Wheaty's Pub

Great small town bar with friendly staff! Four taps and a decent can/bottle selection. Fried pickle spears with dill ranch were fantastic. Garlic Parm fries are a sauce not a dry sprinkle but we're still pretty good.

We ended up eating here by recommendation from the hotel that we stayed at. It was a very cool experience, and they are ranked number one in their state for Wings. I wanted to say the flavoring was good on the wings, but the wings were cold on the inside. I guess they were pre-cooked, though. The outside space is pretty amazing, and they had a new server, which she was fabulous! The other one was kind of crabby but turned around. I don't know. I would try it again just to see, but I wasn't extremely impressed.

I first heard about Wheaty's Pub as it having been a sponsor of the Highway 2 Community Drive-In Theater. Then, when I was in Manistique for work, I saw Wheaty's and recognized the name. A sign that said they had the "#1 wings in the U.P." intrigued me to come back on my own time and check it out. My boyfriend and I stopped in yesterday and were impressed with the wings and all the housemade wing sauce flavors, which the bartender said were the owner's own creations. We got a flight of four wing sauces. I liked the mango habanero; he preferred the spicy garlic parmesan; I thought the ginger peach went well on the fish tacos. The fried pickles were great -- I had been expecting pickles slices, but they were whole wedges. The other side sauces were good, too -- I didn't try them at first, because I hate both mayo and sour creama, but the chipotle sour cream that came with the tacos actually tasted like smoky chipotle, and the tomatillo ranch that came with the pickles was nice and fresh. There were only a few beers on tap, but a couple of them were relatively local crafts -- from Ore Dock and Keweenaw. They had several more in cans, and a solid cocktail menu, too.

First time visiting here, decided on this place based on rave online reviews of food & service. Had my sister peek inside before taking "mature folks" (Mom & MIL) inside with us...lol! They were RIGHT! Trish greeted us upon entry, let us choose where to sit, was super friendly & thorough w/ our order & I gotta say, "Compliments to the Chef!". All 4 of our meals and the Onion Ring Appetizer were delicious! Not one complaint! It was definitely a bar, but their food could be served in ANY great restaurant! Meals were the burger w/ everything, Shrimp Po-Boy Sandwich, Grilled Chicken Cordon Bleu sandwhich & Fish n Chips (fries). Nothing was overly seasoned leaving room for our own level of seasoning, & all were prepared just as we asked. Also enjoyed a (local) Lite Beer recommended by Trish. One of the best burgers I've ever had!! Was so great! Thank you guys for an awesome meal! Wish we lived closer!

I've tried chicken wings all over the place, but this place is legit in my top 3! The chicken was crispy, juicy, HUGE and I couldn't resist visiting Wheaty's twice during my 5-day stay in the area. I managed to try 6 of their sauces, and here's my ranking: 1. Thai plum - sweet, spicy, and tangy, it's one of the best wing sauces I've ever had! 2. Korean - bold and flavorful, with a nice kick. 3. Ginger peach - a unique and delicious blend of sweet and savory. 4. Fort Morgan (buffalo style) - similar to the classic, but alittle sweet and spicy, just the way I like it. 5. Blackberry pomegranate - a sweet and fruity sauce with a hint of tartness. 6. Mango habanero - spicy and tropical, but not for the faint of heart!

All the food we've ever had at Wheaty's has been delicious! Our favorite item are their cheese curds with the garlicky sauce. Very delicious! Their recent expansion is very bright and a nice area to relax and enjoy your food in. One of our favorite spots to stop at!

Perfect pub experience. Food was excellent and came out quickly. We started with the pita and tzatziki sauce which had these great soft and crunchy pita wedges. Next were the entrees, shrimp po boy (chefs kiss!) and the mammoth wings with crinkle fries. I tried 3 sauces and my favorite was the blackberry/pomegranate with Serrano. Ranch was also very good. Drinks mixed perfectly and bathrooms were clean - what more could you want? Yum!
