What sets your business apart from your competition?

Answer

The quality and consistency of our food and service sets us apart. Our customers know they will receive a delicious meal and that our staff will make their dining experience as perfect as possible. Most customers seem to build relationships with our staff at Dinghy's. I think it creates a great connection and a wonderful feeling when they come back through the door.

Question

What do you contribute to your community?

Answer

Dinghy's owner, Steve, is actively involved in many community events and activities. He is currently Vice President of the Frankfort-Elberta Chamber of Commerce. He's also president of the non-profit sailing school on Crystal Lake. Recently Dinghy's has begun to accept non-perishable donations for our local food pantry in return for 10 percent off of their guest checks. We are also beginning a campaign that encourages our staff to volunteer at local agencies within the area. We will be donating our time at a different non-profit each month. If you know of an agency that could use help that is located in the Benzie county area, please contact the restaurant to receive a "Dinghy's Cares" application.
