The best breakfast in Michigan. It starts with fresh coffee. Piping hot and strong. If your…read moreappetite is geared to classic breakfast choices, you're covered. Eggs, perfectly cooked, biscuits and gravy, sausage, sandwiches, all hand made fresh. Specials from around the world change everyday if you are a more adventurous diner. On weekends they serve artisan pizza, not gas station greasy, as good as Chicago or Detroit, and other specials from their outdoor smoker. The atmosphere is green, peaceful and country, surrounded by a farm. The service is personal and not rushed. It has a drive through but its charm is meant to be absorbed at a Croton pace. Sit down, watch the hummingbirds, hear the donkeys bray in the distance. Enjoy great food, maybe even listen to some acoustic live music. There is only one of these in the world. Do yourself a favor, experience something unique and delicious in a setting that is blissful.

A local man recommended this place to me, said if it was weekend I could stay and eat all day, but still would get a giant plate of deliciousness even on a Wednesday afternoon.. I believed him on the quality, doubted his claims on the quantity, and boy was I wrong.. The food was incredible, enormous portions, waitresses were all super nice and friendly, very welcoming to an outsider/traveler like myself, and will definitely be going out of my way to stop back by here whenever I am back in state!

Would have driven right by this place if it hadn't been recommended by locals. Came for breakfast and will definitely return. We shared several meals because we couldn't decide on just one thing each. The special of the day was Eggs Benedict, delicious! We also tried the Biscuits and Gravy...chock full of sausage, the Loaded Hash Browns (nice and crispy), and Eggs, Bacon and American potatoes. Tip: If your meal includes toast, order the Sourdough toast, grilled with butter.

I appreciated that they had a "garden grown" section on their menu with vegetarian options. My burger was delicious and the coleslaw was genuinely the best I've ever had (a wild claim as someone who's lived in the south half their life!). I also ordered a seasonal coffee from their Valentine's menu that was raspberry and white chocolate flavored. I'm not always a fruit flavored coffee person, but River Stop Cafe does it well! Despite it being quite busy during our visit, service was still relatively quick and the ambiance made for an enjoyable wait.

She explained Covid and mis management contributed to the lack luster reviews, but she is striving to turn this place around. First, there's 2 sides to the restaurant with a kitchen in the middle. We walked in on the log cabin looking side, which has a few tables and not much room. That's the side that had most vehicles parked. Only to learn that the longer side of building, is considered the "bar" side. We walked around, and a much larger dining room, with pool tables, TV screens, and a bar. They are anticipating finally being able to serve beer, wine and full bar before the end of Feb 2024...until then, soda pops and ice tea, coffee and hot tea. Alcohol will be available on both sides. All you can eat Fish Fry Friday, $14.99. 3 large pieces of fish(pollock), choice of coleslaw, apple sauce, cottage cheese or side salad. Also choice of potato: battered dip, bake potato, sweet potato. The fish is Pollock and you can choose: "dry"- crunchy, "wet" which is battered dipped, baked or Cajon. We tried the wet and dry, and liked both! The coleslaw had mandarin oranges and carrots, the side salad is what you'd expect. Waitstaff was hustling, trying to ensure no delays in serving. Definitely need to come back to try their breakfast and other menu items. Sounds like they are going to have entertainment on weekends, maybe Battle of the Bands, and "car shows"....stay tuned...and try them out.
