    Proud local owners of this fine shop.

    Unbelievable hospitality! Great owners who really care to deliver the very best products. Bread is homemade, has the ham & cheese on a croissant. Pastry's galore.. one better than the next. Support small locally owned businesses and give them a try. Wish I could give 6 stars

    Moose & Stella's is exactly what I want in a local breakfast spot!…read more First of all, I absolutely LOVE the whole dog theme. Knowing the restaurant is named after their dogs makes all of the dog decor even more adorable, and the fact that they have treats for your four-legged family members too is such a fun touch. Beyond being incredibly cute and pet-friendly, the food is phenomenal. They have great breakfast options, really fun coffee drinks, and you can actually take the whole family out for breakfast without breaking the bank, which feels increasingly rare. It has that comfortable, welcoming local feel where you can get a genuinely great meal without anything feeling overly fancy or overpriced. Delicious food + fun coffee + dogs + reasonable prices? You really can't go wrong.

    We had the pleasure of stopping into the lovely restaurant in Kalkaska. We made the decision purely…read moreout of the fact that they had seating outside and we had our golden retriever with us. I don't think we could have picked a better Restaurant to have our dog with! We literally had no idea that this restaurants theme is dogs! Moose and Stella's is such a cute Restaurant! The dog decor is absolutely adorable! We were greeted warmly and told our dog was absolutely welcome and they brought her a big bowl of water and some biscuits! This is definitely a mom café with lots of delicious looking foods to choose from. I decided on the corned beef hash as it was mentioned that it was homemade and popular and we also chose blueberry pancakes as it came highly recommend recommended. My husband chose a skillet that had several types of meat and sausage, gravy and hashbrowns. It was a daily special. Our waitress and other staff were so kind and kept our coffee cups full. As a sidenote, it was fairly close to closing time I would say about 45 minutes before they closed and not once did we ever feel like we had to rush. Our food came out and looked absolutely delicious! The servings were very big and everything was hot. The corned beef has was most likely the best I've ever had!! it was like a very rustic take on what I know is corned beef and I absolutely loved it! It was very flavorful and it had that nice crispy. Text her and places that you really crave with corn beef hash. 10/10! The blueberry pancakes were exceptional as well. They were light and fluffy and fresh blueberries all throughout. My husband skillet was full of all kinds of breakfast meats, cheese, hashbrowns, and gravy. I don't think you can do much better than that. He said everything was delicious and he really liked the gravy which is a complement to the business as he is extremely picky about sausage gravy! My daughter had the kids hamburger slider with fries and applesauce and she said it was delicious! Just a sidenote, they have a small menu for your dogs as well! We ordered our dog, Marley, a big hamburger patty and she gave it a 10 out of 10 We will return again and again, we come to the area for vacation and this restaurant will definitely be in our normal rotation when we visit!

We happened upon Brennan's completely by accident after getting out of the car to check out a mural. We stopped in for coffee, started chatting with the owner, and she suggested that we go check out another mural nearby. So obviously we did. That mural led us to THREE more, and suddenly what had started as simply stopping to look at some art turned into this completely unplanned, ridiculously fun date exploring murals and places we never would have found otherwise. And the coffee was so good that what was supposed to be a random stop has now turned into us coming back every morning since. The drinks are fantastic, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the kind of local hospitality where someone takes the time to say, "Hey, if you liked that, you should go see this..." is exactly what makes discovering a small business so special. Brennan's didn't just become part of our date they helped create the date. Five stars for the coffee, the kindness, and for accidentally sending us on one of our favorite spontaneous adventures.

I ordered an iced dirty chai which is my go to at coffee shops. Pros: the service was good. Cons: it was $10 which is diabolical, it tastes like water, and didn't even have good ice cubes lol. I saw a handful of other folks in there holding coffees and they all looked too watery or milky.

    Iron Goat Coffee is such a great addition to the Walloon Village!…read more We recently stayed nearby and walked over to IGC on a Friday morning and again on Saturday morning... The Friday morning visit was five stars. We walked in and must have hit it at just the right time as there was no line. My husband and I ordered the lavender chai latte off the Spring time special menu. I ordered mine with oat milk and his with regular and asked them to make both of them dirty. We were both super happy with this selection. We didn't have to wait very long even though there was only one person working that day. The next morning, there was a long line and two people working... and the specialty menu was no longer available. Even so, they did let my husband order the lavender chai latte again. I went with a flat white with oat milk and light lavender. We waited quite awhile and noticed others around us did as well. It was fine since we were not in a rush, but not the best experience. Clearly the staff were stressed with the rush of people and so many orders to fill. The coffees were once again delicious. There is a limited food menu and a small retail area, as well as indoor and outdoor seating. There isn't any other gourmet coffee in the area to my knowledge, so if you are wanting a fancy coffee, this may be your only option. If you hit it right, you will have an incredible experience, but if there is a line during a busy time, be prepared for a bit of a wait. Either way, enjoy your time at Walloon Lake - it's magical!
