Four piece fish fry looks like a one piece fish fry cut into four chunks. Fair for the price but I probably wouldn't have bought it if they didn't say it was a four piece. Not what I was expecting. Tasted good though. read more

We stopped by for lunch one afternoon shortly after they reopened the dining area. We went here because one of my mom's friend's said it was great and she likes supporting local businesses. I also like supporting local businesses. I love me a good Chicago dog so that is what I got. However, I always ask to 86 the green relish. My mom also got a Chicago dog and I stole her sport peppers. My stepdad got the hot pastrami. We also ordered some fries, the fresh cut and the crack. If you are going to order fries, get the crack fries! They are the everything bagel of french fries. YUMMY! This lunch hit the spot. Our order came out pretty quick, and the staff was polite. They were working on a lot of pick up orders and a family came in after us so I think they have a good thing going. If you are in Escanaba, swing by! read more

Stopped here for lunch during our recent trip to Upper Michigan. What a fantastic surprise. We had a Gyro, an Italian Beef and two orders of fries. Everything was excellent. The store was very clean and the staff was friendly and quick. They are easily wheelchair accessible. If we ever find ourselves back in Escanaba, we will definitely be back! read more

We stopped in when driving through Escanaba for lunch, and were pleasantly surprised! Friendly service, excellent food, and reasonable prices. The garlic Parmesan fries were fantastic and the gyros are legit. Would definitely stop in again! read more

The bread is delicious but the sandwich was lacking. Wasn't the greatest, but wasn't terrible either. Over priced subway in my opinion for the sub, but the crack fries? Those saved the day. Could have eaten my weight in those. read more

2nd time getting food here. 1st time since covid. Everyone was masked up and they were doing takeout only. Glad they were taking things seriously. Food was good and fresh and they have lots of veggie options. We'll be back. read more

Out-Freakin-Standing!!! And that's that! Ok so apparently I have to say more in order to post a compliment to this restaurant. So I'm going to now review Yelp. I should be able to post a few simple words to rave about a business. It's not fair to the business to make people write a long ass review when they don't want to. This made me not want to leave this restaurant a review and not want to use your app. But because this restaurant deserves to be recognized I had to write this. Is this enough now?? read more

Bobaloons - Bobaloon's! Simply amazing! - Cafes Near Me - Escanaba, Michigan

Heading to the UP on vacation we used the "Around Me" app to see what was coming up in Escanaba to grab a bite to eat. Several "chains" but wanted something with more of an area flare, and we found it! My husband had the Italian beef combo and I had the (special) beef brisket sandwich. My sandwich was delicious and I couldn't stop asking my husband to "taste" his! The portions were plentiful, which normally is great, but made it hard to finish my "Crack Fries"! On our way back we had to stop again for lunch. Both of us had the cheese steak supreme (I'm pretty sure my husband got the same thing so I wouldn't eat his!) Again, not disappointed!! The menu had a wide variety and the cashier explained everything very well. Highly recommend! read more

The food was great. Gyro meat was nicely seasoned. The outdoor patio area was fun. Service was great!!!

Hip little place where the sandwiches tasted fresh and yummy. I like the sweet potato fries in a small delicious affordable portion as an add-on. Shwarma tahini sauce was a little runny, but food seemed crafted with care. read more

I have been consistently pleased with my experience at Bobaloon's - in the delivery of delicious meat-free options, and the friendly cheerful quality of the staff. I appreciate that Bobaloon's is even extending itself with a stage and a regular music showcase; it does me proud of my hometown. I wish Mark and the team all the success! read more

Extensive menu, good fries and greek food. Not a fast food restaurant - the food is not all pre-made. But tasty food and individual attention is what gives it a four star instead of three. Owner is friendly and I love supporting places like this rather than chains or true fast food. I would definitely stop here again. read more

Stopped because of great reviews. Great selection of sandwiches to select from. I had the Gyro and Greek fries Greek fries have tzatziki sauce ( same as on gyro ) and sprinkled with feta cheese lots of sauce and cheese. Nice to have something different and went well with the gyro. The gyro was fresh and tasty. The pita was nicely toasted. The food is made as you wait so it does not come quickly. The cost for two sandwiches an order of fries and two bottles of soda was $22. So ok price for the quality. Very friendly service and free wifi I would stop again if in the area read more

