This is the finest place for breakfast In Petoskey. The service is top notch friendly and speedy. Every time I eat here the order is cooked to perfection. Make sure and try the biscuits with honey. Yummy! read more

Ryan made an exception to his rule of not taking reservations over the phone and accommodated our large family and we're so glad he did! Traveling from out of town we were surprised our breakfast options seemed limited so we were relieved to find this restaurant and be treated as well as we were. I had the jalapeño chicken popper sandwich and it was good the pretzel bun was the best part and their fries are good the ranch dressing is awesome. Give this place a try! read more

Everything is sooooo delicious! We got the vegetable hash, the corned beef hash, and the quinoa-- I'd recommend any of it. By far the best corned beef ive ever had. 10/10 would recommend Bayside. read more

The food was just so so. Had the Cali Rueben. Lots of brown pieces in the cabbage. Soggy pickle. The potato, bacon & leek soup was not good. But the tomato basil soup was tasty. The service was good. Very nice and efficient waitress. Update: After going back and giving them a try for breakfast, I'd definitely go back for breakfast. The biscuits and gravy were delicious. read more

See all

Absolutely delicious!!! Portions were huge and service was great!! Definitely a great brunch spot and will keep you full for awhile. Plenty of variety and tasty food. read more

Great place to have breakfast and lunch. Friendly servers and a nice atmosphere. We've tried many different breakfast and lunch items. Some of our favorites are the French Dip/Philly sandwich, Parm crusted grilled cheese, club sandwich and French toast. We always look forward to eating at Bayside. read more

Underwhelming, won't stop in again. Asked and were told the hashbrowns were not typically extra crispy, to our pleasure...but upon arrival were extra crispy and swimming in oil. Hollandaise was flavorless. read more

Amazing breakfast and lunch! We stopped by before heading into Petoskey and highly recommend this place if you don't want a huge crowd/wait. The staff was local and friendly, glad we could support a small business. read more

My husband & I were on vacation and when looking for a breakfast place, we found Bayside. We had prime rib hash & bay harbor breakfast & coffee. Everything was excellent. We asked the server which coffee it was, so she gave us the name of coffee company so we could order it online (not Starbucks). The bacon was cooked perfectly; no chewy parts. The bathrooms are clean, smelled nice, and pretty. Our server provided great service & was very nice, in fact, everyone was super nice. Would recommend. read more

I paid $17 for a mediocre chicken wrap withr over seasoned French fries. There were only 2 other tables in the restaurant and I couldn't even get my drink refilled. The best restaurants in town don't even charge those prices and are levels above...top that with the poor service and is a joke. You are better off going to subway!!! read more

Solid stop for breakfast right across from crooked tree golf club. Good service, good breakfast quality.

Fantastic food!!! Very friendly servers. The toast was amazing. Our entire group was very happy with their orders. Will be back next year!

Friendly waitstaff and a great breakfast at a reasonable price! You should definitely check it out if you are in the area.

Great food even better service! We had a great experience at this place when we came for breakfast, food exceeded our expectations but the service was amazing, friendly and attentive staff. Sidney was our server and she made sure we had a great experience. Definitely recommend if you ever come to Petoskey read more

Great Breakfast spot...made to order omelette was delicious as well as the veggie frittata. Shared a lumberjack pancake for something sweet, that was very good too. Our server Sydney very pleasant & attentive always keeping our coffee cups full. This was our first visit we will definitely be back to try other options. The lunch options look good as well. Thanks for a nice breakfast experience look forward to our next visit! read more

We ate here twice during our stay in Petoskey. The atmosphere is clean, bright, spacious but cozy. The menu is simple but the food is great with enough variety to please but not overwhelm. The wait-staff was quick, thoughtful and smilingly efficient. read more

Disappointing. We were happy to have a low key option in a resort area of town but the food was just ok. Corned beef hash was flavorful but corned beef was not well trimmed and fatty. At $10.98 it did not include toast and I was charged an additional.79 for one slice of barely toasted bread...which waiter forgot to order and came out halfway through breakfast. Friend has pulled pork that stayed with her all day. Waiter also forgot to order her fries and those also came out halfway through meal. All in all we dropped $35 on two less than great meals. read more

Fantastic service. These people know how to run a restaurant. Food was delicious. Had the smoked whitefish Benedict and the veggie hash. Both were great. Definitely plan to come back. read more

Friendly staff & excellent food. We went for breakfast 2 days in a row because it was so tasty. In a small shopping center near Bay Harbor so keep your eyes open when you're driving so you don't zoom past it. read more

Great breakfast and lunch. Good service, the wait wasn't too long, the server was professional and personable and the food didn't disappoint. read more

Rainy morning walked in and slightly strong coffee was just what was needed. Ordered the veggie frittata and the prime rib hash. The food was delicious, what isn't with goat cheese! Hash browns crispy just the way hey should be. Definitely new spot on our go to list! read more

Wonderful breakfast! Amazing service, food and atmosphere! Great waffles! Our server was on top of it and had us very satisfied with getting our hungry crew fed. read more

This is absolutely my favorite restaurant in the Petoskey-Harbor Springs area. Super friendly staff, very clean restaurant and plenty of food. Something on the menu for everyone to eat. read more

