Good menu selection. Now open for dinner (as well as breakfast and lunch). Very popular (so sometimes there is a line), but owner has plans to expand. A great choice! More

The soups were good though the bread was typical white bread & not too interesting. Friendly staff & decor make it worth a visit. More

I really like this place. We sat at the bar for lunch. We each had soup and a Michigan crafted beer. The menu is really good and local, and the bartender was super nice and helpful. Parking is difficult due to location. Nice place to relax for lunch or a casual dinner. More
