Welcome to The Bluebird in Leland, Michigan.
We are undergoing major reconstruction at the Bluebird, removing the old structure and building a beautiful new, outdoor-oriented building close to the Leland River that has been a significant part of Leland and the Bluebird since 1927.
We expect to be re-opening in Spring of 2024.
Thanks to all of our long-time customers, friends, fans, etc.!
We will post occasional progress reports on our website, Instagram, and Facebook pages.
For over 80 years, The Bluebird has been the gathering place in Leland for locals and tourists alike. From our casual 100-seat Tavern to our more elegant, scenic dining room on the banks of the Leland River, The Bluebird tradition of excellence is always apparent.
We would like our friends, staff, and customers of the Bluebird to know that we take our COVID protection/prevention very seriously. We are fortunate to have access to the most up-to-date information from the State of Michigan, the Leelanau/Benzie Health Department, the National Restaurant Assn, Michigan Restaurant Assn, and other sources. We monitor our staff and their health, including daily health checklists and questionnaires. We require masks, gloves, and sanitization procedures in order to keep us all safe. We will continue to update our information, and will proceed with the utmost caution when adding to our schedule and menu changes, as well as considering when to open parts of our outdoor or indoor public dining areas. Thank you for putting your trust in us and our staff.
