Reviews Summary

Diners rave about Rusted Spoke Brewing Co. for its friendly service, extensive craft beer selection, and delicious comfort food, especially the burgers and BBQ options. While most experiences are positive, some reviews mention loud music and occasional service inconsistencies, though these are not the norm.

"We were greeted by the manager who seated us. Our server was Chloe, and we commented how much we liked the Rusted Spoke Brewing shirt she was wearing. She took our drink order and then began to search for shirts in our sizes since the new season ones had not come in. Our food was served quickly and was very tasty. Chloe was great and checked on us frequently. The manager even made a trip to our table to make sure we had everything we needed. We definitely felt they appreciated our business. A great dinner and excellent service. We will be back !!"

Brian Switzer

"This bar and grill was phenomenal. Great service, delicious food and a wide selection of beers and cocktails. The server we had was attentive, kind, gave recommendations and made sure we never had an empty glass. The food was delicious, from fish tacos, spicy chicken sammies, to steak Gorgonzola bites. Plenty of parking and even though they were busy, there was no wait for a table."

Baylee Wilson

"Our server was one of the best we have ever had. She was welcoming, attentive and high spirited. I had the fish taco daily special. It was pretty good. It came with chips and salsa but I did not touch those. My husband had a burger and fries (not pictured) which he loved. Our drinks were decent.

Tables were grouped to seat 6 unless you sat at the bar.

Would recommend if you are in the area."

My 7 Favorite Restaurants To Experience In Mackinaw City

Rusted Spoke Brewing Company offers 20 taps from Michigan breweries, so they designed their menu to compliment the brews. For example, their award-winning chili pairs wonderfully with their brews. Unfortunately, when I visited, it was the middle of summer and not on the menu, but I have heard rave reviews.
