This started as a list that my friend Marty sent, but I&#8217;ve built it out and added my own descriptions. This was sent to\u00a0a few friends who are heading to this part of the UP for the\u00a0first time and now I&#8217;m wanting to share it as a blog post.<\/p>\n<p>Just because something isn&#8217;t here doesn&#8217;t mean that it&#8217;s bad; I simply haven&#8217;t tried it\u00a0thus don&#8217;t have anything to say about it. Every place listed here I&#8217;d gladly eat at again:<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.donckersonline.com\/\">Donckers<\/a>: <\/strong>Candy shop, has a restaurant upstairs that&#8217;s great for breakfast. I haven&#8217;t had any other meal here.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sweetwatercafe.org\/\">Sweet Water Caf\u00e9<\/a>:<\/strong> I like this place more than Donckers for breakfast, but it&#8217;s different. Donckers is more like a high quality greasy spoon; Sweet Water Cafe is more like an Ann Arbor\u00a0restaurant with high quality ingredients. Both are good.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/marquettecajun.com\/\">Lagniappe<\/a>:<\/strong> Cajun place. The food seemed good, but prices struck me as a bit high. Tasty, though.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vangospizza.com\/\">Vango&#8217;s<\/a>:<\/strong> Pizza place which is outstanding, the cudighi (local style sausage) sandwich is great.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/thevierling.com\/\">The Vierling<\/a>: <\/strong>Little more upscale restaurant and brewery, but t-shirt\/jeans is still fine. Good food, more sit down-y.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/bordergrill.net\/\">Border Grill<\/a>:<\/strong>\u00a0Tex-Mex short order stuff, really good. The fish tacos were some of the best I&#8217;ve had.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.togostogo.com\/\">ToGo&#8217;s<\/a>:<\/strong>\u00a0Good sandwich \/ sub shop; great for carryout.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/jeankayspasties.com\/\">Jean Kay&#8217;s Pasties<\/a>:<\/strong>\u00a0Classic UP pasties, really really tasty. You can also buy them par-baked \/ frozen to take home.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/ore-dock.com\/\">Ore Dock Brewing Company<\/a>: <\/strong>Good brewery, snacky food (not much). You can bring food in.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackrocksbrewery.com\/\">Blackrocks Brewery<\/a>:<\/strong>\u00a0Great brewery, no food at all. I think you can bring food in.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thirdstreetbagel.com\/\">Third Street Bagel<\/a>:<\/strong>\u00a0Giant bagel sandwiches, decent coffee. Open early.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/deadrivercoffee.com\/\">Dead River Coffee<\/a>: <\/strong>Outstanding small coffee shop. Very, very good.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/marquettefood.coop\/\"><span class=\"il\">Marquette<\/span> Food Co-Op<\/a>: <\/strong>Great little grocery store, prepared food, real high quality stuff.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tadychseconofoods.com\/\">Tadych&#8217;s Econo Foods<\/a>: <\/strong>Regular grocery store, great beer selection. Essentially across the street from the north end of the black trail (Harlow Farms Connector) or whatever; the easy way into the trails from town.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.countryvillageresort.com\/httpdocs\/html\/brewery.html\"><strong>Jasper Ridge Brewery<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0This place is in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ishpeming,_Michigan\">Ishpeming<\/a> and where a group ride meets at 6pm on Wednesdays to ride the RAMBA trails. Beer is nothing special, food is basic. The deep fried mushrooms are great.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.muldoonspasties.com\/\">Muldoons Pasties<\/a>:<\/strong> This pasty shop is located in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Munising,_Michigan\">Munising<\/a>, about an hour from Marquette. Pasties are tasty, but different from Jean Kay&#8217;s. I think I like Jean Kay&#8217;s more, but a pasty from Muldoons is definitely good and hits the spot.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/steinhausmqt.com\/\">Steinhaus<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\/ <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.steinhausmarket.com\/\">Steinhaus Market<\/a><\/strong>: Two locations, same people. Really good German-style food. Outstanding for breakfast or dinner. Just simply outstanding. Do not miss.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After traveling to Marquette a handful of times I began putting together a short list of restaurants and such which I think are worth eating&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/2015\/07\/13\/marquette-food-recommendations\/\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Marquette Food Recommendations<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18210","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-food","category-travel","entry"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18210","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18210"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18210\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18443,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18210\/revisions\/18443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18210"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18210"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18210"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
