If you thought beach towns didn't have good food, you're wrong! The girlies and I went to Douglas for the beach and discovered Saugatuck Brewing Company! They have a lot of seating and big tables for groups like us. For a pub, they actually have a lot of great menu items. I got a pulled pork burger and my friends got country fried chicken salad, olive burger, blackberry salad, oven baked mac and cheese, and chips and hummus. We got our food fast and our server was great. Thanks for having us and we'll be back! read more

My wife and I went to the Saugatuck brewing Company. I started off with a Magis Irish red nitro beer. It was a pleasant surprise being slightly Sweet with a touch of honey and a very mild aftertaste from being only slightly hopped. My wife had the citrus orange beer which was also very good. we both had the fish and chips which was excellent the beer batter was very light and crispy and the fish was very tender and flaky. We sat outside because it was a beautiful night and enjoyed the cool evening breeze. Our server Addie was absolutely perfect.If you're in Saugatuck you have to try this place read more

I had a fantastic experience at Saugatuck Brewing Company! This spot has it all: great beer, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere. Shout out to server Steve for the great recommendations! First, let's talk about the beer--absolutely top-notch. They have a wide selection of craft brews to choose from, and everything I tried was well-balanced and flavorful. Whether you're into IPAs, stouts, or something lighter, you'll find something to love. As for the food, the standout was the gyro I ordered. Paired with a crisp, cold beer, it hit the spot. The wings are smoked then fried and they're probably the best wings I've ever had! The ambiance is laid-back and cozy, perfect for hanging out with friends or just enjoying a quiet evening on your own. The staff were super friendly and made sure I had a great experience from start to finish. Overall, Saugatuck Brewing Company is a must-visit if you're in the area. Great beer, amazing food (seriously, get that gyro), and awesome vibes--what more could you want? read more

After we hit up the antique store next door we popped over to try the brewery. We were seated outside promptly by a friendly host. Our server was quick to check and was friendly. We shared a beer flight and enjoyed the Blood Orange the most. The app we had was the Smoked White Fish dip. It was excellent. It was not overly smoky and had a good consistency. The house made chips were crisp and the perfect vehicle for a dip. My wife enjoyed her chicken sandwich and my son enjoyed his tenders and fries. Both were cooked similarly with possibly being pickle brined and light,y breaded. I had the smoked wings which were excellent. The we're finished in fryer and seasoned well. No batter just crisp skin. Also these were not overly smoky. Definitely will come back again if we are near here. read more

Saugatuck Brewing Co - Smashburger with housemaid chips - Breweries Near Me - Douglas, Michigan

A couple need-to-knows: 1. They only have one brand of liquor, their own. Only their vodka, only their bourbon, etc. You can't order favorite brands for your drinks. 2. It's pricey. Pretty much every item you order is going to be around $12-15. My husband and I stopped a couple of weeks ago. I ordered the pretzel (appetizer) and a cranberry vodka (came in a tiny glass, inverted triangle shape). My husband ordered the chicken strips and a specialty drink they had. Two appetizers, two small drinks - bill $60 range. 3. Service is hit and miss. In the winter there's not always a lot of waitstaff (understandable), but even so they're not always very attentive. In the summer I've seen people get up and walk out because they waited and no one ever came to their table. Pro's: Food is good! I recommend the chicken shwarma sandwich. In the summer they have a frozen red sangria drink that's awesome! (Note: it sells out sometimes) Great patio - nice place to relax and have a drink and something to eat! Nice clientele, nice location. read more

Nice large space indoors and a sizable patio out front that is dog friendly. They always have solid beer offerings. I have always enjoyed the food here as well. Friendly staff. read more

Gotta say the side of Mexican corn salad was the best thing we had. We were seated outside by a friendly male host. The host them brought waters to the table and answered a quick question if we could mix tiers in a flight. I found the pilsner and the strawberry shandy both good. Ordered the nitro but they had switched it to blueberry lemonade shandy. Not my favorite. The peach shandy was not peachy. The black cherry was tart and reminded me of a Ludens throat drop. Pretzel and beer cheese were on point. Again don't skip the Mexican corn salad. read more

Update- drinks remain delicious and food is great too! Had a couple of interesting sandwiches with a fun variety of beers.

