I’d give it 5 stars if I could! - Edit
It was very clean and well decorated. Service was awesome! The food we tried was all really good. There isn’t much around that area and to find a restaurant my family can eat at was amazing. The only bad thing is they can get really busy and we were not able to eat there the first night we tried.

Great vegan options in northern michigan - Edit
It's usually difficult to eat vegan in the area. However, this restaurant provides great vegan options to choose from. Some of my favorites include: the veggie burger, sweet potato fries, and pretzel. Also, they can add daiya cheese to any meal, so don’t forget to get some on the burger! They even have brownie bites. If you're passing by, definitely stop in!
Read moreNew addition: BBQ Jack Sandwich - a new favorite of mine!
Also, I attended the afternoon tea they hosted and it was a wonderful experience! Would love to go again! Just mention you’re vegan!

Vegan Friendly Place - Edit
Food was excellent -- we had the veggie burger and the pizza -- they had several other options as well, including the ability to swap out MEAT for Tofu in many dishes. An unexpected find in the Oscoda MI area (east/sunrise side - on Lake Huron). what we really enjoyed was the friendly waitstaff -- and the owner came to our table to show us the vegan options. I think there were at least 3 -- I highly recommend the chocolate lava cake, it was amazing (and I love desserts and can judge them harshly). soil you are in Tawas, Oscoda or even Harrisville -- check this place out!
Read morethey could use more vegan options -- I think as they become more well know as a veggie/vegan option they will add to the menu -- I think the owner is somewhat new to this customer base.
Pros: Friendly staff and Owner, Excellent Food, Unforgettable dessert (choc lava cake)
Cons: could use more vegan options

Amazing service and great food! - Edit
Alcona Brew Haus had a decent selection of vegan options, as well as vegan desserts. They list all of their allergens on the menu and have GF options as well. Service was amazing, and our server was very knowledgeable on the vegan options of the menu. Our pizza was loaded with toppings! We will definitely be back on our next trip up.

Pretty good! - Edit
Compared to other northern Michigan restaurants, the vegan options are great! There was a pizza option, pulled bbq jackfruit sandwich ($14), and smoked tofu stir fry over rice entree ($19). Beer options are great too (not marked vegan or not).
Read morePros: Three vegan options, All pizza dough is vegan, Very respectful of dietary restrictions
Cons: Mildly pricy ($19 entree), No appetizers, Outdoor seating is plastic picnic tables

Thank you so much for your review! We have a few more vegan options. For appetizers: our pretzel is vegan and is delicious with mustard. Also our Lost Lake Flatbread can be vegan by changing the cheese to dairy-free mozzarella. We have tofu as an option to add to salads. We use a smaller menu during the summer holidays but our full menu offers a vegan fried rice. Now for desserts... we have 5 vegan desserts!!

Vegan Options at a great Brew House - Edit
So happy that we stumbled across the Alcona Brew Haus last year! We came for the beer, but were so pleasantly surprised by the food. The staff is exceedingly friendly and the food is great. Both times we have had the vegan pizza, but on our next trip will definitely try the vegan entree. We were totally shocked when we discovered they even had 2 vegan dessert options, both were very good. Thankful to have these vegan options is such an unexpected location (the farther you travel North in Michigan the further you usually get from vegan options).
Read morePros: Vegan pizza with vegan cheese, Amazing beer!, Great wait staff!
Cons: No teens at the bar seating.

Best part of my vacation - Edit
Atmosphere is great. There's a treasure chest for kids to get a prize after their meal. Veg/vegan options are crafted with care instead of being an afterthought.

We have been here a few times and love everything we have tried! The staff is so friendly and helpful! Highly recommend the long islands, pretzel appetizer, veggie burger, and pizza! It won’t let me give 5 stars based on the app’s rating system, but it is definitely a 5 star place!

Great unexpected Vegan options. - Edit
I did not expect any restaurants near where I am visiting to have vegan options and was pleasantly surprised tonight! The Vegan Noted was delicious and I would get it again. The veggie burger looked great as well. Lots of options here including desserts and pizza! The owner and staff were very nice and welcoming. I will be back next time I'm in the area.

Definitely a Northern treat! - Edit
My husband and I live about 45 mins away and ONLY found out about this place from our local paper! They stated they were vegan and allergy friendly! We have no vegan or plant based options around us so eating out is not really an option. We had to come try this place out. We were TOTALLY IMPRESSED! Janene was our server and she was awesome! Very knowledgeable and helpful! My husband tried the Vegan Noted which is pasta with tofu, brussel sprouts and veggies. I got the veggie burger minus the provolone and mayo. But the option for vegan cheese is available! Yay! We loved every bite! The dessert was so delicious! Can't wait to spread the word. We will definitely be back! Thank you for the vegan options! Can't wait to see it grow!!

Willing to work with various dietary choices - Edit
We’ve eaten at Alcona Brew Haus numerous times in the last year, and we drive a half-hour from our home to do so, as we have virtually no good plant-based options nearby.
Read moreThe owner, Sandy, comes to our table each time, and wants to know our thoughts on new vegan meals she’s considering. In addition to the good veggie burger on the menu, she recommends asking if the Pasta Experiment is available. We finally ordered it last week, and it was delicious, filled with smoked tofu, veggies, and pasta. She has also added a vegan dessert, Chocolate Bliss. Outstanding! It also pairs well with their Total Eclipse Stout.
Pros: Works with varied dietary choices, Good food, Friendly staff

Easily the best vegan friendly restaurant around - Edit
Being in rural Michigan vegan friendly restaurants are hard to find, but Alcona Brew Haus made it very easy to eat out.
Read moreThe food and beer were great. The owner stopped by and told us the normal pizza dough is vegan. This is now our go to restaurant.
You can review their allergy menu on their website.
