Jolly Pumpkin Brewery - Traverse City

The rustic style is fanstastic. Pizza very good. The beer flight very good. The restroom needs to be more clean.

We visit the Traverse City area every year after Christmas. We always take the opportunity to visit the Jolly Pumpkin. The drive there is beautiful. The atmosphere, the food, and the service are all wonderful.

Pizza is the best, ...always go there for my pizza!!

Very cool building!! Great beer and food was great. Very tight seating was the only bad thing.

My wife and I are frequent fliers of the Traverse City area and have been to Jolly Pumpkin a couple times! Cool Halloween/Hogwarts type of atmosphere! Service has always been good for us when we go! On this visit we did a beer flight to start with a cup of the Cheddar Ale Soup. The soup was really good, especially with the rainy and cold weather that evening! For our meals we ordered the White pizza and the Chicken Pasta. The pizza was out of this world good! Flavors were on point and the pizza dough is my absolute favorite. So warm and soft! I’ll get this pizza every visit. The Chicken Pasta was a different story. You can tell the dish had been sitting for some time waiting for the pizza to be ready. It was luke warm when we received it and honestly it reminded me of a cold pre-made pasta salad you could get at your local grocery store deli area. Hardly any chicken in the dish, pizza had more than the pasta dish did. Flavors were just okay. Again, cold and tasted pre-made. Honestly I forgot to even take a picture, I just wasn’t impressed. If you try Jolly Pumpkin definitely get a pizza or two.
