    After years away it's fun to revisit A2 institutions, especially Fleetwood Diner. The joys of Hippie Hash, coming here buzzed after the Blind Pig concerts, or popping in around 4:30am when the place is trashed and the employees are hanging out smoking. That was then, now there's a new(er) family owning it, and subtle changes to the menu point to Middle Eastern influences. As such, I sat down at the counter one morning during my visit and tried the gyro hippie hash and it was excellent. Eggs cooked a perfect over-medium, hashbrowns lurked under the chopped meat and minced broccoli, topped with feta cheese. Big yum! It's still tight and intimate inside. A family sat next to me at the counter, so that was fun. Everyone was friendly and watching the cooks work magic in tight quarters was interesting. Come for the experience, and enjoy the classic menu.

    I FINALLY went to the Fleetwood Diner. I never went there when I was in school in Ann Arbor 41+ years ago, so I thought it was about time I tried it. I was actually a little torn between going there & going to Krazy Jim's Blimpie Burgers because that's right next door. But, I decide to stay true to my original decision, and I'm glad I did. At first, I went inside, but it seemed cramped and a little dark, so since it was a beautiful day, I decided to eat outside. I ordered the Meaty Hippie Hash. I didn't realize it came with an egg -- the hash itself would have been plenty! But they made the egg exactly how I like it -- over hard & very overdone for most people, with slightly crispy edges. It was perfect! It came with 2 pieces of toast (I had to ask for jelly) and a mount of hashbrowns with broccoli and chopped corned beef and a sprinkling of cheese. It was so good. And since I only ate half, I had plenty or the next day. That was fortunate, as it wasn't as "cheap" as I'd expect a diner to be, but since it covered two meals, it was worth it. The only real negatives were that the server seemed a bit distracted. For example, I asked her for a glass of ice & she did comment on how the ice melts really fast, but she never did bring it. I also didn't like that the credit card reader thing starts with 25% tip & goes UP from there. Tipping is entirely out of hand at that point. Unfortunately for me, I chose "custom tip" thinking it would be a percentage & not a dollar amount, and being bad at math & a little flustered, I ended up tipping too much.

    Ran down piece of shit without the shitty employers

    For starters we weren't greeted great. I was with an African American and I felt he had a problem with that. We felt rushed and didn't feel comfortable at all. It was a $4 cup of coffee that looked and tasted like a McDonald's taste of coffee. Do your self a favor and go to sweet waters cafe. The coffee is much better and the Ambiance and furniture literally blows Fleetwood diner out of the water. I won't ever be coming back and here and will be encouraging others to do the same. Service is just as important as the food is.

    It's a small diner in a college town. I came in for lunch and it was pretty full. A lot of people came in for brunch. As for your entertainment for your eyes, the walls are filled with stickers. I got a fried chicken sandwich. It looked a little too fried and slightly burnt but the chicken was still moist. There's no seasoning with it so you need to add hot sauce or ketchup to flavor it. My friend got the Reuben and it was pretty good. I see a lot of people get breakfast and it looked good. I might go back to try out breakfast next time. The basket of fries was decent. They don't add salt so you would need to add it first your own liking.

    Half ground bacon/burger with onions tomato lettuce cheese mayo.
    Tim M.

    Food: Onion rings are plentiful, super delicious--crispy with just the right amount of batter (light), and not too much grease, but enough to satisfy a diner-style onion ring hunger. Half bacon half ground beef cheese burger is delightful, crispy around the edges and the veggies and mayo always make a burger great. Comes with mayo, lettuce, tomato, grilled onions and pickles. Excellent winter time or even anytime comfort food. The short order cook here is amazing! Service: Excellent, in and out in about 10 minutes but it was a very slow Wednesday evening around dinner time inlet November. Atmosphere: Funky with its distinctive Ann Arbor flair dating back to the '50s or '60s, yet cozy like every diner should be. No wonder this is an Ann Arbor icon! An oddity: My burger came with strips of bacon on top, which I did not order. Maybe the cook misheard me and gave me the regular cheese burger with bacon added? Either way I really enjoyed this meal!

    Locals and travelers enjoy the hippie hash. I usually prefer something simple as a plate of eggs and toast. This small iconic 24 hour diner has been in AA a while. Small and cozy, there are stickers everywhere to keep your wandering eyes exploring.

    Awesome diner on our visit to Michigan

    Walked in and the owners daughter welcomed me with a very warm conversation. Bomb burgers and onion rings! Highly recommend to visit even if it's just to check out stickers covering the interior walls.

    I love Fleetwood Diner so much and I hope it stays forever on this beautiful little corner of downtown Ann Arbor forever as well! It's a perfect little dinner and has the most unique charm that I find myself bringing people here as one of the must-eat stops if they've never been to Ann Arbor before. Yes, it's diner food, but it's just an quintessential part of Ann Arbor! The walls are covered with stickers and you're allowed to put one of your own up as well. Their hash is to DIE for and definitely worth being on the Ann Arbor bucket list that my friend and I had for our senior year at Michigan. It's perfect late night food, since they're open to the early hours of the morning, breakfast food, and all day food. A ton of people come here, naturally because of its hours of operations, after a long night out to sop up some of the alcohol in their system and I'm sure it's great for that. For me personally, since I don't drink, I can attest to the fact that the food here is good drunk or sober and is just proper diner food, but just with that extra little something that makes it shine apart from any diner kind of place! Love you, Fleetwood!

    My lady loved the corned beef hash at this place. Service was what you'd expect at a good diner: chill, matter of fact, down to earth, and friendly overall. Loved the stickers on the wall. Gives the place a kind of disturbed diner aesthetic. Bacon burger was good. Also, you gotta love a 24/7 diner!

