We've been to Blake's in Armada for lunch at least ten times now, and every visit keeps us coming back for more. Today we tried the Blake's Apple Salad and the Taco Salad, along with a side of truffle fries -- everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The salads were full of great textures and balanced flavors, and the fries were a perfect savory treat. Even though the staff was running a little lean, the service remained friendly, attentive, and upbeat. They acknowledged the slight delay with genuine apologies, but honestly, we hardly noticed -- the atmosphere and food more than made up for it. Thanks for another wonderful experience, Blake's! We're already looking forward to our next visit. read more

Usually a solid stop for us 4th of July weekend- but this trip was a bit lacking. Sever kind of ignored us for 15 minutes when we were ready to order again. We ended up being so frustrated we asked another gentleman to cash us out so we could leave. Food was good.. service... 4/10. read more

Left of the main market. There was a 30 minute wait at the tasting room to sit inside for brunch on this Strawberry Fest Day. It was under 30 minutes wait for a table. I should have had a look at the menu. We were seated and looked at the menu offerings and realized the food options didn't appeal to us. read more

I absolutely love blakes orchard. For those who haven't been there Blake's consistently throws tons of festivals a year whether it be the strawberry festival the sunflower festival or even the lavender fest there are tons to pick and choose from and I highly recommend at least going to one My personal favorite has been the sunflower festival with the sunflower jam grilled cheese I know it doesn't sound the greatest but it is incredible and I am so happy I tried it. The tasting room is always a good place to go with varieties to drink from they even have a really good food selection and it's great to stop in there and get out of the heat when it's hot summer days read more

Pretty cool place. I can only imagine how busy it gets on the weekends in the fall. I went on a Thursday. Got the farm melt which was super good and big chunks of chicken. My dad got the seasonal menu item chicken pot pie and said he could eat that every day!!!! read more

Got the pretzel appetizer and a flight. The Cinnamon Donut Stout is one of the best stout's I have had. The blue raspberry cider and Homestead Honey whine was also very good. Live music is a great touch. The queso is absolutely delicious as well. read more

Came here to eat the day of the strawberry festival, place was PACKED to the max. We were told it would be a 45 minute wait for a table, put our names in and actually ended up only waiting 20 minutes until it was ready! Our waitress communicated to us that their system was down and all orders were backed up so food would take longer than normal, we were okay with that. But as a word of advice next time that happens they should have the hostess tell people upon adding them to a wait time. We enjoyed our food, and drinks however the waitress was constantly no where to be found. And when she was around she'd walk directly by our table and not check in on us prior to getting any food. We had to stop her and ask her for more water numerous times every time she'd go past us to other tables. During a heatwave in the summer this shouldn't even be an issue, be aware of all the tables seated in your area and continuously offer water. We also had the same issue when we were well and ready to leave, trying to find her so we could pay our bill and free up the table for another waiting party. Bathrooms were decently clean for the influx of people coming in and out that day. All in all I'd come back here, but not on a day an event is going on. read more

Lunch is so mid most the time and sometimes just sucks and the staff are pretty slow. I wouldn't recommend this place is u have high expectations and don't have much time to eat. read more

I love this place at the holidays- they have a fun & festive cocktail menu (a small one but very good offerings!) and of course the food- the giant pretzel is an IG dream! Reservations were long gone by the time we decided to head out so we took our chances at the bar and got lucky in a saturday afternoon The Santa Sangria was our fave- and of course, the cider flights Apple Pie was our favorite cider Skip the wine flight- we couldn't find a drinkable wine- it's not their forte- but tastes amazing in the sangria! Love the service and everyone in this place- so friendly! read more

TIP #1!! As soon as you get to the orchard, go in and put your name on the list in the Tasting Room. Then, go mosey around, snag some donuts, see the animals, whatever you fancy. The wait is at least over an hour (ours was 2 hours) and the only reason we got a seat is because I stalked the bar rail. Well worth it. Came here on a Saturday afternoon around 230ish. Cider flights are the way to go since they feature items not sold in stores. Burger & fries were delicious. Bartenders and other staff were welcoming and nice. Made great recommendations and made sure my food was gluten free. Highly recommend! read more

