They have some picnic tables outside, inside is very limited, and as busy as they were, we got lucky. And they were busy! The line moved pretty fast, but with online orders, there was a bit of a wait. Their menu is short and focused. Panini sandwiches, wraps, salad, a soup of the day. I ordered The Millionaire Turkey. It was fantastic, maybe one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Real turkey, not lunch meat, the right sized slices, perfectly paired with just the right amount of garlic aioli and bacon jam. Served with chips and their equally good dill dip (is dill the ingredient of 2026 or just a TC thing?). While my sandwich deserves all the stars, my friends Caesar wrap, with added chicken, was a bit boring. It quickly fell apart. We also felt the soup, cheddar broccoli, was only fine. We were checked on by a woman who was either a manager or owner to make sure we were content. I will absolutely be returning for that sandwich!

We split a braised beef and a mushroom gnocchi and found them to be a wonderful balance. The braised beef was recommended from our table neighbors and did not disappoint.

"It wasn't what I was expecting but it's really good!" Was our theme for my sixth visit to Farm…read moreClub. The restaurant is as farm to table as it gets. Much of menu is grown on the working farm, or comes from the surrounding area of Leelanau. And the lettuce just tastes better. Farm to table also means the menu is ever changing. There are a couple of staples, kale ceasar, chicken torta, beans and broth, their farm board, and of course their home made corn nuts. While beans and broth is simple, our group loves it, homey and flavorful, with their perfect greens side salad. I have generally ordered whatever the fish dish offering is, and it's also been amazing. They also recently opened their market, a bit of an expanded market from the small shop inside the restaurant, as well as sandwiches and bakery items. They have a few small tables. The restaurant does not do reservations. It's usually warm when we visit (this year was an exception) so we don't mind the wait as the long yard is lovely, with seating and a drinks and snack counter.

Still my favorite local dinner spot whenever I am visiting the area! I went twice this year with…read morepositive experiences dining at the bar. My first time this year I had an excellent experience, with the beet salad, zucchini fritters, seasonal pasta, and chocolate mousse. Everything was delicious! The last time was not my favorite - I didn't love the risotto or seasonal toast this time, and the last of my sides arrived well after my meal was finished. Unfortunately the shop was also out of my favorite Kari Kari chili garlic crunch I usually stock up on here - hoping they will have it next time! Still a must try in the area, and I can't wait for my next visit.

Super cozy inside, I feel like I'm at home. The store has everything anyone needs; fresh meat & cheeses, olives, spices, pizza flour, dough, cookies, wine, desserts, take and bake pizzas, lasagna, pot pies, and so much more. We ordered one of the many delicious sandwiches on the menu. I chose the Chimp Boy Gravel Pants. Roasted turkey, sundried tomatoes, pesto, blue cheese, provolone, Italian dressing, stuffed in a ciabatta sub- AMAZING. That will be forever in my heart. Made with love. I wish I could've wrapped that shop up, put it in my pocket and brought it back to my hometown. I will definitely stop there each and every time I visit TC!

We bellied up to the bar and the tender was full of fresh energy. Very personable and made us feel excited to be there. We started with bloody Mary's and they were great! Also had a few on tap beers and a really good, not overly stuffed eggs and bacon breakfast. Perfect sized serving. Whole place just has a very good vibe and it starts your day off in a positive way. Would highly recommend this spot as it seems they have really set it up in one of the most perfect ways. My only gripe is the parking lot is a bit small, can be tough to park larger vehicles at prime time.

We got: -crab cake, slightly over-breaded and a little dry -mussels, pretty good! -steak frites, steak was good, fries were fine -wedge salad with steak, steak was wildly overcooked and barely edible (which is weird because the steak in the other dish was cooked perfectly), salad was fine just a normal wedge -partly cloudy NA cocktail, good! -lemonade, just okay The service was great, the restaurant was busy and the vibes were good which is why I debated giving a 4. It seems like a lot of locals like this place so it feels like it might be a popular spot and have quality food compared to other restaurants in TC.

Anyway, I came at the end of exploring and a long day. I enjoyed seeing the fresh options and how I could have a salad created. They also had a lot of grab-and-go foods. My salad was pretty good and was straight forward. I thought it was almost a full win, but my spouse got a salad and a small cup of soup. Salad great. Soup, not so much. Again with the salt! Also, it wasn't a soup and was suuuuuper thick, almost like a chili or stew. I'd come back and try more, especially the fresh options! Thanks for having something green for me to eat.
