eric was phenomenal. Chose a new ipa for me crescent fresh-ellison. Love the tablets for all items available in house including pictures and description of choice
Highly recommend oven roasted pull pork. See pix. The pot roast gill cheese was a bit dry.
Definite pit stop on the way to the U.p.

We walked over from the DoubleTree for dinner and some beers and we were not disappointed! The place is nice- cool colors and modern looking with an excellent rotating beer selection. The menu was a little reduced for trivia night, but we had no issue finding some stuff that we were definitely into.
Our server was knowledgeable about the drinks, making recommendations that were well appreciated. (one day I'll be up for trying the ghost pepper cider, but today was not that day)

Good bar food.
their popcorn is a ranch seasoned popcorn and it is really fantastic.
Share the green pig sandwich and it was really fantastic. Also shared the fried chicken and pepper jack sandwich it was very good as well.
My daughter had the Hawaiian flatbread and loved it. My wife had the brunch burger and said it was perfect.
The beer selection here is always fantastic great place to come for a quick meal.
