Solid meal. Waffles are pretty sweet. Chicken does not have bone in, which I liked. Might need a second thing of syrup if you like your chicken covered too. read more

Worked for hours Saturday on Pumpkin Fest displays, decided I was done for the day and not going to cook. Called in for a deluxe pizza and breadsticks, the girl on the phone was a joy to speak with, she took the order, double checked, gave us our time of 26 minutes and said goodbye. We went to pick up our order, my husband was in and out toot sweet. Got home and opened the boxes and the food was amazing. So good. My husband said that there were three girls working and everyone looked happy. I guess everything went well, and I had pizza for breakfast. read more

The staff is so kind and welcoming. My first impression was how clean it looked and felt. The prices were acceptable for most seniors that love going out and expect quantity for their dollar. Two separate tables near me were splitting dinners. I will own this experience. My perception of this establishment was a little skewed. I had it in my head this was a farm to table experience. THE FARMHOUSE - Local, Fresh, Delicious. No pricing, which further convinced me that it's normal when you're sourcing from local farmers to have price fluctuations. I did not do any further research and continued on. The menu handed to me had a large content of dishes with no theme. That should have grabbed my attention. It didn't. I ordered the smothered meatloaf, with mashed potatoes, broccoli, and extra side of coleslaw. Nothing had flavor. Not even the Swiss cheese. The coleslaw was from a tub. It had that gel slippery texture that is loaded with preservatives. The broccoli was fresh, but it had a strange sour taste. I'm not sure what exactly is made from scratch, but the pulled pork comes from Gordon's. That was confirmed when asked if it was made fresh here, or is it Gordon's. The carrot cake was good and that is made in-house. This review is not intended to ruin a local favorite for many in the senior community. My intention is to bring to attention that this is not farm to table, and the format of the website is similar to The Farmhouse Deli in Douglas, which is founded on locally sourced ingredients and freshly made food. The staff and cleanliness deserves 5 stars. My meal was 1 star. I didn't bring the leftovers for lunch. I don't want it again. read more

Called in order for lunch pickup. No online ordering option. Pay at pickup. Parking lot was packed. Food was ready at the front. The cup of Chicken Rice soup wasn't what I expected - look and size, but it was perfect for a cold day. My preconceived thought of a Club Sandwich has toasted bread, cut into quarters. This one was slathered in butter and on a flat top. It was gooey and delicious, but heavy and rich. I could only eat half for lunch and ate the other half later. read more

The overall ambiance of the restaurant was great. A nice spot for old folks and families to get some good affordable food. I did however have a couple of things that put a damper on my experience. For one, my husband ordered his burger to be a double (as in 2 patties) and the waitress seemed like she had written that part down, but when we received the meal, it was only a single patty. Another thing that I really disliked was that one of the employees started vacuuming during the middle of our meal. I understand that this restaurant closes at 8pm, but it was about 6pm when we were dining. I don't think that employees should be creating an unsettling noisy atmosphere when they aren't even close to closing. It just made me and my husband feel sort of rushed to get out, when that is the opposite of what a restaurant should do. read more

Good solid breakfast comfort food. I wanted to try this place and finally got the chance. Lots of locals and regulars enjoying the company of friends and family here. Solid food and the best strawberry jam that I have had in awhile. I had the Southern Omelet and raisin toast. read more

Never had a bad meal! Generous portions and great service! Even when busy it's usually pretty quiet. I go almost once a week or 2!

Food: my wife ordered the waffle. She gave it a rating of C. It was tough and she would not order it again. I rated my hot cakes a B. They provided a thermos of Coffe that was nice. read more

The breakfast I had, was 3 scrambled eggs, bacon, hash brown potatoes and cinnamon toast with homemade strawberry jam. The food was ample portions and tasty. The 'scrambled' eggs as often is the case are just a chopped bunch of flatop grilled eggs. That's not really not scrambled eggs, their chopped up eggs. The bacon was a bit chewy. Hash brown potatoes were crispy and tasty. The toast was good. The most outstanding thing for me, was the homemade strawberry jamb! The wait time was longer than anticipated. However the restaurant was quite busy at 9:45 on Friday morning. The wait staff was kind and polite. The ambiance was very nice. New and fresh remodel. It was a nice dinning experience with good but not outstanding food. I recommend it for a nice average or a bit above that breakfast. read more

