Yelp asked, what would I improve? I ordered 3 pizzas for pickup, along with an order of cannoli and…read moreanother dessert. The website stated it would be ready in 25 minutes. Upon arriving 30 minutes later, I was informed that they did not receive my order and had to begin making it now. In addition, the website menu was wrong and they did not have cannoli. The manager was gracious enough to substitute for another dessert (Apple spi-rolls). He also informed me that they were going to just start making our order. As I was preparing to wait for our order to be made, decide to have a soda, and wait in there seated area, all of the tables were sticky and dirty adding to the overall experience. When our order was finished and ready, thirty minutes later, I took our order and headed back to the house only to find that the taco pizza that we ordered was missing half of its ingredients (no lettuce, tomato, onions (paid extra for these ) and jalapeños (paid extra for these as well), To top that off, substituted dessert was raw in the middle and under cooked. Would have rated it less, but I can't. Never go here. There are apparently 30 of these across the area, would caution from visiting any of these if this is even close to the experience.

Maybe 2 versions - that would be great! It is in such a great location now-can't wait for summer for the windows to be opened and the outdoor seating to be available.

A hidden gem in North Michigan!…read more I was visiting Alpena for a diving trip and was recommended this place. Specifically the Fire Burger and their Poutine. Our party was 6, they gave us "outdoor beers" and a pager. When a table opened up we sat down and I was immediately impressed. Our server was friendly and helpful, super sweet. She handled our accommodations (one of my friends had a lot of specific "requests" for his meal.) We got the poutine and mozzarella sticks for our appetizers... holy sh*t.... The poutine was INCREDIBLE. The mozzarella sticks were clearly house made. Just absolute perfection. I took the recommendations of my friend, and got the Fire Burger... insane. If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Great beers. Great apps. Great burger. Just an all round great time. You owe it to yourself to try this spot.... And if you don't think so, you probably hate puppies and America.

I will say the wait's a little long in the morning as this place is popular. I had ordered coffee and a breakfast wrap and luckily I had some work I could get done while waiting for it. The workers are all so nice and the people coming in and out were also amazed at the amount of souvenirs and merchandise. (Like I was) I was thinking about picking up a quarterzip as they're now in style. If I found myself in Alpena again, you'll catch me here the second I wake up.

This is our favorite coffee to buy whole bean by the 5lb bag. We buy it every 2 months and have for…read moreseveral years. We sometimes order online and have it delivered since it's 50 miles from where we live. On occasion we drive there for an outing but we will never eat there again. First off it's very unappealing inside. Dirty floors Cobb webs everywhere. Just a nasty feeling. I was eating a blah wrap and noticed all of the animal mounts hanging on the walls were thick with dust. Who ever owns this place needs to close for a couple of days and clean up the filth.

Before leaving, i purchased 2 sets of wings, a bunch of brats and some polish sausages. pricing is pretty good (especially for the cooked sausages) but it definitely adds up when buying the frozen items. The feels are like a homestyle store front where the employees really get to know their customers. Overall, you have to come here if you're in Alpena!!!!

Coming from out of town I knew I had to check out a local place like this and it didn't disappoint…read more Walking in I had no idea how ordering worked and when I saw a family in front of me getting their order, I'm just glad I could follow what they were doing lol. They have 6 types of sausages for the picking and they're: Festival Classic Potato Spicy Cajun Sauerkraut Cheddarwurst Beer Brat Not sure if they rotate the flavors though. Anyways, picked a bun and a Festival Sausage (From what it tasted like, it was bell peppers infused. Next up they had a topping station and it was all the condiments you could think of putting on a hot dog. I specifically got this Corn Relish and it was dreamy, the sweet snap of the corn with the hint of relished veggies .(Highly recommend) At the end of the counter is where you'll pay and it's simple as that. The whole process reminded me of chipotle but a self serve version and with hot dogs. There's also an ice cream shop adjacent to the counter and if you're feeling sweet after a savory hot dog, then it's the perfect place for salty and sweet lovers.

John Boy's isn't just a diner--it's a portal. One foot in Americana, one in a dream. The menu reads…read morelike a manifesto: sprawling, obsessive, oddly precise. Every dish arrives like it's been summoned by memory. The bacon is crisp, the toast knows something, and the omelets are heavy with intention. The dining room is small, dimly lit, and full of quiet drama. The regulars speak in half-smiles, and the staff greets you like they've seen your face before--in another life, maybe. Alpena doesn't have many restaurants. That's the mystery. You drive around expecting more, but there's a stillness here. A pause. And then--John Boy's. Waiting. Whether you're just passing through or hiding out for a while, this is your place. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner. (Even if you're not hungry.)
