6 reviews for Cabbage Shed
A decent place. When you're from Chicago, any bar where you can buy a Bud Light bottle for $2.25 resonates pretty well. There's plenty of space in this place although it does get a little smoky.
The small band/stage setup in the front room is nice. The cabbage shed probably would've been a 4 star establishment for me if I hadn't walked into the back room (which is HUGE and was completely empty) and put 50 cents in the pool table for a game. The table was so uneven the balls wouldn't even stay where we racked them for the break.

The Cabbage Shed is something to experience. Very quirky interior, kinda feels like a western saloon meets a commune of hippies. The food is quite good, although occasionally a bit inconsistent. Menu items vary from sandwiches and burgers to fish and steaks. They have the best nachos in the area. The staff are friendly and warm and service is usually very good unless they get mobbed.
This place is very popular in the summer, so it can get a bit crowded, especially Friday and Saturday nights. They have outdoor dining overlooking the water, so if it's too crowded or smokey inside, check it out.
They have pool tables and foosball. They also occasionally have some good bands.
Great bar and also good food. The best part is the atmosphere, as it's in an old barn (or perhaps it was a cabbage shed? eh?). Their deck overlooks the bay, and they've got a lot of good sandwich options. I always like going to the shed, as you're likely to run into someone you know there.
Although the name might put some people off, The Cabbage Shed is definitely one of the better moderately priced restaurants in Northern Michigan.
Made fresh daily soups and tempting seafood are small highlights of their menu.
Drink selections are somewhat limited, with only house wines and beer offered.
Service, as it is by and large in Northern Michigan, is "casual". The deck area overlooking the Betsie river is suggested if it is a nice day.
Dirty! I don't even remember the quality of food.
The Shed is an awesome space. It's located right on the harbor and has some seating outside on a deck. The inside is downright huge. As such, it really helps to hit The Shed on a good night (read: Thurs, Fri, or Sat during the summer season), otherwise it can feel kinda empty. On a busy night, expect a rollicking crowd of locals and tourists, a live band (usually of the bluegrass or classic rock varieties), swarms of people around the pool tables, and a *good* time.
Note that the Shed closes at Midnight on off-nights (at least on the nights I've been there). After 12 on off-nights, The Villa Marine Bar in Frankfort is your only choice.
