Situated along Red Arrow Highway, an historic stretch of road that
winds along Michigan’s Southwestern shoreline, the Red Arrow
Roadhouse still has the inviting appeal of roadhouses once found
while touring the countryside in the 40’s and 50’s.
With its stucco
exterior and arched doorway still intact, the building is a
reflection of years past. Inside the restaurant guest are greeted by
a charming dining room with knotty pine walls, mounted game,
antiques and memorabilia. Rustic hardwood floors and quaint tables
are as inviting as the crafted wood bar, which originally graced
Chicago’s East Bank Club.
Though the curb appeal and atmosphere may be the draw for first time
patrons, the food keeps them returning. Menu items include pasta,
steaks, ribs, hearty salads, homemade soups, and the nostalgic
'broasted' chicken dinner, which has been a menu item for over 30
years, through several owners.
Accompanying the many tempting menu
offerings are a wide variety of bottled beers and a sophisticated
wine selection. Noted by Travel & Leisure magazine as “Harbor
Country’s Hot Spot”, and featured in Midwest Living, the Roadhouse
becomes the place to be on weekend evenings for locals and second
home owners arriving from Chicago.
The Red Arrow Roadhouse
is open for dinner nightly from with lunch
served on Saturday and Sunday. Weeknights (from September to May)
feature discounts.
