Just a couple short flight of stairs until you're in the cupola with great views. The space is airy and bright, and service was on point. Drinks are Grand Hotel priced ($20+) but worth it for the experience and views. I got the Somewhere in Thyme cocktail, because I had to. It was refreshing but not very strong. We also ordered the whitefish dip to share, which was one of the best whitefish dips I've had. It wasn't super smoky, so it might be more palatable to people who haven't had it before. I loved the addition of the giardiniera. Overall a very lovely experience. Do I need to go back, no, but I'm glad we got to check it out.

It's not pretentious, as you are greeted by the a member of their friendly staff as you enter. There are multiple facets to this venue, so it makes your visit exciting. I wont share any "spoiler's" so when you visit you can experience all the niceties personally. Food is fresh and menu changes occur seasonally. Tonite we only had appetizers but they were both very good. We had the Baked Brie, a puff pastry filled with creamy Brie and a jam dressing. It included a very tasty fruit and nut cracker, sliced apples and Carmel corn nuggets. Great combination of sweet and savory! We also had the Shrimp Cocktail. You get 8 very nice size shrimp, which were nicely chilled (nothing worse than warm shrimp) and cocktail sauce. The shrimp were fresh and meaty, good flavor. The staff is great. Riley did a great job taking care of us. We were also greeted by the owner John, who was visiting and talking with every table of guests. This IMO is a sign of a establishment that wants to insure their patrons are happy and enjoying their experience. We would definitely recommend giving them a try when in Cheboygan or the area.

This bar, like the rest, has the big porch ale which is the Grand Hotels signature beer from bells. It's a milder ipa like a toned down yooper ale.

And the glass of wine (Rose) I had was just lovely too. Sadly we didn't discover this outside our hotel until the very last night or we would have been regulars all week. Next time!

I believe one of the owners, or a manager was checking on guests randomly, which is always a nice thing to see however... The food is EXPENSIVE. 1/3 pound burger for $18?? Seriously? That's barely over the size of a McDonalds hamburger. A few items for $40ish and I couldn't justify spending it, if I was still going to be hungry. We kept looking around at what others were eating, and nothing appeared to be much food in front of others at all. Most of the items shown on their menu through Google, are not on their limited menu either. We were looking forward to trying it for someplace different, but it wasn't worth the money to us. We were hungry, and realized this wasn't the place to go if you were, so we nicely paid for our drinks, tipped our sweet server and quietly left. We ended up going next door to Mulligans. Again -it has a great atmosphere, the service seems to be excellent, and is a very nice place, but not for dinner unfortunately.

Out of the taco Tuesday special by 7:00. They were out of iced tea as well. There's also a very odd long mirror in the women's bathroom giving you a unique view of yourself while using the restroom.

This spot is pricy but if the food is good then that's standard Mackinac Island, but the pizza was not worth the money. The ambiance was casual dining and the service was fairly quick.

I think the Tilt'n Hilton is a staple of Hilton Beach. My husband and I come around for the summer…read moreevery few years or so, and we always find ourselves spending a lot more time at the Tilt'n Hilton than expected. Every time we've stopped by, someone greets us with a smile as we find our seats. As you get settled, someone comes by with a good drink, a steady joke or conversation and a menu... Things I've loved: - The food! The wings are fantastic, with so many different styles to choose from! We're used to having a hard time finding good vegetarian friendly fare.. not here! And in the summers, the white fish fry is perfect! Everything's definitely fresh, especially with the amount of care put into the large chunks of fish, still sweet from its freshness. The wings aren't over fried or overly buttery. No complaints. - The Onion Rings and the Cheese Stick basket. We have a strict no onion ring or fried things rule, except here. We don't walk away feeling sick because the breading is stale or too much or been sitting in the oil. And the little cheeseballs are just a surprising and delightful break from most fried Cheese arrangements. - The view. There's ample seating on the patio outside, with a great view of the marina. It's great people watching too! The park is right close by, so as kids run by to play, you can keep an eye on them. - The pool table! My dream is to learn how to hustle someone at pool... this is where I can practice. The dream may not happen for a long while, but we're getting there! - The people, the company! Everyone greets each other like old friends. Families sit out on the deck, until close, with people stopping by at tables to chat and catch up. It feels like home. It feels cozy. I love that we were there until close several times, and little kids all tired from running to the park, covered in ice cream were dozing off as parents caught up with aunties and uncles. No one had their eyes glued to their cellphones or were too busy catching up on email to catch up with each other. - The service. I don't mind that there's not someone glued to my elbow, asking at every second, are you ready? are you ready? It's paced, but not slow. It's comfortable, not rushed. We ordered wine once that we thought had turned, we felt bad complaining, but the wine wasn't charged and we drank something else. No one gave us any grief, no one accused us of lying. It's like sitting in your grandma's kitchen when your auntie asks you if you're okay. It's home-y. Things I didn't love: - The closing hour. I'm used to being in a place where things are open until at least 11pm. And it's so bright outside still when last call and food stops. I get it, it's the way of life, but I don't wanna go back yet! - The bathroom sign. Still managed to get lost. Tried to walk into the kitchen...