We had a party of 10, they were able to seat us right away but at 2 separate tables instead of just cleaning off another table for all of us. Oh well. The food was good, some great, others were just okay. The chicken was good. The kids Mac and cheese ($9) was enjoyed by kids but basically Kraft Mac and cheese. I tried the jalapeno grilled cheese wasn't as good as I hoped. Had a lot of empty bread bites. The tacos were great, definitely recommend them. The beers are great, I loved the blonde ale. read more

Place got packed fast on the 4th at noon. Smash burger and fries were very good and I'm not a big smash burger fan. The brews not so much. I had all the IPA's including the hazy's and I thought they were all very bland. Didn't offer that bite that a hazy normally does. They all tastes like pilsners. read more

Great selection of beer on tap, my favorite was the oval beach blonde. I got their Kung Pao fried chicken sandwich - an Asian twist on the Nashville fried chicken sandwich. The sauce was point! Kraft Mac and cheese for the picky kid. Will definitely visit again. read more

A simple little place with a simple little patio where you can get some pretty good bar food -- cheesey cheese curds, a nicely spicy Nashville hot chicken sandwich, a burger, kids meals, etc. The one weird thing is that I really disliked most of the beers, which I found variously too juicy, too bitter, etc. Your mileage may vary, and I'd rather see a local brewing company erring on the side of pushing things too hard so I don't want to complain too much, but for me the pretty good bar food and the simple little patio were the highlight. A perfectly fine place to go out if you're in the area, but maybe not your first or second priority. read more

The food was pretty good and the service was nice. We came in during lunch in a weekday and nobody was around. The place was quiet and nice. But looked like a fun place at night with other activités. Definitely have to go back and check it out. Wife and I both got burgers and they were tasty. Good beer selection too. read more

Overall very good experience. Food was delicious. We ordered the shawarma and pulled pork. The garlic sauce in the shawarma wrap was delicious and same with the mustard bbq sauce on the pulled pork. The only reason I'm hesitant to give 5 stars are the meals come with chips so we asked to upgrade to fries. Well on the bill we found they just changed us for two full sides of fries and an "upgrade" isn't available even though we had asked and were told yes. read more

After a big day of wandering around Fennville, my friends and I decided to stop by Saugatuck for a late lunch. We each ordered the different salads (caesar, country fried, and third coast) with chicken tenders on top. Their chicken tenders are some of my favs and it was the perfect little meal! We were very happy with our choice and the service was prompt and friendly. Parking was really easy and fairly convenient from the highway. I'd recommend going here if you want something that's a little out of the way from downtown but still decent pub food! read more

Always a good stop for lunch Nice selection of beers too My kids usually ask to go every time we r in Michigan read more

Nice spot that was easy for us to grab dinner at off the highway. The outside seating would've been the choice but the skies opened up and we dined inside. I didn't find anything remarkable, but it all hit the spot. Had a nice beer; they lean towards shandy style, fruit beers at least on our late summer visit. Got a turkey club with fries and it was loaded with turkey, definitely hit those protein goals by choosing this spot. For whatever reason, my girls didn't like their chicken tenders. One said they were spicy (no, they weren't) but I think it was just the black pepper? Either way, worth passing along their feedback from the kids menu just because they didn't touch them. Seems like a popular spot and it did the job for us when passing through. read more

