Stafford's Weathervane Restaurant

Address
106 Pine River Lane,
Charlevoix, MI 49720
Phone

Stafford's Weathervane serves incredible lunch and dinner entrées, all made from scratch with only the season’s finest ingredients. The focal point of their indoor dining room is a massive stone fireplace with a history all its’ own. Made of glacial boulders and shaped like Michigan’s lower peninsula, the fireplace actually replicates a map of the state including highways and interstates. Enjoy this one-of-a-kind arboretum atmosphere overlooking the beautiful Pine River Channel.

The Weathervane does not, at any time, enforce a dress code. It is their mission to allow guests the comfort they need to properly enjoy the Weathervane's culinary creations.

4 stars for atmosphere- they have old table and chairs outside and not cleaning up that well. It would be 5 stars if they updated outside patio to match the quality of resturant then be 5. The service was okay food- plating was poor and especially for kids meals. Kids burger doesn’t even come with fries or anything- fries 4 dollars more. Wallet was okay but not much taste for 45 dollars. Still a historic gem and that’s why it’s busy.

We ate here in 2022, and I felt compelled to write the review now because we have not STOPPED talking about this meal since then. Almost 3 years and we still talk about how good it was. I had the elk pops at the time and a lavender cheesecake and ice cream Top 3 meals of all time, anywhere, ever. I wish I was from the area because I'd come back. The fact that we still talk about this place says so much!!

Would of been a great experience. My wife and I stopped for dinner. Her food was brought out hot, my very expensive steak was brought out cold, probably 75°. They took it back and reheated it somehow and brought it back out to me and the texture was like rubber. I talked to the server and asked to take it off my bill. They did take it off my bill. I still left the server a good tip as it was not her fault. Always tip your server good but I wish she would of been more sympathetic. All and all, my wife's dinner was good and I helped her eat it. Total cost for app, glass of wine, and her meal plus tip almost $90.

We ate at a quiet time of day, at a table overlooking the river. The service was friendly and prompt, and our food was delicious.

Great view. Lovely atmosphere. Good service. Went here for late lunch on a day trip. Loved everything. Our favorite dining experience on our trip. The salads were great. Burger & Fish & Chips were great. Sat at a high top the had a huge picture window of the draw bridge and bay right in front of us. Definitely recommended.
