    The food is always cooked perfectly. The staff is super friendly, too. We usually get take out now…read morebecause I have some medical issues that I can't sit up in a regular chair for long without my pain getting worse We order all the time from them and we are never disappointed!

    Jasper Ridge Brewery feels like it should be a solid sit-down brewery experience in Ishpeming, but…read morethe execution across the board did not match expectations. On the food side, I ordered a Reuben Melt. The sandwich came out unevenly heated, with the corned beef leaning dry in parts and the rye bread slightly over-toasted on one side. The balance of sauerkraut and sauce felt inconsistent, which made the overall flavor feel flat rather than cohesive. It was edible, but not well executed. Service was slow and lacked structure. There was a noticeable delay in initial table attention, and once the order was in, there was very little communication or follow-up. The pacing of the meal felt disorganized, like the kitchen and front of house were not fully in sync. The ambiance does not really elevate the experience either. The space has the layout of a brewery-style restaurant, but it comes across more chaotic than inviting, with noise carrying unevenly and the dining area feeling a bit worn rather than maintained in a way that enhances comfort. Overall, this was a disappointing visit. The food was poorly balanced, service was slow and inattentive, and the atmosphere did not make up for the gaps in execution.

    Very cool neighborhood brewery featuring live music on weekends and 3 food trucks to choose from. A…read moregroup of us came here on Saturday night and this place was hopping! The inside and patio were packed with happy people enjoying beer and music. There's barely any room in the rooftop. There are 3 food trucks but one of them was closed (egg roll truck). We were able to order some delicious burgers and German pretzels from the other two food trucks. Longer wait due to the crowd but to be expected. Beer was excellent! Pro tip- try to find street parking if you can. Otherwise it's $10 in the private lot across the street. It gets very busy on weekends.

It's a beautiful view of the lake and has a sunset point. It was very windy and the lake appeared to be an ocean. Anyway, back to the brewery. The brewery was only a short distance from what I suppose is it's namesake. There was a group of about six musicians playing a variety of music which I assumed to be Irish (Gaelic?) We lucked out getting two of the three bar seats. The bar area is pleasantly rustic and we really enjoyed our custom sampler of five, maybe six beers (I forget). My wife and I ordered a completely different set. All were excellent. When ordering, I failed to notice that one contained habanero peppers. I noticed my error on the first sip, but enjoyed it. Great place to go for some delicious on-site brews. Oh, they have a membership where you buy your own pottery-like mug. They are close to 1000 mugs and hung from the ceiling, on the wall, and in back rooms. They are numbered on the bottom. Very cool place.
