I cannot stop thinking about The Mitten. This area has a pretty large gap in restaurants that are good and ones that... well you know. The Mitten? Truly one of the best places we ate while in town. How good? We went three times. The pizza is out of this world. They know what they're doing. The beer? Also a 10/10. So many options that really set them apart. Each time we went the folks behind the bar and out at tables were kind and really on it. Finally, the outside area is a gem. Great views and baseball vibes. read more

Great little patio / outside seating in the heart of downtown. Was seated promptly and we were off to a good start. Waiter came back and took our beer order and then disappeared. He then proceeded to take everyone else's food order, even though they sat after us, prior to come back to take ours. We finally ordered and they pizza came out. Couple points in the pizza, it was good mind you but each topping is $2.50. If I get bacon on a pizza I'm expecting more than a sparse sprinkling of bacon bits on my pizza for that amount. If you order ham on you pizza they provide a good amount but the pieces of game are pretty large and tend to come off as part of the initial bite. They have a food runner that is delivering the pizzas so we didn't interact with the waiter again, no check in, no asking if we wanted another round of drinks. Multiple attempts to flag him down went ignored, I finally grabbed my own to go box for the left overs. I was finally able to get his attention after he made five trips to fill up a water cooler so that we could pay. Food & Drinks great. Service was dreadful. read more

Super cute spot! Service is friendly and attentive. We got the pretzel and it is huge! It comes with choice of 3 dipping sauces. Also, they are located in the perimeter of the social area and can get your beer to go if you choose. read more

This spot was so fun!! We stopped on a random weekday afternoon while passing through town. They have PIZZA FLIGHTS - this idea is absolutely genius!! You can pick up to four different pizzas that come out as one big pie! I LOVE unique pizza and always have a hard time choosing which one to try - this idea is just the absolute best!! My husband and I both chose 2 pizzas to have included in our flight - everyone wins!! :) We chose Aloha BBQ, Brickhouse Bee Sting, Curse of the Goat, and Brotherly Love. We also requested a side of ranch! They have delicious ranch! Every pizza was so tasty and we loved every single bite!! The beer choices are also great!! My husband and I both enjoyed our selections and they paired so nicely with the pizza!! My Husband chose Fog Out, a New England IPA. I ordered the Pour of 84, a Pilsner and ode to the 84 Detroit Tigers! So cool!! They have a super cute outdoor eating space! Several 2 seaters up on their cute wrap around porch and then many more picnic style tables out in their side yard! Perfect for a lakeshore restaurant experience! This place is truly so fun! Definitely worth checking out!! read more

We had a pre-wedding family pizza dinner at The Mitten, and it was GREAT! The wait staff was very patient with our large party, which included kids. We loved it! read more

Great lunch spot in downtown Saugatuck! Tried the aloha bbq pizza and margarita pizza which had soft chewy crust and were loaded with toppings. Both were delicious and filling for our party of four to share. There was also a good selection of draft beers (including a sour/tart beer!) as well as regular soft drinks. Service was quick and very friendly. Small indoor seating available with AC as well as an outdoor patio. read more

Awesome beer list and the staff was super friendly and helpful! Highly recommend and we will for sure be back next time!

Had the Italian and it was good. I didn't like that the topping slid off due to no sauce, however it was awesome great tasting pizza. Good beers on tap and great apps. read more

The pizza was phenomenal. The mix of different ingredients in our pizza flight was fabulous. On the other hand, the beer was only fair.

Our group of 10 came in on a Sunday afternoon to grab some lunch and drinks. We sat at 2 picnic tables on the patio. Several of us tried their beers, which they enjoyed. We ordered the Margherita pizza, the Mediterranean pizza, the pickle Play bread sticks, garlic knots, the Big Show (12" pretzel with sauces). We also ordered a pizza flight, which had 4 different pizzas (no photo of that one). The Mediterranean pizza was a bit disappointing, the flavor was a bit flat. Nothing stood out, kind of bland actually. The potential was great with toppings like roasted garlic, feta, olives, artichokes, basil and balsamic glaze. It was just missing something, we thought the feta was so mild, that we wouldn't have known it was there, if we didn't see it. The Margherita pizza waa much better. The Big Show pretzel tasted great, we liked the mustard they served with it. The garlic knots were tasty. My nieces were very happy with Pickle play bread sticks, but they didn't have the panko bread crumbs like the menu says. read more

Made it a goal to check this location off the list before heading up North for another location of The Mitten Brewing. I enjoyed that it was slightly on the outside of Saugatuck so you could get away from the summer crowds. It was a cute little place offering some inside seating and outdoor seating as well. The beer was delightful and meet with a nice breeze. The staff was friendly. We didn't stick around for long as we had stops to make, but overall a nice little pit stop. read more

