STORY
Serving Delicious Pub Grub Since 2019
At The Halfway Bar & Grill, we believe great food starts with great ingredients and even better company. Founded by Chelsea Fernstrum, Halfway continues her family’s tradition of honest cooking, warm hospitality, and local pride. From scratch-made comfort food to regionally sourced specials, we embody the spirit of the Upper Peninsula and the people who make it home.
Come pull up a chair, share a drink, and discover why Halfway is more than just a stop along the way.
Comfort Food, Crafted with Care.
Our kitchen is rooted in the flavors of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, celebrating the farms, waters, and artisans that make this region so special.
​
We serve upscale casual pub food that’s elevated but unpretentious—think classics reimagined with care, creativity, and seasonal inspiration. Our menu shifts throughout the year to reflect what’s fresh and available, so there’s always something new to discover.
