I usually bring a pizza or a ham and cheese pretzel pocket to go and they reheat in the oven very well. The pretzel dough has a hint of sweetness and its very soft and chewy with a crispy crust. Not overly salty too. I prefer it over Auntie Ann's and wish there was a storefront in the Chicago suburbs. The service here is always with a friendly smile. I've met the owner a few times, and she is always pleasant to speak with. The price is within reason for the amount of food you get. Great place to come with friends for a quick bite.

And gravy, the pocket was quite small, and yet cost 9 dollars..plus extra for cheese. Of course, it wasn't very hot.

When Perfect Twist Pretzels are taken out of their warmers, they taste like they just got done being made! The workers are friendly and always get pretzels out quick; I rarely have to wait longer than a few minutes to get my pretzels. This is my go-to pretzel place. They are right in Coppes but have their own section of the parking lot so if you don't want to go all the way through coppes you don't have to.

I love soft pretzels, especially Amish soft pretzels (see JoJo's Pretzels review in Shipshewana for…read morereference), so going to Ben's Pretzels when in Michigan City was a no brainer. My best friend got a kit to make them at home and you get a free jumbo pretzel when you do that. You can also earn free pretzels through their phone app, which will come in handy for a pretzel lover like me. They were handling to covid regulations pretty well, even for a semi small place. I really enjoyed my pretzel, which I didn't even need dipping sauce for. My best friend enjoyed hers which I was happy about because she said she had never been to a Ben's Pretzels before. I'll definitely be coming back for another pretzel.

On any trip to Lighthouse outlet mall, I like to stop here for a pretzel mid morning to carb load for the final surge of shopping. I felt kinda bloated after eating the giant pretzel but the feeling soon passed. They have 10-12 different pretzel dips, savory or sweet, lots of choices.

We stopped into Shoreline Brewery while visiting Michigan City because it was unbearably hot…read moreoutside and we needed somewhere to cool off before we could check into our hotel. We ordered the Elote Pizza, and overall it was really good. It had a nice wood-fired crust that was probably the highlight of the meal. The only downside was that it came with a garlic aioli that was very heavy...there was so much on the pizza that it overpowered some of the other flavors. I think it would have been even better with a lighter hand. For drinks, I had one of their sour beers and my husband ordered an IPA. Both were good, but neither really stood out as anything particularly memorable. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was friendly and took good care of us. The layout of the brewery was a little unexpected. We walked into the main entrance, then the host brought us back outside and over to a separate building where the bar is located. It was a little confusing at first, but it ended up being a neat setup. The restaurant was clean, with a spacious dining room and a nice-looking patio. The only thing that kept this from being a higher rating was the value. It felt a little expensive for what we ordered, and while everything was solid, nothing really wowed us. Overall, I'm glad we stopped in, especially as a place to escape the heat for a while. If you're in the area and looking for a casual meal and a local beer, it's worth checking out...I just wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to visit again.

Went for dinner, and was asked to pay $5 cover because a band was playing outside. Sat outside and…read moreband packed up after a couple of songs. Spoke to the manager who was very unapologetic and didn't seem to care about treating your customers well. Pretty much said that's their policy even if you happen to come just 5 mins before close. Food was average, their "award winning" lamb burger was not medium rare as stated on the menu. The only saving grace was our waitress who was very attentive and empathetic. Will not venture here again nor will recommend anyone to go here.

All the tables were full and customers were constantly coming and going. I can see why after checking em out. Pricing is fair. If you compare it to auntie Anne's they are cheaper with better quality ingredients being used. Service was very quick - there is a kiosk at the front counter or you're able to order with a staff member. Within 5 mins our snack was ready. My husband and I tried a salted pretzel with nacho cheese sauce and creamy mustard sauce. The pretzel itself was cooked perfectly. Texture wise it was somewhat crispy on the outside with a very fluffy center. The nacho cheese sauce was better than cheese sauces I've had before. The creamy mustard was reallll good, we ended up taking the remainder of it home so we could use it for something else.

This "famous" little gem is known for its delicious pretzels and other scrumptious pretzel dough based delights. We started with the regular pretzel and purchased nacho cheese and sweet mustard sauce accompaniments for $1 each. The pretzel was exactly what we had hoped for...light, airy, doughy, but with a crunchy exterior. The whole family enjoyed splitting one pretzel. Afterward, I was still feeling a bit peckish. I decided to order myself an ice coffee along with a pretzel dough rolled all beef hotdog with melted Swiss cheese sandwiched inside. Love at first bite. The whole experience was HEAVEN. I've never had more tasty "junk" food in my life. Dip it in the sweet mustard accompaniment (trust me) for the ultimate tastebud sensory experience. I think we spent under $15 for all the stuff. Extremely reasonable and you can go for a snack or a meal. So many treats and a friendly/ hardworking staff made the whole experience delightful.