Exceptional customer service! We found this gem on Yelp. We walked by it earlier and didn't realize it was the same spot. When we walked by, the staff was sooo friendly. The staff at The Mitten Brewing truly care about their customers. I ordered a pizza to go via Yelp. I didn't get a confirmation email so I popped in before my pizza pick up time to make sure it went through. The team called Grand Rapids to make sure I didn't order at the wrong place. Once they confirmed the order wasn't there, they expedited our order. While we waited, we were able to order a drink. We snuck in a piece of pizza because we had to check into our lodging. Pesto chicken is sooo good. Not only are the people amazing and the customer service off the chain, the food is so good! Pesto pizza was just the thing we needed to take to our camp ground. Definitely will be back next time we are in the area read more

Our airbnb host recommended this small little restaurant. We can on a Friday night and parking was not bad. However, since it is a small restaurant, there was very limited seating. My friends and I ordered drinks from the bar and found a high table and situated ourselves there while waiting for our pizza. We got beer flights and the beers were all tasty. I think we got the pesto chicken flavor. The pizza came out and it was pretty good. I'm not a big pizza person but it was decent. My friends liked it too. read more

What a great venue for outdoor seating and pizza! It was a beautiful evening and busy so we stopped here and they sat us outdoors. The menu has a vast selection of options (including GF and Vegan) and the 4 of us ordered 2. They were both delicious. The crust is def homemade and just enough crunch w/out being doughy. Do yourself a favor and stop in. Big selection of beer and other drinks, the owner is personable and fun to chat - GO! read more

Celiac Foodie: Overall a good experience. Walking downtown Saugatuck stopped in to check out this Brewery to see if they offer Gluten Free items. Spoke to Drew, very knowledgeable on Cross Contamination, explained how the kitchen treats the GF dough & other options. Small indoor seating area with tables, low & high top, flat screen TVs showing sports and napkins on the table. Paper plates and plastic silverware are provided. Service was slow once we seated. Tried a sample of the Sangria and Cider that are Gluten Free. Very smooth & delicious. Ordered the Gluten Free Crust Pizza with Ham and Extra Pineapple. Sauce had a spice, very tasty and crust was slightly doughy in the center but with crisp edge. May have needed to be cooked a little longer. No illness from consuming product. Happy Dining! read more

Get yourself some The Mitten Brewing pizza! It is so good! Stopped in with a friend and we ordered a pizza flight: Your choice of four of their specialty pizzas. All the options are wonderful! We had margarita, Mediterranean, veggie, and a goat cheese option. We were stuffed and we took about one-third of it home. The space is cute, if not a little basic. There are tables and picnic tables with umbrellas outside. If you sit just in the right spot, there's a view of the lake across the street. read more

First of all, excellent pizza! We had a margarita, a pepperoni, and then a build your own veggie, and all were delicious. the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. their suggestions on drinks were spot on for our tastes, and the pizza came out in a very reasonable time. We'll be back! read more

a great stop in a tourist town located in a restored Victorian firehouse done with an old school baseball theme. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating the outdoor seating is perfect for people watching a great way for a relaxing afternoon. Walking by the smell amazing pizza will lure you in or take a look at the size of the pretzel. They offer both Beer , Wine and Cider. The bartender was very informative about the beverages they offer read more

First let me say that while the beer is very good, the reason I come here is because The Mitten has excellent pizza. Several speciality types as well as build your own. I love the outdoor seating area. This is a perfect place to get pizza and a beer (or 3) on a nice sunny afternoon. And it's dog friendly, so don't hesitate to bring Fido. I do wish they would improve their hours as this would be a great place to grab lunch. The only downside is that parking is at a premium in the summer. But that's true of any downtown Saugatuck establishments. read more

Met up for a double date, amazing cider selection. And the pizza flight was so yummy and unique. My Chicagoan husband so the pizza reminded him of home slice, happy camper, and paradise park! Outside and inside where a cute cottage vibe. And to top everything off our server was exceptional! Will definitely be back read more

The Mitten has the nicest staff! It's so rare these days, but that alone is a great reason to visit. I came here with friends last weekend and was happy to see it was steady but not crazy busy. We were able to snag a few benches around a fire pit to seat our group of 8 outside. Dog friendly made it the perfect spot! While there, I enjoyed a glass of their red sangria, made with their cider. It was tasty! I also ran into my old Yelp Community Manager from Indy, Britt, and her family. WHAT?! Clearly great Yelp minds think alike. If we hadn't just eaten I would have definitely delved into their food menu. Next time! read more

Jim and I love the chill vibes of this spot! It's like I'm visiting a friends backyard! We took full advantage of the unusual 60 degree weather and soaked up as much rays as possible on The Mitten's Deck. It was glorious! When you walk in you grab a seat anywhere and order at the bar. We opted for the pizza flight which was served as a whole pie hmmmm different but I liked it! Here what we got : Aloha BBQ Mediterranean Margarita Supreme The crust was well seasoned and crispy, you can tell this is their specialty! The ingredients were all fresh tasting too! I enjoyed the Aloha BBQ the most because of the sweet and savory combo. The service was also really nice, guys up front were really friendly. I'd be back to try their salads and other apps. Can't wait for summer! read more

