But we were glad to go here on a busy Fourth of July. We were the last customers in the door before closing and glad to have a good meal - and pie - and enjoy some welcome air conditioning. The staff was generous and kind throughout. Soup, sandwiches, Mac and cheese all great and so was the almost mandatory cherry pie. 5 well deserved stars for simple food delivered quick and tasty.

Grand Traverse Pie company has a great selection of pies including cherry and other fruit pies as well, but the classic cherry crumble was the decided favorite of our group. We also enjoyed a tasty lunch of quiche, chicken pot pie and salads. The food was delicious and I'll be dreaming about that pie for many nights to come! A must do stop in Traverse!

The hard shell/dipped cone wasn't on the menu but I asked and they have chocolate, cherry and peanut butter.

Wow- I'm still blown away by this place. This historic Italian market is what every town needs, and…read moreit totally hit the spot for lunch while in Traverse City before our Cidery Tour. Super cozy inside, I feel like I'm at home. The store has everything anyone needs; fresh meat & cheeses, olives, spices, pizza flour, dough, cookies, wine, desserts, take and bake pizzas, lasagna, pot pies, and so much more. We ordered one of the many delicious sandwiches on the menu. I chose the Chimp Boy Gravel Pants. Roasted turkey, sundried tomatoes, pesto, blue cheese, provolone, Italian dressing, stuffed in a ciabatta sub- AMAZING. That will be forever in my heart. Made with love. I wish I could've wrapped that shop up, put it in my pocket and brought it back to my hometown. I will definitely stop there each and every time I visit TC!

Since they allow dogs, we walked down there and had dinner. We only had a few minute wait so they could set up our table and then we were seated. You order at the counter so we got an order of spinach dip and the one of their flatbread pizzas. The pizza was good! Service was a little slow but it was a Saturday night. Unfortunately we never got our spinach dip. A girl came around and said it was sent out and then given to another table. They also said they'd refund it but I've still yet to see a refund on my credit card. I even asked the bartenders about it and they said they'd take care of it but still nothing. So I guess I'm out the money. I'd recommend d the place but their wait staff seems a bit chaotic and frazzled so I guess just be prepared for that.

Definitely a bakery to visit!!…read more They have a huge wooden chair outside as decor so you can't miss it! Inside smelled wonderful! I wanted to try everything! We got the breakfast sandwich (sooo good with jalapeno flavoring and it does have a kick)! It was very unique and tasty!! I eyes the coffee cake braided bread that also comes with frosting (same one used on the cinnamon rolls). I was suuuuper disappointed to find there were walnuts inside!! I hate walnuts and I hate nuts in my bread! I wish they had warned me or had a sign about it. We got the 3 little cinnamon rolls and they were good but Omlette Shoppe has the best cinnamon rolls.

One of the best cinnamon rolls on the planet! For sure. "Worth it!" Cookies are fantastic as well.read more

The eggs were perfectly cooked, the thick-cut bacon was delicious, and the candied jalapeños added just the right amount of sweet heat. The cherry sauce was the perfect finishing touch--flavorful without being overpowering--and everything was served on a fresh, delicious bakery bun. Every bite was outstanding! Combined with the relaxed outdoor seating, friendly service, and beautiful Sunday morning atmosphere, it made for the perfect casual breakfast. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend giving the Cherry Javelina Sandwich a try while it's available!

This burger has Candied Bacon, Pepper Jack Cheese, Grilled Poblanos, Lettuce, Grilled Onions, Chipotle Bbq sauce. The burger was very good. However it's not the best burger I've had in TC. The candied bacon was good, but not candied enough. There also wasn't enough of the bbq sauce. The quality of meat was good, but again wasn't the tastiest I've had in TC. The burger is definitely worth getting with the caveat that it isn't exceptional. The burger comes with Great Lake Potatoes Chips, due to they give you a pond of fries if you order fries. I didn't. I did order a Chocolate Shake ($9). It is a thick shake and reminds me of a Frosty, just more chocolaty. I enjoyed it, but I love frostys. The service was enthusiastic and friendly. Overall a solid 4 star review. Would I return? Yes, I would. Sometimes you crave a smash burger and this definitely hits that bill. Definitely worth a visit.
