I feel embarrassed that it's taken me so long to stop in to Grand Rapids Popcorn because popcorn is…read moremy favorite snack! I'd received gifts from the shop before so I finally made it there to purchase something for a popcorn-loving friend for her birthday. This family owned business has been around since 1944! They offer freshly made popcorn in 50+ flavors/combinations with both savory and sweet options. I bought a bag of chipotle white cheddar, but also considered the churro popcorn, pina colada, birthday cake, and peanut butter flavors. The chipotle white cheddar popcorn was amazing. Definitely one of the best packaged flavored popcorns I've had - ever. The popcorn stayed crisp and fresh for several days after opening and was buttery tasting and delicious. I can't stop thinking about it so I'll have to get more soon! The store also carries lots of great gift baskets, popcorn supplies for home and for wholesale: popcorn poppers, lots of different types of popcorn containers/buckets/bags, kernels for popping your own at home, oil and seasonings, etc.! They will even help you create a popcorn bar for your events - great for weddings, grad parties, and other get togethers. I was really interested in some of the unique kernels they have available as I love making popcorn at home - the baby white rice variety might come home with me next time. I love the small 4 oz bags of kernels that they have, which is what I bought for my friend. It's the perfect amount to sample the different varieties to find your favorite. The employee who rang up my purchases was super polite and friendly, and then the best part - I was asked if I wanted some freshly popped popcorn to go! A free little treat that made my day. I definitely will be back. Hours are a little limited as they are only open on weekdays, but it's worth a visit if you can make it happen and love popcorn.

Breakfast is served anytime they're open, which is cool since it's my favorite meal. Nate and I were in the area running an errand a few months ago, so we stopped in for lunch. We got the bratwurst sandwich to split. It was quite hefty, with two thick bratwurst patties, sauerkraut, and stone ground mustard on a pretzel bun. It's served with fries that are seasoned and almost beer battered. I think I was expecting it to be amazing with how awesome it looked, so I was a bit disappointed when it fell a little flat. It was just really lacking in flavor for me. The patties were juicy and cooked nicely, they just didn't have a lot of flavor. Then even the sauerkraut seemed like it was almost just braised cabbage, not a lot of that zingy sour flavor I like. I'd like to try a burger next time, or maybe breakfast - I saw a photo of the corned beef hash that looked so good! The two employees working were super friendly and kind, and one came out and checked on us as we were eating. If I lived closer I'd definitely go back soon to try something else. It might be a bit before I get back to Dokl's but I'd love to try the Cajun blue cheeseburger!

Nate and I stopped in after breakfast at Real Food Cafe recently and picked up some groceries and a hanging basket for my mom. The layout of the store is kind of strange and crowded, so it was difficult to maneuver the large cart at times. It took me a bit to find some items since this isn't my regular grocery store, but I was able to find 99% of the stuff on my list. I didn't see many employees around to ask for help finding things. The garden center was a similar situation with only one person who looked to be working there. I wasn't sure which hanging baskets were for sun vs. shade, but some were labeled. They had tons of flowers, vegetables, and other plants available for sale. I can't really comment on pricing since I'm not the plant person in my household, but I'd rather support a local business like Ken's over Lowe's or some other big box store.

At 1010 calories for the sandwich alone, the Tavern Club was an investment: it was stacked high with honey-baked ham, smoked honey-baked turkey breast, crispy bacon, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, onion and ranch on multigrain bread. It was worth every [messy] calorie and the flavor was exquisite, but next time I may go with one of their simpler sandwiches to cut down. The Deep River Maui onion kettle chips are not to be missed either. The staff was very friendly and efficient. They do not currently have dine in available due to COVID, but trust me- you'll want to get some steps in after eating this sandwich! Definitely recommend this place for a quick, delicious lunch.
