Dockside Market is known for its high-quality jerky, especially cajun turkey and beef, and offers great lunches throughout the week. Customers appreciate the friendly service, with staff like Meaghan and Jacob quickly helping regulars, and Bobby making the best sausages and jerky. The deli sandwiches are fresh, large, and very tasty, making it a popular spot for lunch. The market also provides drinks before boat trips and snacks for the day. While some mention that the beef jerky quality can vary, overall, it is a favorite for good food, friendly service, and convenient location.
Nice small lakeside market, many good drinks, a deli area with sandwiches, and lots of local food and products

I was looking for a special edition of alcohol and couldn't find it anywhere until I called Dockside, well worth the trip from anywhere around Traverse City. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff.
