Is there anything better than dinner with a view? We think not, and Michigan is lucky to offer all sorts of lovely eateries that are accompanied by stunning surroundings. If you find yourself in the Upper Peninsula, one such spot stands out for its sunset vistas, amazing food, and unbeatable service – and you’ll undoubtedly want to check it out for yourself.
Fitzgerald’s Hotel & Restaurant is located at 5033 Front St in Eagle River.
This beloved spot in the Keweenaw Peninsula is widely appreciated for its friendly atmosphere, rustic yet well-kept decor, and tasty fare. There’s something here to delight everyone who stops by.
Whether you’re searching for the perfect pit stop after a long day of traveling or simply grabbing a drink with pals, you’ll be impressed. Known affectionately as “The Fitz,” Fitzgerald’s is a true local gem.
As you settle in and peruse the menu, your mouth will begin to water. The Fitz offers an array of Southern-inspired cuisine complete with BBQ, hot chicken sandwiches, and more.
