Tasted as fresh as if the chef fished them out of the water only an hour earlier. I'm from Florida and fussy about my fish tacos. I rate these as excellent. The meal wasn't as pricey as anticipated for the ambiance and view and food. On a separate note, we were visiting the lighthouse and asked about the restaurant and the woman at the gift shop recommended it and said the thing that she liked about the restaurant the best was every single item on the menu featured something from Michigan. Love local cuisine! Definitely would eat here again next time we are in town!

I've been there a few times now and what I observe is people eating not people enjoying a unique tasty meal with water views. I saw people eat and leave quickly without really enjoying their meal. Based on our meals, what I saw coming out of the kitchen and how fast it came out, Freighters must be serving a lot of frozen product, basically pub food. The cheese curds were the saddest, greasiest one I ever had (they were squares not curds) and hit the trash when we got home. Service was good. Not sure what the answer is. Perhaps it is just the taste of the people in the area...they like what they like. The Entrees on the menu were somewhat diverse and it looks like they are trying to upscale a little. We vacation to the thumb area often and finding good dining even good pub dining is very challenging.

He finished his entire meal so I guess he liked it.

We got them deconstructed since I don't like tajin and hubby does. The tomato sauce that came with them was also good. I ordered the chicken fingers and they were just ok. It was a lot of dark meat and a lot of breading and some weird spots. The fries were good. Husband said his burger was just ok and a little overcooked. Overall we enjoyed our experience.

The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was good for sitting at the bar as a solo traveler. However, I did notice the place was massive and had plenty of seating.

This is now on my list of places to go when I am back in the area.

I never knew what that meant until we went in and I read the back of the menu. My wife said people recommended this place on the state park camping fb page. So we finally tried. First off I'm not a big chicken fan but I think I will declare this the best chicken on the bone I have ever eaten. The "Chicken in the Rough" dinner is outstanding. It had a great flavor. I had the Traditional Dinner. It was a half chicken with fries & coleslaw & a dinner roll. I loved it all but didn't try the slaw I'm not a fan of that stuff. She had Chicken Tenders & Waffles with Honey & Pecan syrup on the side. I tried a bite of tenders it was very good but didn't have the same coating as mine so not AS good. I didn't try the Waffles but she said they were good. I would definitely get that Traditional Dinner again. I unfortunately didn't think to take a picture of our meals. Lots of food for both of us. Only downside I'd say is Pepsi products. There is a full bar though, but it was lunch so we resisted. The place says established 1936 it definitely had an old timey feel. I would guess 50's or 60's style but I wasn't around then so I'm just guessing what they were like. As always for Brian if he's still reading mine.... The napkin were two decent dinner napkins wrapped around our silverware, then a stack of cheapo diner napkins like you would have in a chrome dispenser on the table of a greasy spoon diner. I definitely was glad there was a lot of them, they knew I would need them. Don't hesitate to stop in I would recommend it for sure.
