Cranker's Restaurant & Brewery

Cranker's Restaurant & Brewery is a beloved family-owned establishment nestled in the heart of Big Rapids, Michigan, at 213 S State Street. Since transforming from a humble Coney Island into a thriving full-service restaurant and microbrewery, this cherished local gem has been serving the community with an unwavering commitment to quality, hospitality, and authentic American flavors. The restaurant prides itself on its scratch kitchen philosophy, partnering with local farmers to incorporate fresh, regionally-sourced produce into every dish. The on-site microbrewery crafts a diverse selection of handcrafted beers that have earned distribution across the country, yet the brewing team never loses sight of their local roots. The rustic-industrial atmosphere welcomes guests with warm indoor dining and a charming patio illuminated by string lights, perfect for enjoying craft brews on sunny Michigan afternoons. The extensive menu features crowd-pleasers like crispy Chicken Strips Basket, hearty Belgian Waffles, vibrant Fajita Festiva, and the mouthwatering Sirloin Sizzler. Cranker's also offers professional catering services with customizable menus featuring fresh salads, pasta classics, chicken dishes, and savory beef or pork entrées suitable for birthdays, office gatherings, and special celebrations. The venue accommodates group reservations and parties, providing flexible spaces designed for laughter, connection, and unforgettable memories. Golf enthusiasts can now enjoy the Uneekor Golf Simulators on site, adding another dimension to this versatile entertainment destination.
