Jolly Pumpkin Café and Brewery maintains that great beer paired with great food leads to even greater times.

THE BEER: Crafted with open fermentation, oak aging, bottle conditioning, and a whole lotta love, the beer choices are reason enough to stop by. Try one of their year round productions, such as the award-winning and one of Men’s Journal "2010 Top 25 Beers of the World," Oro de Calabaza (a Franco-Belgian style spicy and peppery golden ales). Or enlighten your palette with one of their seasonal brews, like La Parcela--a delicious brew packed with real pumpkins and hints of spices that's only available for a few short months.

THE FOOD: Way before it became a popular sensation, Chef Maggie Long believed in the regional food movement. Jolly Pumpkin Café and Brewery draws its ingredients from places like the Ann Arbor Farmer’s Market, Whitmore Lake’s John Harnois Poultry Farm, Needle Lane Farms, Corridor Sausage Co. in Detroit, Rosewood Farms, Back Forty Acres in Chelsea, Avalon Breads in Detroit, and has been working a 130 year-old sourdough starter from the Mill Pond Bakery in Chelsea.

Evidence of quality and taste can be found in a wide variety of menu items at Jolly Pumpkin Café and Brewery. Start off with an array of appetizers, soups and salads, including the mouthwatering Truffled French Fries (fried crisp, with truffle salt and fresh rosemary, served with a garlic aioli), and two types of snack boards – the Butcher’s (cured meats, cheeses, roasted & marinated vegetables, olives, and fresh breads) or the Gardner’s (beer friendly cheeses with roasted & marinated vegetables, olives, and fresh breads).

After enjoying your meal at Jolly Pumpkin Cafe and Brewery, head directly across the street for a unique Celtic celebration. The hugely popular Irish Christmas in America show, now in its 9th season, features top Irish music, song and dance in an engaging performance rich in history, humour and boundless energy.

Item Special Note

Jolly Pumpkin Cafe and Brewery is located at 311 S. Main and The Ark is located right across the street at 316 S. Main Street, both in the heart of downtown Ann Arbor. The Ark's doors open at 7:30 p.m.