Okay, so you don't come here for craft cocktails and haute cuisine. It's a restaurant(ish) attached to a touristy apple orchard with a petting farm. Once you've adjusted to those expectations, this place is pretty good! The huge outdoor patio is great in the summer, Blake's ridiculously large selection of flavored hard ciders is tasty (El Chavo continues to be my favorite), and the food is on the better end of bar food -- I had a burger and a GIGANTIC soft pretzel that was delicious (the beer cheese sauce was great). Service was slow, but whatever. I'm sitting outside on an 80-degree day, drinking a cold El Chavo and listening to farm animals make noises. Life is good. read more

Was very disappointed on getting charged 20% utility for seven people. They usually give 20 to 22% but I know this waitress did not deserve it. I couldn't believe the horrible service we had 13 people at Cooper's Hawk and didn't have to pay 20% the food at Blake's not worth it. It's not that good. I tasted better food from a gas station read more

I ate at the bar during a busy time and found the bartenders to be very quick and attentive! I'd definitely recommend sitting down here instead of just getting drinks next door the next time you're at Blakes. The flights offer 4oz pours for beers/ciders and 3oz pours for wines- and are only $2 per drink! You can get up to 6 drinks in your flight. This pricing is amazing!! They have a wide selection of Blake's hard ciders, about 5 different beers to try, and roughly 8 different wines on their menu - so you'll have lots of options. As for the food... I only ordered a soup so I can't make too many claims. I remember the menu seemed that for a meal you'd spend about $15-25 per person. This bowl of corn chowder was maybe $7 and while it wasn't enough for a meal it tasted incredible! TLDR: Very quick bar service with wide selection and cheap prices! Food pricing a little high for what it is, but kitchen staff are quick. read more

I've been to Blake's a few times but I've never sat down and eaten their food before. I went yesterday night with group of friends, seven in total around 6pm. The wait was about an hour and a half so a few of my friends ordered drinks which were okay. Since it's now fall season it was cold and we were seated outside. The wait for our food was just as long and it was chilly. None of the heaters were turned on so my boyfriend asked our server if she could turn them on. She said she would try but the fuel was already low. It turned on but only for a few minutes before it died out. Most of us got burgers, truffle fries, and corn. The buttered corn was delicious and so were the fries, highly recommend! Overall, I would rather come in with a full stomach and focus on the other parts of Blake's. read more

Arrived at 11:15am with a group of 12 on a Monday. Was advised it'd be a 30 min wait. 90 minutes later we were seated. Pot pie was already sold out and food was served cold. The server kept drinks filled and delivered the party pretzels quickly. Will likely not dine here again in the future. The train ride to u pick was fun. Cider and donuts a must have. read more

I love coming to Blake's! There are so many different options and you can build your own flight. You have the choice of doing wine, beer, or ciders in your flight which is great if you are unsure of what you want. They have good food and if you are really hungry, the pretzel is the size of a pizza! The merch shop inside of the tasting room has plenty of ciders, cups, and cool clothing as well. read more

This review is more for the brunch than anything else. Although, I will say that we were here last week and the service was so bad we almost left. We were at the bar and not offered menus or anything. We had to get up and get menus that were left out as other customers left. We chose our drinks and looked over and discussed what we were going to order for food right in front of two bartenders. Finally someone took our drink orders and we had finished that drink before anyone even asked if we wanted to order food. We were about to leave when we were finally asked. Then the food took a ridiculously long time. And I ordered a burger and he ordered a club sandwich. Nothing that should take more than a few minutes to prepare. Anyway brunch. If you follow my reviews you know brunch is my absolute favorite thing ever. I'm definitely not a person who liked buffets though. But people race about this amazing brunch. Honestly. It was meh. There was some decent variety. But you only got the buffet. There were no omelet choices etc. I had assumed that you would get some choices. The food was decent. The ham was fatty. The chicken was good. The food was overall cold. I definitely would not recommend coming for brunch. I'm not sure what the fuss is about. The price wasn't bad. I think it's like $20 a person. But that with two cocktails and a bloody Mary plus tip came to $80. I didn't find any of it worth $80. And I'm one who is very willing to pay for quality. read more

Never received such awful service in my entire life. Sat down and waited a half hour with no one coming to the table after waiting so long we even went and asked if someone was going to help us. They said they would notify the server we had been waiting so long and then we continued to wait another 10 to 15 minutes again with no server or even drinks while other people around us were sat and served. AWFUL SERVICE read more

