“don't miss the best live music in the North!”

Originally called McCarthy Hall, the building was constructed by Alanso McCarthy in 1875. It was a billiard hall that served “intoxicating beverages.” As a male-only establishment, the Sampling Room offered enticing items such as cigars, wines, and liquors to customers. Serving a wide array of guests from around the world since 1910, including the legendary Ernest Hemingway. Surviving prohibition and volatile Northern Michigan winters, the City Park Grill is rich with history, but the menu is absolutely contemporary. Don't miss the best live music in the North.
