"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 newer entrant that polished an older 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 fare akin to the gastropub craze. Think homemade meatloaf or pan-fried Great Lakes perch with capers, lemon, and white wine." - Stacey Brugeman