I got the farmhouse omelette and it was amazing. I love hashbrowns, so it was perfect. I also had an English muffin with their homemade strawberry jelly/jam.....I actually asked if they sold the jelly!!!! I will be back! Every employee had a smile on their face. The hostess was busy taking payments and seating people, yet still waited on me with a smile. read more

Had the biscuits and gravy and it was really good. Our waiter was great to work with and really responsive. It's clear it's a favorite spot for the locals. Got a few glares that read as "who's this guy" from the other customers. Always a good sign that they have so many regulars. read more

A very nice simple and rustic atmosphere, with a warm inviting feeling! I ordered the Sloppy Joe sandwich with fries and since I know sloppy joes aren't usually the most filling I also ordered a side salad. The side salad was actually quite large and had different types of greens. Very simply it was an excellent salad. The Sloppy Joe was Outstanding, easily the 2nd best I've ever had. The 1st was my friends mom's, so not available, lol. The fries had a great texture and were very good. The person I was with got the Blueberry Feta Salad. It was very large and pretty. It had lots of blueberries and pecans. It was stated to be wonderful! The portion sizes for the most part was very generous and fairly priced. The service was very friendly and efficient. The food cane out shockingly quickly, though they weren't busy at about 2pm. Overall an easy 5 stars. We will be back. We both stated it needed to go on our repeat list. I highly recommend giving Farmhouse a try! read more

You guys. I have joined the ranks of people who eat miniature meals so to speak so my review game has been weak. Today I was so excited to try the Farmhouse for my first time! I went with my amazing in laws for a nice late lunch at 12:45 to avoid the rush. We were greeted by a server who acted like she didn't want to be there. I know, I'm a pro. I'm not only a nurse but I still pick up some server shifts when I feel like adding to my bank account. Any how, she was fine. I wouldn't say kind, but she brought us food. I did hear her snap at a different server about how there's two tables waiting and how she can't go home yet. If this is the owner, shame on you. I had every intention of getting a patty melt with no bang bang sauce, eating a little and taking it home. The server said they had chili and that's what I got instead! So food came out hot. The fam all got a fish dinner of sorts. I can't have fried anything so I didn't get to taste theirs. My chili was hot. Here is where it gets tricky. Either I have Covid and lack of taste is my only symptom, or these guys don't season their food. Now I've said before that this is the whitest area I've ever lived in and I don't know if anyone has ever taught y'all how to season your food, but please. Please take yourselves down to the Carolinas. GA. AL. TX. AZ. All of these places have one thing in common. Seasoning. And people of the non light beige persuasion. That's probably why. If you don't have 30 different herbs, spices, and seasonings in your pantry at all times then I just don't know, but my chili had exactly zero in it. Next time I'm going to bring my own adobo shaker in with me. Not even playing. The one with picante. Y'all gotta check that one out. Two stars cause the hostess was nice. read more

No. Just no. Sent my food back because of excessive fryer grease that was pooling on my plate. The replacement was worse. Manager inferred that I was making poor menu choices, that if i didn't want the grease i should order a salad. Never again. Bad food, bad management. read more

I ordered a burger and onion rings .. the burger was a frozen patty and the onion rings were greasy.. when we got back to the RV Park I started going to the bathroom constantly til it finally stopped needless the say the food was horrible read more

