We had a very good time with friends, Food is great!!! Pizza, ham sandwiches, everything!

If you're looking for a hole in the wall spot with good food and prices, look no further. We stopped in and loved the atmosphere. Both got burgers and fries - very good. Nice dive bar vibe. If ever back in that area will stop again. read more

Zimmy's Tavern - a car parked outside - Burgers Near Me - Union, Michigan

See all

Food is tavern food and mostly deep-fried. Service is great with very friendly staff and ambience is a lake style very casual tavern bar motif. A fun, friendly clientele suitable for non-serious guests. Will I go back....sure, when I don't want to eat healthy! :) read more

I visited on a Monday night. My plan was to get a sandwich. I was informed they were doing a special on the spaghetti and meatballs. So I decided to try it. Wow, it was probably the best spaghetti I have ever had. The waitress said it was the family recipe. The food was hot, fresh and delicious. The service was spot on. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck on a beautiful warm evening. Must try the Spaghetti. read more

I have this place a rating of two stars only because of the Zimmy's Bloody Mary are the best I have had in years. The atmosphere is that of a lake side bar. I do not recommend this place after the service we received and probably will not go back. And I really really wanted to like this place. The pizza was nothing to write home about. The crust tasted like it was frozen, it had that freezer burn taste to it, toppings were slightly over priced, but not crazy over priced. Service was the biggest issue. It took 10 minutes for our drink order, and the server only brought my beer, and not my wife's cherry coke. That came 25 minutes later, yes 35 minutes to get a cherry coke. The server actually had to come back and re-ask my wife's drink order. Would have loved to tried the onion rings, we did order them but the server failed to bring them. I suggest you pay in cash, as you get the order ticket to use to pay the bill, and it looks as if a drunk chicken ran across it. read more

Met here to meet up with some old friends. Service was super slow, and pretty rude. Food was pretty terrible too. Never got a drink menu and regular menus took forever to get too. We got asked to leave immediately after we paid because there was a wait? We spent MAYBE 15 minutes out of almost an hour with food in front of us, and drinks didn't come out until then either. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch at the recommendation of a friend. The Olive Burger was really good, the beer was ice cold - very nice. Huge side if crispy fries. Table service was fast and friendly - I told her we were in a time crunch to get to the airport and she was very accommodating!! Prices were very good - I'll be back!! read more

Zimmy's Tavern - We haven't even made it to the food yet. Looking forward to it after their incredible Bloody Mary. - Burgers Near Me - Union, Michigan

First time visiting last night. Bartender and wait staff were very rude. Left before ordering food or drinks. Bartender yelled at us and called us f....ing a..holes as we walked out the door. What a dump!!!! read more

Zimmy's Tavern - Six piece chicken tender and tater tots with honey mustard. - Burgers Near Me - Union, Michigan

Walked out because of very rude waitstaff. Asked where to sit and waitstaff said I'm busy.

This place had good live music when we came on a Sunday. Our waitress had a bad attitude, which sucked. The food was really good. The ride to get here was beautiful. I'll be back for sure! read more

Zimmy's Tavern - The menu - Burgers Near Me - Union, Michigan

We were playing at George's one night and some college kids had rented a lake house up the road. They stopped in to hear us play for a bit and went over to see what was up at Zimmy's. They came back 5 minutes later. They said when they walked in to Zimmy's, they were asked if they'd just left George's. They said yes and were told they were not welcome at Zimmy's. They tried to explain they were from out of town and just renting a lake house for the weekend, but still they were told to leave. I had heard there was some kind of a stupid rift between Zimmy's and George's, but to take it out on unsuspecting customers is both childish and unprofessional. I've not ever been in Zimmy's. I won't ever be in Zimmy's and I make sure to pass on this story to everyone who asks me about bars in Union. read more

Let me tell you this place is a home run! From Chicago to Cassopolis Mi this place not only has great bar food the customer service is 10 +!!!! The servers always have a smile on their faces, our drinks were never empty, food was soooo good but we will be back again because of the service, you dont see that any more, the ladies who work so hard to take care of the customers are the reason we will be back! Can't wait to try the bloody Mary's and coney dogs! read more

Where do I start.... This place right here!!! Amazing atmosphere. Wonderful drinks, food and staff. My fiancé have the burger and said it was really good. I have the sweet chili shrimp and tots , which was great. If you ever anywhere near this place it's worth the trip. They celebrating the 75th anniversary. Let's help them make it the best year yet... read more

Nice place with good bar food. They also serve breakfast with great Bloody Marys. The burgers are big and flavorful and the staff is fun and friendly. It's a fun place to meet friends and hangout. The bar area is well stocked and all the prices are really reasonable. read more

Zimmy's Tavern - Best Bloody Mary ever - Burgers Near Me - Union, Michigan

Always good. I local treasure everyone loves coming to Zimmys for the food and great cocktails

GREAT... little bar in our small town. Good food and drinks and everyone makes you feel welcome. JUST like Cheers!!!!!!

