Cherry Public House

What could be more fun than a brewpub and outdoor beer garden in the most beautiful place in America? Cherry Public House, which opened in 2018 where the café and ice cream counter used to be, offers both a ‘cheers’ to the present and an ode to nostalgia. Images of Leelanau County history adorn the walls of the café, including highlights from the Sutherland family album.

Please read this excerpt from our story “Cherry Public House opens on Lake Street” which ran in the Glen Arbor Sun on May 16, 2018:

“The brewery has been a long time coming. Nearly a decade ago, Sutherland brought a raspberry-flavored lambic beer to the office and asked his staff about making something similar. Cherry Republic’s brain trust finally felt that Glen Arbor and its swell of summer tourists were ready for specialty brews. The company has long partnered with local wineries and served pours next door. But this year the seasonal lunch café needed a remodel, and the Glen Arbor campus itself needed a new septic field and parking. The brewery justified the investment.”
