My family may be a little biased since my grandma worked at Dean's when she was in high school…read more.. but in a family taste test which just consisted of trying both Plainwell Ice cream and Dean's in the same weekend (very scientific), Dean's came out on top! For us, the key differentiators were 1) such wide variety of ice cream options and 2) the awesome setting right by the river. There will always be something for everyone and new things to try. You can't beat sitting by the river on a summer day with a tasty sundae. I still haven't tried any of their hot food items but, again, they've got a huge selection that all sounds very satisfying. Totally recommend stopping by!

Best spot in Otsego to grab some delicious ice cream creations!!…read more My family, friends and I have been coming here for years....like since the 90's. So when I say this is the best spot in Otsego to grab some ice cream - I sincerely mean it. They offer lots of ice cream options: soft serve, hard serve, cone creations, sundaes, icebergs, flurries and parfaits. **Note: their flurries are huge - like shareable huge!

I grew up in Kalamazoo until I moved away at 25 years old, and though I knew of this store, I don't…read moreremember ever going into it before I moved. I very well may have as a child but wouldn't remember. Once I moved, going home came a very big deal to me and embraced Michigan, and more importantly, Kalamazoo became so much of a bigger deal to me. Each time I have been home since 2007, I have stopped into The Spirit of Kalamazoo to check out what new items they may have that I feel I "need." I have gotten things over the years that now I wished I got two of, specially the "Just Another Animal in the Zoo" cup that I bought in pink, but broke and I cannot find anywhere online to replace. The store has lots of odds and end art pieces from local artist, some of which I pick up as I go for when I can make an amazing room filled with things from home and sports, especially since I am a die hard Michigan sports fan. The staff are always friendly and helpful but also let you shop without hovering over you. I am very glad that I can help this local business each time I am home, as it has become part of my journey now.

The ice cream itself is incredible, with a wide variety of flavors that taste so fresh and creamy. I especially love that they use Michigan dairy--it means a lot to me to support local farms and businesses. The shop has a true "local supporting local" vibe: local shop, local ice cream, Michigan creamery. And the best part? The pricing is super reasonable and won't break your wallet, which makes it an easy stop for families or anyone looking for a sweet treat. If you're in Paw Paw or just passing through, The Scoop Shop is a must-visit!

Honestly, excellent. It was old school service. Bread, drink refills, etc. We did two appetizer,…read morethe Brie and steak. Both were excellent, Brie being my daughter's and my favorite (even ordered one to go). I order the ribs, so good! My daughter had the NY strip (loved it), husband had the fillet (loved it), son had quesadillas (I honestly couldn't tell, he said he liked them). We all had desserts, and all were outstanding. Lots of leftovers. Drinks were also lovely. I'm kind of embarrassed that we've never come here before. Service was great, everything was wonderful.

We have been meaning to dine here for quite some time and we finally made it. If I had to…read morecharacterize this restaurant, I'd call it a diamond in the rough. You just don't expect to find fine dining in such a rural setting. We arrived a half hour before our reservation (must have) being that we were coming from so far away. We were told our table wouldn't be available until close to our reservation time. No problem. Four Roses has a very nice bar. My wife had a glass of wine and after perusing their pretty impressive bourbon list, I ordered my drink. First observation-bourbon and wine very reasonably priced. I also like the fact they had large cubes so I could enjoy my drink before it got watered down. Cubes were perfectly clear as well. We were shown to our table about ten minutes early and started to review the menu. Four Rose's menu has many staples but changes often adding specials. Our server came by quickly and answered our questions. We had many as there were so many great dishes to consider. Rolls right out of the oven were also brought to our table. My wife ordered White Fish Grenoble and I had the Maple Mustard Baby Back Ribs. I didn't care for the vegetables offered so I substituted rice. My wife was not overly impressed with her choice calling it very bland with almost no flavor. She loved the vegetables however. Portions were large-just not to her liking. My ribs were excellent. The maple mustard sauce was so good I asked my server for more. We both thought the rice was brittle - perhaps overcooked. Four Rose's is also known for their deserts and we were tempted. I had amaretto coconut creme pie. Excellent. My wife loves toffee pudding so she was excited to try it when she saw it on the menu. Unfortunately it was more of a toffee bread pudding then actual pudding. The server quickly took it off the bill when she returned and saw it was barley touched. Our server needs to be cloned as she was so good and responsive. Even with these short comings, our experience was excellent and we will be back.
