Staff was great although she was embarrassed because we returned the white Russian cocktail to her because they used spoiled cream that curdled and because they were out of the appetizer we ordered (pork rhines). All in all it was a good dining experience. I will add we dined inside to avoid bugs around the river while we ate. Didn't matter because the patio door was open the whole while we were there, so we kept having to shue flies!

The food was quite tasty, though not quite five-star quality. The service was good, and the location is fantastic, right by the river. read more The food was quite tasty, though not quite five-star quality. The service was good, and the location is fantastic, right by the river.

The meat was so tender that it practically fell off the bone. I enjoyed a local craft beer from Cheboygan, which was a nice touch. Plus, we were seated right by the river. I've been visiting Higgins for 45 years, and this was my first time here—what a hidden gem!

I had a chopped brisket sandwich called The BEAST and it was delicious. My wife had a bowl of chili that was also quite tasty. Plus they had M 43 on tap. We 'll be back for sure!

The pulled pork had an exceptional flavor, and there was a selection of sauces available at the table to enhance it. Although we sat indoors, the nearby brook added a delightful touch to the experience, even from afar. The service was both friendly and efficient. The waitstaff also took on the role of hostess, yet they managed to keep everything running smoothly without missing a step.

I noticed all the other servers were kind and attentive. I tried the Beast sandwich and the Sweet Creeper Chili. It was amazing! Nice heat on the chiliand flavor was bold. The brisket was perfectly smoked and flavorful. I'll come back when I'm in the area next.

I ordered the BBQ rib meal, while my husband chose the pulled pork sandwich with blue cheese, and both dishes were fantastic. Although the restaurant was full, our food arrived quickly and piping hot! We definitely plan to return if we find ourselves in the area again!
