The donuts are large and thick. While they were doughy, they were done well and quite tasty. I…read morethink the appeal is in the density of the donuts I sampled, which are worth it. I also picked up a bag of day old bagels, and they are fabulous. Quite tasty, and toasted are a very nice breakfast item. This place seems to be a cornerstone of the Petoskey area and well worth it to me. I cannot vouch for the negative reviews, and this was my first time visiting and partaking in the delectables. Give it a shot.

I would like to have had some nice relaxing music in the background :) either was well be back

They are busy as they make from scratch. The avocado toast was good and light but the Denver Breakfast wrap was perfect and hearty!

Although my husband did get their breakfast steak quesadilla and that was delicious very flavorful. We both got coffees. I tried one of their specialty lattes, which just tasted more like a glorified chocolate milk, and my husband got a cold brew that was very watery. Service was OK. They were extremely busy and the ambiance was also just OK for my liking. It's a cool spot and I'm sure it would be even better if it wasn't so slammed. Their lunch options looked really good. I would definitely go back and try again.

Yes, friends, this donut temple is housed in a former gas station with Greek Revival flourishes, now lovingly restored into what can only be described as Art Deco meets Glazed & Confused. A former gas station with a Hollywood-era name, like a movie star who left the screen for something more meaningful. Like donuts. The donuts? Subtle. Soft. Soulful. They're the anti-Crumbl. No technicolor sprinkles, no birthday cake frosting tsunami--just golden rounds of lightly sweetened perfection that whisper, "You don't need to show off when you're this good." Try the Old Fashioned. Then sit out under the overhang like a dignified donut aristocrat and soak in the scene. Johan's isn't just a bakery. It's a vibe. A vintage dream. A fried philosophy. Come hungry. Leave enlightened.

We're visiting for the summer and absolutely love the quaint downtown vibe of Harbor Springs…read more Wednesdays and Saturdays are especially the perfect time to visit downtown because of the farmers market. On Wednesday, after visiting the farmers market, we stopped by johan's for a breakfast treat. My wife had a breakfast sandwich and I had an apple fritter that was as big as my head. No kidding, it was huge. They were both delicious and reasonably priced. The freshly brewed coffee was exceptional. What a fun way to spend a lazy morning. There are so many pastries, muffins, donuts, and sandwiches offered that I could not even begin to list them all here. It would be fair to say that there is something for everyone, including frozen novelties for kids like Sponge Bob Square Pants popsicles. There is a small inside place to sit and a larger covered outdoor patio where you can sit and people watch.

I was hungry when I went to The Bistro, but I had no idea what I wanted. I changed my mind numerous…read moretimes, and the server was incredibly patient with me. I ended up with vegetable omelette and a side of sausage patties. Not the most exciting choice (that would have been the day's special coconut French toast or pancakes -- I forgot which it was), but it was delicious. The sausage patties were very thick and a little spicy, but not too much so. I also got the cinnamon swirl toast -- I think that toast alone was worth the trip from the metro Detroit area to Petoskey! It was thick and sweet and just perfect, and the piece I took home reheated very nicely. Definitely worth checking out this place!

The hotel is located in a village with dining, shops, real estate, and more. Ample parking, clean beaches, and amazing views of the Marina. The Inn at Bay Harbor has been a Marriott property for 22 years. As of 11/1, it will be a Boyne Resort. I don't think the change of ownership will impact the charm. If anything, it will improve things by being a Michigan based company. Love that this hotel has so many room variations - typical rooms to cottages. Outside of the Inn, there are home rentals through Bay Harbor's website too. This hotel is open year round and there is so much to do. Love high tea! Makes me feel like a princess while adulting. My husband and I plan to come up again this summer. Such a special place! Check out the bay harbor website for events if you're interested in their art festival, hot balloon festival, or any festive activities. They have so much going on! Definitely great for a romantic weekend or coming up with the family. The hotel isn't dog friendly but there are rentals that will allow dogs in the village.

Well to be honest, after a solid late breakfast, dinner entrees ideas never crossed my mind. As we drove through Walloon Lake I posed the question "how does Lake Street Market in B.C. sound?" POW - I managed to hit the home run. Darted in their front door only to find myself alone with the busy staff tending their assigned tasks. Place our carryout order & started to browse the abundant offerings displayed. The aromas drifting from their baking oven in the back were hypnotic. Love the staggered floors which add to LSM's local charm. Our wraps were ready within 5-7 minutes, icy cold Cherry lemonade and I'm out the door. Used my fingers to grab the last of the olive tapenade that managed to escape - yup pure yummy
