We have been on Torch Lake for 30 years and have seen great places come and go but Ames Street Cafe is a true 5 out of 5 in Elk Rapids. The food is so fresh and seriously delicious with something for everyone in the family; healthy, sweet tooth, gluten free and even our college football player was thrilled with the double Smash Burger!
Highly recommend!!!

I can never say enough good things about this place! The food is excellent and the coffee is great. They have oat milk, gluten free toast and gluten free pancakes. It’s a win for everyone! Plus, it’s cute 🥰
