Cottage Inn Pizza

Fantastic food, drinks, and service…read more - - - - - - - - August, 2026 Visit We went on a road trip, from Missouri to Michigan, for a family event, and on Friday night we joined countless others in attending the outdoors concert in downtown Midland, MI. We set up our chairs on the street next to Molasses, near the stage. And... we became hungry and benefitted from Molasses. We were able to order and enjoy the wonderfully tasty burnt ends before they were sold out; we also enjoyed some tasty street corn and some adult and non-alcoholic beverages. The staff is fantastically helpful and friendly. We look to return on our next visit. Thanks, Molasses!

Overall not bad, although I've certainly had better in other places…read more The decor is right on point with what you would expect in a barbecue joint. They all seem to have the country Honky Tonk bar appearance, and I suppose that's what people expect. The staff was reasonably attentive, although they weren't terribly busy the night I've visited so I suppose they didn't have a lot to do, lol. I ordered the ribs with a side of coleslaw. Overall the ribs were fine, but they weren't quite as tender as I'm used to. As I recall the coleslaw was adequate but nothing special. Pricing was a little on the high side, but I get it that it cost money to run a place like this. Overall I don't think I would be inclined to come back.

Interesting combination of sauces for the wings but I normally get honey BBQ anything. The menu is varied and I believe just about anyone could find something they like. I ordered the honey BBQ salad on the lunch menu, along with buffalo chips and a drink. Unfortunately they have Pepsi products but with my diet Pepsi I requested limes . Hubby ordered the steak quesadilla. My salad was good and just the right size for lunch. The Buffalo chips could have been crispier and I got them plain (you can get a couple different flavors on them). The steak quesadilla was good but instead of the pico, or maybe in addition to, salsa would have been great. For our meals we had a $26 bill. A little high for lunch but comparable to what's around. Our server was a little slow on the drink refill when hubby requested it but came with a soda refill before I had to ask. We did ask for a tea to go and that was also slow in coming (but I was Yelping and hubs was digging up for the rewards program) . She was however friendly and pointed us to the rewards program. Nothing too fancy for the restaurant decor, basically bar atmosphere. Plenty of parking and the interior is large with a large patio. Nice place to come for a casual meal.

Horrible service and horrible food. I ordered a pizza and lasagna. The internet advertises they use ricotta cheese and when we got our order there was no Ricotta in it. We called the restaurant and I talked to Matt the assistant supervisor he told me sorry about the order but there is nothing he is going to do to correct my order, Matt was also very rude and I also asked him how they made their lasagna and he had no idea how it was made. As a manager of a restaurant the employees should know 100% how the food is prepared. Also the food was cold when delivered as well. I will never order from them again. Also, management needs to train their staff to treat customers with good customer service. We use to be big fans and order from them frequently, however they have now permanently lost our service. read more

We use to order here every month if not more on Pizza night. Our favorite pizza was one suggested by an employee when we called in the first time. We were hooked. That is all we ordered for the next 3 years. Just called in last week and the staff refused to make it even though they have everything to make it. Very frustrating. They will not admit that they made it. Very rude to us even though we tried to order what they suggested for us for 3 years! Will not go there ever again. Lost business! read more

The pizzas are tiny (not unexpected for cauli crust) but at a $17 and $20 price point, what a joke. The antipasto salad was $14 but came to us in a tiny take out container. This barely fed us.

The last 3 or 4 times we had gotten it they forget the roasted garlic cloves which is our favorite part of the pizza. How do you not know your menu items...one mistake is excusable, but multiple times on different occasions with a key topping? We stopped going for about 5 months due to these recent experiences but decided to go back the other day and had yet another disappointing experience. Ordered the specialty Hot Pesto Roni pizza - prior to arriving I had saw this online and thought it sounded good so we gave it a shot. We also ordered mozzarella spears to come out with the pizza. We get the pizza and there is no pizza sauce on it - completely dry and hard to swallow. I notify the waiter and he even looked baffled like "wow I've never seen that before" - He comes back and told us his manager said this pizza isn't supposed to have pizza sauce on it (so it's essentially just cheese bread with toppings?) I then pull up their menu on my phone and show him online that it says "pizza sauce" as included in the toppings. He then showed me on the restaurant menu at the table that the Pesto Roni does not list pizza sauce as a topping and says he will tell the manager to update the description online (it's still not changed). So we end up getting cold marinara sauce to dip our pizza in which left much to be desired. The mozzarella spears we ordered did not come out until probably 15-20 minutes after our pizza with was odd considering the place was pretty empty and they're just breadsticks with cheese..was only one oven running? Waiter was not very attentive to us either, was preoccupied with prep work most of the time. $75 for a pizza, mozzarella spears, boneless wings, and a kids Alfredo meal. Just not worth it on top of the lousy experience. This place used to be my favorite pizza option in town. Sad
