Snug Harbor

Great view by the water. We sat in the outdoor seating. Staff was attentive & pleasant. I ordered the red snapper & was very disappointed. The fish was grilled way too long so all you taste is char & you get 5 tiny baby potatoes & stewed tomatoes for $35. Worst fish I have had in a restaurant in a long time. My kids ordered the lobster roll & seafood pasta which they really enjoyed, so I had order envy. Drinks were good & filled timely.

Its a nice little restaurant next to the water with outside seating. It can get really busy but its busy for good reason. If you're able to get seating outside, you'll be able to enjoy view of the lake and plenty of opportunities to people watch. The lobster roll sandwich was very good and the buttery brioche bun it was served in made it taste even better. The pasta tasted very fresh and every bite was flavorful too! Its a nice place to grab lunch or dinner with a friend or date on a sunny day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Meal of Our Sailing Trip! We came with a sailing group of 11, and Snug Harbor was hands down our favorite stop! The short ribs were incredibly tender, the crab legs fresh and flavorful, and the clam chowder was rich and packed with clams — not like the kind where you can barely find any. Service was exceptional — they assigned two lovely servers to our table. We didn’t catch their names, but both were sweet, friendly, and professional, and really made us feel welcome. And the waterfront view made it all even better.

Wow. We love Snug Harbor! We landed on Snug after a quick random google search, but now I’m sure that fate wanted us to eat there last night. My cocktail? The perfect combination of sweetness and tart. My husband’s beer? Well you really can’t go wrong with a draft Oberon, so they did great with that too I guess 🤣. We were apart of a larger group, but that didn’t stop our waitresses from providing a great experience. Our servers, Maddie and Reese, were the perfect dynamic duo of cheer and personality. Before we even got to ordering our meals, they were striking up conversations about our weekend plans. My husband ordered the fish and chips and I ended up getting a steak. We thoroughly enjoyed both! Both waitresses were more than happy to answer questions about the best shopping spots in town and the perfect place to enjoy a peaceful sunset walk. I’m rambling on and on, so I’ll stop, but one thing is for certain: if you’re coming to Snug Harbor, Maddie and Reese will provide you with an excellent dining experience!

The location is excellent, right on the river, with a beautiful view of the water and pier. Unfortunately, service was quite slow—we waited a long time for drinks and the bill. I ordered a steak, which was good overall, but I didn’t enjoy the burnt crust. We went before sunset and sat on the balcony, but there was no shade or fans, so we ended up uncomfortably hot. The view makes it worth a visit, but the experience could be improved.

Longtime favorite place in Grand Haven for me, but I was disappointed with the food this time sadly. The only good thing we ordered was the burger. The service and view was still top notch. Would probably do Kirby or Notos instead.

Quality well presented food with good portions. Amazing views. A little short staffed but what restaurant isn't

We had some drinks and and appetizer. Beautiful view! Very good service. It was lovely.