TL;DR - the onion rings were delicious, as were the potato kegs. Maybe that's because we were hungry. The pizza was pretty bad, and the service was almost intolerable. I get that it's busy and you're short-staffed, but you can't expect someone to want to eat at your establishment, let alone leave a tip based on this experience. We won't be coming back, and would recommend to others to avoid this place as well. I hate that nearly every time I've gone out to eat recently it's been a poor experience. We came into Holland for the Tulip Festival this past Saturday and on our way home, stopped into The Farmhouse with my parents for lunch. We arrived around 1:10PM and got seated pretty quickly, with two tables ahead of us. Our server came by and we put in a drink order, which came out near instantaneously. We all looked at our menus and came up with decisions on what to order, but our server never came back. By 1:30PM, I had to stop her on her way to another table and ask if we could put our food order in. So, we put in for some appetizers, along with our entrees, and proceed to settle in. 1:45PM - Our appetizers get delivered. The server doesn't have the cheese for our potato kegs and asks if we still wanted it. I say yes, and she lets me know that it's still being prepared, but it should be right out, but we never see it until later. They inform my dad that his Reuben sandwich bread (Marbled Rye) is unavailable so they give him some other options and he ultimately chooses a different bread. 1:50PM I can see a pizza sitting under the heatlamp, and I'm pretty sure it's mine. This heatlamp is right at the plating window from the kitchen, so although they put it to the side, everyone else is getting their food from this window, reaching around it, etc. One thing to keep in mind is that the other 3 people all ordered sandwiches of some sort. Not sure how my pizza came up first, but that's poor planning on the kitchen's part. 2:10PM - Our food finally gets delivered, 40 or so minutes after putting it in. Somehow, "no cheese" gets put into the system as "no swiss" on my wife's club, so it still comes out with American cheese. We send it back, since she doesn't eat cheese. The server gets right on it, and that remade sandwich is done in 2-3 minutes. When she comes back, we ask her to get refills on the two sodas that have been sitting at the edge of the table along with this cheese that was supposed to come out. The refills and the cheese arrive. Everyone's eating, the food looked pretty good, with the exception of my pizza. Maybe it's the mental part where I saw it sit for as long as it did, but the crust was trash, it didn't have much sauce on it so it was dry, and it was super salty. 2:30PM - We eat, finish up, and ask for a receipt and boxes. I also ask for a solo cup for the leftover cheese and I'm given a 20 oz. Styrofoam cup. I guess if that's all you have, I'll make it work, but just one more thing that made the interaction feel odd. I go and pay for the check - the other person working rings me up and asks how everything was, and I respond with "meh". No indication of concern, just "you can stick your card in, it's going to ask you a question...". A lady waiting overhears our interaction and proceeds to ask to be taken off the list, and her and her family would go somewhere else. Felt like a small win, all things considered. I ask for change so I can tip in cash vs. on the card, and she proceeds to provide some smaller bills. 2:35PM - We're packed up and I use the restroom before heading out. A little dirty, but I've certainly seen much worse. I leave a tip, and we're on our way. I won't be back again, and not that my opinion matters, but I'll be sure to tell people to avoid this place in the future. read more

Our first visit. The ambiance was very cool Americana farm style. The food was poor quality! The omelette was flat and uninspired. The pancakes were grainy, sugary and tasteless. Order basic bacon and eggs or eat someplace else. read more

I stopped in for an early lunch while working and discovered only breakfast is served until 11. Since I'm not usually a breakfast fan, I had to find something that sounded decent and settled on the waffles. They were more than decent, they were yummy. The strawberry topping was fresh strawberries in glaze, which was way better than any strawberry syrup or pre-made product they could offer. The waffles themselves were fresh and sweet as well and tasted great with the strawberries. I also had an excellent glass of fresh squeezed orange juice. My total came to less than 15 dollars with tax and tip, so it was an ok price. The initial wait and seating process was a little hectic, but the food was worth it. I will return next time I am in the area. read more

Lots of selection, very tasty and full of flavors. Beautifully plated. Great wait staff! Price is excellent too!

I think this place's local reputation is better than it should be. Inexperienced and inattentive wait staff make the lack-luster fare even less appealing. I would complain that the portion size was on the small side but after tasting the food, smaller portions may be a blessing. Dining options in Zeeland are limited and that may be the reason this place is still open. read more

Service was good. Was busy, not super loud Clean environment. Nice servers. The fresh squeezed orange juice is super GOOD. They have wonderful Homemade Jam. Biscuits n gravy are killer here! I'm super picky about my sausage country gravy. I have to keep in mind all prices went up every where. One of my go to spots for breakfast. Used to go there a lot b 4 new owners. I still go there, just not as often. We eat out less these days bc of prices. Would recommend for breakfast. Yes... Idk ‍ about lunch. Never tried lunch here. Breakfast is a yes for me!! read more

Saturday at 5 p.m. There was a short wait, made shorter because a couple let us go ahead of them (thanks). Our group of four was taken to a small square table, where I sat near the path of foot traffic. To be fair, there were booths available, but we needed space for a wheelchair. With few exceptions, the customers were people older than me (and I'm 70). Most items on the menu were $10 and higher. (I knew some of the prices already because I'd looked at the web site menu.) The food arrived in due time. The portions were small and tasteless. I mean, the taste wasn't bad ... there was just NO taste. Their special Boom Boom sauce (Cheez-Whiz?) helped, but started to skin over within minutes. Why was the place so popular? Maybe they know their clientele, people who want to eat early, who like bland food, and don't mind paying more than it's worth. This is a one-time only for me. Oh, and nobody ever offered to refill our drinks. Yes, things were busy, yet there seemed to be many young servers on staff. read more

