30-40 minutes wait time for smash burgers and fries and chicken sandwich 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. That's freaking hilariosly pathetic 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I was a chef for 15 years.... those items are the easiest to cook..... should take no longer than 15-25 minutes Max $33 for five little burgers 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Went there with my family, and we ordered at 12:28pm and waited a little over an hour for the food. When it wasn’t still ready, I asked and the girl was rude and insisted I was being rude and that the sign said 30-40 mins wait time. I said that I realized that, but it had been 60 minutes at the time. Asked her then, when would the order be ready, she said being rude to her wasn’t helping my order coming out any faster. So, at that time it had been 1 hour and 15 mins. I insisted on a refund and she kept trying to tell me how rude I was being and to not throw things at her. I didn’t throw anything at her, I tossed my card on the counter when I told her I wanted a refund.
As she was doing it, she continued to berate me and tell me how rude I was and being impatient wasn’t appreciated. I would stay away from this restaurant and the food I saw coming out didn’t even look appealing. It wasn’t just me that had been waiting for over an hour on food. Many people had been complaining as well, while I was waiting.

This place rocks! They have a wide variety of pinball games and a great selection of drinks. I got the Nordhouse smashburger and it was dang delicious. Staff was also very friendly and helpful. We had a big group coming in and we couldn't stop talking the rest of the weekend about how much we enjoyed the food and vibe!
Highly recommend if you're looking for a good bite in town, and hoping to be back soon!

We were in town on Friday June 5, 2026, to perform at the Ramsdell Theater and went to The Outsider for the first after-party of that night. What a wonderful experience! The food, drinks, brew selection, pinball games, lavishly roomy outdoor area and the SERVICE!
I really enjoyed the falafel salad dish.
I would heartily recommend this place and I do hope to return someday.

Amazing spot, impeccable service, delicious food and drink! The folks at The Outsider were kind enough to host an after party for our cast and crew after our performance at the Ramsdell theater a few blocks away, and it couldnt have been more wonderful. The employees taking care of us last night were incredibly kind and helpful to the point that every single one of us were impressed and felt so welcome 😊 Next time we are up Manistee way, we will definitely be back for more smashburger, beers and pinball... thank you so much!
