I was in town and had to try a burger after watching a few reviews that have come up in my feed…read more I ordered the Blue cheese burger and got it with mushrooms and the Frank's hot ranch on the side. Delicious. Like a four napkin burger haha. It isn't overly large, although a 12 ounce option is available. It's just bar grilled goodness with shredded lettuce and packed with flavor. The inside reminds me of The Bird in Mt. Pleasant. The waitress was great, refilled drinks without asking and it was busy but not packed around 3 on a weekday. Also had sweet potato fries and they were perfect darker orange but not burned. Lunch for two was $30 for 2 burgers and soda.

I love Schubergs and each time I go I try a new menu item. My food is always fresh and…read moremade-to-order. I have long loved their sweet potato fries and was devastated when they were removed from the menu. (I hope, at some point, they make a triumphant return!) Try the Mushroom Swiss "Schu" or the cod basket. They're excellent!

Good drink menu for my purposes. My party enjoyed the chicken wrap, bean burger, veggie burger and chicken wings. The wings came out over cooked, but the replacement came out prefect. Gythnth (Gwen) provided excellent service. The food came out hot, including the fries! This my dear reader is unfortunately a rarity. This is not sophisticated dining establishment. It is pub fare, with great service in a scenic location. Five stars for execution.

The place has, on occasion, been loud and chaotic during the dinner hour. I don't think it's the best choice for parents with small children. Having said that, if you're not in a hurry and you want a good meal, eat at the Gypsy Nickel.

Ordered up the Whitefish, pan seared…read more A slow, sleepy night in Big Rapids, which I never heard of until it was the only place with available hotel rooms south of Cadillac. A fancy upscale traditional steakhouse feel and decor. Four golf elder statesmen across the street getting ice cream as dessert recommended this place. The bar was just me and the tender and at 8:30, the staff was wrapping and cleaning up on the 8/2 Wednesday evening. No tv, minimal noise and subtle indistinguishable background music but catchy to my blues and R&R ears. So...the food... when the plate was put under my nose, I knew it was going to be culinary special. Everything and all of it was special. The Whitefish, perfectly tender, seasoned and mouthwatering. The risotto was creamy and soooo tasty. The broccoli and cauliflower, taken to a new level so it's not just good for you. Finally, the service was great with the young friendly guys, Jesse and Jackson, being very attentive and gracious. Thanks to the four guys who recommended this restaurant. Now, for a guilty pleasure serving of small town homemade ice cream where I asked them "where to eat"??

The only thing I was kind of disappointed in was...the restaurant seemed to be a little rundown, especially the restroom. If they updated the decor and design it would have a better ambiance.

The atmosphere is good especially on the bar side. That said the wait staff brought me stuff I didn't order, didn't bring stuff out that I DID order, asked my friend with two kids if he would pay for the kids or if they were each paying their own way and forgot all condiments. The Chicago dog was a boiled dog with diced cucumbers and tomatoes....sad....

Good food and brews. Usually busy. Service is average…read more Currently they are "having issues" getting orders from Door Dash. Door Dash cancelled my order after an hour because the restaurant never got my order. I called Crankers and talked to, I think he said his name was Aaron (the manager). He said that they have been having trouble getting orders from door dash. I asked him why he still had his restaurant on Door Dash then if he is going to make people wait an hour just to not even get their food. I will not be ordering here for a while again. Since the pandemic hit a lot of restaurants have stepped up their game with Door Dash and alike to still have bus ones. I guess Crankers in Big Rapids has yet to figure it out.

From the moment we sat down, he was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome.

My wife and I stopped here for a weekday late lunch--had the place mostly to ourselves. We…read moreordered a 4-beer sample flight, a couple of IPAs, a winter lager, and a brown ale. All good, but we were most impressed with the brown--very malty with a nice hop tingle, more substantive than most brown ales I've had, though still less than 5% ABV. The server mentioned it was a new addition to their tap menu, and I hope they'll keep it. We both got a pint to go with lunch. Lunch took the form of the house salad: lettuce and typical salad fixings with bacon and chicken topping it off. Lots of bacon! Wouldn't have minded less, not that I didn't eat every bit. The chicken was tender and juicy, and all the greenery was fresh. Very nice midday meal. While I don't pass through BR very often, I'll make a point of returning here when I do.

Promises he has kitchen to cook your event in Grand Rapids and delivers it from Big Rapids. Party of 150 and the food goes cold in 20 minutes with no prep to keep it warm. Our President chose to go to the back of the line and the food was cold when he was served, They ran out of tortillas at a taco bar. His workers are great, the owner does not care. Way cheaper than the competition and you still will not get your moneys worth. Your team will be disappointed. And don't share concerns, he will cuss at ya. The customer is never right.