Bayside Restaurant - The bay Burger is worth getting and the curry dipping sauce for the French fries is the bomb. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Petoskey, Michigan

Giving this resturant a 1 is over rating it. This place is a total 0. Showed up to the restaurant with a party of 9. The hostess put our name on the list, 2nd one from the top. Sat the people above us, sat the people below us. The second group below us, a party of 9, got seated, we talked to the hostess, she said we have you on the list. Waited a little longer and the hostess sat a party of 10. I went in and asked her why we were not seated, and asked for the manager. While she was getting the manager I looked at the list and sure enough we were not scratched off and all those parties were sat down before us. Recommend not going here if you have a big party. They have trouble keeping track of the order on the list. read more

Great food, friendly staff, family feel. Four of us had lunch there. Two breakfast entrees, corned beef hash and breakfast burrito. Both outstanding. Two had lunches, a wrap and a hot sandwich. Two thumbs up from them too. Friendly server (Halle?) checked in frequently and filled drinks. Highly recommend! read more

Only gave this restaurant a three star because there's always room for improvement I would suggest bringing your wallet and spending a little bit more of the markup at this place. Food was really good though and the ambience was really nice and clean. Even though it is placed inside a shopping mall and it has a very small footprint I will definitely come back but expect the food portions to be at bare minimum for a little bit more price value. read more

What a great little breakfast spot! Erica was great even though the coffee pot was broken and SLOWLY brewing my decaf! I couldn't decide between the corn beef hash and the traditional eggs Benedict so told Erica to surprise me...she blended the two by giving me the hash with two poached eggs and hollandaise...so creative and pure heaven! My wife had traditional breakfast and the fresh hash browns were perfect! The owner Ryan can really work the grill! read more

We have enjoyed the best breakfasts here the last two days while vacationing. The smoked whitefish frittata is incredibly delicious. Service is outstanding. This place is a gem. read more

A Great Make You Feel Like Family When You Arrive Sydney Always w a Smile The Wait Staff and Food is Awesome Cozy Place That Cares Would recommend Par Above The Old Pancake House in Bay Harbor Village! Thanks! Posted from a Local! We know Best! Thx Again Sydney! Jimmy From Florida! No Hurricane read more

Thoroughly enjoyed the Whitefish Benedict! The service was great and our host was more than accommodating. Highly recommend a visit.

Rudest hostess ive ever experienced. Was seating other people ahead of us and when we asked what was going on she simply glared at us and rolled her eyes and said absolutely nothing. They told us it was a 35 minute wait and 40 minutes later we went in to ask how much longer and they said 35 more minutes and didnt even apologize. read more

Service was terrible. Sat outside for 35 minutes with tables ready inside, and they take other parties before you. Ridiculous and don't recommend read more

Perfect eggs Benedict with their own hollandaise sauce. I would come here again! Very pleasant atmosphere.

What a great breakfast! Cute interior with fireplace, wood floors, and beautiful counter. Friendly staff and wonderful food. Breakfast burrito was delicious and so filling, took half home. My husband had the whitefish frittata which he very much enjoyed. My son had kids pancake and a side of sausage. The sausage patties were fantastic. We took a menu home, you can order anything for carry out. Location is great for us and we look forward to frequently visiting for breakfast. read more

This place is so good and the waitresses are adorable and beyond sweet (the owner should be very proud of these young ladies). Big portions and great food. Their waffles are awesome. And the French dip (i think they call it something else) but it has au ju and its amazing. My husband and I usually split it with a side of delicious fries!! Go support this local business doing it right!! read more

I have to join the group of satisfied customers. Breakfast was amazing. I felt like the chef loves what their doing, refreshing! A must visit. read more

Absolutely the best Breakfast I've had in the Petoskey area. Ordered the Greek Omelet and it was superb along with a great cup of coffee. Friendly staff and great customer service. This is an untapped diamond and Highly Recommend. For the great quality served the prices are excellent. read more

I'm not sure how this place has the good reviews that it does. I don't like leaving negative reviews, but we ordered the white fish frittata and the prime rib omelette and could barely choke it down. In fact, we had to ask for ketchup to make it tolerable. It would be a skip for us in the future... read more

I was excited to try the new breakfast restaurant in town just to be disappointed. I ordered biscuits and gravy, my husband the breakfast burrito. Other tables were seated after us, yet most of them got their food first. When the food was ready to be delivered, our waitress delivered our plates to a table that was getting ready to leave. Then brought them to us. She never asked how we were doing or if we needed anything else. Typically breakfast burritos come with salsa, not so with this place. We requested salsa, three times, along with our bill and we had to ask a fourth time for our bill. My biscuits were delicious, but the gravy was disgusting. They use maple sausage and it ruins a savory dish. I will not return or recommend to family, friends or perfect strangers. The Bistro still has the best breakfast in Petoskey, Brutus Camp is the best in Northern Michigan. read more

This is becoming our go-to spot for breakfast on the weekends with its friendly staff and quick service. The farmer's omelette is always good and I think I have taken home a portion each time (good sized!). We have stopped in for lunch and I had the strawberry spinach salad with chicken. Delicious! read more
