Our server Lisa was so warm and friendly (as if she was your mother) and took great care of us! Got the parmesan topped whitefish with creamy mushroom soup and coleslaw. The mushroom soup was creamy and hearty. I liked the coleslaw - just the right amount of sweet and sour for me. I enjoyed the fish very much. We would have gotten some desserts but we were so full. We did see that the cheesecake slices were huge! Would definitely recommend this place!

To place a carry out order, you must come inside and sit down at a table, then tell your server that you want to place a to go order. Lisa was helpful, told me the order would be out pretty quickly, and she brought me a glass of water for while I waited. I ordered the mackinaw burger with onion rings, and hot ham and cheese with fries. I also ordered a coconut cream pie and a Dutch cherry pie slice. All of this was to go, and she packed it up and brought me carry-bags for it. The coconut cream pie was good. The Dutch cherry was ok but, I have had better. The French fries were good--crispy and lightly seasoned. The onion rings were large and hot/fresh, but they are battered (I prefer breaded), and they are pretty greasy. The burger was nice sized and cooked well done, which I like. It came with cheese, lots of pickles, relish, lots of mustard, and just a little ketchup. The hot ham and cheese was okay. I chose white bread rather than rye or wheat. The bread was not special--seemed like white bread you'd buy at any grocery in a plastic wrapper. There's an up-charge for the onion rings. I say skip that and get the fries. For the 2 sandwiches, 1 with fries, one with onion rings, and 2 pieces of pie, my bill was $51.36 before any tip added on. I get that it's a short season up north here, so I expect everything to be a little pricey. If the burger had a bit of char and came on an upscale bun, if the hot ham and cheese came on a thicker toasted bread, I'd say ok. But for what we got, it was overpriced.

Well lit with kitschy decor-a mix of colorful murals and teapots (teapots are for sale), and other items, like puzzles and cute boxes. Uneven floors add to its charm. Menus are cute newspapers, with "articles" about the place and area in case you're interested. Nice coffee options, like espresso, cappuccino, and lattes, though we elected to have just regular coffee. Served hot with free refills, and choice of half & half or flavored creamers on the table. I ordered the biscuits & gravy with eggs and hash browns, while my husband ordered the lobster Benedict. Food came out relatively quickly and we were both pretty happy with our orders. We ordered extra crispy hash browns and they were the only item that fell short, not being really extra crispy. But they were good enough considering how good the rest of the food was. Our sever came by several times to check on us and give us coffee warm ups. Really just a great experience overall. Sometimes tourist town restaurants miss the mark, but Java Joe's isn't one of those. We loved it and are looking forward to coming back!

While there is covered outdoor seating, the interior, which is mainly a massive wrap around bar, is where you get all the color of the area. It seems like this little place, in a little town, in the UP, would just have the basics, but you'd be so wrong. Great Michigan microbrews on tap, like Black Rock's and Petoskey Brewing, amazingly fresh fish menu options, with my fav homemade tartar sauce on the planet (everything made in-house they tell me), and the friendliest staff, this place is a huge winner in my book. Burgers if you want, poutine, and other items, if fish isn't your thing. The fries are not crispy, though the fried fish dishes are, just fyi. Two big screen TVs if you want to watch a game. Rock from the 70s and 80s in the background (not so loud you can't talk, thank you). Food arrives on real plates with real, non-plastic flatware. Even have free WiFi, which is essential up here. Finally, the view of the marina, lake, and islands is something special. So worth the trip over the bridge. One of our favorite UP destinations. Cheers!

Once you start seeing the British Landing signs, you know that you are close to a treat and food refuel. This area on your stop is worth it. There is a small nature area that has bathrooms indoor. Nice views of the water and areas of history to read about. Ton of places to park your bike. Cannonball serves class American comfort foods such as fries, hamburgers, pretzels, corndogs, ice cream, and even fried pickles. My go-to is a corndog and fried pickles - biking 8 miles works up an appetite. Always been happy with my food. There is an order window to the right and pick-up window to the left. Staff are friendly and helpful. The time of waiting in line to getting food is efficient. Is it a little pricey? Of course, again, it is the only place to get food on that side of the Island. To the left and right of the Cannonball has a ton of picnic benches. Must-stop on your journey!
