Best WLM Reviews
Beautiful scenery during this time of year overlooking a frozen lake. Staff was professional and welcoming. Food was excellent. I had their Pulled Pork BBQ sliders...OUTSTANDING. Atmosphere was also great for an evening with family.
We visited New Year's weekend and chose this restaurant because of the allergy-friendly options. It was a busy night with an hour wait for a table, but the food was good, and sadly we visited on a short winter's day and did not to enjoy the lake view as it was dark. I also thought the prices were reasonable for what it was. We will be back if in the area again. I really enjoyed my walleye sandwich.
We went to Barrell Back two times during our September visit. No reservations were needed, but we were there during the off season. I imagine the busy season it would be much different. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great and laid back. Breakfast was our first meal and then we went back with friends for dinner. The customer service was very good. The town of Walloon Lake is perfect to walk around and shop, stretch your legs after a meal.
The Barrel Back is one of Northern Michigan's hidden gems on Walloon Lake. A great place for excellent food and tasty drinks with a sizable bar and dining area overlooking the lake. A great place to watch the sunset! Located over top of a unique lake front shop which specializes in outdoor water sports apparel and many unique items related to the lake life. The staff was very personable and friendly. They were knowledgeable of the menu and very accommodating with specific requests! I would truly recommend anything from their menu! I've never been disappointed with any meal here!
Took my son to Boyne resort to have a fun weekend enjoying the SkyBridge and waterpark, as his birthday was on Thanksgiving this year. Other than the SkyBridge, the rest of the trip was so-so at best. Anyway, we went to Barrel Back Restaurant for dinner our last night there, and it was incredible! It really made up for the lack of enjoyment we had on our vacation, and we will definitely go back if we ever make it that way again.
I had the ribeye, he wanted a cheeseburger, and we even got wings to go. EVERYTHING we had was fantastic! Thank you for the great dinner, great service, and the view!
I'm glad we stopped here. The food was great, and I loved the atmosphere. Downstairs there is shopping with a nice selection of clothing and accessories. Our service was five star.
Went here randomly one night as they were one of the of the only restaurants in the area opened after 9pm. The food was amazing, the drinks were yummy, and the desserts were to die for! Wish we lived closer so we could come more often. I thought the prices were pretty standard for the area! The service was also unbeatable! Will be back on the next trip!
If you are a lover of Northern Michigan and have never been to Barrel Back, make sure you check it out. Food is amazing! Great beer list and happy hour. And gorgeous sunsets on Walloon Lake.
