KNOT JUST A BAR TWO LOCATIONS: OMENA AND BAY HARBOR Looking for a challenge this summer? Knot Just A Bar has a beer club for their guests: once a guest drinks all the beers on the list, their name is printed on the ceiling of the restaurant! With a casual and familyfun atmosphere, the waterfront restaurants both serve up delicious seafood chowder, perch cones, and a ridiculously good carrot cake, among others. Their full service bar has 8 tap handles, with over 70 different beers featuring local, craft and national brands. Specialty drinks, like their Raspberry Mule and Leelanau Lemonade made with Local Cherry Bounce, are enjoyed by many while watching boats pass by on a hot summer day. The Omena location overlooks the stunning Omena Bay, while the Bay Harbor location has spectacular views of the bustling Lake Marina.

The magnificence of the waterfront views on Dudley’s Deck at The Pier Restaurant in Harbor Springs can’t be beat! As the only waterfront restaurant in Downtown Harbor Springs, it is quite literally “on the water.” The Pier serves a busy, year round clientele, with the busiest day of the year being America’s Birthday, July 4th. It is on that day that they serve over 6,000 bottles of beer to a red, white, and blue crowd.
