Our family loved dinner here! My lemon butter salmon was cooked perfectly. My husband also loved his bourbon glazed pork chop and our kids loved the chicken tenders and fries. Our waitress was fantastic, the atmosphere was fun and clean. We are definitely coming back and would recommend!

I had a great time on the upper rear deck with friends for an early July evening dinner, seeing the ferry coming in to dock in the distance. We had solid service. Our food was ok and they’d run put of several food/drink items but it was Saturday of 4th of July weekend so I’d consider that extenuating circumstances. I regret not getting a burger – it was the best looking item coming out of the kitchen that night but the waffle burger (pictured) did not get rave reviews from my friend’s teenager. Overall, a seemingly decent/reliable local joint, especially if you can sit outside in the summer

Timbers is more than a restaurant, it is an experience! Food is made with quality ingredients, full of flavor, and aesthetically pleasing. Amazing service. Our server Tammy Y. was pleasant, graceful, and we could tell she really enjoyed her job and took pride in the restaurant and the team she worked with. She was friendly and knowledgeable and when I wanted a cocktail but could not decide, she asked the bartender to come over, we and he made me a special cocktail that is not yet on the menu. It was delicious. We had a hand crafted blackberry bourbon chocolate cake for desert that was absolutely mouthwatering.

It was trivia night upstairs and it was quite hot for springtime without air conditioning. Trivia with such a blast – but the food left a bit to be desired. We had a new server working behind the bar and he was really pleasant, even though food and drink service was slow in general. We will absolutely try things again soon! 🙂

We hosted our wedding reception at Timbers in Ludington, Michigan, and it was truly everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, the staff especially Mandy, went above and beyond—they were not only friendly and professional, but also incredibly intuitive, anticipating our needs before we even voiced them.

The food was absolutely delicious, with the macaroni and cheese being a standout favorite among our guests (we’re still getting compliments about it!). The team at Timbers also did a beautiful job transforming the space into something cozy, romantic, and welcoming, making the evening feel both intimate and elegant.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special day. If you’re considering Timbers for any event—or just a great meal—you won’t be disappointed!

Service was great! Chef came out to chat. Smashburger was amazing (love the dill sauce!) and the Chicken and Waffle stack was delicious. Glad to see this place back open after the fire.

This was our first time here at Timbers. The food and drinks were delicious. You definitely shouldn’t leave hungry, big portion size. I had the Caprese Chicken sandwich, and upgraded to chili cheese fries. Their chili is so good. My hubs had the fish and chips. He loved it. We tried the onion rings for an appetizer. No complaints there. We also had cocktails. I had the Sparkling Carmel Apple. If you like sweet, this is for you. The Maple Bourbon Smash was good. Very citrus forward. I would have liked a little more maple. My husband liked it.
We ended our dinner with to go boxes, and a piece of Carmel Chocolate Cheesecake. We will be going back.

Last week I was in Ludington, and wanted to get something to eat before the long drive home. I found this place and thought I’d give it a shot. I was greeted very nicely by Lavelle. He was very nice and enthusiastic. Interior here is nice, and it was clean enough for my standards. Got the crab fries as an appetizer, which were phenomenal! My entree was the Spanish Octopus. That was also incredible! To get octopus as tender as they did is hard to do, and the risotto matched perfectly. And finally, the whipped cheesecake. No words needed!
