    Hobo (hash) skillet.  Three eggs.  A very generous serving.
    Doug R.

    Hobo (hash) skillet. Three eggs. A very generous serving. They make their own corned beef, but it was an extremely fine chop - not my favorite. I could not taste any peppers or onions. Would not order again. Served hot! Very hot! Thank you very much. Another plus - sourdough toast. Ordered it dry. It arrived wet with butter. Very wet. Promptly replaced. Clean dining room and restroom. Will I return? Yes, but not for the corned beef hash.

    What a cute little cafe in downtown Northville. We've stopped in a few times for breakfast and it's such a homey little spot. Great service and the food is delicious. They have all the traditional items on the menu. I highly recommend the omelettes! This place does get packed in the morning so plan appropriately!

    Our waitress was so kind, and she kept checking back in for coffee refills. The food was good, I got a vegetarian omelette and it tasted good, I would recommend it! However, the veggies were folded inside the omelette, kind of like a burrito, so it kept falling out. Usually the veggies are baked into the omelette itself. My friend got the country omelette and he didn't have the same issue, but his has less toppings than mine too. Overall, taste was good but it could've been better. The place gives diner vibes instead of the usual fancy brunch place vibes.

    Everything is fresh! The food is fresh, they have fresh fruit for the food instead of just fruit filling, and fresh squeezed orange juice! The scrambled eggs were delicious. The service is definitely some of the fastest I've experienced. It's a small, cute breakfast place. The only downside was we ordered hash browns, a pretty typical breakfast food, and were told they don't have hash browns but I see them in the reviews here and I've gotten them at their other location so I'm not sure if this is a recent change or why they would have gotten rid of them.

    Early Bird had been on our radar for about a year. Believe it or not we got in without waiting on New Years Eve, around 11:30 am. The vibe was breafast or maybe it was just all the cute chickens decor. Service was prompt, friendly and accurate. We both ordered the country omelette which was fantastic. Will return again.

    This is a cute little diner perfectly placed on the edge of downtown Northville. I have visited both on the busy weekend and in the middle of the work week for breakfast. It gets pretty busy on the weekends and since this diner is so small, you'll be waiting for a while standing (nearly sitting on top of) the tables by the entrance. I recommend keeping this as a mid-week spot instead as it is far more enjoyable. My first visit, I ordered an omelette and the second I did their pumpkin spice French toast (on special for fall). I would not recommend the French toast as it was too rich the more I ate it. The rest of the menu seems like your usual diner quality and selection - not bad but not amazing either. I would definitely come back just for a quiet low key breakfast during the week.

    This is by far my favorite place. They are so fast and the order is correct every time. I love their coffee and their sausage links. I go there anytime I get the chance. My boys have been going here since they were born for over 12 years! The staff is friendly and efficient. Keep it up Early Bird!

    Two people on my work team are from Northville, and are always talking about early bird. We finally made it out there for a work lunch and they were very accommodating of our group of 10. The food was good, I had one of the skillets. I would recommend this cute restaurant for brunch.

Fries were scratch made with a uniques shape that had visual grooves that I had not seen at any other restaurant. Aside from the unique shape they were nice and crispy and quite tasty in their own right. Cleary a superior burger and fries versus other restaurants that are in the area. Aside from the food I had their Old School Margarita and their Deadwood Old Fashioned. The Margarita was just OK in my opinion. Basis of the drink was 1800 tequila which I am not a fan of and Cointreau. Seemed to lack the Agave Forward notes I look for and lime component was not as bright as I like it either. However, the Deadwood Old Fashioned with the Woodford Reserve Bourbon was outstanding and definately one of the better made ones in the area. The restaurant itself has a nice ambiance about it with rustic western vibe which I really like. There is also a large outdoor dining area to take advantage of the nicer days which is something to consider if that is what you are looking for. Relative to staff, they are so friendly and outgoing with excellent follow up throughout the meal and clearly a strength of this business. Overall a great dining option in the Northville area and worth checking out if you are in the area.

The cocktails are stunning, the food (whether brunch or dinner) is consistently memorable, and apparently every plate is so beautiful that I feel compelled to photograph it. Beyond the food, the service is always exceptional. The staff strikes that perfect balance of polished and warm, making every visit feel like a special occasion. And then there's the atmosphere. The abundant natural light, thoughtful seasonal décor, and the undeniable gravitas of a beautifully restored former bank create an experience that feels both elegant and welcoming. The Ledger is absolutely worthy of being a destination restaurant for celebrations and milestones. But the biggest compliment I can give it is this: we don't save it only for special occasions. Whenever we're nearby, we make a point to stop because the food, drinks, and experience are just that good and the seasonal specials never stay as long as you'd hope. And of course, the speakeasy downstairs is always the perfect end to the night.

I then consulted Yelp and we decided to give Table 5 a try. The interior is very pretty, decorated nicely with a good mix of tables to allow some privacy. We opted to dine outside because it was such a beautiful evening in Northville. We were seated at a cozy table and met with a hospitable server who made the meal even better. They start you off with house made bread with whipped, flavored butters. The special butter of the day was banana bread flavor. Oh my, what a treat! I love the creativity and the effort! It was very much appreciated! We had a lovely and I mean very lovely appetizer which was the whipped ricotta with peaches, toasted pistachios and blueberries. It was served with herbed bread and this was nothing less than spectacular! I couldn't stop dipping. The mains were the filet with whipped mashed potatoes along with asparagus. This was devoured and resulted in being a member of the clean plate club. Kudos to the chef, perfect steak! We also had the wedge salad with green goddess dressing. This was really tasty, fresh and filling. We were so full and satisfied so their famous butter cake will have to wait until our next visit. I hope that will be in the very near future! Table 5 is definitely on our favorite restaurant list!
