I stopped at the Historian just to get a quick refreshment, but I was impressed by the place. It has a stylish atmosphere and talented, friendly bartenders. I decided to give their espresso martini a try since I’ve always wanted to like the drink and had poor experiences before. Their espresso martini was smooth with a hint of cocoa, and it was probably the best espresso martini I’ve ever had. It was very refreshing. If you’re looking for cocktails, I don’t think you can go wrong with the Historian.

The food and cocktails here were absolutely amazing! The vibe and overall atmosphere were unmatched for a chill night out with friends. Every dish we ordered was delicious. I would definitely return again.

I want to like this place more, but after four visits, it’s mid. The menu is all over the place, Asian, Indian, Middle Eastern, American….and not all executed well. Too large of a spread for everything to be tasty, especially for the prices. Cocktails are good, wine list is decent. But, please get your waitstaff out of yoga pants! Athleisure dumbs it all down.

Fancy cocktails with a side of charm? Don’t miss The Historian when visiting Southwestern Michigan.
What was once a humble bakery/deli has been transformed into a stylish cocktail lounge and restaurant. But don’t let the word “fancy” throw you—it’s not pretentious. Think friendly fancy with a warm, welcoming vibe.
The space is clean, the ambiance inviting, and the service attentive. Just a heads-up: when it’s full (and it often is), it can get a bit loud. Reservations are definitely a smart move.
The cocktails are top-notch—creative, balanced, and beautifully presented. But don’t stop there. The food is equally impressive, with thoughtful dishes that go beyond the usual. If you skip the appetizers, you might be able to save room for the bread pudding. It’s worth it!
Enjoy a relaxing weekend in Michigan. Stay at a cozy cabin at The Lakeside Cabins Resort in Three Oaks. Pair it with a great meal, and a memorable drink—what more could you ask for?

Staff is so friendly, greeting every customer as they enter and placing them getting us started right off. This location is pretty new. fancy. But not scary fancy. There is a huge selection of refreshments. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking for something more than your burger- fry- beer- after beach day snack.

The Indian food for one of their international nights was creative and delicious! We had the lamb kebabs and chicken masala. Coctails are also flavorful and beautiful.
