Remembrance. Reverence. Memorial Day is a day to reflect upon those who gave all in service to our country and freedoms. 🇺🇸

For many, today also marks the unofficial beginning of summer. And, it appears summer weather may finally be joining us. ☀️ Summer hits differently for each of us. At our locations, we begin easing into extended summer hours. Outdoor seating (where available) becomes a little more lively. College students return home. Seniors graduate and step into new chapters. For many of you, backyard grills are uncovered, boats return to the water, and Northern Michigan begins to hum with summertime energy once again.

As we gather with friends and family, enjoy the sunshine, and welcome the season ahead, may we also pause with gratitude for those whose sacrifice made these moments possible.

Remember to remember.

Serving 11:30-9P today.
