Stopped in for a midweek lunch on a gorgeous June afternoon with family. Though told that our wait for an outside table would be about 30 minutes, we were happily surprised that the text that our table was ready came in under 10. Great start! The staff and servers were polite and helpful, although the service was a bit slow. Given the fact that they were training new waitstaff and the restaurant industry is still very much reeling from the pandemic, this was completely understandable and did not negatively impact our experience in any way. Most importantly, our meals were delicious!. The Foul Weather sandwich (grilled chicken, avocado, bacon, tomato, mozzarella, greens, garlic aioli, served on naan) was a table favorite and I would definitely order it again when we return. The Classic Cheese Flatbread Pizza served hot and bubbling, was also basic and delicious, with a truly outstanding crust. The sleeper, however, was the very innocent-sounding Truffle Oil & Fresh Parmesan drizzled popcorn. It was amazing! Who knew that something so spectacular could be done with an innocent (very generous) bowl of popcorn?? The only beer drinker in our group went for the Foeder Aged Schwarzbier and thoroughly enjoyed it, claiming it to be reminiscent of many of the beers he enjoyed while in Germany. We're already planning our next visit to Frankfort and another meal at Stormcloud Brewing! read more

Being in Frankfort is wonderful enough but having an awesome brewery on Main Street is the BEST! Stormcloud hits it out of the park in all ways: fantastic food, beautiful clean pub (indoors and out), amazing service from fun and friendly employees (you will likely see co-owner Rick happily helping out behind the bar), and top notch beers with a Belgian influence. I am a forever fan! read more

Loved Stormcloud brewery!! We were there on a nice day so we sat outside which was really nice! The Octoberfest beer was awesome. Service was friendly too. A great place to stop if exploring western Michigan! read more

Drinks were good and cold, service was fast and super kind, and the store was clean and a good environment. Couldn't ask for much better.

Yum yum yum. These are the three words I'd use to describe this restaurant. Smoked white fish, woah! Danggg good. But I got to say the pretzel with da beer cheese take the prize for apps. Too many good choices for food but the bbq pork had that tang on it. So good. Beer choice- saison Lucida. You will take a six pack of this home with you so be ready for that. All in all had a great time at the stormcloud. read more

They have a great staff! I highly recommend the "Farthest Shore" brew.... Yummy yummy! Dark, semi sweet and fully loaded! Also try the "Thai one on" pizza.... I order with extra shrimp and it's drizzled w a Thai peanut sauce... worth it every time!! read more

Great brewery to stumble upon as it was just a couple doors down from my hotel. They had about a dozen or so Belgian style beers on tap. A couple of them had notes about being awarded at various national competitions. Belgian brews can be a bit funky due to the yeast that is used but that's a feature not a bug. They're not for everyone but I really enjoyed the Harvest Brett Pale Ale and the Rainmaker Ale I had was above average. Bartenders were very attentive and willing to provide samples before committing to anything. I didn't try any food while I was there. So beer review only. read more

We visited Stormcloud regularly while staying in Frankfort for an extended weekend of hiking, both for the beer and food. And we were lucky enough to overlap with their Beer Week, which meant Oktoberfest brews and food specials. Needless to say we were in heaven, and though we took all our orders to go, it looked like they were being diligent about managing COVID precautions. If you're ever in the area, at least be sure to pick up a 6-pack of growler! read more

Food was great. Beer excellent. Service not so good. Waitress was either new and overwhelmed with 6 tables or just a poor waitress. Either did not hear order properly or didn't care. Appeared the second as she repeated order and still got it wrong . Never brought out dishes or silverware, had to go to bar and get myself. Got popcorn, which we thought was happy hour in place of chips with bar cheese that we ordered . Wife order a second beer, I did not, but was still served a second beer. But the food and beer were great. read more

Excellent Belgian beers, friendly staff, and great menu. Food-wise so far I've only tried the smoked whitefish spread and truffle popcorn, but I can't wait to try more items as those were delicious. Lots of outdoor dining space. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area! read more

Great service great food great environment. Staff is super friendly and this place is everything a brewery should be. I got the brisket sandwich with chips, but if your health minded, the salads my socialist companions ordered looked really good. The flat breads were also very tasty. It has an outdoor beer garden for those perfect northern Michigan August days and is only 2 or 3 blocks from the beach. read more

Very good food and different. We had the Reuben on marble rye lightly grilled. The sauerkraut was delicious and mild. The grilled cheese was on fry bread. We liked the different choices of food. Service at the bar very good. read more

I really love the beer here. The service is good and I really love the roasted root salad and the Thai one on pizza.

