The Wigwam

The Wigwam sits on Onaway Road just minutes from the scenic Indian River shoreline, offering a welcoming lodge‑style atmosphere that blends classic American comfort food with a well‑curated bar. Inside, reclaimed‑wood beams and vintage signage create a relaxed vibe, while the open‑concept kitchen lets diners watch the grill where the house‑famous Wigwam Burger sizzles alongside hand‑breaded chicken tenders and crisp seasonal fries. The menu also features a creamy mac‑and‑cheese, a hearty meatloaf, and a selection of salads topped with locally sourced apples from nearby orchards. Beer lovers can peruse the tap list, which showcases Michigan craft brews such as Grand Rapids’ Founders Porter and Kalamazoo’s Bell’s Oberon, plus rotating seasonal taps. The bottle list offers regional wines from the Finger Lakes and a handful of premium spirits, perfect for pairing with the steak‑house style entrees. With a 4‑star rating from over three hundred reviews, guests praise the friendly staff, quick service, and the patio that overlooks the quiet residential street, ideal for sunset drinks. Prices range from $12 for a burger to $28 for a steak, making it a family‑friendly spot without compromising quality. Open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 am to 10 pm, the Wigwam accepts reservations via its website or by calling +1 231‑238‑0494. Whether you’re a local looking for a casual dinner or a traveler exploring the Upper Peninsula’s culinary scene, The Wigwam promises hearty meals, a solid drink selection, and a warm, community‑focused experience.
