There is a wait because the food is amazing, and everyone knows it, we are happy to wait our turn to get in to eat multiple times a week because it's like a home away from home, only with better food. Another huge plus here besides the amazing food and friendly staff is the turn around time on food. Idk what kind of magic they do in the kitchen but the food is always ready in the blink of an eye. Ask for a side of the chipotle ranch, trust me, it will change your life. All year round this is my go to place to eat, the soups are better than I could ever make, the stuffed hashbrowns are amazing, their Bloody Marys are perfect! So good, you may have to wait cuz everyone knows how good it is, but I promise it's worth it! Put in your name, go browse around town, enjoy the experience!

We were vacationing in Ludington and decided to have dinner at Old Hamlin Restaurant downtown. The…read moreword "old" definitely matches the style of the restaurant. The interior feels dated, but also warm, welcoming, and homey. It has the charm of a place that has been serving the same homemade recipes for generations, and it truly feels like both the restaurant and the recipes have remained true to their roots since opening day. We were seated quickly, and our waitress, Sydney, greeted us promptly. She was friendly and took the time to tell us about the daily specials and homemade soups. Two of our children ordered the kids' spaghetti, while our other child had the chicken strips and fries. I ordered the Monterey Chicken Sandwich based on Sydney's recommendation, and my husband chose the meatloaf sandwich with a cup of chicken noodle soup. Everything we ordered was good. The kids all enjoyed their meals, and I absolutely loved my sandwich. My husband enjoyed the meatloaf as well, although he mentioned he would probably try something different if we return on a future visit. The homemade pies looked incredible, but we already had dessert plans elsewhere, so we'll have to save those for another time. Overall, while the restaurant's interior may feel a bit dated, the homemade food, reasonable prices, and friendly service made for a very enjoyable meal. If you're looking for a comforting, home-cooked meal while visiting Ludington, Old Hamlin Restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

The ice cream is that good, and the history and story behind the building make this place such a fun stop. It's easily become one of our all-time favorite ice cream shops! I got the Eskimo Kisses and my husband got the Peanut Butter Bull's-Eye, and both were absolutely incredible. The ice cream here is seriously 100 out of 10. I got mine in a waffle cone, and that was probably the only slightly disappointing part. The cones are pretty small, and honestly, it wasn't my favorite waffle cone compared to some others I've had. But the ICE CREAM makes up for it and then some! There is pretty much always a line here, no matter what time of day you go, but they are incredibly efficient. They move people through quickly, so even when the line looks long, you aren't standing around forever. The inside is so cute and quaint, almost like stepping into an old-fashioned diner or soda fountain. It's bright, fun, clean, and has so much character. I'm still kicking myself that I've never actually stopped here for breakfast or lunch because I've heard their food is worth trying too. One of these days! We ordered from the ice cream side, where they have all of the cones and ice cream treats listed. I didn't see milkshakes and some of the other things you might expect at an old-fashioned ice cream shop on that side, although I'm pretty sure you can get more options if you sit down and order from the restaurant side. If you're in Ludington, you absolutely have to stop at House of Flavors. The ice cream is fantastic, the atmosphere is so much fun, and the history makes it even more special. We came back a year later for a reason, and we'll definitely be back again!

The place seemed busy but luckily there was no wait time. There was a lot of vegetarian options and mostly each combination was available as a salad, wrap or a sandwich. I ordered the cranberry chicken wrap . The wrap felt a little dry but the filling was quite good. I also tasted chicken fajita sandwich and it was awesome. This place has started as an ice-cream shop. They hold a lot of records including one in The Guinness Book of World Records and it shows in their elaborate ice-cream selection.we ordered vanilla with butterscotch and raspberry rendezvous and liked both. Prices are reasonable too. Definitely worth a visit when in town. PS : we walked by the restaurant's ice-cream shop side in the evening again and there was a queue extending to over a block :)

They weren't actually that mushy and the crispy bits had a nice crunch. Link sausage was dry, without much flavor--bacon would probably be a better choice. Coffee was decent, though server went MIA as I was waiting for a second refill. Overall a very clean space, with tables that can accommodate large groups as well as couples or singles. Hard to say much more about my meal here than "OK," so three stars.

I'm unsure if the food has changed at all but our experience was GREAT. The breakfast was about the best I've ever had while eating out. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, from the biscuits and gravy to the potatoes, nothing seemed like it came from a packet or freezer. The country fried steak was nicely breaded, the biscuits and gravy were great for it not being "homemade". The portions were huge while the prices were also great on the "Chicago" scale.

I noted it was our anniversary in the reservation, and clearly it did not make one lick of difference. Our server was harried, disinterested, and perfunctory. However, the food was delicious. They are still stickler about substitutions, so I just asked for the halibut without any risotto, and they brought me garlic mashed potatoes anyway, which they charge $7 for. The table next to us was denied the opportunity to swap their starch. Still a lot of menu items with risotto, which is a bummer. The halibut was perfectly cooked, although I was longing for more of the champagne cream sauce. The fried chicken was fabulous. We both liked the green beans, but vegetarians be warned they are cooked with bacon. Mash potatoes were meh. It is charming inside, although some tables are wedged a bit close together.

Loved the shrimp and grits, Caesar salad was good, but could have been improved with homemade croutons instead of out of a box. The couple we were with had the buttermilk chicken and she crab soup. Again, buttermilk chicken should have been served with a nice big biscuit, if trying to mimic southern style. A nice plate of bread and butter would have rounded out the meal beautifully, which sadly was not offered. Other than that, the service was wonderful, the ambience is very tasteful and enjoyable, and it was a solid place to enjoy a fine dining meal! A few tweaks & would've given it a five star review.
