I ordered an extra slice b/c the menu said the eggs came with one homemade slice, vs 2 store-bought slices of toast. Holy moly, the toast was thick and delicious - I was *so* full after eating all of that! But a happy full :) I think they put margarine on the toast, which is a shame as it deserves butter. My husband got a grilled chicken sandwich, and said it was good. I was eyeballing the fried fish at other tables - it was all you could eat Friday Fish Fry. It looked absolutely delish, but I wasn't in the mood for fish. If we swing by this way again I'd definitely try it! It is a 'Christian' place, so if you're offended by religious quotes or images you may want to take a pass. It's not 'hit-you-over-the-head' religious, but some people may feel uncomfortable.

Stopped here for dinner on my way back from fishing the Pere Marquette. Ordered an "Original…read moreWeißbier," and liked it very much--nice body with just the right level of fruitiness. Got the Pub Pulled Pork sandwich with it, and this also was a winner. Nicely smoked piggy with a creamy sauce, enough to be satisfying but not too big to eat with your hands, as I've run into a some BBQ outfits. That's actually not doing the customer a favor! I appreciated having some non-stachy side options and chose the red cabbage for mine. It was warm, tender-crisp with just a slight lemony tang. Seating is mostly picnic table style--you may well share yours with another party, but not to worry. This is a place likely to dispel any bad mood someone might have walked in with.

Walked in at 5pm, no music, no people just the sound of the waitresses 4 kids pushing plastic grocery carts around the restaurant. Considered leaving right there until one of her kids gave me a menu. As I sat looking around at the Rand McNally framed map of the US and dusty piñatas for sale hanging from the ceiling I realized this could be really awesome or a night in the bathroom. I placed an order for a chicken quesadilla and two chicken tacos. The waitress then went and took her kids order, which was fries and chicken nugs. 30 min later her kids food came out and she yelled at the cook to hurry mine up. When I did get mine the quesadilla consisted of half block Velveeta (which I normally love) and half boiled chicken. My two chicken tacos came out as beef. Not one to complain, I dug in and my word, i shoulda went with my instincts to leave. The beef tacos main spice must have been sand since it had a strange crunch like I dropped them on the beach and stepped on them. The quesadila within 2 min solidified and was like saltwater taffy from Mackinac Island. I politely asked for a to-go box so I could dispose of elsewhere. Props to them for 40 plus years in business, my people from Cedar must never have been to a real Mexican restaurant or real restaurant general.

A Breakfast Buffet! Wow! I went back to the Big Boy in Cedar Springs after staying away for a long…read moretime, and guess what? It was way better this time. It felt like finding out Santa really DID bring you the good candy. The best part? They have a breakfast buffet. A real one! Those are super rare now, like spotting a reindeer in the wild. But Big Boy has it, and they keep it filled up with fresh food. The whole place looked cleaner too--nice floors, tidy tables, everything looking happy. On my first plate, I grabbed all the yummy classics: * Thick French toast with warm syrup (it tasted like a hug!) * A pancake with sweet cinnamon apples on top * Crispy bacon * Sausage links * Scrambled eggs The French toast was the star--golden and soft and perfect. The pancake was a little old, but the apples made it taste great anyway. The meats were tasty too, just not super hot. On my second plate, I went for the savory stuff: * Fried potatoes * More scrambled eggs * Polish sausage * More bacon and sausage * And then... SAUSAGE GRAVY ON TOP! (Yes, please!) The gravy was rich and peppery and made everything taste extra cozy. Some of the food was a little cool, though. And I saw a pan of cheesy hash browns that looked very burnt--like "left in the oven since last Christmas" burnt. The server was friendly and checked on me just enough--like a good elf who knows when you need more chocolate milk. All in all, this Big Boy is back to being a great place for a big, simple, happy breakfast. The buffet is fun, the place is cleaner, and the staff is kind. If they keep the food a little hotter and swap out old items faster, it'll be even better. If you love breakfast buffets, this one is worth a re-visit. Smiling's my favorite, and breakfast buffets might be my second favorite!

Ambiance was 2010s pop with a Roku that was playing old westerns that gave up halfway in between out meal and went to the Home Screen. Booths were well worn down and some were even duct tapped. Big boy is not known for being gourmet or even a nice place to eat, but definitely would not pass a health inspection. As someone who worked in the food service industry I was disappointed.
