The closest and best option nearby for fish fry was Mona Co, according to my friend who was in our camping group and has lived in the UP for all her life. Mona Co is such a fun set up as it is the restaurant that is located at the Indian Lake Golf Course, so your view from the restaurant is to the entire golf course and in the very distance you can see Indian Lake as well. One room of this restaurant is the dining room and the other is where the bar is with a couple of high top tables. The dining room looked pretty full, so we sat at the high tops near the bar and informed the hostess that we were going to be sitting there but wanting to both eat and drink, which they said was fine.Overall, the food was yummy I was glad to have been able to experience a traditional UP fish fry. The ambiance of this place was very odd though. It 's very casual, very unique characters coming here to dine, and because of that blend of golfers and people just coming to dine, it was just an interesting mix all around. The service was very slow given that they had a full house, but basically one person running around taking all the orders and running to and from the bar to grab drink orders as well. It took quite a while (over half an hour) after we sat down before we could even place our food order and then quite a bit longer as we waited for food. The bar we could walk up to ourselves and get a drink, so didn 't need to wait on that.We were able to do plenty of people watching though and that 's why I have a ton of observations of the people who came through these rooms. The bartenders were very friendly and very young. Some drink orders that came in they would need to ask older customers about how to make as they were also a little bit clueless e.g. someone ordered a drink straight up and they weren 't sure if that meant with or without ice and gave them their drink with a side of ice just in case!Overall, we weren 't in any rush and I was starving by the time the food came, so happily ate it all and were on our way back to the campground for our camping weekend!
