This place is located on State St on SW corner of Hill St, South of the University of Michigan main campus. There is no parking as is the case around Ann Arbor. We were fortunate to find street parking on Oakland Ave to the East of the restaurant. They claim this is Tom Brady's "favorite cheesesteak." There is a lot of memorabilia on the wall (see photos) including some of Michigan bball but surprisingly no Fab 5. I posted the current menu. As for the food, it was good but not the greatest. I recommend getting a side order of the hot sauce and jalapeños to add. The cheesesteak was good but the chicken Philly was a little bland. That is where the side of the hot sauce come in, worth the nominal additional cost.

Their Philly was good, cheesy, juicy, flavorful, and comforting. I ordered the 10 inch Philly Original and a side of chicken tenders and a side of ranch. I ordered via DoorDash because I was having a tough time staying sane after work. I was waking up around 5-5:30 which is 2-2:30AM PST to workout and head to the office which means by 3PM EST, I was itching to hurry up back to my hotel room. Anyway. I am glad I ordered from here that night. I wanted something easy to eat and filling. I think my meal allowance is $70 a day but I didn't come close to the amount because I skip breakfast to not feel lethargic at work and I cannot eat lunch and dinner because though I have a weight problem, I cannot eat that much food in a short span. How odd! I try not to eat so late. The Philly cheesesteak was delicious. I throughly enjoyed the chicken tenders and ranch, too. It was not over cooked and they're rather thin which made it not overly over the top as a side. This place, Mr. Spots definitely hit the spot.

Cool local college spot that we chose for hot wings and they delivered! Small space with lots of signed sport memorabilia on the walls. The wings were hot, fried hard and spicy! The service was fast and with a smile.

Mr Spots is hands down one of the best hole in the wall gems in Ann Arbor. I usually get the steak hoagie (minus onions) and a sack of waffle fries. This is an absolutely delectable combination. The cheese on the hoagie is perfectly melted and piping hot, with the fresh tomatoes and lettuce as a nice contrast. The line can be long at times (especially when there's a sports game going on), but Mr Spots is definitely worth the wait.

I dig dingy college food joints and was truly hoping to love this spot. Wings and cheesesteaks? Sign me up! One might suggest that Mr Spots makes good drunk food, but the flaws in their main offerings would not pass muster even if I were three sheets to the wind. The only thing that elevated my experience beyond one star was their willingness to serve my six piece wing order as all flats, without an added premium. Flats rule. Drummettes drool. Actually, I should not cast aspersions about drummettes. The more people eat 'em the more flats are left for me and the rest of the chicken wing cognoscenti. But I digress. The best part of dingy college food joints is typically the low prices. I get that food costs are drastically on the rise, and wing prices in particular have gone through the roof. So I did not let a $10 order of six wings dissuade me. However paying an additional buck fifty for blue cheese and celery, felt punitive. And north of $7 for a six inch cheesesteak? If the food is good, I'm certainly willing to pay for it. Except the food is not good. It's not just not good for the price. It would not be good for even half of the price. To be fair, the wings smelled great. I ordered the food to go, but parked right outside the front door. It was literally seconds between getting the hot food in my hands and opening the styrofoam lid in the card. The wings looked great too! Large, well-sauced, and with crispy edges. While the wings were certainly crispy at some point in their lives, something awful must have happened to them along way. At the tips of the wings, there was still a little crunch, however the skin of the wings was flabby AF. Additionally the wings were barely warm in their center. It seemed as if these wings had been fried in advance and were simply reheated. My wing loving daughter, who I've seen tear through a pile of wings, tried one and simply could not go on. Then she tried a bite of the cheesesteak, and was done with that too after her first taste. I cannot abide wasting food, so I dutifully finished our order, but it was without an iota of pleasure. The cheesesteak improved a bit when it was dragged through the wing sauce and drizzled with the blue cheese dressing. But even that magical combination of flavors could not make the sandwich anything better than edible. When I think that people are ordering wings at Mr. Spots when they could be going to the newer place down Packard, I weep a bit for humanity. With chicken wings being ever more precious and in reduced supply, I feel it's more important than ever for wing places to respect their ingredients and do good things with these delectable morsels. This was more than a little disappointing. At least now I know and never have to return.

Philly Original, wings, Chili Cheese Fries

My fiance and I came to Ann Arbor for a weekend trip and stopped by here because we heard Tom Brady liked it, and my fiance loves Tom Brady. You walk in and it's very casual, with cool photos and articles of different athletes hung on the wall. We got to order right away. Service was very friendly and patient as we figured out what to order. We ultimately got a Philly cheesesteak, chili cheese fries, bbq wings, and a lemonade. All were simple but tasty! Exactly what you would expect. It was fun to read about Tom Brady's experience here and have an affordable and delicious meal!

One of the best cheesesteaks I've ever had

Courtney E.

