What a great spot, drive past it countless times as we went into the downtown area. Interior was very spacious and the patio, where we sat was great. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The food was down right delicious. One of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. It was super fresh and piping hot, you Jan tell it was hand battered there. The fries were well seasoned. Oh and they have beer!! Which was also great. read more

A Sunday "fun day" you can't pass up! Antique shopping followed by brewed beverages is a Hail Mary and Alleluia! The blueberry lemonade shandy & strawberry lemonade shandy are going home with us for poolside enjoyment. And let's not ignore my choice: oval beach blonde. YUM! From a former bartender, this brew establishment has the taste customers are in search of to quench one's thirst. Shop away... just don't forget to stop next door to enjoy the outdoor beer garden! Great service, great people, great choice for a Sunday afternoon! read more

The beer and food were excellent. However the service was really slow and they were not that busy. Our server never came back to ask us how our food was or if we needed more drinks. When we asked for our bill she just dropped it off and didn't come back to cash us out until 30 minutes later. She was obviously annoyed to be there. read more

When it comes to the servers it's really touch and go. I decided to do multiple visits just to be sure if maybe I got someone on an off day. 3 out of 5 of those visits I realized it wasn't an off day. Food however was delicious. Unfortunately the fried pickles are no longer on the menu. They fry them as spears and it has to be the best fried pickles I've had thus far. Drinks are great, but you may be waving or waiting for a refill. Portions are fairly large! So you will be plenty full. It's clean and I did enjoy the food and music and the atmosphere. read more

Grabbed a quick beer here for heading out for a dune ride. We sat on the patio because the inside was somewhat dark and dreary. Outside was great with lots of flowers & plants everywhere. Our server was so kind when we said we were just popping in for a quick drink before heading on our way. The IPAs we tried were delicious (unfortunately I can't recall which ones we ordered). Didn't try any food, but maybe next time! read more

Solid salad and great size. The large could easily serve two people or one very hungry human. read more

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

I despise when your favorite places cut corners and hope you don't notice.My favorite drink was cut in HALF & still charged the same amount.Really???? At least shave some of the price off OR up the price! I would gladly pay More for my peach Bellini vs the shot glass you've substituted it for the same $12 dollars.Ridiculous! A lime wedge & umbrella does not distract from the absurdly small glass you've switched to!!!!! Most likely won't return. 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

Cool atmosphere with friendly service. The Black Cherry Lemonade Shandy was great for a hot summer day on the patio. Cheese curds with ranch were great for getting us started. The Nashville Hot Chicken Sando was amazing! read more

We were seated right away once we arrived and all throughout the experience we had excellent and quick service. We got the smash burgers, the kung pao chicken sandwhich, and some cheese curds. Everything came out quickly and tasted spot on! Great location and excellent spot to just hangout and chat while you eat. 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

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

Drinks were good. Ambiance was not what was expected. Kinda had the vibe if Denny's added craft beer.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Saugatuck Brewing Co - Lunch - Brewpubs 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

Beer was great, all the IPAs were delicious. And the pickle dip and crispy chicken salad was great too

Fun brewing company in Saugatuck, MI. Friendly atmosphere with food and drinks inside and out. The open air patio was busy at noon, we sat indoors just for a bit of relief from the heat. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable and offered great suggestion. Good food options to choose from, even offering a kids menu. There is a little shop area to pick up some "Brew" merch and beer to take home with you. Fun place to stop, will definitely be back! 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

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

For the usually crowded Douglass/Saugatuck area this restaurant/brewery is both easy to get into and serves good food. I'm not a beer person, but I had the root beer which was great. Their Mediterranean bowl (vegetarian) has a nice selection of items, well cooked and tasty. Service is polite and fast, interior space is comfortable and cheery and outdoor patio is great. 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

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

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

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

First time here. The fish and chips are FANTASTIC. And the Blueberry Lemonade Shandy is delightful - and I don't even usually like beer. If you go to the antique store next door first and bring your receipt in, you get 10% off! Definitely coming back. 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

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
