    firebird wrap
    Ashley E.

    It's not a trip to Michigan without a stop at The Lodge! Ordered a carry out Firebird wrap on my way out of town - it was tasty! If you've never been inside, it's very open with a small bar. There's an outdoor seating area, but I've never been back there. I typically grab to-go with my family since the patio isn't dog friendly, but it's only about a 15 minute wait. I will say $15 is a little steep for a wrap and chips (+ $1 if you want the dip) but when you're camping and it's one of the best local options - it's worth it.

    Broasted chicken.with slaw
    Linda H.

    This is the 2nd time we'd been here. The first was right after they opened and we weren't thrilled buttttttttttt there is all kinds of hype about this place so we tried again. I had the broasted chicken, side salad and slaw. The chicken was very hot so that was good but it was dry and I didn't care for the flavor. The cole slaw was mediocre at best. My husband said the burger was ok but nothing special. The food came out very hot so it had not sat under the light to keep it warm He tried my chicken and said it was dry and wasn't even as good as the Krispy Krunchy Chicken from the gas station. Our server Kelly G was EXCELLANT in fact all the employees we came in contact with were very pleasant, smiling & courteous. There were not a lot of menu items either of us were interested in. There is a lot of hype about this place but we just weren't impressed with it at all. It was very clean and pleasant inside. We've tried twice and both agreed there won't be a third time.

    Cole slaw

    Amazing friendly service with affordable good food? What a concept... everything we had was delicious. The sauces such as the carmelized onion dip, and spicy garlic was good. Chicken sandwiches were hefty and fried pickles were a good starter. I wish they had all this back in the DMV area. Place was super chill no expensive ambiance and poshness. Def a must try in South haven.

    Walleye lunch special for Lent
    Joe B.

    I've been a couple times with my wife who loves the vegetarian smash burger. I've tried a couple things but this last trip they offered a Walleye fish basket and it was great. I wish it was always on the menu but was told it's a special for Lent.

    Delightful craft cocktails

    We really enjoyed our first visit to The Lodge for a Saturday lunch and will definitely return when in the area again! Service was friendly and helpful with suggestions. We opted for the deviled eggs starter followed by the broasted chicken 'tendy' basket and the classic smash burger. Everything tasted great, but I can't recommend the broasted chicken 'tendies' enough; my mouth waters just thinking about them along with their amazing honey mustard dipping sauce! Note: As this was our first visit, and on a Saturday to boot, it was very busy and pretty loud; this is definitely a popular spot! If you're looking for a quieter experience (and easier parking), maybe try visiting at an off time.

    Oyster crackers with ranch-  just like my Mom made
    Bill T.

    We had two different appetizers. The ranch oyster crackers and the buttered garlic rolls. The rolls were a special for the day and were amazing. We had the Firebird (buffalo chicken sandwich with blue cheese), quesadilla, and the Cure (Smashburger with egg). We all enjoyed our dinners. Service was good and they kept our drinks filled. Efficient with food and help. Place is fairly open, w music, laughter and lots of locals. Recommended!

    Oh my. First of all, I roll in at about 2:30 on a Monday and the place is busy. Good sign! I'd heard about the deviled eggs. I went with the "traditional" and was transported back to my Momma's deviled eggs. Divine. I love fried pickles and so "had" to try those. Lightly breaded so that won points and the pickles themselves? . Ate them cold the next day, still good. I got traditional chicken tenders, cause chicken is kind of their thing. Also benefited by a light breading. But let me tell you...if you love garlic, get the spicy garlic sauce and an extra to take home and put on anything else. If you like garlic, get the spicy garlic sauce. If you don't like garlic, try it anyway. Transport to heaven. The place reflects the Lodge theme, but is not overdone. The service was awesome. Absolutely no regrets at all except that I didn't come here sooner!

    Old fashioned and a dark and stormy at the Lodge

    See all

    Everything here is fantastic, but you have to try the caramelized onion dip! I can't recommend the food here enough.

    Always good and always on top of things. Good crew and great service. You can't go wrong with the roasted chicken and I love the soup.