Great food! Try the Gyro and the homemade fried chips! Delicious! I have been here many times and have never been disappointed. I am not from the area - live downstate - but this is a must stop place for lunch every time I am in town. Only open for lunch. read more

Kind staff! Our food was prepared just right. We enjoyed everything. I wish the chicken pita was more flavorful. Worth paying extra for ranch to douse it in. Loved the fried pickles and fries. Clean. I almost overlooked this spot because of the strange exterior. I'm glad I gave it a chance! Worth it! read more

Man oh man how I want to rate this place higher. It just left me with a bad taste in my mouth so to speak. I came here for lunch with my husband based on their high Yelp review ratings. I ordered the adult grilled cheese (without the sauce...I don't like mustard) and an order of poutine. The grilled cheese was yummy. It had three different kinds of cheese on it and was made atop of fresh bread. The problem was the poutine. It was dripping in grease. It was a small order, and there was no less than a 1/2 inch of grease at the bottom of the container. It gets worse. The friendly young lady who took our order at the counter came around and asked us how our meal was. I told her the poutine was really greasy and then showed her the grease. She said, "Okay. Well, thanks." And just walked away. No apology. No offer to make it right. No nothing. It was food that we paid for that we couldn't finish eating. Totally bummed. read more

Excellent gyros! The chicken cordon blue sandwich came on the best sandwich roll I ever had- super soft and squishy with a light and crisp outside. Cheese curds are excellent and they ha e a nice variety of bottled beverages beyond the soda fountain and coffee read more

This was my first visit to Babaloons and it certainly won't be my last! My husband had the Chicago dog which he described as "well Balanced flavors and delicious". I have to take his word for it since I failed in my attempts to get a bite. I had the Monte Cristo. Wow! The bread was the winner here - flavorful, lightly browned, but not overpowering so the inside ingredients made there presence known. The portion was generous and the homemade cherry coulis elevated the sandwich to a meal! We also shared a basket of chili cheese fries. I say shared loosely because I think I got more than my fair share. I couldn't stop eating them. The fries were crisp with the peel left on for extra flavor. They stood up well to the chili cheese toppings. The chili was meaty and not at all acidy like some tend to be and the cheese was creamy. We will make this a destination the future! read more

Delicious! Convenient enough to Hwy41 to be a good stop...messy eating though, so plan to eat there. read more

Outstanding eatery! Small establishment with patio tables outside. Great sandwiches, my wife had the Reuban and I had the Italian Beef/Sausage Combo. Generous size and delicious. Very friendly place. Will be going there to try everything on their menu. read more

First visit and found the gyro to be very good... GREAT lunch place with lots of choices... good fresh food and excellent service.

Best Reuben around. Also the only place you can get Mediterranean food around. Friendly environment and they are always playing good music.

So here's the deal. Lunch time and I want something Mediterranean. The red hummus basket with warm, very fresh pita, a great assortment of real olives - no green stuffed things here - was just the ticket. I also asked for sliced tomatoes. Spread some of that hummus on them, fold them in half, and pop those in your mouth. Bingo. I'm a happy camper till dinnertime. And soon we can sit outside. read more

GREAT place for lunch... had the coney dog and it was GREAT. Fast service, GREAT food, GREAT Experience.

The food is always tasty and interesting. The owner/ staff always friendly. Skip the corporate food on Lincoln and come here instead.

Really like the chili they use on their coney's. Much better than traditional coney chili.

The Red Hummus Basket and Chicken Shawarma are fresh and delicious. I highly recommend everything here. Awesome place to get a take out lunch. It's kind of small in the inside. I'd love to see this place get moved to a bigger building. read more

The gentleman that took our order was so friendly and attentive. The food was delicious. So glad we stopped on our way through. Will definitely stop again. read more

It was so good very unexpected gem. Recommend by local patrons and you will not be disappointed

The best restaurant in the area, with great service as well. Clean lovely food with a lot of options which were really tasty.

Bobaloon's always has fantastic food, and friendly and fast service. Owner/operator, Mark, takes pride in his menu and the quality of his food, from the best ingredients to the delicious final products. Open Monday through Saturday, stop by for a sandwich, try a delicious fresh scone, or have a bowl of soup. Definitely try the falafel and the Greek fries, they are to die for and not to be missed! read more

The menu has a lot of variety and offers many gluten-free options as well. They sometimes have live bands playing outside the restaurant. Great atmosphere! read more