After a fun day of antiquing at the Saugatuck Antique Pavilion me and my partner decided it was only right to try the brewery next door for some lunch. We came at a great time too since it wasn't busy at all. Our waiter was super friendly and helped us with some awesome suggestions since it was our first time there. We ordered the Perch Fish n' Chips, Pretzel, & Wings. Everything was phenomenal. The wings were super flavorful & juicy, and that was the best perch I ever tasted in my life. We also noticed they had a stage for live music so that will be cool to checkout next time we are there. read more

heading home we came across Saugatuck Brewing did a quick turn around so glad we did Parking is not a problem which is a bonus with indoor and outdoor seating you have your choice depending on the mood of the date. We choose to sit at the bar while a beer was picked out. The variety was excellent of course being in Michigan they had a blueberry based lager the hubby went with a stout to enjoy. While he savored the goodness of his beer the bartender gave us a brief history lesson all and all a great stop read more

Great food, beer and service. Definitely worth going there. I've learned that the patio is dog friendly when it's open in the summer. read more

VERY impressed with how Saugatuck Brewing handled the power outage. We went to eat early; our server explained (using a separate, off menu sheet) what was available. We appreciate SB for being so proactive. As we were eating, more and more patrons poured in to the dining room and (compliments to the kitchen) the staff kept up. We're not beer drinkers, so we tried the Cab. AWESOME choice. At first we didn't understand that SB made the cab...then we quickly grew even more impressed. Solid wine choice, especially at this price point. For food, we ordered the pretzel (love that tangy mustard), a few burgers, and mac n' cheese. All were delicious and (similar to the wine) at a fair price point. Solid (contingency) menu and staff pulled off what COULD have been a hellish night. read more

I've eaten there three times now and every meal has been a pretty dramatic surprise for a brewpub I've had the fish and chips which I highly recommend I tried the euro tonight, which was really good. The pita bread appears to be homemade. The smoked chicken wings were amazing You have to check it out for sure when you're in town read more

I pretty rarely leave Yelp reviews but this deserved a 5-star review. On a beautiful evening in the summer, our group of 18 didn't think we'd be able to find a table anywhere, but they got us right in. The staff was friendly and efficient, the food was fast, and most importantly the food was delicious--everyone's order was correct and everyone (across all age groups) raved about their food (I especially recommend the Korean Chicken Sandwich)! Great option for big groups, groups with kids (game area to keep them happy), or just anyone looking for a great meal! read more

We stopped here on a Thursday for drinks. It was pretty quiet, but there was live music, which was pretty cool! We each tried a couple beers, and they were all pretty decent! The Dramamatrix was probably the favorite at our table. We also got a pretzel to snack on- the pretzel was very light and fluffy, and the beer cheese was good! Our server was great- she was very quick to offer us more drinks when our cups were empty, and had plenty of recommendations when we asked. Overall, it was a good experience! read more

We actually ended up visiting twice in one weekend because the beer is great, and the location is central to most things. They have a large seating capacity so finding a spot on a fall day was easy. There were great beer options and we were pleasantly delighted that the food is just as good. The olive burger and gyro were stand outs for us! read more

We were looking for a place to grab some food on a Saturday night and there were not many options in the area without having a reservation , so we ended up at Saugatuck Brewing Co. We have been here before to sample their beers, but this time we also wanted some food. We had to wait 20 minutes, mostly because the outdoor area was closed due to rain. We had the Bavarian Jumbo pretzel with cheese sauce. The pretzel was large , and soft and fresh. It was not covered with too much salt. My husband had the double smash burger , which he enjoyed. He also had a flight of beer . He tried the Bonfire Brown, Blueberry Maple Stout, Rainbow Rodeo IPA and Melon Ball Double IPA , and a few others. He enjoyed the Melon Ball- and the lemon and citrus flavors, so much we bought some to take home, along with the Blueberry Lemonade Shandy, which was on summer clearance. We will be back when in the area. read more

Great find on our way home from Saugatuck Dunes State Park. I ordered the Mediterranean Bowl - (Falafel, hummus, quinoa tabbouleh, kalamata olives, pickled red onion and tahini sauce. Served with pita.) It was really quite good and very filling. The portion size was generous. My beer choice was not my favorite - the Oval Beach Blonde. But I enjoyed my husband's beer, Blueberry Lemonade Shandy. Overall, the food was awesome! I would like to try some of the other beers on their menu. And luckily there are 2 other locations that I could venture to! read more

