For being out in the sticks, this place is AWESOME. Most everything on the menu is a home run! Good beer &wine selection, with full bar. The wait for seating outside will always be longer.
Ada BrosierApril 13, 2016Expect to spend over $100 for 2 bloody Mary's, salmon, walleye, mussels, 2 side brussels sprouts and Brownie Sunday for dessert! It was overpriced, but very good!- Gillian HurleyNovember 15, 2012Opens at 11:30 AM on Sat/Sun. Also, meatless Mon, two for Tues, wine down Wed, taster Thurs, and happy hour specials all weekend ending with family days on Sundays – spend your whole week with us!
- Gillian HurleyAugust 29, 2012I work here, not everyone will tell you but our tall boys of PBR are just $1.50. Also, Sunday thru Wednesday Michigan beer sampler is only $5. Live music Wednesday-Sunday out on the deck.
- Glen HJuly 10, 2013Now under new management. It's really good. Clean, nice menu. Good service. The bowl of muscles is great.
Sit out on the deck! And order everything!! The food is awesome here!!
- Gillian HurleyAugust 29, 2012One more thing- hours are wrong-- now also open on Monday's at 4 and Saturday's and Sunday's at 2pm instead of 4pm.
- Chad GriffethJuly 2, 2010I had a great experience here. Ate on the deck on a beautiful night, food was great and my drink was generously poured. I would recommend this to anyone. Read more
Lexi TylerDecember 17, 2014Basically every thing is good here at the BLI . but I would really say he the fries!!- Gillian HurleyAugust 29, 2012If money is not an issue- GET THE NY STRIP. You will enjoy the best steak of your life.
Aharon BishopJuly 14, 2013You can order anything you want, but they are out of stock on all of the most common things, such as fries.
Try the stinky cheese chicken rolls...they are AMAZING. I have not ordered an entree here yet that I haven't loved.
It is a great place! But it's not Brussel sprouts, it's Brussels sprouts.
There's a really pretty girl there named rebecca, ask for her!
- Kristen HerweyerSeptember 13, 2012There are some good things on the menu. I wasn't overly impresed. It is not the best Gilmore restaurant in the collection.
- The beer in the cooler is old and skunked. Food is worse than the beer, and the service is worse than the food, which is overpriced. Oh yeah, and the proprietor is rude and unapproachable.
