    Bacon tripple cheeseburger
    Dave W.

    A great burger, very flavorful and cooked to perfection. The fries were also excellent. Service was also great. These are the ideal places to seek out in northern Michigan.

    Large pretzel with beer cheese.

    Great small town bar and grill. Friendly bar staff. Lots of local regulars. We had beer and their large pretzel with beer cheese. Good tap selection. Their pretzel are homemade and they are AWESOME! It was so good and such a pleasant surprise that we ordered another which was just as good. They also give you a generous cup of cheese. Yum! We weren't super hungry or we would have tried more off their menu. Everything being served looked delicious. The prices are super reasonable too. This is our go to stop whenever we are in Lio.

    Monte cristo and onion rings.  Monte cristo is made from scratch, 4 out of 5 stars!

    What was the last thing I expected from a dive bar in the middle of Huron NF? A made from scratch monte cristo sandwich!! They also have craft beers on draft. Don't let the looks inside and out, deter you!! Typical grease bar food, with a few surprises.

    I stopped by Back Door Saloon in Michigan and tried the Crab Rangoon Egg Rolls with Sweet Thai…read moreChili Sauce... and WOW! They were so filling that I almost ordered another round, but honestly, one order was more than enough. I even took two home in a doggy bag and ate them cold later without reheating or even dipping them in the sauce and they were still absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is amazing. There's a beautiful view, a patio, a rooftop, and TVs everywhere on the main floor, so you won't miss a second of the game. Whether you're there to catch sports, enjoy the scenery, or just have a great meal, they've got you covered. The service was friendly, fast, and the restaurant was clean. The staff works hard, so don't forget to tip! Everyone was so welcoming, and the food was delicious at a great price. I seen a Mac n cheese bowl topped with brisket omg sooooo good Pro tip: Check them out on Taco Tuesday! And one thing I really loved it's kid-friendly! I saw families with kids enjoying themselves while others were watching the game and friends were high-fiving over a beer. It truly has that welcoming, family atmosphere that makes you want to come back. I'll definitely be visiting again!

The second time, I got a chicken cesar salad. The dressing was terrible- watery and an odd taste, and the chicken tasted like the premade kind in a bag. If I was in the area again, I'd definitely go back, but I'll stick with "bar food." Both nights, service was quick, and the person was friendly. Ambience is sports bar and clean. Drinks are good, but the beer selection was lacking.

The fat was as white as paper. The meat cold to the touch. I asked the waitress to have it warmed. When it returned it looked much better and was the right temperature and appearance. However, it was terrible. The meat tasted old and had a tinny taste to it. My wife absolutely enjoyed her chicken dish and we enjoyed out meal with friends. When I paid the bill I let the waitress know that the prime rib didn't improve and was terrible. She apologized and gave a small discount on the bill. Unfortunately, this is the second bad prime rib I have gotten at the Fox Den. I am not picky and just want consistency in a restaurant. For over $30 you have a consistent product or don't offer that item. Since you advertise it as a restaurant specialty you should really stand behind the quality a little better. Maybe offer to replace it with a fresh cut. Overall, I am sure we will go there again, just not as often. PS I commented on one of their ads on Facebook and they deleted by comment without a response. Mistakes are made, own it and improve on it.

    I visited this place about a year ago on a whim. Went up to my friends cottage in Comins and…read morearrived a bit earlier than them. I was hungry and had time to kill so I figured I would stop in the only bar in town. I walked in wearing my business casual attire as I had left straight from work for this trip. Sure, I got the immediate record stop/skip, turnaround and stare from everyone, but that was expected; this is a small town, afterall. While I did get the staredown, I never felt uncomfortable as I sat by myself at the bar. Hell, even a couple patrons talked to me for a bit! This place had a surprisingly decent amount of craft beer on tap. I think I was drinking some sort of IPA from Rochester Mills or Griffin Claw. Beer was cold and priced very well. During my few days in Comins, I visited Knot Hole probably 4-5 times. While we all mostly drank up there, we did order some food. I personally had some sort of sandwich the first visit. Don't recall exactly what it was but it was pretty good! Another night I decided to order their hawaiian pizza since I heard it was different than any other. Well, it came out with maraschino cherries on it, along with the standard ham and pineapple. It was surprisingly delicious and even had a drunken friend say "it saved my life". At any rate, I am making my yearly trip back up here soon and am definitely stopping by again!