Unless you are on the verge of starvation, avoid this place (possibly even then). I ordered the chicken sandwich. It was as hard as a hockey puck. The fries were horrible with a bizarre texture. I hate to disparage a business, but my meal was truly bad. On the plus side, our server was a delight. read more

My husband and I came here, the wait wasn't long. We sat down and talked while drinking coffee. The food we ordered wasn't complicated, we started to notice people that came in after us started getting their food. We finally got our food, it just seem odd, that it took so long. Maybe the food is made to order, then I guess I could understand. read more

The food is good. Some of the servers are not so friendly. The pizza is really good. I wish they served other things on the menu in the morning. read more

A good place to stop for a quick bite of no frills lunch or breakfast. Hot turkey sandwich was ok, nothing out of the ordinary and the chicken sandwich was about the same. Service was adequate. Prices were a bit on the higher side for the portions served. read more

Incredible experience. Great diversity (on their menu). The waitress was prompt and tentative. My orange juice arrived within less than 60 seconds. The atmosphere was down homey. Will become a regular! read more

The Whitefish Dinner was not what I was hoping for. It was served luke warm & dried out. The thin fillet were rubbery. It also had many small bones in it. I know the bones can be common in a fish dinner, but I was disappointed. read more

My fiancé and I decided to drive out 45 minutes JUST to go here again, since we had such a wonderful experience the first time, and we are so pleased! Our server even remembered our preferences, and brought the same type of hot sauce I asked for during our last visit! It's the small details that make the huge differences, and the staff goes out of their way to show they care and get it right every time One more thing: The Pickle Pizza is the best pizza I've had since moving back from the east coast. To. DIE. For. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for a new favorite food read more

We were seated at a table with no silverware. Waitress eventually arrived and took order and we asked for silverware. When she brought the order, she only brought partial silverware and missed part of my order. I couldn't catch her attention so personally went to counter to obtain it. It was on the kitchen complex food area Food was ok, somewhat overpriced. Service was terrible read more

The best breakfast in town. Except for the other place. The orange juice is the baddest. I like it, there the best. Ugh, thinking about that orange juice makes me want to spit it out. It has so many pulp:) Great food, too highly priced and small portions. I ate my small pancakes and a muffin. Good review for the muffins! read more

There were two of us nobody greeted us right away in fact they acted like we were interrupting. We ordered the cheeseburger with fries and a wet burrito. The cheeseburger was so "thin" and it was a frozen patty and it came with nothing on it, even the ketchup bottle at the table was empty (horrible). The wet burrito was no better! It came loaded with rice and beans and I barely got one bite of ground beef out of the whole thing! So the wet burrito I could do with out also because I wasnt expecting 90 percent rice "yuck." Yeah we wont be back read more

Live near here and use to come here when it was Jay's. I haven't really been here since but thought we would try it. Our waitress Melissa was wonderful and is the main reason I gave 3 stars. She kept up on our drinks and checked in with us nearly every time she walked past. The food was ok. The spinach artichoke dip was not the topical dip you expect and many of our chips where just crumbs. The onion rings were a bit dark but was probably the best thing I ate. My chicken wrap with boom boom sauce had very little sauce and I had to really look to make sure it was on my wrap. It didn't have a lot of flavor and didn't come with any side. I am glad we got the starters or I wouldn't have been full after the meal. I most likely won't be coming back anytime soon. read more

My wife and I had breakfast there this morning. We stopped in yesterday to see if we could take our small dog along for breakfast outside in the parking lot. They said yes come back. We came back and we asked again before they seated us about the dog. They said yes and brought us to our table outside. We spent about $40 with tip. After the bill was paid the manager came out and said very loudly dogs are not allowed outside and said don't come back with the dog. I sure felt the Zeal. We are staying at a local hotel while looking to buy a home in the area for my job new job. Thanks for the welcome. read more

2nd time here for lunch and was shocked by how busy it was for a holiday! We waited almost 45 min for a table. Our server I think was a bit frazzled by the volume of customers also, because service was very slow and she didn't come back to check on us very often. The food was 5 star, service 3 star, so we went with a 4 star review. We will try you again! read more