OMG! Soooooo good. If you could only get one item off their menu, make sure it's the cheesesteak with extra cheese. The meat was tender, the cheese was cheesing, and the roll was soft. I also got the fries which were delivered cold, but seasoned. I'm that toxic person who has to get something sweet when I eat something salty/savory so I also ordered the chocolate malt milkshake and that was great as well. If only my stomach was big enough to finish it all, but at least I have leftovers. This was easily one of the best cheesesteaks I've had outside of Philly.

Great place to go if you're craving something quick and cozy. I regret not coming here as often in my undergraduate years. You can tell that this place is a frequent location for a lot of students. Definitely give it a try if you want a nice meal after studying!

Lily N.

Can I get a heeeeeeckkkkk yeah?! This sandwich is BOMB. I have to add, I ate this sandwich 4 hours after I got it and it still tasted amazing. $11 for a 10 inch cheesesteak, gooey cheese, and a ton of steak inside - can't beat it. I ordered it at about 2pm on a Sunday afternoon and it was finished in less than 10 minutes. Best cheese steak around!

This is an Ann Arbor junk food institution. Filled with Michigan history on the walls, Spot's feels like a mini-museum of Michigan sports memorabilia. The cheese steaks are very good - I have been to Tony Luke's, Pat's, Geno's, and other Philly cheese steak meccas and Spot's is on par with them. The prices aren't dirt cheap, but you get what you pay for. The staff is hands-off after they bring you your food, which is fine, because you'll probably be too busy stuffing your face and watching sports on TV to care. read more

Ok food. A little pricey. But good if you're craving greasy onion rings, wings, and chee steaks. CAUTION: suicide wings are very hot. I always eat the spiciest level, but this really put me to my limit. Not the spiciest wing I've ever had, but too spicy for a recreational eater. Still good though. read more

Cheap and quick to go food that always hits the spot! Not the best food in town but when you are feeling something greasy spots is a good choice. The boneless wings are always a good choice in my opinion. Half a dozen wings and a 6 inch philly original will fill you right up. Delivery is pretty speedy as well. read more

Having grown up in PA one of my favorite foods is a Philly cheesesteak. Mr Spot's is not only the best cheesesteak I've had outside of PA, it's one of the best places to eat in Ann Arbor, period.

Decided to stop in one night - always wanted to find a decent cheesesteak in Ann Arbor - and wow, I don't think a first order anywhere could have gone worse. I ordered a steak hoagie to go only to get back to my place, open it up and find that they had gotten the order wrong and given me a chicken hoagie instead. Nice. How one mishears the word "steak" for "chicken" is beyond me. But I wouldn't be so put off if it wasn't for the overall terrible quality of the sub. Damp bread. Dry chicken. Watery sauce. Don't anticipate a return visit - they're one-for-one on giving me an awful experience, wouldn't want to potentially hurt their shooting percentage. And I prefer competent restaurants that actually get orders correct. read more

I'm not the biggest fan of cheese steak hoagies, but their suicide wing dings with a side of their beautifully seasoned waffle fries definitely hit the spot every time I go there. Also what makes them really unique about their delivery is that every time I order delivery I get it just as fresh and hot as I would if I were dining in. Most definitely my new to-go spot for wings in Ann Arbor. read more

Order was chili cheese fries, chicken fingers, 2 doz hot wings with bone and a full Mr.Spots cheese steak. What was good: Ccheese fries. Chicken figers... just fine. Who can't make those? Not so good: Wings were WAY overcooked making them leather-like. Was more like eating wing-jerky. Spice however, was good. Sandwich lacked flavor and doesn't deliver well as the bread was soggy to the point where you needed a spoon to eat it. I didn't want to Yelp this but their website has no way to provide feedback directly. They should change that unless they want 2 star reviews to end up in the public eye. We might try them again but there are many other places that can provide similar offerings so it will be a while before we dial there number again. read more

Let's be very clear, the only reason this place isn't a 4 star is because there are better cheesesteaks out there. Not by much, but Gabriel's in Ypsilanti and Pat's in Philly both have a better sandwich. Spot's differentiates itself by the mountain of waffle fries they provide, the fact that they deliver (slowly), and the in store dining experience promises sports on TV and all the ketchup your bun and fries can soak up. I've been to this place over 50 times, maybe closer to 100. I've picked it up and had it delivered in the same day. Spots is the ultimate hangover cure, and by hangover cure I mean sleep-inducer. They might as well have a disclaimer on the aluminum foil that says "may cause drowsiness, do not eat while driving or operating heavy machinery). Eating spots cheesesteaks requires at least 2 hours of napping or 4 hours of TV to shake-off, after which you'll be ready for a night out at Rick's or the Jug. I recommend the Philly O with mushrooms and Wiz but the Wings are also awesome. read more

I'm not a fan of this place. The cheesesteak was nothing close to the Philly original. They don't offer a Cheese Whiz option; you can't call yourself a Philly Cheesesteak place without that. The steak was under-seasoned; the American cheese wasn't completely melted; and, the onions were undercooked. Then, there is also the issue of cleanliness. I got a Sprite from the soda machine, and when I looked at the cup, there was brown organic matter in it. The food sucks, and the restaurant is diirty. Stay away from this place. read more

