Loved TJ's just what we were looking for! Great lunch for our family. Awesome pizza and service. More kid friendly than listed. read more

Amazing!! Food, staff, drink!! All superb!! Recommend and would come all the way back just to eat here!

We've returned multiple times for the tamales, the tomato/turkey/pesto sandwich (the "Tuscana"), and the BLT. The Michigan-made potato chips, seasoned with a special blend of spices, are also addictive. The place can get a bit loud during prime times, and the 4-top table in the back, near the bathroom door, isn't the most optimal. Otherwise, this is one of the best spots for casual and reasonably priced meals in downtown Manistee. read more

Came to eat here when on the road with the family, great food and even greater service. Had a 6 year old, a 3 year old and an infant, we were served fast and acomidated us all well for being a pub. read more

Dropped in with a group of 14. They were creative in accommodating us and the food and service were excellent!! Definitely recommend!

I was torn between a 4 and 5, but let me break this down for you. Stoli dirty martini with homemade blue cheese stuffed olives was $5.50! Compared to Blue Fish where it is $10! Avocado turkey BLT on swirled rye was AMAZING! Michigan made chips were awesome. Atmosphere - perfect. Definitely the place to go in Manistee. read more

We had Meatballs ,whitefish dip,Alfredo ,all American. Best of all was the Pub Prime Rib soup. Service was excellent and the place was packed on a Friday night. Excellent crowd and fun atmosphere. This was our 2nd or 3rd visit,who's counting? We will come back read more

Just a great corner bar with a boutique hotel above. Definitely will be back. Lori the bartender is awesome.

Food good, service good, but space a little limited. I had the beef, potato, and carrot bowl which was very good and filling.

I rate this a 4 because of its fun pub atmosphere. Not gluten free friendly very limited options, but that is not what it is known for. Great place to grab a drink with friends. read more

The location is convenient, and the ambiance is nice, if a little loud for my taste. The clientele seems to skew towards baby boomers. Service is prompt and friendly; we had no trouble getting drinks refilled. The tap list (12 options) is solid, and features a lot of regional favorites. Prices are quite reasonable; $10-12 for most entrees. The food is underwhelming. The whitefish dip was heavy on the cream cheese and light on the fish, and served with what appeared to be store-bought crackers. The quesadilla had very little cheese (but lots of meat). The "Asian Noodle Bowl" (I should have been leery when they lumped half of the world's cuisines into one adjective) featured vegetables that had been cooked almost to mush, and noodles that were still a minute or two shy of being al dente. The broth was simple, but nicely flavored. Vegetarians will find themselves with few options unless they ask for the meat to be left out of existing dishes. I've had the pizza there before, and it was better than the noodle bowl. I'll go again (there aren't a lot of options in Manistee), and I'll stick with the pizza. read more

So I don't like giving negative reviews unless completely necessary... so we walk in and seat ourselves, there are only 2 waiters in the restaurant. We were given waters and that's it. 15 minutes walk by, 4 people came in right after us were seated, given drinks and had their food by the time we just got up and left. We were basically sat in the corner and forgotten about read more

We had excellent service and the food was delicious. It is on the smaller size, but it was a fun pub atmosphere. The menu has a wide variety to find just what you want to eat. The portions were not huge either. The bar has a big selection of wines and beers, with plenty of mixed drinks as well. It is located right in downtown area of Manistee with street parking. read more

The wait we were told was 20-30 mins and waited almost an hour but the food was good. Apps are a little expensive though. Food came out at a decent time and the chicken fetichini was really good. read more

Great food and awesome service, not super pricey either. My only issue is how small it is, you really rub elbows with the people next to you when it gets a little busy. So much so that it kinda makes it hard to move around. But if you go around lunchtime it's normally not to busy. It has a very homey feel to it and comfortable atmosphere. read more

Not impressed. Food was nothing special, UNFRIENDLY atmosphere. Nothing was fresh, all from a freezer. This WAS the bar/restaurant for great food and atmosphere many years ago. Has steadily gone downhill since the most recent owner took over. The location will bring in the tourists, but the locals don't recommend it. read more

The food and service were spot on! My husband and I both had a wrap and found the food quality to be very fresh! Our server was extremely attentive, but not over kill. She was very friendly and welcoming! read more

Home of the best club sandwich that I've ever had....ever! Very busy during lunch time! There was one waitress that worked so hard to keep things running smoothly. Patrons appreciated her strong work ethic to make lunch so enjoyable. We will definitely return to TJs Pub!!! read more

We went on a Tuesday and had the appetizer trio; spinach dip, meatballs and mini pork tacos... everything was so yummy! The bartender, Vicki, was wonderful! Saw her making one of their signature drinks "The Amethyst" and asked what it was, she let me sample! SOO GOOD. Definitely recommend. Also went on a short smoke break and checked out the lobby of The Ramsdell (hotel attached to TJ's)... beautiful place! Hope to stay soon. The gal working at the desk of The Ramsdell even made a point to come down to TJ's and make sure our food was perfect. Great customer service, great food... absolutely 100% recommend! Thank you, TJ's!!!! read more

Really good sandwiches and draft beer selections. Check them out. I had the Cubano sandwich and the only piece of feedback I would say is I wish they flattened the bread more. read more

Server was a bit rude and slow and acted like she wanted us out of there. Wasn't the best value. White pizza was good.

