Been up a couple times but used to do a lot of riding in both Hayward and Eagle River, WI and it seems like those areas have a lot more places to stop for lunch and dinner on the trail. Coming up mid week for a few days and looking for suggestions for lunch/dinner stops. Food is more important than drinking, and not looking for fancy, but the kind of place that makes you look back and say we've got to go back there. Staying in Houghton and go any direction for about a 75 mile radius.

Ideas???

Bear Belly bar and grill in Lac La Belle, awesome food.
Eagle Harbor Inn, Eagle Harbor, yummmy!
Mariner North in Copper Harbor, yummmy
Mosquito Inn, Toivola, great food there also!
Krupp's mini mart in Twin Lakes, the pasties rock, if you are up on a Saturday night, the Italian dinners are awesome.
Little cafe in Toivola, I think it is called RPM's now, haven't been there yet, but heard it was really good.

Try Quincies bar in dallar bay they have great food with more a restaurant atmosphere than bar. Quincies is on trail 3 about two miles east of the lift bridge. dan

75 mile radius and no one has mentioned Henry's? :p
If you make it to Rockland, you will not leave hungry.

In addition to those mentioned already, if you go south as far as Rockland, you have to stop at Henry's!

Great replies already, thanks to Skylar (seems appropriate to also say "happy birthday" to him) we've been to Eagle Harbor Inn, Mariner and the Mosquito. Also a couple in Houghton, Ambassador and Joey's. All have been great. Just looking for that stop for lunch with a great juicy burger, or dinner place we may have missed. Where is the one spot you all always go when you're riding for a few days?

You've already been to some great places. Bear Belly is great too. Try them out.
I like every place up there. I guess I'm just so happy to be in the UP it doesn't matter where I eat, ya know?

Well the trip is winding down so here is the update on food... (I've made a couple comments on conditions in other threads)

Made some of the places we've hit before, Mosquito, Ambassador, Eagle Harbor Inn then added the Dreamland Bar, Belly Bear (great as everyone promised) and Quincy's (thanks to Yamadooed and danschevyv8) which was the best suprise of the trip. We will make Quincy's the must stop from now on. The 1/2 lbs burger was cooked a perfect mid-rare, hand pattied and super good bun. Dinner special tonight was Prime Rib. It was excellent! We said this is the place to hit for lunch on the trail, and some other night it is the place to go for a relaxing dinner.

Thanks to everyone for all the ideas.

The Hut is always a good place to eat just follow the trail to the centennial cottages and you are right there.

Friday night at Henry's in Rockland is hard to beat. The smorgasbord has a little bit of everything and it is all good.

If you want food that has been sitting out for a long time, not made to order.
And food arranged anywhere it will balance. They have good cans of beer though.