Overpriced food for the poor quality and service that leaves much to be desired. Sure you've got some nice decor and decent hard cider, but that's about where the positives end. We've hosted events here, the event planning staff fails at communication. It was a disaster from the start and come the day of there were so many things done wrong. No bar service, a server who just hid from us and a performance we were NOT notified of ahead of time. That was hilarious. So when my family decided to try Easter brunch this year I was reluctant but agreed because everyone else's minds were already made up. I peeped the menu the day before and was content with the offerings. When we got there, there was no ham carving station, no pan seared salmon, no waffles and no quiche. I was bummed because I've had the waffles before and they were honestly delicious. Instead we had some dried out chicken marsala, rock hard French toast, a prime rib carving station, overdone eggs and average desserts. All this for the low low (ha) price of $30/person. Y'all, it's Easter - where's the ham? Our server was a real peach too. She had an attitude and many times drinks sat empty and empty plates sat piled up. Also, what they fail to tell you ANYWHERE on the website is they're going to automatically charge 20% gratuity and you can't split bills with parties over X amount of people. Wouldn't it be great to state that ahead of time so all parties are aware and can plan accordingly? ... especially on a holiday weekend where families celebrate together? Crazy concept here. Gah, I don't even know why I waste my time with Blake's anymore. I'm from Armada, even graduated with part of the Blake family, and watched this entire place grow from commercialized strawberry picking in the spring and cider in the fall to the insanity it is today. The employee turnover is high here (I've got the inside scoop) and honestly there's such an obvious disconnect between owners, decision makers and the front-line staff. It would be great if Blake's got back to the old days where customer service and quality seemed to be at the forefront of the operations. Long story short, I'm done giving Blake's chances to get something right. While I know this won't hurt their bottom line, I can't justify giving them another dime. Next time we're invited we will politely decline and next time friends are in town and want somewhere local to try, we will be visiting a different establishment. read more

Food was all over the map, burgers were dry and the waitress said she could do nothing about it, pulled pork was dry as well. Soup and salads were good as was the chili but for the price the chili portion size could have been a little more. Great for craft drink lovers but no traditional drinks. Ambiance was typical, enjoyable but we were in an older age group so a little loud . Probably won't go back. It was a novelty. read more

We visited on quiet SuperBowl Sunday and had a delightful visit. Great service, and always great ciders. Pretty quiet in the tasting room leading up to close. We got a party pretzel that easily fed the four of us and then we shared three flights to try most of their cider options. This place is a treat and a must-do for any cider lover. But also some good beers and some wines for others as well! read more

The food was great. Our waitress (couldn't remember her named if I really tried) was hilarious and attentive. It was an overall great experience. There was a table time limit (peak season, early October) but they were kind and didn't force us to leave even when we went over. read more

Blakes is a staple Fall spot for pumpkins, donuts, and of course the hard cider! While here with some friends, we put our names on the Tasting Room waitlist. We were told it'd be a 3 hour wait, and while it sounds outrageous we did it anyway. We took the hayride out to the pumpkin patch and looked for some good carving pumpkins and took photos. We were out there for around 30-45 minutes and when we were getting on the hayride back to the main property we got notice our table was ready. So much faster than expected! We were seated outside which was a bit windy and chilly but the sun was out so it wasn't terrible and they had heat lamps as an option. We ordered drinks, our waitress delivered them, and we waited around 5-10 minutes for her to come back to take an order. We did an appetizer and hoped to have our entree ordered when it was delivered. Well, it was busy, being a Sunday, and a food runner brought out the appetizers instead. No biggie except our waitress never came to check on us or take an order until after we had already finished the appetizer. She takes the order, leaves the dirty dishes, and disappears for another 10+ minutes. She returns to deliver another drink for a couple of us and we do not see her again for quite some time. We are chatting and laughing and enjoying time together but the sun starts setting and the wind is constantly whipping through making the temps drop. The fit pits weren't an option as the ash and embers were getting picked up and blown around by the wind. We ask a busboy if we could get a heat lamp from nearby since there was one around empty tables and he said sure no problem give me a minute..well he disappeared and we never saw him again. My boyfriend drags one over himself near our table and low and behold it's out of fuel. Many tables around us were also complaining and freezing and some walked out before they could get an order put in. At this point we have been waiting for our food for 45 minutes or more, our waitress has not returned to our table, and the cider mill we wanted to stop in on the way out now closes in less than hour. After trying to get our waitresses attention (unsuccessfully) I go inside to the host stand and ask if the kitchen can box up our orders as we have waited too long, its unbearably cold to eat with no heat lamps, and we just want this to be over. The host said she will find our waitress and let her know. The host came to our table right away with boxes saying the food would be out soon so they couldn't box it and we can when it's delivered. Well, would you believe it when I said we waited another almost 10 minutes for the food runners to deliver? Food was cold to top it off. To be fair, I can't imagine how any food would arrive hot with how cold and windy it was that day. But it was still disappointing because should we have chosen to eat there, it would not have been warm food. The waitress "checks in" finally as we are boxing up our plates and asks "So, does this mean you want your checks then?" No apology or anything said about our complaints I know she was made aware of. I'm not in any hurry to return to the Tasting Room. The pricing was a little expensive for a chicken sandwich and not worth all the hassle and waiting we went through. Enjoy the cider mill, drinks, and u-pick, but be warned about the Tasting Room. read more