All of their beer is from the 90s. The Lager isn't good, just meh, PBR is 10x better. Their selection of stouts and Porters would be the best bet but I'm an ipa and Pilsner guy and they can't do those well. Someone should redo all of their beer and turn this into a better spot. read more

Great setting. That's it. Stopped in for lunch on the way into Saugatuck. Sometimes it's great to try something new. Sometimes not. Limited and unimaginative menu. Painfully slow service. Perhaps they'd be better just sticking to beer , and allowing food trucks to come in. read more

The food was amazing, great service. I had the bacon smash burger, street corn, pretzel, street corn dip. Delicious

We sat at bar for 10 minutes and the only behind the bar was on a phone the whole time , made no eye contact or gestures to us. We left without having a beer so no idea if beer is good or not. Service was awful! read more

-rolled into town on a Tues. late afternoon and wanted a bite after unloading. I had previously searched yelp for some reviews of area restaurants in town. -at this point, early evening, we just wanted a sandwich to go. We called here a couple times and no answer. So hubster drives down to find a sign on the door temporarily closed with no explanation... The vm is rude to begin with, definitely not inviting, but someone should have changed your hrs on yelp if not temporary, left a vm explanation, or an apology on the sign for such an emergency, you remember customer service. What is it about Saugatuck that the restaurants can close anytime at a whim, 2nd one tonight... read more

I eat here whenever I come to town and they have many excellent dishes but the reason I'm taking the time to write a review is the street tacos. Yesterday I ordered the tacos and the portions were so generous I couldn't eat it all. I took one of the 3 tacos home. Today I microwaved it for lunch and it was STILL good. Incredible! Tacos don't usually reheat well of course, but I tried it because I couldn't bear to throw away such good food. And that worked out! I've also really enjoyed their jalapeño grilled cheese, and the whipped feta. I've never had anything bad here! read more

There is really nothing special about this place. Overpriced, mediocre food. Poor service and even poorer beer. Stay far away from this place. I'd honestly choose McDonald's for lunch over this place. read more

Pretty solid brewery with lots of space, clean bathrooms, kid friendly environment, and solid food. Somewhat limited beer choices for a brewery but they were good. Met our needs with lagers, IPA, and shandy options. Service was good- food was generally accepted by all. Great side salad, good crispy fries, chicken fingers were not the best but that grilled cheese was unique and pretty good. Fish dip was smoky and good! Keep up the good work! read more

Honestly had such high hopes for this place. Got there and it looked nice but then when I got my food my chicken wings were pink all the way through and when we asked about it they said it was fine. But, when the tables next to us also complained about their chicken they took it off for them. When we got our check they charged us for a large salad when we asked for a small twice. Overall disappointed. Drinks were good though read more

I'd have to say this is the first brewery I've ever been to where I liked every single beer. I got a flight and it was phenomenal. Sat at the bar and the bartenders were friendly. It was a new menu roll out so the food was sub par just my opinion. But they did take the app off since it wasn't the best and I didn't expect that either. Great place I'll be back again!!! I love it! Also! Live music a guy and his keyboard and he played really good songs too great atmosphere. read more

Fantastic! Cannot say enough good things!!!! Pet friendly patio where I can enjoy a brewski with my buddy after hitting Saugatuck State Park Dunes is a welcome way to end a day hiking. Speaking of brews, I have yet to try a beer here that I don't like. Solid SW Michigan brewery. The food is fantastic. The chicken tenders are the best I have ever had in my life! I would know, because I was a total chicken finger ordering kind of child and teenager. I have much to compare it to, and these are the best. Trust me! Also, fantastic service (maybe a little slow...but the food is fresh). read more

This is close to our place in Douglas - great beer choices, and in my opinion as an adult who eats like a child, they have the best chicken tenders in the Midwest - they are amazing.
