New Dining Options
The Shipyard at 17th Street Craft Brewery
Opening spring 2022, this new restaurant and craft brewery is the perfect place to enjoy the spring weather. The restaurant is made out of old recycled shipping containers and features a tasting room and rooftop patio.
This popular pizza parlor expands with a new lakefront location in the city’s southern section. Hoping to provide a “backyard” experience, the shop features a spacious outdoor deck area, cornhole, fire pits and more. Even though it is already known for its pizza, burgers and wings, the new location is adding more than two dozen beers on tap.
At this recently opened restaurant, enjoy a menu full of fried fish, scallops, oysters and more. Make sure to check out the made-from-scratch side dishes, fresh-baked bread and a full-service bar.
Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers
This retro-style chain restaurant will open in spring 2022 and is known for its delicious steakburgers and frozen custard. It even has its own fanbase known as Fredheads who love the famous Fry Sauce, shoestring fries and more.
