Stopped in for a drink and bite with my Asian/American GF while traveling, was around the time things started to reopen from COVID. Place had a few customers but not at all busy, grabbed 2 seats at bar sat for 20 minutes completely ignored with no acknowledgement, or even eye contact. Bartender by name of Rodney complete with his Confederate Flag ball cap was present behind bar entire time, chit chatting and serving other customers while blatantly ignoring us. After that length of time being ignored and giving benefit of doubt, we realized what we felt might be happening was really happening, and left. Zero Stars

I'd been here once a number of years ago, at which time this place was truly a dive. Walls were…read morecovered in very well-worn carpet, the place was almost too dim to see in (in the afternoon), the beer selection was very poor. I think I had a Blatz. I didn't order food--I could do just as well eating something off the sidewalk, I thought. Inspired by the good reviews here, I went back this week. What a change! New wood paneling on the walls, a very clean atmosphere overall with lots of natural light. And good craft beers. I ordered the chicken-bacon-ranch salad and was impressed. Lettuce was fresh and finely cut, meat was tender and generously portioned, with enough bacon to provide an accent but not dominate the salad. Salads at small bar-and-grill operations are sometimes a dicey bet, but Mio Saloon nailed it. Don't get me wrong--this place hasn't been yuppified. It's still a down to earth small town bar catering to a biker clientele. It also seems to be a spot where locals just meet to have lunch and chat, dragging the kids along. The vibe might be different at night. I get up to Mio a few times a year, and I plan to find out next time I do.

This is where you go when you are in the area. The current owners have made some updates and changes these past few years and all for the better. They even have their own named micro-brewed beer on tap. You gotta love a bar with knotty pine walls, cold PBR in cans, Kessler's behind the bar, and an ample supply of Cajun picked eggs for the late night snack.

Paddle Hard Brewing is our new go-to spot for lunch on the way up north!…read more The restaurant interior is funky, cozy, and inviting; and the staff and bartenders are always friendly and knowledgeable about the food and beer selection. If you don't drink beer, they also have ciders and spirits so everyone's happy! The menu is perfect for a brewery, and I especially love the Pizza/Panini section. Each item can be ordered as a flatbread pizza or a pressed panini sandwich. My favorite is the "Tro-Pork-Al," which is pulled pork, tangy BBQ sauce, pineapple, and bacon-- unbelievably delicious with melty cheese holding it all together :) Restrooms are clean, food is consistent, and we've never had to wait for a table. I can't wait to stop in again for some yummy road trip grindage! If you find yourself passing through Grayling, don't forget to pop in for a sandwich and a beer- you won't be sorry!

Excellent brewery/restaurant in Grayling…read more I've eaten here twice in a seven year span and the beer, food, and service are still great. Latest visit was last week and we were going to arrive right around kitchen closing (9:30pm). Called in an order and they held it for us/let us eat inside and grab beers. Appreciated that greatly after a long drive. A handful of plant based options like tacos, bowls, and pita sandwiches. I ordered tacos and the pita and both were yummy. Beers are solid and they have other breweries too. Plus cider. The seating options are plentiful (long bar, small and large tables). They can accommodate large groups. The decor is cool inside too. Will absolutely keep coming here when I find myself up north.

The place is old but seems clean. There is a full bar not that I'm drinking yet. We had the waiter take our order and someone else brought condiments which are dirty and the onion in the dish looked old and taken off a sandwich. There are several workers here or visitors not sure but they are around. I ordered a philly sandwich which was very salty it did have the green peppers with it but no onions. It came with staled chips. Very disappointed. My husband ordered a cheeseburger. He said it was ok. I cant even see giving it a second chance which many times I give to a restaurant.

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted like you belong there, whether it's your first time or your hundredth. The staff is genuinely kind and attentive, and you can tell they care about the people who come through the door. The drinks are strong, the prices are fair, and the atmosphere is exactly what you want after a long day--laid-back, unpretentious, and full of good conversation. It's the kind of place where you can catch up with friends, meet new people, or just sit back and relax without any pressure. There's something special about a bar that feels like the heart of a community, and this is definitely one of those places. It's not trying to be trendy or flashy--it's just real, and that's what makes it so great. Highly recommend if you're looking for a genuine, feel-good spot.
