    "Ta da!" Tristan said.  "Check out the chest hair."

    Okay, yes, I love the large malts at the Plainwell Ice Cream, but the ice cream at Dean's is very, very good too. And because the hours at the Plainwell Ice Cream have been recently truncated, I have turned to Dean's. Because Dean's has malts too. And for a couple dollars less. Yet, still yummy.

    Been going here since I was a kid living in Richland. Now I live in California and every time I come back to the area, going to Deans is a must. So glad they still have the upside down banana split on the menu. The onion rings are also the best around.

    The old creamery.

    Always the ice cream place for families to go to for many years. Come to Plainwell and see for yourself!

    Good soft serve ice cream. Heard the owner is awful to employees though. Not the nicest to customers either.

    Okay, yes, I love the large malts at the Plainwell Ice Cream, but the ice cream at Dean's is very, very good too.

    BEYOND OUTSTANDING. Having over 50 years of high end dining experiences and working for an…read moreexclusive country club as catering sales and social director, I have high (some say unreasonably high) expectations as a patron of self proclaimed "fine dining" establishments. With that said...I was beyond impressed!! From my first phone call, to make a dinner reservation (on the day of) for a table of 5 for my birthday, through to the most delectable dessert (huge selection of fresh, pastry chef created desserts), the service, entrée, appetizer and martini was out of this world. And the ROLLS. Warm, soft and beyond delicious. When we looked online at the menu and saw the prices; at first it was a real "eye roll". WORTH EVERY CENT! Very generous portions for every course. The feedback I would offer on the haricot vert (green beans).is they were not just al dente but very hard to bite into. Fingerlings not flavorful and mostly tasteless. Minor details when looking at the total meal and experience. We asked that the lighting be dimmer and our amazing server, Taylor was pleasant and accommodating. In fact, every motion and explanation of menu items was kind, pleasant and professional. When she approached the table, she was respectful before speaking and did NOT just breeze by with an intrusive screech of "everything ok guys?". Frankly, we tip more when a server is available and not overbearing. She was a 5 star server! Offering to pack our leftovers for us in the kitchen with a note on the box stating what was inside and a "happy birthday" on mine. A lit candle came out on my HUGE portion of tiramisu. Then the remaining desserts came to thd table that were also very generous in size and better than the usual "homemade". Cheers to the pastry chef and ALL the chefs in the kitchen. And, most of all, to the owners that clearly are committed to quality and integrity. Knowing that our server has been in your employ for 14 years speaks volumes! If you (the reader) think that this fantastic experience is out of your budget...skip a couple Starbucks or fast food lunches and it won't take you long to save enough to enjoy a beautiful lunch or dinner at Four Roses. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 3/5 Reservation Reservations recommended Noise level Very loud, hard to hear Seating type Indoor dining area, Bar area, Outdoor patio / terrace, Booth seating Recommendation for vegetarians Somewhat recommend Vegetarian offerings Vegetarian menu or section, Clearly labeled vegetarian dishes Vegetarian options Server was very aware of the needs of customer. She asked if there were any dietary restrictions or allergies. Parking space Somewhat difficult to find parking Parking options Free parking lot Parking Several (3-4) Handicap parking spaces Kid-friendliness Yes. Open to children. Wheelchair accessibility We had a person in a wheelchair and the entry was very accessible as well as within the restaurant.

Our waitress was very friendly greeted us offered us drinks, my husband got a beer and water for me. We looked over the menu and asked for recommendations. My husband ordered the big Lake breeze beef, and it came with a scoop of sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, and green beans. The meat was so tender he could cut it with a fork and he licked the plate clean. I ordered the chili wrapped flank steak with Gorgonzola cream and jalapeño relish. I was asked if medium rare is OK for the steak, but when it did come out, it was more on the rare side. The jalapeño relish was not too spicy, the meal really was delicious. we can never visit without getting dessert! my husband ordered the peanut butter pie, it was a huge portion and he absolutely loved it. I ordered the ice packs lemon pie, which is more of a custard, and it came with the homemade whipped cream. It was very good. We can never leave without getting a piece of the traditional cheesecake to go. I couldn't believe how busy the restaurant was for Wednesday night. I was glad that we had a reservation. The service is always exceptional in the food is great highly recommend to anyone in the area.
