Small town restaurant, big time flavor. I saw reviews about the wait times for food and was even told in person. But decided to go anyway. Yes it can be aittle longer than we're used to but the food was great. Came out hot, nothing had to be sent back and it had both good taste and presentation. I opted for the chicken tenders because you can almost never go wrong with tenders. They were made in a way I had never seen with the accompanying sauce on the side, I'd say they were some of the best tenders I've ever had. The "HOO" fries were covered in garlic aioli and parmesan, I would have eaten just those by themselves. Service was polite and quick comparatively. Out waitress checked on us often and refills were prompt. The dining area was clean but. Little small but it's obviously a converted home so you can't be too picky. Plus they had back wrapped jalapeño poppers... is there really anything to complain about?
Our first time in and it was wonderful, the burger was delicious and our waitress was so friendly and helpful! The hoo fries are incredible! 10/10 would recommend for the personal friendly atmosphere!
Great burger joint that has a wide selection of specialty burgers, plus create your own. They also have some vegetarian choices along with pulled pork, cod, and shrimp choices. I had the 1/3 lb PB&J burger (bunless, served on a bed of greens), topped with bacon, smoked Gouda, thai peanut butter sauce, and a raspberry sauce. Their sauces are homemade, and taste it. The peanut butter sauce went surprisingly well with the burger and had great flavor, and was a creamy consistency. The raspberry sauce was a little sweet for me, but paired well with the peanut butter. I was hesitant about ordering, but glad I did. Very tasty. The burger was served with house made chips that were good. If you like burgers, this is a great choice of restaurant. Service was friendly and prompt. Will be back.
I travel throughout Michigan for work. The Nest burgers are Top 3 in the state. Nay, Top 3 in all the lands that nibble upon a Great Lake. If you’ve got a hankering for a burger, The Nest will quench all your desires. Fact!
A great local place for burgers. If there is one chance to eat at a place in Alpena, this is your best bet. I’d recommend any burger with bbq sauce as it was one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time. Decent prices, and great, friendly service. The truffle/garlic aioli fries were a hit at our table. The beer batter waffle fries were very crispy with the beer batter, which were divisive at our table. I’d recommend this restaurant if you’re in the mood for burgers. If you aren’t in the mood for burgers, you will be after you order one of these.
The food was top-tier. Very clean and inviting environment. My service was amazing. I would recommend.
We were visiting Alpena, looking for a place to eat. This restaurant came up on our Google search. The owner and our server were super friendly and nice. The place is small but cozy and seats more than you would think. The food was excellent!!! Highly recommend this restaurant. The four of us liked it so much we went back there again on Saturday but they didn't open until 4. You will love this place!

Although it is rated as being only a Four star Establishment in this review, please be aware that is only because the kitchen was closed when I arrived and has been unable to try the cuisine offered here!¡! Service and Atmosphere both receive Five s
Great food and great beer. We really enjoyed this place. There is seating both inside and out. The menu has a mix of sandwiches, salads, pizza and burgers. They also have options for kids. The outside dining area has a nice mural and hops and vegetab
After a subpar experience at another restaurant, we went here close to closing and explained out situation, they had our meal cooked and ready in less than ten minutes. Everyone was understanding and helpful, and they really salvaged the evening for
The recreation area is a old quarry and shipping dock. The area now has a boat ramp and numerous walking trails. Because of the past mining activity fossils of all kinds can be found. DNR passport required.
Always enjoyable. Actors and crew put their hearts into the performances. We've been season ticket holders since the 80s . The only downfall is accessibility for handicapped folks.
Cozy shop with local merch including upscale tshirts, sweatshirts, magnets, stickers, mugs and decor. I always stop in and purchase something when I'm in the area.
Awesome place! Oldest Miniature Golf course in the state! Someone mentioned that it is closed, that is not the case - it's only open in the summertime. Be sure to also check out The Hungry Hippie located just beside it!
What a hidden gem in my small town!!! . Absolutely amazing food . The potato soup I'm the bread bowl is literally 11/10. The food is very fresh and the staff is super nice. 10/10 most definitely recommend. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a bite
My husband and I drove here to go fishing early morning during labor day weekend. It was nice and quiet. The water was shallow so we only got bluegills. At night there's no lights and you can hear some movement in the woods it can be pretty daunting.
They have a beer for everyone. My wife ended up liking 3 beers and usually she likes one if that. Great Menu with Huge Portions at a great price. The service is impeccable. Lots of space during inclement weather, even more space when itâs nice out.
I donât normally do reviews, but this place deserves praise. I ordered the Golabki burger with the sweet potato waffle fries with a side of zesty sauce, and itâs my favorite dish in town. I called it in, walked in 15 minutes later sat down and it
This store almost never disappoints. They have an excellent meat counter and a really good dips homemade. Their meatloaf mix is to die forâ£ï¸ Even though they're a small IGA, Perch's most times have everything I need. You do have to watch for date
