I have some more from that part of the Lakes for those who venture in that direction....

Shamrock! I love that place, been years, but it's always fun.
Some others:
Coral Gables in Saugatuck, very amusing to participate or observe in the raft, but don't go there with a "gold plater" unless you don't mind high heels followed by drunken frat boys falling on your boat.
Red Dock, Saugatuck, where the cool locals go to drink beer and eat good food purchased from the owner. Easy to find, right at the end of the Keewatin, but it's not part of the Keewatin tourist trap.
Boatwerks in Holland, MI all the way down the lake, decent food, great docks, really scenic ride past the biggest houses, plus it's not a no-wake zone.
The Piper, Holland, MI easy to get to just inside the harbor from Lake Michigan, dynamite meals, awesome view and great docks.
Turkey's Pizza, Harbor Springs, MI, you have to use the shoppers dock, and walk a block, but it's the best Pizza in all of Up North.
The Knot Bar, Bay Harbor, MI you can look at your yacht and rub elbows with other yachties or you can duck in with your little CC and have a beer pretending to be a yacht owner.
Buffalo is a total loss...
