Bavarian Inn
Family Dining & Regional Attraction · Frankenmuth, MI
A beloved Frankenmuth institution famous for family-style Bavarian chicken dinners, homemade bread, and the iconic castle-like atmosphere. For generations, the Bavarian Inn has been a must-visit destination in Michigan's Little Bavaria, drawing visitors from across the state with its authentic German-inspired hospitality, from schnitzel and spaetzle to pretzels and strudel. Beyond dining, the complex features shops, lodging, and activities that make it a full-day experience.
Why We Love It
- A true Michigan landmark: family-style Bavarian chicken dinners that have been a regional tradition for decades
- The iconic castle-like atmosphere that makes every visit feel like a trip to Bavaria
- More than a restaurant: shops, lodging, and activities make it a full destination experience
