Bayside - Petoskey

We enjoyed a late breakfast at this cozy restaurant, which is on the smaller side, so we had to wait around 15-20 minutes. However, once we were seated, our server provided excellent service. The food was fantastic! I ordered the breakfast burrito, and it was massive, very satisfying, and packed with flavor. I would definitely come back here again.

Everything was wonderful at the restaurant: the food, the service, and the speed. I only have one complaint—please consider getting larger tables for your outdoor patio. There's not much space for the big plates of delicious breakfast food. My hash browns were cooked to perfection, nice and crispy!

Bayside has very good food! Some wonderful breakfast items, featuring unique twists on classics. Lunch offerings are burgers and sandwiches and salads, all made with fresh ingredients and masterfully prepared. So why the low rating? When we entered, the restaurant only had a few customers. It's not a huge place, but those who were there were in the booths along one side. In the middle were several square tables seating four. Along the other side of the room were a couple of round high top tables. We came in with four adults and two children, a five year old and an almost two year old. We asked to have the square tables put together. We were told they couldn't do that. We could either divide up or they could put the two round high tops together. We had driven a long way to visit with these people, and did not want to divide up. But a high top table for kids especially one still using a booster was just silly. We were never given a reason why the square tables could not be put together. There were no customers sitting in the center area, and actually pushing two tables together would have made more room for serving around the tables. The five year old ended up slipping off the high stool and falling. No injury, but it was totally unnecessary since we could have been seated together at the lower tables pushed together. Would I go back? Probably. But next time I'll be a little more Karen about the whole thing and leave if they can't accommodate a party of six with two kids.

Breakfast date! Mason jars! Good food, bring your girlfriend here. Friendly and legit service. Sonya was very nice and I will come back.

I visited this restaurant for breakfast before the yacht show in Bay Harbor. The service was excellent, and the portion sizes were generous. The prices were surprisingly lower than average for the area, which was a pleasant surprise, especially considering its proximity to Bay Harbor! The omelettes were large, but I found them lacking in cheese and slightly overcooked, in my opinion. The location might not be ideal if you're not from the south side of Petoskey. Overall, it was a great experience, and our waitress was fantastic! I would love to come back and try lunch sometime.
