Inside is a whopping 6 tables. On the left side is the grill and prep area. So dinner and a show. I ordered a 1/2# Bacon Cheeseburger. Not sure of the breakdown but the total was $18 with a soda and onion rings. It was 2 patties that tasted like high quality meat seasoned right with a couple of large strips of bacon. The burger was juicy and super tasty. The bacon was excellent. Together they made a fantastic burger. The onion rings were good, but the breading to onion mixture was a little heavy. The crunch was good though. The service was fantastic. Everyone was super friendly and very efficient. The cook is excellent and a nice lady. I enjoyed watching her cook the food. Overall an easy 5 star review. Would I return? At 2 hours away from me the answer is still absolutely!

I asked for a coffee at 4:00 pm and she told me they don't make it in the afternoon. The service was poor, no refills on water or pop even when asked she didn't come back.

I certainly never would have found it if it weren't for Yelp, as it's kind of wedged in between 2 other buildings. I walked in and was greeted immediately. It seems to be another place that's popular with locals. The server was very good, and paid attention but didn't hover. I ordered that pulled pork tacos. It was a very odd combination of things: pulled pork inside soft tortillas with onion rings, and a few tortilla chips with refried beans and cheese on the side. But somehow, it managed to satisfy a bunch of cravings all at once! And while it didn't look like a huge portion, I could only eat half of it. I brought the other half home for another day. There were lots of interesting and appealing items on the menu. Do yourself a favor and stop by when you're in town.

The scone had a nice lemon creme that came with it which was a great touch. She really enjoyed her dish. This is definitely a nice stop if you are in the Clare area.

We were ignored when we sat down. I had to ask someone to come take our drink order. I chalked it up to new helper. We came back this past Saturday and experienced the same thing. This time, the staff blatantly ignored us, even looked directly at us and still did not come over to bring silverware or take our drink order. We finally got up and left after watching the staff help people that came in after us. We will not return. The staff working there have no clue regarding customer service. We would spend on average $70 each visit on food and drinks. We found another place in town.

So glad we did! It's in a small quaint downtown Clare. Street parking. Many different goodies to choose from, including donuts, cookies, mini cakes, and much more. They offer day "old" items as self serve in a separate area, so be sure to check it out for a great deal. They also have a storefront with jelly, salsa, cherries, honey and more. Also, tshirts and some other logo apparel and souvenirs. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They were very patient when we told them it was our first time and spent time looking at all the options. Very reasonable prices. Probably the freshest baked goods I have ever had. The apple fritter is hands down the best! Pieces of cut apples baked into the donut. Delicious! The blueberry donut has fresh and moist literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate cookie with chocolate frosting is a real treat, very sweet and can be shared. The list goes on and on... every single thing we had was delicious - you can't go wrong with anything! It was so good we made a stop in route going home. This is a definite must try! You may even find yourself making a special trip just to get more of their delicious goodies. Stop in - you won't be disappointed!

I had been hearing about Cops & Doughnuts for years now. Our usual route up to Traverse City…read moredoesn't typically go through Clare but this year we did find ourselves going through on a detour and I thought that would a good time to try the place. I have to say, after the years of hype, I was disappointed. First off, the storefront isn't anything fancy. And it doesn't have to be! Most of my favorite donut shops are no frills with florescent lighting and the same cabinets and pans they've used for decades. But it's a weird vibe because it's also kind of touristy? Like they know they get a lot of tourists so they sell merch and stuff, and the two just don't really mesh? IDK. We got a dozen donuts to munch on during the drive and take with us up north and they were just ok. A little too dense for my liking (I like a melt in your mouth, pillowy yeasted donut) and very, very sweet. One of the donuts we got was the maple bacon "squealer" and the bacon was limp and chewy. I also got an apple turnover and had an odd aftertaste and left a bit of a film on my tongue. IDK, it all just didn't' seem fresh? Like the options had been sitting on the shelf for more than 24 hours. Maybe we got them on a bad day? IDK. The staff was really nice though, and I know they do a lot for the community so I don't begrudge them of any success, and they do seem to have a playful sense of humor which is fun for the brand but I just wasn't wowed. I can't see myself going out of my way to get here again. If we're detoured, maybe, but I think we'd be better off coming earlier in the day for the freshest offerings possible.

Trust me, my grandmother never complains, and she refused to eat this food, saying it was horrible and that it would make her sick. They even had the nerve to make us pay three dollars for Pepsi, when one single cent makes two hundred cups.