Great beer, awesome menu in a cute lake shore town. I had the Kale salad which had cherries and a delightful dressing. I like the Rainmaker beer too. The decor was american brewhouse. Waitresses were excellent. read more

Michelle... you rock. You were super friendly and helpful. Great food and brew. You can't go wrong!! read more

Stormcloud Brewing - Excellent fish spread. Soft pretzels thumbs up. Beer...yes please. Michelle, thank you for your knowledge, kindness, great advice. - Brewpubs Near Me - Frankfort, Michigan

Yikes This was the worst pizza crust I've ever had. Wish we would have ordered pizza locally or even frozen pizzas. The server was friendly and there is a huge outdoor seating area. Really big beer menu but we were not drinking tonight. I think everything is frozen and they just reheat it. Our server told us the pizza crust is warmed up in the kitchen. The soup was poor but it is what happens when restaurants get away from actually cooking instead re-heat masters. read more

Grain bowl was good. Beer was good. Fun atmosphere and nice servers. Loved the daily special cheese beer soup.

We drove over from Crystal Mountain for dinner and had a great time. Casual atmosphere, family friendly, and great staff. Our waitress was super sweet and knew the menu very well. We were going back and forth between a few things and she gave her recommendations- we were not disappointed. Just a heads up- they don't have a fryer, so if you have a picky toddler, don't expect French fries, but the cheese pizza will hit the spot. What impressed us most was seeing one of the owners helping out his staff clean off the tables and interacting with his guests. We will definitely be back when we come back up to Crystal. read more

Stopped in after a day on the dunes. After 8pm we were told the menu is limited to Pizza, Popcorn, Pretzels ... the 3Ps wonder if the owner thought that was cute ... heehee. Pizza was good and the pretzel sticks and sauce were good as well. understand a limited menu to reduce staff or deal with lack of staff. Beer choices were good as well, mosaic and 228 triple. The one place I was disappointed is that the single dessert item they have on the menu is not served after 8pm. Seems a shame. It does come in a cast iron skillet were the 3Ps are all disposable. Not sure it would be that much work to run the skillets through the dishwasher. Waitress did suggest one of the many ice cream shops. Not the same, but a nice suggestion. read more

We sat outdoors on the patio on Labor Day. It was about a 40 minute to an hour wait. We enjoyed ourselves. Our server was great and very attentive. The popcorn wasn't that good. However, the white fish spread was delicious. The storm sticks were good. Everyone enjoyed their meals. My husband really like the Fowler chicken sandwich and I enjoyed the storm rider pizza. We would definitely go back when in town. We felt very safe. The staff all wore masks and we were seated at least 6 feet away from others. read more

Great brewery. Good food. Have been coming here for years, every year they improve. Great environment read more

Loved this place! They have a great selection of drinks, the service was great, and the food looked awesome. We actually ate dinner somewhere else then came here for drinks. I was kind of annoyed as all the food looked great. We did get an appetizer, the white fish--super delicious, but mainly just ordered drinks. Our waitress was super knowledgeable and attentive. They have good seating and a great atmosphere. Overall it was a great time. Wish we would have had dinner at this place over the Italian place down the street with the child labor. read more

Food was fine, service was what you would expect for a summer of college kids but ambiance was poor. We were seated at a table smaller than a cocktail table, the bussing area was larger than our "dining" table & frankly we were just annoyed we waited 35 minutes for such a poor dining experience. read more

What a fun vibe here. Drove down from Empire to eat here. It was trivia night and the place was jumping. Roasted Root Salad was really great and the small is plenty. My husband had pulled pork sand which and said it was fantastic. Try this place! read more

The nachos are very bad, so i would not order those. They taste kind of sweet. The pizza sticks were super greasy. Whitefish dip was decent. Not fans of the cider, but double IPA was enjoyed. Sorry - wanted to like it, but just not an enjoyable meal! read more

Just went on forth of July for dinner didn't have to wait too long to get in. The service was a little forgetful. We got our food before our beer and then waited for silverware. I loved the outdoor seating and it had a good set up. Would want to try again when it's not a holiday. read more

Very good food and very good service, but they serve pizzas and saladS and don't have ranch??? HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE RANCH!!!

