Welcoming tavern by the river (with an old covered bridge across the road) that is a local favorite. Great stocked bar with a good menu. The grilled cheese with bacon and BLT sub hit the spot. The lady tending the bar was friendly and helpful. Glad we stopped by for lunch.

Stopped here for lunch on a motorcycle run. Great atmosphere. Service was a little slow. Need a couple more people service food. Had a few large groups of bikers on the run and it took a while to be served. Everything else was awesome!

It is a beautiful place in a beautiful area and they are very welcoming! They are self service via order your food at the food window and the beverages at the bar. Food is brought to your table and delicious! We took our desert on the patio listening to the band. Thank you for a very pleasant experience!

Great spot to watch the game! Great food that is reasonably priced. Service was excellent! Mercedes greeted us when we came in .. made us feel very welcome even though we were not from the area. Loved the live music out back and the “Abbey Road” on the outside wall! Can’t wait to come back

The grand river manor is truly a special place! Situated catty corner to a covered bridge on a beautiful motorcycle byway. Large expansive facility with a horseshoe classic bar. We go every year for the annual clambake with our chopper run group, and I just need to call out the absolutely incredible staff that gives six star service... year after year!!! Anna and the rest of the staff are beyond top-notch. They are fun, friendly, fast, helpful, and kind. We also love the pickled eggs that they make!! Always great music, atmosphere, and the best of everything. Thank you for having us!!