I love Mitten Brewery and their beautiful hazy IPAs. Hop Hustle and Fog Out are our favorites! We come here from Indiana at least once a year to enjoy the beer, pizza and patio. It never disappoints. Last night we got the goat cheese and sausage pizza, the pickle breadsticks and delicious beer. The service was beyond outstanding. She was the best. She was so nice to our dogs and such a fun person! We can't wait until next summer! read more

I have found my bliss. I love good pizza and I often have trouble making up my mind when dining out because so much sounds so delicious to me. I've convinced myself that The Mitten Brewing's Pizza Flight was essentially created with me in mind. My husband and I shared a flight made up of the following delectable pizza choices: Margherita (tomato basil sauce, fresh mozzarella, Roma tomatoes, fresh basil, and hop salt), Pesto Chicken (house-made pesto, pulled chicken, red onions, seasoned artichoke hearts, sliced cremini mushrooms, and mozzarella), Field of Greens (house-made pesto, seasoned artichoke hearts, broccoli, green peppers, roasted garlic, feta, fresh basil, sliced cremini mushrooms, Roma tomatoes, and mozzarella, and Curse of the Goat (tomato basil sauce, sausage, goat cheese, fresh basil, and peppadew peppers). Neither of us had any particular favorite, they were each excellent. I'm not a beer drinker, so I was completely there for the pizza, but the gentlemen in our group enjoyed a porter and a hazy IPA (which smelled very grapefruity) to go with it, which they both enjoyed. The servers were friendly, and service was a bit slow, but we were in no rush whatsoever. The laid-back summer atmosphere was perfect after a great day of hiking in Saugatuck Dunes State Park with friends (hence why I make no apologies for all the pizza I ate). We will absolutely be back! read more

What a cozy spot with delicious food!! We stopped in and luckily got a table inside on a chilly day. It's small inside, so maybe expect a wait on peek times, but the outside patio is huge, so would be a great spot in the warmer months. We got the cheese bread, a deluxe pizza and a kids pizza. All were so good! What made the experience though was the friendly staff and Drew our server. He was so pleasant and kind to every person who walked in. Would definitely come back! read more

Best pizza in town! Love the crust Great friendly service too and good brewed beer.

A saugatuck staple! Must visit. Friendly staff, great decor and amazing pizza. Nothing more to say here folks!

We had a great pizza dinner (and giant pretzel) visit here during a recent visit to SW Michigan. It was the giant pretzel photos on Yelp that drew me in. The live, in-person pretzel did not disappoint either. We had it served up with marinara, beer cheese and mustard. I especially loved the beer cheese. The outdoor picnic space was perfect for the fall afternoon. They had a handful of picnic tables with umbrellas and a seated area around a fire pit. We couldn't have asked for a better setting. Last but not least, our two pizzas were both delicious. I was impressed that they even offered vegan cheese options. This is an especially great place if you have a mixed crowd of beer lovers and those who are more into food. Looking forward to future visits! read more

We tried this place out because they have DF cheese for their pizzas! I got vegan cheese and pepperoni and my boyfriend got the Aloha BBQ. Both were delicious :) The beers are phenomenal. Staff were so incredibly kind and we loved the outdoor seating area. We personally felt it was a bit pricey, but also had to get two separate pizzas for allergies which could be why we felt that way. read more

Great spot to get pizza and a brew. I'll be back and recommend. Country IPA was my favorite

Very reasonable kid friendly spot with a baseball theme, good pizza, and craft beer. A 12in pizza is good to split between 2-3 people. We had the Margherita ($15) and Plain Cheese ($12). You can sample the beers before choosing your pint or get a flight of beers. There is plenty of outside seating however inside seating is first come first served. Lots of hovering and jockeying for position for inside tables. read more

The Mitten Pizza is basically a pizza paradise. The staff? Friendliness level is off the charts - they're like the pizza-loving ambassadors of joy. Now, the pizza - delicious doesn't quite cut it. It's like a flavor symphony, and that crust? A crispy masterpiece. And can we talk about the beer selection? It's like they curated a beer garden in pizza heaven. The vibe? Friendlier than a golden retriever at a belly rub convention. If pizzas had a fan club, I'd be the president after this visit. The Mitten Pizza - where pizza dreams come true, and the staff makes you feel like you just joined an exclusive pizza-loving society. read more

It was a lovely afternoon in Saugatuck and my shopping was done, so it was my husband's turn for a break. We found The Mitten, a cute little house with a nice side yard full of tables and a view of the water. We had a couple of beers and ordered a pizza after seeing others so the same. Toppings on the pizza were plentiful and delicious. Great way to spend an afternoon! read more