It was my first time at Blake's, and something I've wanted to check off my bucket list! The tasting room has a whole outdoor patio section that is super cute. The best part was the cider flights they have, I had the harvest flight which was all the fall ciders and they were SO good. Food was really good, we got a bunch of appetizers to share between us. Service was great at the bar, as well as the wait staff. There was so many things to do at Blake's! Lunch, wine tasting, cider tasting, the cider mill, u pick flowers and fruit. I will definitely be back :) read more

First time coming for food. Came on a Friday morning was super busy with schools and young children so plan to have to wait. Waited about 1 hour for a table but there was plenty to do and see around. I got the crispy boneless wings, they were soo good and the waitress was super nice let me get sauces on the side of each one since I never had any sauces before. The Blake's apple salad was enough for 3 people, with great flavor. The only negative thing is the water they have tasted like well water but worse not the biggest deal, I'm sure not many people get the water here. read more

We can here on a whim during Memorial Day weekend, and honestly, it was a great decision. We got a few appetizers and I also got the grilled Brie cheese. This was literally one the the best carb overloads of a meal I've had in a long time. The service was a little slower, but the food definitely made it worth it. I'd highly recommend them. Definitely check out the menu ahead of time though if you're a picky eater as it can be quite a limited menu. read more

We LOVE Blake's!! Holy smokes - we could live on that farm! They have everything you could ever want/need: a kids funland, hard cider tasting room, produce market for goodies, and a restaurant that is superb. My family and I visited in a non-busy Friday afternoon and we didn't want to leave! We had so much fun. We started at the little market to grab one of their famed cherry slushies and cherry donuts. We were not disappointed. My daughter had the cherry slushie and I opted for the apple cider one. Both were delicious but my daughter commented that the cherry was a bit tart for her taste. The donuts though - OH MY GOD. I could live on those alone for the rest of my life!! Just perfection. You need to get a dozen when you visit - just trust me. We spent the rest of our time at the funland, and it was pretty amazing. All of it is outdoor but plenty of trees for shade. There was even a little covered area designated to change diapers - GENIUS! I couldn't pull my kids away from the large jumpy thing (?) because it was so much fun! We literally had the time of our lives and we can't wait to come back. So glad I purchased season passes. We had lunch at the tasting room and everything was superb. Just all around delicious and the service was amazing (Hi, Stacy!). We had an excellent waitress who was welcoming and accommodating. We started with the caprese flatbread which was so good - just the right amount of pesto and the mozzarella was delicious. My husband had the spiked burger with truffle fries. I had the turkey panini and apple salad, and my daughter had the pepperoni flatbread. The portions were HUGE. We ate to our hearts content but still has tons to bring home. And I'm happy to report that even after the 45 mins drive home, my panini still tasted amazing :) We also sampled some ciders and ended up buying a case to bring home - if you are able to try the apple pie cider, don't pass it up! It tastes like warm apple pie but chilled and surprisingly refreshing. My husband had the coffee beer and he loved it. We wanted to buy a case of it too, but it was wasn't in stock. Next time! All in all, we had wonderful visit and can't wait to return. Everything about Blake's is awesome. read more

