- C JAugust 23, 2015Pleasant surprise! Great service / friendly staff, and for roughly the price of one dinner at Jamesport, we had 2 drinks and 2 meals. Free self-serve popcorn, too!
- What a nice addition to Ludington (even if we didn't need a bar) I love getting my favorite brews from around Michigan and supporting this small business. The live music is always great too.
Justin LockeJune 2, 2017Great service and Michigan beer - connected to Barley and Rye and the Irish Bar. Never have to leave the building and can bar hop
Christopher DunnJanuary 2, 2014Friendly place, so if you're not sure what to order, just ask a patron. Almost anyone will be willing to help you find just the right drink.- Brian KucajSeptember 5, 2014This place is the best in Ludington for live music and specialty beers and cocktails they serve food too
Craig HutcheonSeptember 7, 2014Amazing beers on tap. They only carry Michigan beers from alp over the state.
If its your first time at the Mitten and don't know what to order, ask the people with mugs.- Alyssa BroekemaJune 21, 2013Order to go food from the Sportsman and bring it on over, all the cool kids hang out here
- Best place to stop for a great Michigan Beer after a hike at Ludington State Park
Just a get place to chill out and expand your beer palette.
Lisa BarrOctober 3, 2014Great drinks, but the food was sub par! Too much dry bread with very little bland dry pulled pork!
