Little Brown Jug

Food was great, except for the poutine, which was just okay. Brisket was juicy and flavorful.

I actually chose this place after seeing an ad/posting on Facebook. Located in Maybee, Michigan, it is about a 45-minute drive for me. It was my birthday, and as one of my favorite Michigan dinners is Lake Perch, I decided that was going to be my birthday meal! The storefront entry is very unassuming, yet I felt welcome and friendly once inside. The bartender was sure to say hello across the room with a "Go ahead and sit anywhere you like!" Maybee is a very small town--a farming community--and the small-town feel is right there on the surface of the experience. Our waitress was very friendly, efficient, and helpful when it came to some questions from my wife about food allergies.I enjoyed the Perch and my wife enjoyed it here as well. I am sure that we will find our way back here someday.

Cold beer, great food, and remarkable service from the bartender! It was so wonderful we left and then came back with friends that same evening! The 3 large size rooms of the restaurant/bar were very clean and cozy! Family friendly and yet perfect for an evening out with friends. The menu looks super delicious. My wife had the fiesta smothered chicken and I snacked on some tater tot kegs while I enjoyed a couple High Life's. Enjoy!

Fish and chips are on point. Beer is cold and people are warm and friendly. Very clean too. If you ever find yourself with 20 miles of this place defiantly get a meal here.

Had tacos here. $2 each on Wednesdays. Excellent. Good cold draft beers. Beautiful place. Very clean inside. Our waitress, Jean, has been working here for 40 years. What a sweetheart!

For a long time, I have heard about the exceptional prime rib at the Brown Jug.Since, I was in the area, today was the day.The Brown Jug is a restaurant/Bar with a very casual atmosphere.The wait staff is friendly.I ordered the prime rib medium rare+.I respect them for not rolling their eyes.I just want a steak between medium rare and medium.Other places have belittled me for my order.I also ordered the baby back ribs.The story behind them is the crew at the restaurant has won awards for their bbq.My third order was Mac and Cheese.Each entree came with various sides.The entrees are very generous in portion size.You will not leave this place hungry.The food review -The prime rib was cooked as requested.Very tender. I thought that it would have a better char on it.The taste was decent.The ribs were fall off the bone tender.I assumed that they would be smoked.My bad for not asking.I wish they offered a choice of bbq sauces. The sauce they put on the ribs was average at best.The Homemade Mac and Cheese was good it just needed more cheese.Would I go back to this restaurant, probably not.If I was in the area visiting friends and we ended up at this restaurant, I would be good with it.

Had a great first time visit and a second visit planing for a third real soon food is great

Food is really good, service is great, just a really cool place in a really small town in southern Michigan.

Ordered a drink to start the evening off. I've been drinking Manhattans for over 50 years. This was the worst one I've ever had. The glass was only half full and it didn't taste like there was much whiskey in it. The salad was good but the rest of the dinner left a lot to be desired. It was pricey and skimpy. The baked potato was hard and cold. I usually don't completely finish my dinners and end up taking home leftovers. Not the case here. I left their hungry. Also, no bread was served.
