Where to Dine and Drink on Mackinac Island
"Visitors to Mackinac Island could spend an entire week eating at only the historic taverns up and down Main street and still never get to them all. From “The Mustang,” which claims to be “Michigan’s most historical tavern” to Patrick Doud’s Irish Pub, a brand new entrant in a freshly polished old space, there is no shortage of dining rooms where wood-paneled walls, tin ceilings, and vintage light fixtures harken back to an era where cars weren’t outlawed — they simply didn’t exist. One of the best of the bunch? Millie’s on Main. Servers clad in smart black-and-white gingham shirts bring slightly elevated pub fair akin to the gastropub craze. Think house-made meatloaf or panfried Great Lakes perch with capers, lemon, and white wine." - Stacey Brugeman