This place is fire!, my boyfriend and I were driving, just to drive and found this little Tavern along the way, and for how reasonably priced the food is, the quality is amazing! Plus our waitress is a real gem! 10/10, would come back and bring more! read more

Zimmy's is great. Being from Elkhart, just south of the Michigan border and close to Union, I used to hit up this place because it was the best kept secret dive in the greater Michiana area. Zimmy's is tucked away on a lake in the middle of nowhere in Union Michigan. Great time for some cheap shots, fun live music, and some dirty dancing w/ the local girls. Etown lacked a truly great dive like this one. One day I will make it back to relive the glory days. read more

Great service, good food & friendly waitresses. Love going there! They have excellent bands on Thursday nites and Sunday afternoon. Owner is friendly and greets customers. Go there and enjoy the Zimmy experience! read more

My wife and I love to take little road trips up to Zimmyville every once in a while. Always great service. Burgers and sandwiches are great, beer's cold, and if you stand at the bar (no bar stools here!) you'll find the regulars very friendly. Well worth the trip! read more

Great option for the area. Friendly staff and very good food. Good variety on menu. All my friends love the Friday perch special. I'm addicted to the meatball sandwich. Can get really crowded at dinner time, but that's what beer is good for, right? If you go expecting to have a couple drinks while waiting to be seated and sitting down to some simple tasty food, you'll be fine. Good for groups 2-6. Okay for kids, but better for adults. read more

Great food, great value, occasional love music that is pretty good. Great atmosphere...lake bar. The only reason I don't give them 5 stars, occasionally they are BUSY and the service can be slow...likely need to staff a bit better when they're that busy...but once I saw two tables seated after us finish their meals before we received ours (this is not the norm). VERY friendly service. read more

Ahhh one of the best places left around the union Michigan lake areas. Food is always good. The service iss always good. Places gets packed so don't plan on a fast in and out. By far our favorite local place. read more

We love Zimmy's have been going up there since I was 18. Lee is a great guy. Love Thursday's $2 burgers and good music! Love you guys!! The Van Dusen's Kevin and Carol read more

Hubby and I went for our 1st visit. I had a sausage pizza and hubby had the perch. With all the good reviews of the pizza, I was really looking forward to it. The perch was fantastic, the cheesy noodles not really good. The sausage on the pizza was very crumbled and bland. I like pieces of sausage on a pizza, not crumbled sausage. Service was great and we will return to try other items on menu. read more

Made my wife so mad we didn't even stay any The most rude and worst waitress I have ever met

The one, the only, Zimmy's. Many places have come and gone since I've been coming here 30 years ago but this is the only place that's survived. It hits the mark for your local lake community bar & grill. read more

If you haven't experienced this place you have missed out. Outstanding staff. Food is great and it is a fun place to take a break. You don't need to go only in the summer it is fun year round. We love to come here and will continue as long as we can. All the regulars are very friendly. Get out and take a ride. It takes us about 45 minutes to get there and it is worth the trip. Diana read more

Zimmy's has the look and the feel of an old time lake tavern. The Zimmy burger is their signature offering. Zimmy's can get pretty noisy when the place is full (which is often). But that is because people come with friends and have fun. So that should tell you something. read more

Great and tasty meatball sandwich! Staff is very friendly. After your first time there they will remember your name. Many other great bar food choices. This is where the locals go. The Stromboli sandwich was the best. read more

This is a small , but lively little pub. The tavern is a gathering place for locals and lake goers alike. A loud and festive atmosphere can be found here where the beer flows freely at the only standing bar I've seen. There are tables for diners who can order from a limited selection of burgers, sandwiches, and fried fish. The food is average, the service is adequate, but the strong suit of this establishment is the local atmosphere. The tavern has a long standing reputation and tradition as a "The" place nestled near these little lakes. It was nice...not great, but nice. The food value was on par with most bar food...nothing special in regards to the board of fare. I would recommend stopping by just to claim you have been to the "infamous" Zimmy's Tavern. read more

Always a great time and great atmosphere! When you walk in and they know what to bring you thats service. Great times in Zimmyville!!!!

It's Zimmyville... It's a classic!! It's a great place to meet friends, grab a bite and just hang out. Food specials, drink specials daily...live music on weekends. It's a fun place. read more