Updated review! What a difference 10 years makes! In the last 10 yeara the tasting room has grown tremendously, and for the better. They now have a full menu of food and even have vegan and gluten free options. The ciders have improved as well and they have some really great options, my favorite is El Chavo and my husband loves the caramel apple cider. During the fall, be prepared to wait for hours for a table. We usually come mid afternoon, put our name on the list and then grab a cider and sit outside by the fire. On our most recent visit, it was a 3 hour wait for a table. They text you when your table is ready. Luckily there's lots to see and do while you wait! read more

This location is pretty far from where I live especially if you want to enjoy some adult beverages but my partner and I love making the drive coming here. Plenty of space to park, decent amount of food choices and of course the alcoholic ciders are delicious. We had dinner one night and it took incredibly long for anyone to take our order and especially for our food to come out (just a sandwich and boneless wings.) It won't stop me from coming here i always have a nice time but the food and service isn't 5/5. read more

I think the fame is getting to their heads or they can't keep up with demand. We had a horrible experience. We came here on Father's Day and it was a total miss. The service was super slow. We ended up being there for almost two hours and it wasn't very busy at 6:00 on Sunday night. We were sitting down for about 15 minutes before the server came to greet us and take drink orders. We ordered an appetizer and she disappeared again for another half an hour before taking out food orders. Husband ordered a second beer and it took another half hour to come out and we have to ask again for it. They have also transitioned to cheap plastic silverware with tiny napkins, which we did not appreciate. Once the food came out all 6 people said it was not hot like it had been sitting. I was served the kids mac and cheese and had ordered the adult portion. I asked the server if it was supposed to have breadcrumbs since the menu said that and she mumbled something and said she would find out. 20 minutes another mac and cheese came out, also cold and with no breadcrumbs as the menu stated, but with unmelted and sweaty shredded cheese on top. It was also the very same bland noodles and sauce so I am not sure why it took that long. My dad and sister ordered the prime rib medium rare and they came well done with no horseradish. My mom ordered the BBQ chicken and it was supposed to come with bbq sauce and it did not. She had to ask and then we were charged for a side of sauce. The server never asked how the food was and was very disorganized. The plates were never cleared, my dad had to clear them himself. A big disappointment for what was supposed to be a special day. read more

Blake's tap room all you can eat breakfast buffet is back with a price increase of 5 dollars (15 to 20)! Our families enjoyed a nice buffet breakfast on Sunday! I was thrilled to have this breakfast option back! However, they only received 4 stars because the biscuits were under cooked, the bacon and sausage were over cooked and they didn't offer the cinnamon rolls as before... Also, the vegetarian options seemed to be lacking - making the potato pancakes with meat was "different." I know this is just fairly new being back, so I hope they get back to the ways of the past. This was my favorite buffet spot. Wish they would offer iced tea... big negative that they don't! read more

Wow - I remember going to Blake's for years but how has it changed for the worst. It could be so special but it's nothing more than a $ grab. First - Parking, how hard is to get someone to direct parking so it doesn't take 30 minutes to park and 1 hour to exit. The few law enforcement are doing their best but it's horrible. Second - let's pay 20 per person to ruin your shoes, go in some poor play structures and some dirty bounce houses. This - let's go apple picking for 40 a bag + 5 a person for a "hay ride" with poor service. You hungry yet? Let's wait hours for the tap room, or wait in a line for some 5 dollars fries. This is the most poorly run business in all of Michigan, but they don't care. There will always be some sucker ready to pay 20 to enter, 5 for a hay ride, wait an hour for parking etc, only to have their dirty play structures ruin clothes, eat the worst food in the nation and leave thankful they made it on to Romeo plank. What an embarrassment when it could be amazing. I thought Ray Gunn was bad read more

I want to like this place, but the food is just meh. We went on NYE 2023. They had a limited menu and two signature specials - prime rib and chicken cordon bleu. My family all ordered the chicken only for it to be the frozen pucks you buy for $2 at Kroger. When I contacted them later, management begrudgingly sent a gift card but it's gone unused. In general, their food is blah each time we've been. Drinks are good and the idea is fun, but they've just gotten too big for their britches. Trying to be the popular guy but forgoing quality. read more

