Perch entree
Lynda H.

Service was amazing , food was good. It's pretty loud at dinner time but that's to be expected at a Bar. My son enjoyed the Perch.

Walleye Dinner
Adam S.

TAP21 is a great bar and restaurant in the city of Manistique that offers more than twenty different brews. They're even known for the best food selection in the city! So my mother and I went to eat there for dinner and it was a great experience thanks to the best service from one of the barkeepers on duty! The walleye is exceptionally grilled and served with very tasty sides of green beans and a choice of potato. The jalapeños were half portion due to quantity shortage on the kitchens end, but it never disappoints us! The mushrooms were well fried and the burnt ends were delicious! Their burnt ends may not be of bbq joint quality but the sauce is a great addition to the meat! We both shared the smorgasbord but ended up not finishing it because it was a lot of food to enjoy in one sitting. Nonetheless it was delicious and the drinks served were very good too! May come back again next time we go to Manistique!

Spaghetti!

To die for Fettacuni Alfredo with Shrimp! Alfredo sauce on the sweet side, I loved the unique flavor! Thick and creamy, yum! Shrimp were large and fresh, cooked perfectly. I destroyed my plate in a few minutes. Look at my pic, very deceiving. She brought it out, I was like "that is a tiny portion" ---- but the plate is more like a plate bowl, super deep. Service was excellent and the place was jammed packed for dinner during the week. Great selection of craft beers - but for the love of god - Mr. Manager, no one can read your beer list of the screens. LoL, if you go, you will know........

Outside. There's going to be a second floor soon!

Loved the woodwork on the bar and the stamped tin ceiling. ! They have 21 beers and cider on tap! The food was good too. Skylar, our awesome bartender and server, said that they are in the process of constructing a second floor. That is going to look great with the big windows you in the outside pic. Such a great ambience!

1890's bar made from a solid piece of wood. Somehow, this bar survived Prohibition.

Manistique has a hidden gem. It's Tap 21, the kind of authentic tavern you just don't find back in SE Michigan. Very friendly staff made this tourist feel right at home quickly. My bride & I started our dinner with the fried mushroom appetizer. Huge silver dollar-sized breaded & fried mushrooms. Yum! Next was the Bluegill dinner with mixed veggies plus a loaded baked potato. The fish was perfectly fried, crispy & flavorful. When our server said the portions were generous, she wasn't kidding. 8 pieces of fish! The baked potato was covered in cheese with large hunks of bacon, not bacon bits. Even the side salad was worth noting: not some forgetable iceberg lettuce but a spring mix. My wife & I don't drink, but it's worth noting that they have an impressive list of craft beers. If you are traveling through the UP, I highly recommend visiting Tap 21.

Perch fillets with sides. Mac & Cheese with burnt ends.

All the fried food smelled of old cooking grease. Could hardly distinguish between the flavors of the perch and French fries.

Iron Bay Restaurant & Drinkery - Two very tasty but very small fish tacos.

No wait on the tap room side. 25-45 minute wait in the main dining area. Same food available in the…read moreTap room. We prefer bar service over dining service, seem to be generally more attentive and the two staff work as a team. Brandon is waiting on us. He's friendly and good at customer service. Ordered the whitefish dip, baba Ghanouj, superior whitefish tater tots, tabouli salad, superior whitefish chowder, superior whitefish tacos with black pepper fries and a spicy crispy chicken sandwich and cabbage slaw. $111 They do charge a 4% transparency fund: employee retention, living wages, staff happiness. Written on the bottom of your bill. The dishes are scratch made, in house. Nice! The tabouli is too, has some mixed greens in it. There is something sweet in the dressing or the buckwheat, not my thing at all. Rest of the salad is good though. The baba ghanouj on its own is quite garlicky, slight Smokey flavor to it. It doesn't work with the pita crackers. Not loving this at all. The whitish dip is good. My hubby liked the sweet pickled for watermelon rind garnish, I didn't like them much. The spicy chicken sandwich on the brioche bun is really good. The chicken is super crispy. It's quite good. The whitish tacos are good. The whitefish seems to be blackened, really nicely. The fish is light and perfectly cooked. The whitefish chowder is so good! The tater tots are so delicious. No slouch here. Crunchy and so yummy! Food was so unique and quiet food. The side pepper fries are and slaw ate both a bit blah, compared to the majority of our flavorful meals Service is top notch.

As we were waiting in line a bartender walked past and mentioned a free table with seat yourself FCFS in the tap room. We snagged the table and were greeted immediately. The table was decorated with some cute hand drawn coasters. Ordered a couple beverages and appetizers as well as mains. The food was all delicious and service was great. We ordered a carrot cake cupcake to share for dessert. This was our least favorite part of the experience, but my partner's only complaint was the surprise golden raisins. He's not a huge fan of "pieces" in his cake. I loved the frosting, although it wasn't traditional cream cheese frosting. It was decadent and rich. 8/10.