Loved every single beer we tried! And the pizza was great! The spinach dip wasn't that good, but we would love to go back and try other food. read more

Went to see what the town of Frankfort had to offer - found this restaurant from Yelp reviews and it did not disappoint. Dog friendly restaurant as well! Had a chicken sandwich and the grilled cheese with a cup of tomato soup to dip it in. Both meals were great and very filling. We also got the pretzel with cheese as an appetizer that was also great dipped in the tomato soup! Will be back on our next trip! read more

Stormcloud Brewing - Grilled cheese and tomato soup - Brewpubs Near Me - Frankfort, Michigan

The food and beer were good. Dinner for five with three drinks was $84. I had the grilled cheese and opted for the goat cheese, bacon and tomato add ons. It was pretty tasty. When the bill came - I noticed they doubled the price of the grilled cheese add-ons vs. what was advertised on the table menu. They corrected it. Like most places, they have a menu on the wall behind glass so potential patrons can see what's what before rolling the dice. It looked good, so we took our chances. Beware: in some cases, the prices on the "street view" menu are significantly lower than what's listed on the "table" menu (over 20%). Case in point: as of 8/6/2021, the grilled cheese is $9 on the "street view" menu - but it's actually listed for $11 on the menu they bring to the table. This was probably just a simple oversight by management; not intentional false advertising. Sometimes you just need to review your bill closely to be sure you're not getting gouged. After our orders were placed, the waitstaff quickly removed the menus from the table - which makes it more challenging to check things later (perhaps that's the point). There may be other pricing inconsistencies not in the customers' favor - pay attention. Overall good service and food - but the menu pricing and billing were..."off". read more

So far, we have eaten here, had take away from here (got a keg to go), and eaten in the igloo. Every time we have gotten great, friendly service. On top of all that, great beer choices and menu. Last time we were there, it felt like we ordered a little bit of everything, between the flights of beer, appetizers, pizza (because we wanted to share), and dessert. We will be back every chance we can get! Go check it out for yourself! read more

While staying at a bed and breakfast in Arcadia, our host told us that his favorite restaurant in the neighboring town of Frankfort was Storm Cloud Brewing. Having now eaten there I can see why. We actually ended up eating there twice during our little getaway. The first time we ate there was on a Friday night. There wasn't a real big crowd (which was fine with me considering this took place during the Covid pandemic) but even if there WAS a crowd the tables were arranged to meet the social distancing mandate. Katie seated us AND she waited on us. We had to fill out a form with our names and phone numbers (for contact tracing) and we were given menus. I chose the Grain Bowl (kale, red rice, red quinoa, black barley, edamame, cremini mushrooms, sesame seeds, almonds, and bell pepper, with a tahini dressing......I had chicken added to mine) and my husband had a burger. My grain bowl was amazing (I'm still thinking about it) and my husband said his burger was good. We also got an order of their Storm Battered Beans (green beans coated with batter and fried). The beans were just okay (in my opinion) but my husband really liked them. All of the employees that I observed, as well as all of the customers that were moving about, wore masks and they wore them correctly (I would have left if they didn't). While my husband and I ate inside we did observe some patrons dining outside in little igloos. Katie took very good care of us during our visit and she also took our take out order the next afternoon when we ordered pizza and popcorn to take back to our bed and breakfast. We got two different kinds of pizza, "Rider On The Storm" and "Thai One On". Rider on the Storm had sausage, goat cheese, sliced apple, green onion, parmesan cheese, garlic herb oil, and a balsamic reduction drizzle......that was my favorite. Thai One On had curried shrimp, mushrooms, corn, green onion, parmesan cheese, a house cheese blend, garlic herb oil and a Thai peanut curry drizzle. That one was good too, but it was a little too spicy for me. We also got an order of their popcorn with truffle oil and parmesan cheese. It had great flavor, however it was a bit chewy. The chewy probably happened because it was closed up in a to-go box while it was still hot........something to definitely keep in mind. It might be best to get the popcorn with plans to eat it on site. This restaurant was great and we will definitely dine there again when we are in the area. I really want another Grain Bowl! read more

My wife and I had beer and lunch at Stormcloud. While none of the beer (we tried 5) blew us away, they were thoughtful and diverse enough to merit a try by the curious. The food is what brings the review down. It wasn't bad. But it also wasn't anything special. And, the amount you get for what you pay is not great. For example. I paid $16 for a very, very average, sloppy, 10-inch pizza that was slightly over-cooked. Overall, Stormcloud is worth one try--maybe no more. read more

Place is exaggeratedly crowded both inside and outside almost every evening. My wait time was around 45 minutes for a party of 2. Great ambience, food, not so much. I had the "Stormchos", they had too much going on. The spicy sauce combined with a dill sauce just wasn't a great mix in my opinion. The taste just wasn't there. My cousin ordered the "Mediterranean Flatbread", that was pretty good although it wasn't worth the $11 price tag. The beer selection was amazing! The flights I ordered were a great mix, a little bit of everything. My favorite was the porter, nice dark beer that was surprisingly smooth, that one really stood out to me. I will definitely be stopping by again to try their other incredible beer selection only and skip the food. read more
