We were vacationing in Ludington and decided to have dinner at Old Hamlin Restaurant downtown. The…read moreword "old" definitely matches the style of the restaurant. The interior feels dated, but also warm, welcoming, and homey. It has the charm of a place that has been serving the same homemade recipes for generations, and it truly feels like both the restaurant and the recipes have remained true to their roots since opening day. We were seated quickly, and our waitress, Sydney, greeted us promptly. She was friendly and took the time to tell us about the daily specials and homemade soups. Two of our children ordered the kids' spaghetti, while our other child had the chicken strips and fries. I ordered the Monterey Chicken Sandwich based on Sydney's recommendation, and my husband chose the meatloaf sandwich with a cup of chicken noodle soup. Everything we ordered was good. The kids all enjoyed their meals, and I absolutely loved my sandwich. My husband enjoyed the meatloaf as well, although he mentioned he would probably try something different if we return on a future visit. The homemade pies looked incredible, but we already had dessert plans elsewhere, so we'll have to save those for another time. Overall, while the restaurant's interior may feel a bit dated, the homemade food, reasonable prices, and friendly service made for a very enjoyable meal. If you're looking for a comforting, home-cooked meal while visiting Ludington, Old Hamlin Restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

Hard to say much more about my meal here than "OK," so three stars.

I'm unsure if the food has changed at all but our experience was GREAT. The breakfast was about the best I've ever had while eating out. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, from the biscuits and gravy to the potatoes, nothing seemed like it came from a packet or freezer. The country fried steak was nicely breaded, the biscuits and gravy were great for it not being "homemade". The portions were huge while the prices were also great on the "Chicago" scale.
