Ali's Upnorth Food And Spirits

I mostly get takeout here cuz I work two jobs but the food has been great, the price has been right, and the staff has been friendly! I do eat inside on occasion and it's always been clean. The pub is spacious enough to accommodate many guests so don't turn away just because the parking lot is full. Park next door at the old party store, there's room for you. My mother calls it her happy place! The bar is about 24 feet long with a lot of comfy stools, a footrest throughout, and the adult drink you're looking for ?

Now called, The Four One 's Landing. A bit confusing as we pulled up but several cars came as well. Comfortable inside booths or tables. We were greeted and immediately felt welcomed. It was nice as well as the have a good day! as we left. Our waitress Jasmine was flawless and had multiple tables at once. I ordered the homemade chicken noodle soup and was surprised by the delicious hand cut noodles. Delicious! My husband ordered the patty Melt. It was cooked to order with grilled oinions. He appreciated that the bread was not grilled into a greasy mess. Would definitely return. Jasmine mention their new cook was responsible for the fabulous food which came out fast and hot! Kudos!

I 've eaten here a few times and it 's always been good food. Tonight it wasn 't even edible. I ordered the Walleye, pan fried, with vegetables and the baked potato. The fish was literally swimming in either water or oil/mix, and tasted 'horrible '. Vegetables were freeze dried and thrown under a broiler and potato sent to table luke warm with ONE of those McDonald Tsp butter packs and it was frozen. Only thing that 's changed; is i 've heard, there are recent new owners. The service is always impeccable but i gave that a 2 because the server clearly knew the meal was not up to customer satisfaction and never asked. I paid my $32 bill- sent entire plate back and will never return. Sad, because these small towns need good restaurants.

We stopped in on our way back home since we were stopping for coffee and pickles and were pleasantly surprised! The service was excellent, Lisa tended to our every need! The food was piping hot, extremely fresh and presented very nicely (unfortunately we were too hungry to take pictures). I got the Cod dinner, pan-fried with a side salad/homemade ranch and sweet potato tots, my mom got a Michigan salad and husband got chicken tenders and fries. Chicken was tender, breading on the fish and chicken was thin and could tell they were homemade, ranch was excellent. Fries and tots were perfectly fried. They also allowed us to sit on the outside patio with my 2 dogs and drink our coffee from next door. She even made sure to bring them ice water because it was hot out. Vegetarian options: Not many vegetarian options, outside of the usual deep-fried apps, pasta or salad but they seem like a place that would honor special requests.

Great burgers and a really nice place to sit and have a drink.