Visited Blake's again and I had to increase my star rating to a solid 5 star! Our dining and cider experience was perfection. Came during a Friday in March and the lent religious observance was happening - so fish it is for dinner!. I heard that Blake's had an all-you-can eat fish, so we had to try it out. I am so glad we did! The tasting room was quiet and we were seated right away by the TV bar which was great for March Madness watching. We arrived around 530p and by 6-630p the place was starting to get packed. Jen was our waitress and she was great. Service was great and she was attentive and friendly. We love hard cider, so Blake's is the place to be. Happy hour went until 6p, so we indulged in flights of hard cider. Going with a flight was a great option because we wanted to try a ton of hard ciders. We also were offered some ciders that they were experimenting with which included Cider Dazes and a blueberry cider. The drink menu is vast and has something for everyone - cider, beer, wine, and cocktails. But having a hard cider on tap is the best! My favorite flavors were Traffic Jam - trifecta of berries and the other is Great Blakes which is coffee infused - wow! I was also impressed with the food menu. I did not realize how many food options they have. Lots of good apps and entrees. However, we and pretty much every other entree coming out of the kitchen was the fish. The fish was so good! I don't know how you could eat more than the 4 pieces that come with the meal but such a good value with the all-you-can eat! Some of the best fried fish I have had in a long time. The breading was thick but not overpowering the fish. The fish was tender and falling apart. French fries came with the meal and they were buried under the 4 pieces of fish. My only complaint was that the fries had good flavor but were a little soggy - I think from the fish sitting on top. The tartar sauce was yummy and tangy and the coleslaw was a nice addition. We had a great dining experience eating fish, drinking hard cider, and watching March Madness. We also checked out the shop in the tasting room and made our own hard cider 6 pack. Blake's is where it is at! read more

Tried the brunch today with a group of friends and loved it! Lots of choices, delicious food, and always delicious drinks. Perfect spot to hang out with friends every time. Left with a couple caramel apples and donuts from their gift shop so I have goodies to take home and enjoy later. read more

Blake's Tasting Room is my go-to treat for cider, beer, and wine tasting. It is worth the drive every time. They have an incredible beverage selection, and it's a great value. The drink prices are out of this world. The rose cider was only $2 a glass today. You can have small pours, flights, or full size drinks. Today I had the jamosa which is their traffic jam cider and OJ, a rose cider, and a flight of six ciders and beers. The donut stout was sumptuous and came topped with a donut. Wow! The Great Lakes coffee cider is a favorite. Their coconut beer was super refreshing. The tart cherry ale was crisp and very cherry forward. I can't say enough good things about the drink menu. It's constantly changing, and I have much to look forward to for next time. The food is equally delicious. The kids look forward to eating here. Their charcuterie plate is one of the best I've had and a great snack. The giant party pretzel is a party for the table. It's highly shareable and you will most likely have leftovers. It comes with mustard and cheese sauce. Their cheese curds and ranch are killer. Very goey with good cheese pull. The bbq chicken flat bread is cheesy and tangy. Their desserts hit the spot. The kids crave the homemade apple pie and cheese. The crust is flakey and has that nice sugar crunch on the top. They have other rotating specials, or you can get donuts and ice cream in the cider mill shop next door. The servers are all very kind. Today the place was not busy, but the service was slow. I'm not sure if it was a backup in the kitchen but it seemed to be moving on island time, so come ready to relax! This place can get very busy, and beware, during seasonal events they either alter the menu or don't serve food at all. Always check the website or phone first. The menu also changes seasonally, but we've never been disappointed by what we've ordered. Depending on when you come, Blake's has fun sights and activities for the entire family. You could totally make a day out of it. So if you are doing more than just the tasting room plan on a few hours of fun. read more

Great food, atmosphere and service. This eatery is a gem of a find. They have a great selection of all your favorite Blakes wine and cider and they even have an awesome gift shop. The decor is adorable and the food was well presented and delicious. We started with chips, salsa and Mexicali dip. This was very good. I got the Mac n cheese with pulled pork - I can say hands down this is one of the best I have had. The pulled pork was perfectly seasoned with Blakes BBQ sauce and cooked perfectly. The cheese sauce On the Mac had a delicious cider flavor. My husband had chicken strips and fries.Their was a healthy serving of chicken and the fries were perfectly crispy. But the best part was the slaw - it was fantastic. I stopped in the gift shop and picked out six ciders to try at home. We will be back :) read more
