More like BADale's Bakery. Not a great experience- luckily it was only 5 mins of displeasure…read more Waited in line for donuts smashed into a clothing rack in front of pastry case. After a few mins the unhappy lady took us next. We said we'd need a box since we were planning on getting 9-10 donuts. She snarked, "well I'll have to charge you $.50 for the box if you don't get a dozen." Yeah we saw the sign, but isn't that the cost of doing business?! They aren't charging for wax bags, plus I'm buying 10 items (~$16 worth) which should have the box factored in anyway at only .05 per donut... which is probably the cost of the wax bag they don't charge for! Enough statistical analysis. Then we ask about the chocolate covered Bavarian cream vs. the choc cov'd custard. That sent her into a tiff as she set us straight! Basically their Bav. cream is white & custard is yellow. But most examples online showed Bav. cream as a light yellowy custard! On the bright side most of what we got was tasty. Cinnamon roll & lemonade donut was the best.

Someone tipped me off about this place, which is usually how the good ones are found. You walk in…read moreand immediately get the sense that not much has changed here in a few decades, and that's a compliment. Friendly people behind the counter, trays of baked goods, and none of the polished nonsense that usually comes with places trying too hard. I walked out with a dozen donuts and worked my way through more than I probably should admit. Every one was good. Simple, fresh, satisfying. This is the kind of place that reminds you why old-school neighborhood bakeries still matter. I'm stopping again when I'm back.

Today it's table top cornhole boards. The one game even I couldn't lose at! It goes beyond the cute little shop for ice cream and local stuff. They carry many made in Michigan products. They have a nostalgic look at pop AND great ice cream. It's also fun to see the latest find on their shelves. Depending on which doggie is working, you have several petting opportunities. It's also a wonderful experience to visit with Stacy or Kate. 12/24

It is never usually this creamy. It tastes better than the coffee where I live. We went through the driveway but they do have an area indoors if you would like to order that way.

They have delicious food. I love the chicken tenders and the fries. My husband always tries a different burger and he loves all of them. This time I also got an order of mozarella sticks and they were crispy and good. The fries are my favorite part especially with their ranch. The service is really great too. Its really spacious inside with really cool seating. It isn't too loud in there when you go between 3-5pm. I think its the perfect time to go with kids. They do have high chairs. If you buy a growler, save the bottle and you can refill it super cheap. My husband only paid $12 for a growler to be filled

Paddle Hard Brewing is our new go-to spot for lunch on the way up north!…read more The restaurant interior is funky, cozy, and inviting; and the staff and bartenders are always friendly and knowledgeable about the food and beer selection. If you don't drink beer, they also have ciders and spirits so everyone's happy! The menu is perfect for a brewery, and I especially love the Pizza/Panini section. Each item can be ordered as a flatbread pizza or a pressed panini sandwich. My favorite is the "Tro-Pork-Al," which is pulled pork, tangy BBQ sauce, pineapple, and bacon-- unbelievably delicious with melty cheese holding it all together :) Restrooms are clean, food is consistent, and we've never had to wait for a table. I can't wait to stop in again for some yummy road trip grindage! If you find yourself passing through Grayling, don't forget to pop in for a sandwich and a beer- you won't be sorry!

Excellent brewery/restaurant in Grayling…read more I've eaten here twice in a seven year span and the beer, food, and service are still great. Latest visit was last week and we were going to arrive right around kitchen closing (9:30pm). Called in an order and they held it for us/let us eat inside and grab beers. Appreciated that greatly after a long drive. A handful of plant based options like tacos, bowls, and pita sandwiches. I ordered tacos and the pita and both were yummy. Beers are solid and they have other breweries too. Plus cider. The seating options are plentiful (long bar, small and large tables). They can accommodate large groups. The decor is cool inside too. Will absolutely keep coming here when I find myself up north.

The crust/bottom bread is just perfect garlicky (crust is normally not perfectly flavored as this pizza dough) I can only imagine they would use this dough for bread sticks as well (maybe some cream cheese garlic spread or their pizza sauce to dip) because YES the pizza sauce was better than what you get at an Italian restaurant...seriously, so goood! Please try their pizza I also want to say it is nice clean gas station and a good selection. I like my tea and they always have a great selection
