The fresh fish, soups, sandwiches salads are something we look forward to at least twice a year or more when we can make it over the bridge. Parking is on the busy downtown strip right across from the Locks themselves and is also meter parking but do not let this discourage you. Wife without question gets the whitefish Reuben consistently as will I but the Walleye, Whitefish, Perch platter is hard to pass on. The food you receive the pricing is more than fair. My only concern I have had was the last time the men's bathroom desperately needed remodeling or something done to remove the order. I'm still 5 staring this all day and every day but the establishment is going to have to address sooner than later.

I had the Cajun whitefish with salad and sweet potato fries. The fish was a bit oily, would recommend ordering with a light oil but the sweet potato fries were spot on delicious. My daughter had a burger and fries which she thoroughly enjoyed, the fries were crunchy and salty on the outside and soft in the middle. Would definitely recommend stopping by to try some standard American fare.

If you like a sweet adult beverage, you'll love it here - give the bananas foster martini a go or their classic espresso martini. You can't miss with the rum runner as well. As for entrees, all varieties of white fish are delish as is the mushroom risotto and steak. If you can sit outside, the patio is lovely, but the dining room also has a great view of the water. Of course, you can't miss the gift shop with everything pink and sparkly you could dream of. **If you're coming during boat race week, be warned that all drinks here will be served in plastic.

They have a tractor tour during maple syrup season, which takes you around their property and they show you how they tap trees and collect all the syrup from all the maple trees on their property. There is a store with touristy stuff and I purchased maple sugar, maple butter and maple syrup!! Attached to the store is awesome restaurant that must have been designed by a structural genius, the beams are all visible and the design is impressive. Even more impressive than the design was the food!! I ordered pancakes, and they were HUGE, but very fluffy and yummy, available on the table was maple syrup, the real stuff! I would suggest only ordering one pancake as the size is the size of a large plate, I ordered two and I had a really hard time filling my tummy. We also ordered the maple beans, I should've asked before ordering but it isn't vegetarian there is pork in the beans.

The way she spoke to us and others was incredibly alarming. It was our first visit and unfortunately she ruined our experience.

Even though they seemed like the world is on fire they took time to check in on us. Problem was that once the food was dropped off(piping hot no less!) I simply didn't want to stop eating it as it was one of the best patty melts I've ever eaten. The chips were nicely seasoned, perfectly seasoned and delicious as well. Don't be afraid of the store layout inside as it's teeny tiny in there but seating was cozy once we got seated. This place has been around since 1954 slinging burgers... and it shows. Stop by and check them out if you're on the island. Thank me later.

I was afraid the pancakes and french toast would be super sweet, but they weren't. The pancakes were fluffy and not too sweet. The toppings were well incorporated and not over powering. The French toast was perfectly cooked and not too big. The whipped cream was delicious and not overly sweet. I was afraid the coffee would be mediocre, but it was perfect. I wish I lived here so I could try more of the menu! Our server, Audley, was polite, understood the menu, and timely. It was the best breakfast I have ever had, so I wanted to make sure the staff knew what a great time I had. I asked to speak to the manager. Yelp is fine, but I strongly believe in paying compliments directly to those in charge. The manager could not have been less interested in talking to me. A middle aged, medium height, average sized, medium blonde haired woman with large earrings, anxious eyes, and a false smile... she was quick to come over and quick to ignore me. She made minimal eye contact, turned her body away from me, and proceeded to pick up plates before I had finished my sentence. She turned her body away before I was done speaking. As soon as she felt I had spoken long enough, she left. It was a strange experience for an otherwise pleasant meal. If I lived closer, I'd likely choose somewhere else for future breakfasts. When management isn't interested in doing their job, service tends to follow. It's too bad. If only she had managed to stand still, face me, and listen... I might have given this a five star review.

We ordered a Cowboy Burger, a BLT Flatbread, and the Herb chicken pasta with pickle fries as an appetizer. The burger was delicious and cooked exactly the way I wanted. The flatbread was huge and delicious, especially for the $12 it cost. The herb chicken pasta was served with a roll and my girlfriend couldn't eat it all. The restaurant definitely has a rustic feel to it, and almost feels like a mom and pop place. Overall, the food is great, priced well, and conveniently placed across the street from the visitor center. I will definitely be back.