The waitresses and waiters were very nice, attentive, and welcoming. As a group we shared the calamari and spinach & artichoke dip appetizers. They were both quite delish. Afterwards we enjoyed the Carlyle salads which were fresh and plated nicely. As my entree I chose the steak dinner. The mashed potatoes were buttery, the vegetables were perfectly cooked and lightly seasoned, and the steak was on point! It was cooked medium, chared, and seasoning like a champ. Very enjoyable! For dessert I chose the carrot cake.....and WOW! This cake was light, moist, not overly sweet, and they give you such a huge piece. If ever back in the area I could see myself coming back to enjoy another meal.

They took the order, brought the food and never asked if we wanted another drink or refill. Came back at the end for the bill.

The food was great 17 years ago when I got three meats and two sides for $11:99 or add Mac n cheese for $15.99. Now at $32 with tip and just water, the smoked bbq pulled beef sandwich was just ok, not a big portion by any means and they do not leave the sauces so whatever is on your sandwich is it. The entree came with fries small portion and a Cole slaw. At these prices, I think, I am done with the roadhouse.

Naked Chicken Wings Cooked very well. This is a somewhat unique feature of Mr. Spots. Have been visiting here intermittently since 1995 (2016 now!!) PRetty consistent recipie, its is a somewhat sour vinegary striking flavour for the Naked wings. Slightly overcookes, Made just crispy enough , which most restaurants can not do without battering /deep frying. SO in conclusion their unique naked wings making system is very specific and provenly consistent and unique. IF you can take sour and hot, then this is the best. Very very casual, mostly bench seating in a small area. My Favorite order: 2 people SHARE 6 wings, fries, celery, and share a soda, comes out to about $10,and decently healthy(ifyou chew SLOWLY on the well cooked bones, even healthier!!) THANKS FOR READING!!!! read more

Awful Customer Service Experience 2pm - called in order for 630 pm delivery 330pm - received call that delivery would not be on time, but would be on the early side. 545pm- called and told me they were very busy, order would be delivered by 8pm. 815 pm - I called and they said my order was actually for pickup not delivery, and they refused to deliver it. (clearly lying, they had contacted me 2x previously that delivery was not going to be on time.) I will NEVER eat there again, nor will any of my roommates. Shameful how they treated a long time customer, from the poor service to the outright LYING. read more

I was there on Saturday before the game. It's become a Saturday tradition that when my wife and I come to town for a few games a year that we do our pregame meal at Mr. Spots. Excellent cheesesteak and fries and fun to mingle with my fellow Wolverines. I love eating here. It brings me back to my college years when I ate hear often. read more

Service is prompt and restaurant clean. Original Philly cheesesteak and an order of Chili fries…read more Portions are well-sized and suitable for lunch. Chili fries are tasty. Chili isn't too runny. No added toppings such as diced onion. Do not recommend re-heating them. The cheesesteak sand which is tasty as well. They do a nice job here. The meat wasn't salty; it's flavorful and cooked well. I'm not sure what kind of beef cut they use, but I would assume it's of the skirt / flank variety. Tender, but not stringy. Stop in!

We just paid $75 at Lefty's Cheesesteaks for what might be the saddest excuse for cheesesteaks I've…read moreever seen. We ordered 3 large cheesesteaks, 2 fries, and cheesesteak rolls, plus paid extra for add ons like cherry peppers on the side. Not only did they forget the extras entirely, but the "large" sandwiches were a joke. They used bigger buns and apparently decided that counted as a larger sandwich, because there was definitely not more meat. In fact, the meat barely covered HALF the bread. We literally have to cook extra meat at home just to turn these into actual cheesesteaks. And the cheesesteak rolls? The menu photo shows four halves. What showed up was ONE roll cut in half. That's it. The curly fries were the only thing remotely worth the money. Charging extra for every tiny add on while simultaneously skimping on the actual food (and the addons) is wild. If you're going to charge premium prices, at least put enough meat on the sandwich to justify calling it a cheesesteak.

She had a bacon cheeseburger also with fries. We scanned over the menu after saying hello, ordered our food, and had our entire order within 10 minutes. Speedys isn't just a name, our food came out freshly cooked, quickly. My coney dog had to be eaten with a fork and knife because it was COVERED in chili. They did not go light on any condiment, and for the price there are zero complaints on that. My chili cheese burger was also very tasty. She said her burger tasted like somethinf we wouldve made in the backyard, which is a compliment, as well. Overall it was solid food, that came out very quickly, tasted fresh, and for not a crazy price.

The handwriting on some parts is not legible. 2) Both our buns (pretzel on the chicken and brioche on the smash) were cold despite clearly being on the flat top. It seemed like the buns went from the fridge to the griddle. As my better half commented "if you're going to call yourself Smokin' Buns, you can't have cold buns."
