Shooki’s Review of Lucky Bean Coffeehouse

By Shooki · Source published October 2026

0/10 Shooki because Lucky Bean doesn’t have a restroom. But probably my #1 coffee stop on Mackinac Island. Two things can be true at once.

Does that mean Lucky Bean is bad?

Absolutely not.

We’re on Mackinac Island this weekend, my friends, and if I’m starting the morning with coffee, this is where I’m going.

Forget the Starbucks bullshit.

Walk one block off Main Street and you’ll find a tiny coffee shop tucked away from some of the tourist chaos, pulling what I think is the best cup of coffee on the island.

The place is small.

Very small.

Which means it fills up quickly, so get there early.

But that’s part of the charm.

Good coffee. Friendly people. Locals mixed with tourists and seasonal workers. Enough personality that it actually feels like Mackinac instead of something that could’ve been dropped into any resort town in America.

They take the coffee seriously too.

Michigan-roasted beans. Pour-overs. Espresso. Island-specific drinks. House flavors.

The kind of place where somebody behind the counter actually gives a damn about what ends up in your cup.

And the merch?

Dangerously good.

I came close.

Maybe next time.

So yes…

0/10 Shooki.

But probably my #1 coffee stop on Mackinac Island.

Two things can be true at once.

Grab your coffee.

Use the public restroom first.

Then go enjoy an island where the horses still outnumber the Ubers.

Best for

  • What I think is the best cup of coffee on the island
  • Michigan-roasted beans, pour-overs and espresso
  • Getting there early before the tiny shop fills up

Less ideal for

  • An on-site restroom
  • A roomy coffee shop that won’t fill up quickly

No restroom. No Shooki. 0/10. They’ll very politely point you toward the public restrooms down the street, but my rating is based on what the establishment itself provides.
