How could one not like The Lodge? They have beers on draft, beer by the bottle and plenty of spirits to get you all warm and fuzzy. The Lodge also happens to have a pretty decent menu of food, and manages to do their food well. Their onion rings are in the top 3 of my all time favorites... Big rings of onion, nicely battered, and fried to crunchy perfection. I like to dip em in a big blob of ketchup, but maybe that's the Michigan in me. The Lodge has a patio with some bar games if you're the type that likes to stay busy, as well as pool tables in the back. The stools in the bar area got a makeover and are cushy now, which is much more acceptable to my behind than the previous slab of tree trunk for a seat (ouch!). The staff is good, the crowd is a mixed bag of ages and interests. Beware the bathrooms are tiny and if its crowded the ladies' line can get long waiting for one of the two stalls.
