Took 20 minutes just to get water. Actual drinks took about 30 minutes. Plates arrived at least an hour after placing the orders. One of the plates was completely incorrect. Executive chef Isaac came out with several excuses and ended by blaming the server. Communication between kitchen, servers, (there were no runners or bussers) was non existent. Management was nowhere to be found. Absolutely unacceptable. Good luck selling the business.

Traveled 2 hours to meet friends at Blue Cow for lunch. We had a table of three and there were…read morejust a few other diners. We were celebrating a 70th birthday and had a couple other friends face-timing for a few minutes. The owner came to our table and told us we were being "rude and irresponsible". Granted, we did have a few laughs with our phone friends but her approach was totally out of line for a business owner. How about, "Hey ladies, sounds like your are having a wonderful time, but could you not do the phone call much longer? And thank you for dining here today." She most certainly is not a professional. Only one waitress (no bartender) was new at her job, and doing ok. She was sweet and tried to fill drink orders, even though not trained on the bar. A couple small mistakes but we understood her situation. First and last time at the Blue Cow.

Belle's has become a staple and a must for me! Since moving to Big Rapids, I was always…read moredisappointed with the lack of quality coffee around. BUT Belle's sets the bar high and continually meets and exceeds all expectations. Drink quality and consistency are something that are very important to me, and if Belle does anything 10/10 it is this! Not only does she succeed in this area, Belle's also hires quality baristas. They are trained well, confident, welcoming and friendly. The people that work here make it 10x better than it already is. They always make an effort to know all their customers and not just by name. Walking into Belles Coffee House feels like walking into your home, warm, inviting, friendly, relaxing. Everything you want in a coffee house you will find it here! A place is truly special when you can walk in and instantly feel a sense of relaxation.

So, shopping at the Big Rapids location and I'm pretty appalled actually. I came in to do some…read moreshopping for sugar free/carb free cake that I'm making for a friend of mine's daughter. You know, kids have it hard enough these days but when you add in ANY type of illness it just makes it that much worse! So I'm hoping to make a beautiful and tasty cake for this young lady turning 13, whose friends regularly eat sugar filled cake. Of course Meijer doesn't sell these cakes and I'm not a professional baker but if I were I would certainly try to accommodate my customers if I didn't carry something they needed. Long story semi short... you can't SELL a cake board and plastic cover to a customer who is making something you don't? Really? First off way to fail at customer service! Second, I HATE Walmart but at least I can buy a plastic/cardboard cake plate from them!! Update: Meijer contacted me and apologized for this encounter. They stated normally they would not sell their supplies but in certain cases a team lead should be consulted. He stated in this case they would have sold me one cake board and dome. I really appreciate that they did this and they also stated they would bring this up with the staff working that day to clarify. In either case, I still made this girls cake and it turned out great!
