If a customer can't easily select your products, there is an issue with how you present it.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I look forward to visiting every time I am home…read more Diane and Sharon, sisters, run this lovely shop and are so great at what they do. Very unassuming in the rural area of Alto, across from Campau Corner and very much a great addition. It's primarily pick up/take out, as they don't have a seating area for dining in. The menu boasts amazing staples, all house made, hummus, pita, fattoush salad, spanakopita, baklava, baked goods, daily specials such as gyros and so much more. I've tried a few things over the years, but on this most recent visit enjoyed the gattoush salad, spinach pie, meat pie, cheese bread and cinnamon rolls. All stand out. Diane absolutely hooked it up throwing a few extra goodies in when I visit and making sure there were cinnamon rolls for me, upon my request. Cream cheese frosting and absolutely delicious, cinnamon goodness. The meat pie was perfectly flavored and paired with the salad perfectly. All made fresh and packed to order. The snicker doodle and chocolate chip cookies are also delightful.I honestly could eat here every day and probably would if I lived nearby. I can't wait to work my way through the whole menu and finally get my hands on a gyro from them one day.

I searched donut places that were on the way and this bakery popped up. Back in Cincinnati we have a donut shop everyone loves to go to so while in Grand Rapids I thought it would be better to get a unique spot instead of Dunkin or Krispy Kreme. When you walk in it has a normal bakery feel with the donuts on display. The variety of donuts isn't anything special but they have all the necessities. Not only that the prices were way better than what I would have predicted ! Only $11 for a dozen donuts! It is very hard to select 12 donuts. The price is definitely better than Marge's Donut Den which I also went to to try out both. These donuts tasted absolute amazing!

Rolling into Crane's, I really wasn't sure what to expect, but the vibes, the grounds, the service, and the amazing selection of eats, drinks and treats had us grinning ear to ear! We were a BIG group and let me tell you, this place is built exactly for that! From the massive outdoor covered patio to the sprawling dining room, there is a spot for everyone to enjoy. The grounds are incredibly beautiful too, and there are picnic benches dotting the hillside and lots of little place you could park for a picnic. We came for the pie flight and I've gotta say, it's was a little tricky to figure out where to get those adorable little mason jars. For those wondering, just get a table in the dining room, which is super warm, charming, and inviting! We got a big table at the back and had a fabulous server who made this experience great for everyone, screaming children included. The pie was actually REALLY good, and I loved the wine and cider flight too. The fact you can mix and match made this incredibly fun, even at 10am.
