As has been well doucmented, the Chuck Wagon is tiny...but, if you manage to get a seat, what a wonderful breakfast!!! This was a convenient place for us to go for a breakfast during a weekend stay on the island...especially since it was next door to our hotel! We were forutnate in being able to get a two-top right away.... More

A hole in the wall but the service is fast and friendly and the food and prices are great. Breakfast until 11 and lunch after that. The grill is too small to cook both at once.

Very quick and friendly service. The eggs were done perfectly and the portions were of a good size. Quite a small space but comfortable seating.

Last October we got to Mackinac Island and had to schedule a carriage ride sooner than expected, as they were closing early. We we so hungry, and I was excited to see that the Chuck Wagon was open. (They had not been open yet during our prior visit in May.) But so little time. I literally ran into the packed... More

My wife and I aren't going back until September, but she's already excited and can't wait to eat here again! Of course, I also thought it was really good. One of the best burgers I've ever had. Looking forward to trying breakfast.

I can’t believe I’ve been to the island so many times, yet we never tried the Chuckwagon until now. We were missing out. Breakfast was excellent!!! The place is tiny, but the food is worth waiting for. Or you could always get a breakfast sandwich to go. We will definitely be back.

I'm from Toronto, Canada and travel quite a bit. I wanted to take a local trip somewhere and a friend suggested mackinac island which I've never heard of before. I told a lot of my friends about it when I got back and again, no one had heard of this place. It's absolutely breathtaking and incredible. The burger definitely was... More

I drove a horse drawn shuttle and was privvey to coffee served to me at the roadside every morning on my first round. Many of the restaurant's customers shared with me the great quality of the food as well as the friendly service. They are great people and I'm so happy to see the public's positive comments.

It's exactly what I was looking for. It's a tiny diner w/ something for everyone on the menu. Good homemade breakfast. I had the biscuits and gravy, not bad. The person next to me ordered the breakfast burrito, I was a little envious. I'll be here for breakfast again. Give it a try. I'm guessing it's the best place on... More
