Watercolor Cafe

Great spot for quick sandwiches and coffee. They offer gluten free bread, which was actually very good! Some original drink options - we really enjoyed the coffee with taro. The location was great for us because we had our dogs with us and it was raining so the umbrella and overhang offered some protection from the rain since we couldn't escape inside of a building with the pups.

The atmosphere is excellent. The food was pretty good. The staff was very friendly.
Accessibility note: the restaurant does not have good wheelchair accessibility.
Celiac note: there were several positive reviews that suggested that this restaurant would accommodate celiac disease. However, our celiac/gluten free order was carried out *underneath* our other orders that contained gluten. There was some ambiguity about whether or not food was prepared and handled separately. It was very busy when we were there, so that may have been a factor.

Delicious food and drinks! This cafe is a true, hidden gem. Views right out onto the water and a colorful, eclectic atmosphere inside.

Went here with my family of 6, not only was the food delicious but the owner was so sweet to my kids, got them setup with art activities and was just genuinely interested in what they created. Made for a relaxing meal with awesome ambiance, in a town full of tourist spots this is a gem of authenticity, clearly operated to bring food and art together out of a passion you don’t often find. I can’t wait to come back!

Several REALLY GOOD gluten free/dairy free options. I had a sandwich and smoothie and it did not disappoint. The rest of the family REALLY enjoyed the pop tart as well.

Very cute waterfront cafe! Healthy choices, very friendly staff. We will be back.

I fell in love with this cafe. Such a nice and quiet location that felt cozy and peaceful. Prices were more than reasonable. Coffee was delicious as well as the cranky cure smoothie. My husband enjoyed his breakfast sandwich. I visited three times on my four day trip. I would highly recommend!!

Absolutely amazing cute coffee shop with light eats too tucked in a shack on the waterfront amidst the piers. Breakfast sandwich to die for, but the ambiance is even better. Indoor & outdoor seating. Staff awesome, always with smiles on their faces.

This cafe/art studio has one of the best views on the island. All of there food is made fresh and with care. Many healthy portions including smoothie bowls. However, their homemade pop tarts that are made fresh daily are my favorite. They have many different flavors that very day to day. I hear they are adding espresso for the 2020 season. This is a great place for kids and adults when it turns into an art studio at night. I took classes here and I’ve never been able to do more than draw a stick figure. After a class with Kate I was able to draw a map of Mackinac Island a depict my version of the night sky within it. I loved it to much I framed it. I love this place. Can’t wait for their second season.

Great spot for a healthy breakfast or lunch. Smoothie bowls are great and there is coloring for the kids. Limited seating but a nice space!
