Chris was our waitress today for lunch. My wife had the fish and chips with a side of TEXAS TOAST Butter and toast both sides with garlic, (they do not have the hush puppies until lent next year)a side of their Cole slaw, fries and lots of lemon wedges. To drink she had a hit tea with honey and lemon, and I had a large glass of I house water no ice and a lemon. I ordered a slim Jim and fries and for dessert we decided to go to the local ice cream near by. Great service, friendly waitstaff and very attentive. All the staff works well and are synchronized which makes each visit a pleasant and fun one. Highly recommend this location. Many many friends of us drive 2hrs way just for this location for service quality and a taste of nostalgia and we know first hand why. read more

Tuckeys Big Boy - Salad Near Me - Tecumseh, Michigan

Tuckey's Big Boy! It's like stepping into a different world, where time seems to slow down & the only thing that matters is sharing a good meal with good company. It's a casual setting that feels like a slice of countryside in the heart of the small town of Tecumseh. The town comes together to celebrate our shared love of good food, good company, and good old-fashioned fun. The Tuckey's help foster this sense of togetherness. When you look around the restaurant and you see the walls practically tell stories on their own. They are covered in photographs and mementos that chronicle both the Tuckey's journey and the town's history. It's the kind of authentic decoration that money can't buy and designers can't replicate-layers of genuine history accumulated organically over time. Nostalgia adds emotional value to our life experiences and you will feel that the moment you walk in here. It's a hug! It's a Mood it's a vibe! It's the people here! We love and are grateful for all of the staff here, because they all work so well together and they always make us feel welcomed. It's that feel you get when you go see your relatives and everyone gathers and you can catch up with everyone because you just don't know who might you run into. We love Tuckey's Big Boy. read more

Tuckeys Big Boy - Raw! - Salad Near Me - Tecumseh, Michigan

One of the nice things about big boys when you can find them is for me they have consistency with their food is always good, the service is really nice and personable, and the diner itself it's pretty clean and well kept. You really have to check it out for yourself. read more

Burnt food sent back and got raw food in its place I have dined here for over 50 years this was the worst it has ever been. We were also over charged for the meal by $18.99 and an extra soup and salad and dinner bar total of 28.99 no drink refills and manager said oh I'm sorry. No money back no refund no help at all I will never go there again save yourself the time and money do not eat there. read more

Not sure what happened to this place but the food quality and preparation has really went down hill. Service is still good but at these prices I expect to be served something chewable. The biscuits are like bricks, eggs not to order, bacon was many hours old. read more

One of my FAVORITE Big Boys to go too. The food and service are always EXCELLENT!! My Aunt has been going there for years every Wednesday.

Stopped in to try out the weekend breakfast buffet. I tried the scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage links, bacon, and biscuits with gravy on my first trip. Enjoyed the biscuits and gravy the most. On my second trip went for the scrambled eggs with ham and cheese. Also more biscuits and gravy. These eggs were pretty good. The service was really great and the crew really friendly. There were several good looking foods on the buffet including waffles, French toast. I just think that $38 for 2 people was a bit much for breakfast plus tip. read more

I come here all the time, it's just a big boy nothing really to write about. I usually come at night, but decided to come about 3 on this fine Wednesday. Walked in and awkwardly stood at the front with no acknowledgment although two older ladies looked right at me. Then Alexis noticed me, she was obviously on a mission but still told me she'll be with me in a minute. Seems like the older ladies on weekday mornings stand around and do a whole lot of nothing while Alexis runs laps around them. It's quite simple, if someone walks into an establishment where you are an employee, you greet them. I didn't think women so old would need to be reminded that. Food is solid, like I said in the beginning it's big boy. Very cute inside, lots of Fireman Knick knacks about the whole place. read more

I love that there's still a Big Boy around. It's neat to come here and have a bit of nostalgia. They have a nice breakfast buffet and soup and salad bar. There's been times when our food takes a while to come out, but I think it's just their peak busy times. The slim Jim is a favorite! Love the firefighter decor, lots of cool things to look at! read more

Please be aware that the restaurant staff here does not wear a mask. This was as of two days ago. Food was great but it comes with a risk of COVID. Per CDC as of December 2, 2021: "High Transmission In Lenawee County, Michigan, community transmission is High Transmission. Everyone should wear a mask in public indoor settings."

