Big place. Short walk from Central Waters. Bright, open, plant wall. Kinda cool concept with baby breweries on offer. The tanks I can see are 60 bbl so these baby breweries are growing up quickly. Flights, full pours, full bar. Prices not bad. 3 hoppy beers and a saison. No paper menus. QR codes and screens. Beer good so far. Fried chicken sandwich was good but side salad not. Overall nice stop.

It's a grocery store. This is my 2nd (maybe 3rd) Jack's. Beer selection pales to the Menominee, MI location (only like 3-4 miles away). BYO section is very sad. But they do have lots of sixers of local breweries and the prices aren't bad. Parking easy. Service (only a cashier) was fine. Go to Menominee for a better experience but this is fine for stocking up for the hotel room (which I was).
