Where to Dine and Drink on Mackinac Island
"Pony up, and get yourself inside Fort Mackinac, the oldest building in the state. If authentically costumed soldiers, the sound of cannons firing, and the call of “Mess Hall” on the bugle aren’t enough to lure you up that steep hillside, perhaps one of the island’s best kept culinary secrets will? Did you know that the string of yellow patio umbrellas known as the Fort Mackinac Tea Room is managed by the Grand Hotel? And that they serve milkshakes using Guernsey Farms Dairy ice cream? Nab a table overlooking the freighters and ferries from above, and order that chocolate shake. You’ve earned it after all that climbing." - Stacey Brugeman