Always good service, a great owner and staff. The food is better than any other Big Boy around.

Classic restaurant and a fave for get togethers. The food is always delicious if you want breakfast, dinner, or dessert. My favorites here are the club sandwich, belgian waffles or broccoli soup. read more

Love my breakfast after our dinner rush I'd say the service is amazing! All though I am just a wee bet biased because I work here ‍ I love that I see the same faces every week sometimes twice a day. Come see for yourself read more

Big Boys is one of the best places to get breakfast. I like their breakfast bar lately. I haven't been able to get my moneys worth I can't eat as much as when I was younger. read more

Great service and food. Worth the drive to Tecumseh to come to this big boy instead of adrians. The atmosphere is also great.

I am writing this with sadness. I have always liked this restaurant, especially now, with their new look. Their wait staff is helpful and friendly. However, the one meal that I visit, specifically for, is now being prepared horribly! Twice, recently, I have gone for their fish and chips. BOTH times the fish and the hush puppies have been badly OVER FRIED! The fish was a dark brown and very DRY! The huspuppies were also dark brown and so hard...there really wasn't a soft center. Neither of these items need to be fried for that long. They should be GOLDEN and light, moist a fluffy. Please teach the cooks to prepare them correctly. I am not the only customer that has noticed this. read more

"FRESH" is the word I would describe our Saturday brunch buffet at Big Boy Tecumseh. There was an enormous selection to choose from. Everything was well stocked, clean, and fresh. The service was impeccable. Party of 4 with multiple drinks, shake, all you can eat buffet, and one meal from the kitchen was a little over $77 dollars. In addition to a great meal, it was a pleasure to enjoy how the restaurant was nicely decorated. One can tell how the owners take much pride in their establishment. read more

We didn't have huge expectations for this place but it wound up being very good. Our waitress Mary was friendly and on top of it. The salad bar was clean and provided some decent healthy options. My sandwich was fresh tasting. I opted out of the fries and payed the upcharge for the salad bar. It is a respectable choice when you are Tecumseh ,but not something I would want too much. read more

Tuckeys Big Boy - out front - Salad Near Me - Tecumseh, Michigan

With all of the big boys closing in the state for the most part with only a few left and them changing their name to Dolly's. This is a holdover that is a great example a local Pride and oozes Hometown feeling. Aside from the now rare Big Boy statue out front that we all know and love but never see any more. The interior is not your typical big boy with barn wood panel walls and police and fire pedal cars above the buffet along with local and out-of-state patches. You can tell this place supports its First Responders with vintage fire memorabilia on the walls including a call box and Halligan. This place is spotless clean and very blunt about staying safe during covid-19 which is extremely respectable regardless of your political views. There is even a hand drawn chalk schedule firefighter in full turnout gear on the menu board when you first walk in listing local and neighborhood up and coming events supporting their community. If you don't come here just because you miss big boy you definitely should come here because this is an example of a true Small Town Restaurant who supports those who support them. Pick a weekend and make the drive read more

See all

Big Boy in Adrian and Tecumseh are the best ones I've ever been into. Food is good. Waitresses in both places were excellent and the place is clean. If you like chicken sandwiches. Get the crispy chicken sandwich made your way (not on menu but they have it) I get mine with lettuce and mayo on side and it is hands down the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Better then Outback or Chick Fil a ! read more

One of the cleanest big boys I've ever been in. No wobbly tables,the floors clean, everything's been updated. Good job for the owners. The food is spot on. I have not met a bad waitress yet. Definitely worth five stars. read more

My favorite thing about Big Boy are the pies. I especially love the strawberry pies. They are reasonably priced and I order them ahead of time to bring to get togethers. read more

Newly remodeled, this place always keeps the best staff and keeps the place clean. This isn't your normal Big Boy, it's a lot better.