It's got great food and service. Nice vibes but a bit expensive for two people. Would love to go back the TJ's sandwich was really good!!!

This pub occupies a nice new-looking space in the corner of a building. However, there is no tap beer - all bottles. The menu is limited and there are no entrees. The sandwiches were fine but nothing really special. Overall this place has a feel of just getting started. There is room for improvement and perhaps it will rise to the occasion. read more

Nice Gluten Free Accomadation! Our camping party arrived here frigid and tired one afternoon after deciding to walk into town from the campsite. It was a lovely atmosphere to settle into. Its sort of in a half-basement, pleasantly dark and cozy. The waiters were very kind and even brewed us a fresh pot of coffee. The fare is pretty standard pub-type food - sandwiches, burgers, etc. We got some lovely tamales as an appetizers, which was nice. I ordered a reuben without the bread, because I can't eat gluten. They were nice enough to put the corned beef and sauerkraut in a little ramekin and bake it off with the cheese on top, like a mini reuben casserole! That was quite above and beyond, and I really appreciated it. The price was reasonable, the beer selection was outstanding. The atmosphere is very friendly and amiable, lots of locals hanging out and enjoying themselves. They're aren't a whole lot of options in manistee to begin with, but this is probably the best combination of food, atmosphere, and price going. read more

TJs was ok. We found it wondering through downtown manistee and thought we would check it out. Service was really good. Food was pretty good, just not very much. Both of us left there feeling like we had just had a very light lunch. Which in all honesty is fine but not for the prices we paid. $8 for a wedge salad that is smaller than a side wedge salad at other places is a little much. read more

Just went here for lunch. First timer. Beef Gyro was fantastic, my boyfriend loved the Italian sandwich and my son loved his custom personal pizza. Must have been retro day, all the servers were dressed like they just did a Jane Fonda workout video and the music too. Good atmoshphere. Reasonable pricing. Our waitress was slow and a bit forgrtful. Had to wait forever for our check because the computer was down. Apparently nobody knew how to use basic math. But we would gladly go back. read more

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and unique delicious food for a VERY reasonable price. Also good drinks that were reasonably priced as well. read more

Kim is the best! Great menu knowledge and recommendations. Solid Bloody Mary as well. We will be back!

Great food, great service, great beers! TJs is a must go restaurant in Manistee. the ambiance is wonderful and you instantly feel at home. Can't wait to come back! read more

Tjs has great draft beers on tap and excellent food. Being a foodie I've bee to many places, but this is a hidden gem in my eyes. Bravo.

We love TJ's. They offer great food (we've eaten many lunches there) and they have a great selection of beer. This is a great place to eat.

Read the reviews on the prime rib soup so I had to try it! It did not disappoint- loved every spoonful. Lunch was excellent as was my Bloody Mary. Hubby loved his Cuban Sandwich. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to go back on our next visit to MI. read more

Fantastic service and atmosphere. The food is fresh different and all from scratch. Very fun flavors and so not ordinary. Will definitely be back for its out of this world. read more

My husband and I stopped her for lunch and had the CLT sandwich, which was a BLT with avocado. Very yummy, nice European pub like atmosphere set in a basement near the Ramsdale. read more

We had a rainy day in Bear Lake so went to see a movie in Manistee. We hit up TJ's Pub after the movie: good beer selection, nice variety on tap. The bar tender was a cool guy, took care of us. I ordered the buffalo wings. They had a nice kick to them and were cooked really well...no deep fry. Baked so they were really moist and fell right off the bone. The white fish dip is really good too. Will definitely be back! read more

This was a perfect stop and meal as we were just passing trough! The food was really really good! Meatballs were homemade and delicious!

Whitefish Dip is incredible. The garlic lemon shrimp and chicken quesadillas were yummy as well. Cute little place. You can tell its a pub and I love the charm it has. Highly recommend! read more

TJ's is a neat little place. My family and I ate a late lunch there. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. We ordered some hot sandwiches, a salad, and the baguette appetizer. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. The food won't fill you up as they seem to focus on quality rather than quantity. Nice beer selection on tap. read more

A nice little restaurant and bar. Good food and service. The Bruschetta was awesome.

The service was great, the food was great, the ambience was great. I'm happy we stopped in and you should try the BBQ Sandwich and Texas Chili - Awesome! read more
