Dining

Each of our Grand Hotel restaurants and bars is open to non-hotel guests — whether it’s at the hotel or on Mackinac Island — and dining in the Main Dining Room is very popular with guests and visitors alike. However, you may have to pay an admission fee to enter the hotel and grounds, depending on the restaurant and time of day.