This is a new place to me, been out driving in the country and got hungry, pulled in here to eat. The staff is very friendly and the food tasty as well. I would recommend coming here again if I'm ever out in the aria again. read more

Tuckeys Big Boy - Salad Near Me - Tecumseh, Michigan

Looked for dining in as we were visiting family. Always visit Big Boy on our trip from Chicago. Noticed upgrades and remodeling including restrooms since our last visit in November 2019! Staff friendly and food good. Plan to be a regular! read more

Their burgers are delicious but so far, their service has been hit or miss. The staff did not prepare our takeout order correctly, and then offered no compensation whatsoever for our wasted time or inconvenience. read more

Now, I grew up in Michigan. When I moved to New York City there was something missing in my life but I just couldn't put my finger on it. After stopping into Big Boy the other day I realized exactly what that was. This was an amazing experience. I miss Big Boy. The breakfast is the best. I am a little disappointed they didn't have my size "Made in Detroit" Big Boy shirt. Still happy to give 5 stars. read more

For me, Big Boy is all about comfort food. Whenever I'm visiting family in Tecumseh, I make it a point to have at least one meal here. During my last visit in April, I ordered my usual: spaghetti and garlic bread. I haven't lived in the area for more than 16 years but I always know what to expect. The same servers are there and the menu follows the same general formula. If you want good, simple diner cooking, this is it. read more

This is a great freindly place with a great breakfast bar, soup and salad bar. It pretty clean and well staffed. Great family place.

Came in for breakfast with my fiancé, I ordered the southern omelet, he ordered 2 eggs with hash browns, toast and ham they didn't have a meal for it like most places so the waitress made a meal up. We got our food about 30 mins after ordering, his ham was literally a piece of lunch meat cut in half and fried... So we asked for sausage patty's instead, it came out 15 mins later and tasted so horrible the only thing he ate on his plate were the eggs... At this point wait staff avoided us at all costs, we could barely get a refill on our coffee.. he asked her if she could take it off the bill and just charge for the eggs considering he didn't eat anything but the eggs not even the toast. She took 2 dollars off of the $8 meal so we basically paid 6 bucks for 2 eggs. Big boy has become complete trash we both came here a lot growing up and it was such a let down. I wouldn't waste your time or money read more

We had a problem with our order but Jamie took care of it! He was great. Very attentive and professional! Thank you for a great visit!

Big Boy is the place to go if you want a place to feel like you belong. The server's, cooks, everyone is friendly and actually care about their guests. My husband and I try to go to Big Boy frequently just because we know we'll be treated so well, and that the meal will always be just as good as the last time we were there. If you want a place to treat you good, this is the place to go. We love Big Boy and hope it's here to stay. read more

Good food provided with great service and exceptionally low prices while providing big portions, our server Mariah did a great job making sure we've gotten what we needed and was cheerful and friendly about it read more

Big Boy is now the destination for breakfast in Tecumseh. The food is full of flavor, the waitstaff is incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere is welcoming. read more

I don't frequent here often but of all the Big Boy's I've eaten at this one has the best food. Salad bar is quite nice. Breakfast bar is more than I'd expect for a BB. Better than Adrian, Brooklyn, and Flatrock BB's. Tecumseh's a quality little town. You can't go wrong as long as you realize it's not for foodies accustomed to Ann Arbor or Traverse City. read more

Same menu from the 60s but the food is as good as it was than. Interior is very old and somewhat dirty. Needs a remodel big time.

Out of all the Big Boys, this one is my favorite that is closest to home. I go for dinner or breakfast, usually. The salad bar is usually good but I prefer my meal made fresh. The waitresses are quick and polite. Food is consistently cooked well and to my liking. read more
