I have found it. The burger. The one you tell your friends about. The one that lives rent-free in your brain forever. The one you’d cross cities—no, walk 500 miles—just to experience again. They call it the Shrek Burger, and let me tell you… this thing is not a meal, it’s a legend. We’re talking a MASSIVE, borderline-unhinged stack of perfection: a juicy burger piled high with tender pulled pork, drenched in BBQ sauce, topped with crispy fried onions, FRIED CHEESE (yes, you read that right), and just the right kick from jalapeños. I skipped the coleslaw, but honestly? This thing didn’t need a single extra thing to be absolutely life-altering. You know that episode of How I Met Your Mother where Marshall spends years chasing the perfect burger? The one he dreams about? The one that ruins all other burgers for him? Yeah. This is that burger. Every bite had me questioning every other burger I’ve ever eaten. Like… where have you been all my life? Why did I settle for less? Who hurt me? I would absolutely walk 500 miles (and 500 more) just to fall down at the door of this place and eat this burger again. 10/10. No notes. I will be thinking about this for years.

Seated promptly, my wife had the Banh Mi sandwich and said it was great. I have the smoked Mac n cheese which was also very good. And we started with the pork nachos which you can't go wrong with!

Such a great place I have eaten here both days this week that we used the airport in Traverse!!! Day flying in and out to visit Mackinaw Island. BEST BURGER, haystack onion rings, mushrooms, bacon with blackened burger!!!! AWESOME AWESOME!! Onion rings were crunchy and onion didn't pull out on first bite!! The Burnt end special with asparagus, lemon aoli and balsamic vinegar was another unique sandwich that was absolutely awesome!! See picks for a delight and visit this place and have a great beer on tap!!! Will not be disappointed for sure!!!

Burgers and customizability was just what we needed. Our server, who worked at the bar was awesome, helpful, and even gave us strawberry puree to add to our ginger ale.....it was a hit. (Wish I remembered her name) Great job!

The atmosphere here very much feels like a tavern. However a tavern with a welcoming feel to it. I ordered the Shrek Burger ($22). The 1/2 pound burger is topped with Fried Cheese, Fresh Jalapeño, Pulled Pork, Cole Slaw, Haystack Onions, Bourbon BBQ Sauce. The burger was very good with a few caveats. The pulled pork is very average and doesn't add anything to the burger. The fried cheese was very good and did add to thd burger. The bourbon bbq sauce was meh and didn't add much. However the meat itself is excellent and I think a plainer burger would have been better. The fries that came with the burger were very good. I also ordered a Chocolate Shake and it was fantastic. the service was very good and everyone was very friendly. Overall a solid 4 star review. Would I return? Absolutely. Definitely for the shakes and I very much believe a simpler burger would have been better.
