In fact, they're all quite worth the wait. I get it; it's the island. You may be hangry because you tried other places, but they just didn't cut it, maybe. This place does, though there may be a bit of a wait. It's normal to have to wait a bit when there are visitors on the island, so if you can endure, I think you'll enjoy what you get. Outdoor seating is spacious, and there's a bar area if you need a drink while you wait. I grabbed the Dagwood because I was in the mood for a big ole sammich. It was great, and washing it down with a refreshing IPA hit the spot. The weather was a bit warm out there, so the combination was really a win. There's an assortment of outdoor games, or you can stroll around the various places nearby, like Jackson Harbor, the Maritime Museum, or hop on a boat and go to Rock Island afterwards and take a hike to the lighthouse. They have Wi-Fi, but in most places on the island, your connection is going to be hit-or-miss.

There are many unique and attractive restaurants on Washington Island. But hey, sometimes you just…read morewant a pizza. This is it. We drove from out hotel to make an order. I guess we could have called; but exploring the island is part of the fun being there. You can dine in or carry out. Be careful getting to the place, as it's easy to get tangled up with the line to the ferry. The kid who waited on us was smiling and pleasant. The pie took about 15 minutes and we got it piping hot. We went back to the Hotel Washington and sat at a front yard table and enjoyed our pizza listening to red eyed vireos. Made our car smell like pizza for two days. The pizza itself was okay. A lot of cheese and toppings. They certainly don't scrimp. Washington Island is a nice place to spend a few days. Sometimes you just want a pizza. You can get a decent one here.

We stopped here on a rainy Saturday for lunch. The main bar/restaurant was closed but the outdoor…read morearea was open. We had a dog with us and they had one table that was kind of outdoor/indoor so we sat there as dogs weren't allowed in the bar area. They were training some new people who were learning English which was a little bit challenging. They did a good job though and the owner/manager (?) came over to double check the orders. We ordered cheese curds which were actually really good. We all agreed that we'd come back just for the curds. My kids had a chicken tender basket. Pretty standard. I had the whitefish fill sandwich. It was just ok. The sauce didn't have much flavor and definitely could have used way more dill. I ended up using ranch to give it something. My friend had a fish basket and said it was alright too.

To the staffs credit, they did tell us that the wait would be close to an hour. Many establishments…read moredon't tell you that upfront. So we waited and had a fish basket and fish sandwich. The bun, and the fish sandwich was remarkable, very soft. Unfortunately, the fish was average. Needs more seasoning. I assumed the tarter sauce is made in house but it was virtually mayo with a few diced pickles. Not a tarter I'd expect at a place that sells mostly fish. The coleslaw wasn't bad but odd. I don't believe I've ever had one that's diced rather than shredded. That too needs a bit more seasoning. Overall, would not recommend.

The single star is for the sweet young man (possibly age 16-19?) that was extremely apologetic…read moreseveral times. If it wasn't for him this establishment would get 0 stars. We stopped in on a Monday with a large group of 12. The place was slightly busy with about 5-6 tables, including a larger group of 6-8 in the back that was eating. The kind young man greeted us and told us he could seat us separately. We were not happy with that option, but with many places closed Monday afternoon - we decided that would be okay. After realizing the tables in the back were moved together, I very politely approached the young man along with a second older man (longer mixed grey hair, who was feverishly writing something down). I politely said, "excuse me, do you mind if we put together the tables like the one on the back?" Before I even finished the sentence the older man quickly turned around and literally screamed as loud as he could "NO WE DONT DO THAT!" Then turned right around and started writing. I was so taken aback - that I walked back to our table and sat. The young man came over clearly embarrassed by what happened and apologized saying the other man was having a bad day. We sat there for 5 more minutes. Finally my husband went and grabbed menus. After waiting a bit longer, we decided to leave. That man left me feeling completely uncomfortable. He appeared very angry and we were just not comfortable being there. Give that sweet kid a pat on the back - and the other man - wow - I have no words

I'm going to give Bread and Water another 5 stars this year for 2 reasons:…read more1. Cherry pie is delicious. Plenty of cherries, flaky and melt in your mouth crust. Clearly made right here with love. 2. Great job w Covid-19 precautions: hand washing station, clean bathrooms, all food served in paper board (not styrafoam) to go containers. The most together food service ive seen this year on Washington Island in terms of being hygienic. Sandwiches are straight forward and tasty. Nothing fancy, imho. Don't know about the burgers, we ate those at the Albatross where I think any place on the island would have stiff competition to beat how tasty those are! Don't let the shaby exterior of Bread and Water fool you, food is solid.

I had the the mountain BLT with chips and my wife asked for a simple grilled chicken breast because she was having stomach problems, but the communication between the cook and the waitress (written on paper that we saw) produced a greasy grilled chicken breast. The one waitress was not able to handle the requests from three tables inside and people sitting on the porch. The mission of the restaurant is to serve some operation within the Methodist Church, but a classier approach is needed to assure the customers that once you get past "Bread and Water" there is competence in the kitchen.