    Fries were undercooked and soggy. They were hot, but it was busy so they must've been rushed and undercooked.

    WHAT is not to love about this wonderful Jewish American deli? Breads and bagels extraordinaire!…read moreDeli market unsurpassed! Food menu so diverse and wonderful! Service is fine tuned to the huge volume of customers that arrive every day. Ordering is down to a science, once one gets familiar with the ordering kiosk. Assistants are nearby if you have any trouble. Order to take out or dine in. We like to dine in as the atmosphere on the second floor dining area (steps or elevator to ascend up) is fun and whimsical. Very casual. Pictures below describe what we chose (and LOVED)! As a MSU Spartan, GO GREEN, Zingermans might be one of the only reasons I'd travel to blue nation! Worth the sacrifice... : ) (just kidding)

So while it was chaotic and overwhelming, the workers would hand you a menu, explain the purchasing process and even give you requested samples! Due to trying a sample of their pretzel, I ended buying a bag. An $8 bag!!! It was perfectly crunchy and buttery and very good! I don't even like pretzels and these impressed me. Also got a $9 bag of only 5 palmier cookies. They were good but definitely a splurge. BF bought a small bottle of balsamic vinegar for $23, like wut?! I eyed a jar of salsa for $28 and jam for $16 but damn, everything was way above even farmer's market prices. The sandwiches start at $18 for a small and go to $24 for a large. BF and I got the chicken avocado on challah bread and a new crunchy pickle. Zingerman's does a good job with their pickles! Skins were a little too hard but I love that they're not overly pickled and still crunchy and not too much other seasoning. For $21, the sandwich was not very big and they don't include chips or fries. If I lived closer, heck yes I would come here pretty often to try a sample and buy a very expensive baked good. I appreciated the very friendly and knowledgeable staff. It was giving Trader Joe's employee energy! Parking was a little tricky but not impossible. We came with locals so they knew what was up.

This is a super cute spot that specializes in smoked meat and sausages... yes please. We ordered at the counter and the employees were very friendly and helpful with great suggestions. I got the Michigan asparagus, onion, and cheddar brat, and Nate got the currywurst. We also got a cup of chili to share. We got a buzzer for our order and then sat down in the heated outdoor space. They have a lot of outdoor seating and some firepits, so I really want to come back in the fall or summer. Our food was done quickly and we had fun picking stuff from the toppings bar. They had chopped onions, jalapenos, banana peppers, sauerkraut etc. and lots of sauces. I LOVED the brat. It was easy to bite and not super snappy which I didn't mind. The bun was perfectly toasted and the flavor combination was delicious. Kind of like a broccoli cheddar vibe. I had some of the currywurst which was also delicious! The chili was packed with brisket and pulled pork, and was really tasty. There is a bar so you can enjoy a beer with your sausage, but we just grabbed some cold drinks from the cooler. They even have ice cream and floats!! There are lots of great items for sale as well, including lots of pickled things, frozen pierogi, meat sticks and jerky, and they even have Trenary Toast (#iykyk). I am already planning my next visit to try more brats and the brisket sandwich. This is such a great concept and I really wish we had a place like this in Grand Rapids.

    My son got to know White Lotus Farms years ago during a summer camp. Being just down the way from…read morethis location, the farms gives great credibility to the products and food offered. The grilled cheese with sausage (pistachio inside) was creamy and innovative. Masala chai with a black jam and pistachio was my morning's order. The space is bright, fresh. clean. Multiple families munched away and played the little wooden games available for guests. Plenty of seating upstairs too. The manager checked in with us for a quick, pleasant exchange.

    This is a review for the White Lotus cafe on Zeeb road (not the farms on Liberty)…read more This place is now my go-to for West Side hang-out. Anytime I have a family member visit me we go here. (I'm thinking of holding my office hours here in the fall, IN PERSON, over real coffee! this coffee is yummmmmmmy) From the moment I walk in the door I am greeted with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Who all know me by my first name! (and I have a difficult Spanish name). They greet me with a smile, never rush me, and take my order all the while answering any questions I might have. Since their menu is always evolving and changing, it's great that they take the time to walk through my options. So they have their standard amazing pizzas (which i first had at the farm) and their shockingly authentic pastries (even better croissants than I have had in Paris). But last week I tried their new breakfast food, and MAN! It was GOOD! the quiche, the omelet....and although I am convinced their chai is the best in Ann Arbor (it's not a premade mix of sugar and chemicals, it's the real deal) ...they now have this new line of matcha, so so good. Sarah and Kat make baristas run for cover, they are that good. And even with all that goodness, I was SHOCKED out of my mind when I had their eggplant sandwich. That thing is fire. FIRE. My family and I are big meat eaters, so when this one hit the scene, we couldn't believe how tasty it was. Even writing this review right now makes me want to go there and eat one. (I'll still keep trying their amazing ever-new menu, but this eggplant sandwich has become a standard) Also, there is this very cute small little market attached where I stop by at the end of the day to pick up freshly made bread for dinner. We love the sesame bread, but geez louise, the baguettes are addictive. Their head baker is INSANELY talented. Remember that scene in Ratatouille when the food critic gets transported to a core memory? That happens to me when I eat that bread. I have purchased goat milk soap there (its handmade by the baker's wife), hot chocolate mix, a kabocha squash, this no sugar added mango puree (which I made a no-sugar added mango torte with). They have these really cool unique products, and it really is a treat to stop by. The place is beautiful, and it is a gem to have such a high quality place to eat on this side of town. The passion that these people have comes through in their food, the products they sell, and the way they treat their community. I love Ann Arbor, and I love this cafe. (okay now i really am going to go and get that eggplant sandwich)
