    Just a little off 131 in Wayland, Michigan is this little brewery. We stopped on our way down to Kalamazoo from flying in to GR. The staff was very friendly (not surprising for Michigan) and the small space was filled with locals and families. We talked with the Beertender about being from Florida and just visiting home for a long weekend and when he found out we traveled often and always went to breweries, he quickly offered up some stickers for us to place at different breweries for them. I love that kind of stuff. We tried OpenRoad Brewery Scizor, Citradisiac Pale Ale, Easy Street Stout, Eldorado, Girl in a T-Shirt, Up the Country, and Whiterazz.

    I CANNOT believe it has taken us 8 months to finally check out Open Road, we live just down the road and kept talking about going there. Finally we went. The bar was a bit full, a couple tables were filled. We ordered our beers at the bar and take out food. We tried the Blueberry Lemonade Mead, highly recommended! So tasty. We will be coming back again and again for the mead. Come on in, find a seat and a wonderful staff member will take your order.

    Gotta love this joint! I must, I am mug 269! Seriously though, this is a great place to wet your whistle and chat up your fellow Waylanders. Not a local? Not a problem. The talk is always good and the beer outstanding. They also have an impressive selection of coders and mead. Well rounded! The point is lost for food offerings. They are still trying to figure it out, but what's there isn't so bad. They also need to be better staffed. Their workers are breaking their butts.

    Drinking a Road Rage Double IPA. 9.8 abv. Probably the best double IPA I have had yet!

    Wow what a great place to drink really good craft beer and hang out in an atmosphere that is very friendly and comfortable. Love the story and history of the building. Gotta check this place out!

    Great beer, great service. Just had an appetizer , spicy beer cheese did is very tasty. I'm not an IPA fan but their IPA's are the best I've ever had.

    Pretty basic deep fried food bar in a small town. Nothing spectacular. Need more menu options and more drink options.

    Railtown Brewing Company - Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich

    I am sad that our meal deserved such a low score. We've been customers since railtown began serving…read morefood. During Covid we ordered takeout at least once a week. The last time we were there was a few months ago. We were fairly surprised at the reduced menu. No Nashville hot chicken sandwich which was a staple. Yet they still have the hot honey? Only real difference is the sauce. So not sure why they took it off the menu. I ordered the Mac and cheese (and added chicken) I was looking forward to having leftovers. Well, it was very dry. Used to have a great cheesy sauce . Not this time. Barely any at all on the noodles let alone enough to cover . A bunch of dried breadcrumbs dumped on top. The chicken was chopped up and put on top of Mac and cheese under the breadcrumbs. Used to be larger pieces of grilled chicken that tasted very good. Not this time. This was not worth the $20. I ate about 5 bites . Took rest home to throw. Other entree was the chicken Parmesan sandwich. Chicken was on garlic bread ... it was saturated with garlic butter/ so greasy that it really was not good to eat. Sandwich would have been much better just on a regular bun. Our app of cheese curds is now Parmesan crusted cheese curds. They were ok but the original cheese curds were much better. We are really hoping that this was just an off night. We will try again in a couple months to see if things tip back to how railtown was. Very disappointing because we've been supporters of this restaurant for a long time. Not sure if whomever use to control the kitchen changed; but it is not the railtown we've known.

    Awesome brewery over in Dutton... all of the people who work here are just a delight to be around…read more I had Laney as a bartender today and she was absolutely amazing. I ordered the nachos, they were solid, but honestly I'd get the sauce on the side... overpowered them a bit but they were still delicious. The fried chicken Sammy is to die for... and then let's talk about the beer. I tried the October fest or their version of one and it is great... I also switched it up and went for the blonde and then the milk stout. All are worth the price of admission.

    We discovered this place at the recommendation of someone and also realizing there were restaurants…read moreat Tanger Outlet Mall. I can't believe we have not been here before. It's conveniently located within the Outlet Mall, so shop, eat and drink til your hearts content. The place is clean, roomy and alive with activity. There is a full service bar, high top tables and regular tables within the place. It also appeared there is an outdoor seating area, but it was closed for the winter. The waitress and host were friendly and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Our drinks and food came out really fast. The food was amazing. The group ordered various things. The nachos are HUGE! We chose beef for the meat but you can also get chicken and I think something else. Come hungry if you order this one. It also came with sour cream and salsa at not up charge. We did add the queso for an additional $2. The chips, toppings were all very fresh. The meat was not greasy and plentiful. The other dishes were a Reuben sandwich and a turkey wrap. Both of those were advised to be really good. The tater tots that came as aside on one dish was good but we've had better. Overall, we would definitely come back here again.

    I was very surprised to see such low ratings for this pub! We saw the ratings and thought we would…read moregive a try anyway. It was definitely a 5 star visit! We were seated right away. Our waitress was very kind and good at her job. We just had water to drink and I appreciated their style of having a big glass container of water filled at your table so you can refill whenever you need to. They were pretty busy but our food came out so fast and the food came out just as fast for everyone around us. We ordered the large southwest salad and the large signature salad. Both were phenomenal! The dressing on both salads were fantastic. The grilled chicken wasn't bland, it was seasoned so well! My boyfriend and I loved our salads and they filled us up for a dinner meal for sure. I will say I definitely think this is one of the best salads I have had. The corn mixture in the southwest salad was so flavorful. The space is very big with several tvs with sports on every tv. It is a laid back, sporty place. They do have bathrooms. This is a hidden gem because it's in the actual Tanger Outlet mall. It is definitely worth a visit! We normally don't try restaurants if that have a 3-3.5 star rating on Yelp but we decided to anyway because we were starving while shopping. 5 Lakes exceeded all expectations and we will certainly visit again when we are in the area!
