American Legion — Attraction in Munising

First time in an American Legion, because who can visit Munising without seeking out a Friday Fish Fry with locally caught, fresh white fish or lake trout. And whaaaaaat, they stock Bell’s Two Hearted IPA! Yeah, it feels like a forgotten church basement and smells like a 90 year old fryer basket. But the bartender/servers are incredibly kind and attentive (ours worked for the US Forestry Service by day), the fish is NOT TO BE MISSED, and the French fries are fantastic (think Minnesota State Fair). The coleslaw is thick and sweet. Not my jam but likely scooped out of a commercial container and simple for them to serve. If they dared, I would encourage them to make their own with little to no sugar and celery seeds + dill. The tartar sauce is scooped out of the adjacent commercial container and would also be amazing if freshly made and a bit innovative. The fries cannot be improved and are perfection. Another thought would be to serve the fries with from scratch gravy. But alas, this is the American Legion, so if it ain’t broke,...

We wanted a good fish fry. First time spending significantly time in Munising Mi. We decided to try the American Legion partly because my husband is a veteran and every else I've had wonderful fish fries for an American Legion. The place was packed we got a table connected to the bar. We took another couples menu(they had already ordered). We sat there another 15minutes before anyone knowledged us. Luckily we knew what we wanted so we placed our order. We've heard about the fresh White Fish and it did not disappoint. We received our food in a timely mater but NO ONE bothered to check on us and my husband ended up eating his meal with nothing to drink, due to NO ONE checking in on us. I watched our server take care of the regulars but never once looked our way. My husband even tapped his empty can and NOTHING!!!! We ate I shared my water and we literally waited 20 minutes to get our check. Not a place to go to if you're not a regular. We Will...

Absolutely love coming in for dinner, Friday fish fry is always the best, today was the first time I have ever been disappointed! the food was excellent as always but our server I believe her name was Marge was not, she couldn't keep our drinks straight (understandable if it would have been busy) and after waiting for more than 10 minutes for her to bring my Chang back I decided to just leave. We will continue to come in as I said we love coming in it will always be one of our favorite...
