But this one does have more buildings. The food was really good! Had a pulled pork sandwich that came with chips. I also tried the cherry coffee (it was ok. I wish it was sweet on its own because I think the cream I used hurt my stomach). Loved that they had a changing table in the bathroom! Their decor is really cute and they have many beautiful flowers! We purchased cherry jam and got our 2nd Cherry Republic passport stamp!

The bulk of my criticism comes from what appears to be an oversell on the "cherry" part of their…read morefood. The "Loaded Lug", "cherry bomb ranch", and the basket of fries with the "cherry BBQ spice" all disappointed in terms of their cherry flavor. The food was otherwise tasty, but we were left confused about the cherry part. The ice cream on the other hand is a notch up, as long as you're into a sweet cherry taste. Would highly recommend getting a scoop or two (pictured), especially for the price (the second scoop is only like $0.40 more!). Overall, beautiful property and a lively atmosphere, but just disappointed with the food.

Prices are very reasonable for the amazing product that we are able to enjoy so much. I won't buy my chai tea from any other place! Thank you, Great Lakes Tea and Spice! See you next time.

Glen Arbor's secret - a real deal Jewish deli shop with enormous sandwiches and variety of bagels…read more Get there before 10 AM because they do sell out TIp: order the half sandwich or if you and your dining companion like the same sandwich just get one and split it. At about 14 a2 to $15 apiece this is one of the rare exceptions where it is a good value because you will get two meals out of each sandwich. We ordered a Tripoli (ham, turkey, salami, and provolone, lettuce, and tomato) and a Gaza ( curried chicken, lettuce, tomato, shredded carrot, and peas) both on rye bread. Both sandwiches were made with high-quality ingredients and we would definitely recommend either of them. Again, I cannot stress it enough, the sandwiches are enormous, and you really should share. it feels like a grammar school, kind of a cafeteria, it's modern and clean, but not particularly in inviting or appealing or charming in any way. Service was patient with his first time, kind, and very helpful. Recommend!! I'd like to return in the future and try their bagels. I'm disappointed that I came at lunchtime and all they had left with cinnamon raisin and I'm not a fan of raisins so... Next time!

While the ice cream was good (I got the Michigan Pot hole), they charge $2 extra for a waffle cone that is not homemade...they're serving Joy brand waffle cones at $2 per pop.
