 Sleder’s
Traverse City, Michigan YEAR OPENED: 1882 OWNERS: Deb and Brian Cairns CUISINE: Burgers, Mexican, Perch, and Smelt SALES: $1.5 million AVERAGE CHECK: $15 Sleder’s began in the heart of what was once known as Slabtown, a working class neighborhood in Traverse City, Michigan. It has remained a staple of the area’s culinary community since 1882. Its décor is as recognizable as its mahogany bar, which is the biggest in town and a well-trafficked hangout for Red Wings games and all things Michigan football. Numerous hunting trophies and stuffed animals decorate the walls at Sleder’s, and many patrons kiss a moose named Randolph for good luck. The “On the Porch” Concert Series has hosted renowned musical acts for over 20 years. |
