TRIO Tavern & Grill
American Tavern & Grill · Goodrich, MI
TRIO Tavern & Grill is a family-owned restaurant in downtown Goodrich, Michigan, that has quickly become one of the most beloved dining destinations in the area. Set in a beautifully renovated historic building, TRIO delivers a warm, modern-rustic atmosphere with exposed brick, warm wood tones, and soft ambient lighting — the kind of place that feels special enough for a date night but welcoming enough for a casual weeknight dinner with the family. What truly sets TRIO apart is its extraordinary commitment to inclusive dining. The restaurant offers three separate menus — a regular menu, a dedicated Gluten-Friendly menu, and a dedicated Vegan menu — making it one of the few restaurants in the region where diners with dietary restrictions can order without hesitation. Gluten-free dishes are even marked with a special marker stake to reassure diners they were prepared with proper precautions. But TRIO doesn't just accommodate — it excels. The award-winning menu features standout dishes like the legendary Mac & Cheese, Cajun Steak Bites, Hungarian Mushroom Soup, Ella Noodles, and the decadent Blondie's Best Ever dessert. The full bar offers craft beer and Michigan ciders, and the friendly service has earned the restaurant a devoted local following. As a sister restaurant to Blondie's in Grand Blanc, TRIO carries forward a legacy of scratch-made comfort food served with genuine hospitality.
