Pulled pork
Meagan R.

The food was good but scary how fast it came out, my bf made a comment that all the kitchen people must be on adderall, I said it has to be precooked and microwaved . Either way we still loved the crab cakes . My margarita came with sugar on the rim and orange, I wasn't asked about either of these things, I honestly prefer nothing on the rim. But when the bill came and it was $88 we swiped our card not thinking and then saw after they charge a service fee for using a card. This place is weird.

Stale chips, burnt edges, dry meat
Cindy M.

Service is fine. Food is pretty bad, especially for the very high prices. $18 nachos were burned on the edges but came out super fast. Sour cream had hard chunks in it! We told the waitress and she brought a new cup but we were over it. One small scoop of whitefish pate that was OK but not worth $17 even if it came with what looked like a whole box of crackers. Weird and disappointing.

Fried shrimp basket
Kelsey K.

We were in the area for a vacation and we came here to celebrate one of our peoples birthday. There were 9 of us and they sat all of us together and quickly. The waitress was great. Strong customer service skills, didn't mess up our order, offered suggestions for a ketoer, etc. I wish I could remember her name. The food was meh, at best. I ordered the fried shrimp basket. On the menu it doesn't say anything about it coming with coleslaw. So I ordered a side of coleslaw. Well, it came with coleslaw. The fries and slaw were good, the shrimp was ok & the sauce it came with was very good. Everyone else just said their food was ok. Nothing special. They wouldn't let us divide our bill per couple so we did 5 people on one bill & 4 on the other. My bill had double the gratuity amount! So relieved we caught it because they would've got an extra 50$ from me. She fixed it, but over all I wouldn't come back here.

Have dogs, will travel (and Aunt Lulu)
Anita B.

Love how dog friendly this place was! They brought Molly and Oliver two bowls of cold water! The remained in their stroller but I saw dogs on leashes laying down. Food was very good as was my cocktail - Outdoor dining for us with some good music playing.

Fish and chips
Julie G.

Fantastic service from a restaurant short staffed. Everyone happy to help and grateful to be open. Right on M22 in downtown Glen Arbor. Outdoor and indoor seating. Food general pub style, sandwiches, burgers, pizza, etc. Fish and chips was good, included cod, local whitefish and walleye lots of fries. Big portion. Special for evening was Parmesan crusted whitefish with black bean, tomato and corn salsa with vegetables and mashed red skin potatoes. Fish was great but nothing else. Salsa was made with canned tomatoes not fresh and just didn't work (my view only). Potatoes lumpy not creamy and vegetables just ok. Shame as had the potential for a great dish. Prices reasonable. Parking available.

Been here many times and it never disappoints. You can't go wrong with anything you pick. My…read morepersonal favorites are the morazen and Fitzgerald. Lots of tables to sit out outside or take it to the beach! Will be back always!!

Fantastic sandwich and pizza option if you're headed to or from Sleeping Bear Dunes!…read more We came across Shipwreck Cafe after stopping for gas next door on the way to Sleeping Bear Dunes. We wanted a kid friendly option and came in for the pizza, but ended up being blown away by the massive sandwich menu! Don't be discouraged by the line - it moves FAST!!!! The young people at the register and in the kitchen are efficient and so nice!!! We arrived about half an hour before the sign says pizzas are ready, and the lovely man at the register said "sure!" when we asked if we could order a pizza. The menu has something for everyone - Including plenty of vegetarian options (I think they even had a vegan option). I loved my Griffon, and the meat eaters in our group enjoyed the SS Noronic (a BLT) and the Fitzgerald. Our kids devoured their cheese pizza! They also carry Great Lakes Co Chips, which are some of the best potato chips we've ever had. Our sandwiches were all so inventive with delicious, fresh ingredients, amazing condiments, and the most freshly baked "pretzel rolls" ever. If this place wasn't a vacation stop for us, we'd be back all the time! Our kiddos favorite part, bedsides the pizza, were the tiny plastic swords that came in our sandwiches holding them together. When they each wanted one more sword, we went back inside and the staff inside was so used to kids asking for more tiny swords that their response to "May we have two more swords?" Was "Sure! What colors?!" Very different from what the response would have been where we're from. :) We even came back later in the day for the frozen custard!!! All in all, it was a great experience with great food, great service, plenty of outdoor picnic tables under umbrellas, and something for everyone to eat.
