Remember the bridge-jumping scene in Blues Brothers? It happened right next to Calumet Fisheries. The best way to get there is to drive—mostly because your car will double as your table when you leave with your bounty. One of the state's few remaining smokehouses, Calumet smokes all of its own seafood in-house using only natural wood.
The vibe: This smoke shack was born when the steel industry was thriving and the area was populated by hungry day laborers.
The food: Set at the base of the famous Blues Brothers bridge, this little white box brings in customers from all around for smoked shrimp, trout and sable, which are always available.
The drinks: A tiny selection of pops, iced tea and bottled water is on offer.
Time Out tip: You’ll see folks sitting in their cars eating their picks out of paper bags, a quintessential part of the experience. You'd be wise to do the same.
