Looking for a relaxing late breakfast choice. 9am till 3pm. Fun shop filled with art from local artists, funny gifts, even sassy ones. Wonderful coffees, teas and coffee biscuits. The breakfast scromlets stay with you all day, sandwiches for lunch or an early dinner are great. No fried foods here just yummy fresh made.

We often go when we're just plain hungry and that's what you want, FOOD. Great home cooked food, knowledgeable staff, friendly owners. We always order off the daily special board. Love the French Pork Chops, Liver & Onions, Lemon Rice Soup, Saganaki, Rib-eye Steak. Full Bar available.

The closest brewery to the GSL. Pretty interiors, fun art of the Michigan musicians. They offer free bumper pool and shuffle board as well as board games at your table, just ask. Large variety of food. The fish dinner is one of my faves. I like it with the Caesar salad and a sweet potato. Outdoor seating is available. Of course there's a full bar but only their homemade brew.

It's a bit further than the other recommendations however, you may just find it well worth it. Unique and delicious dining. A smaller, Greek food menu. A big bar, 100 beers on tap. A small bowling alley, pro golf 3D and other games. Then there's a huge store with 100 beer and wine options, deli and lots of unique foods.
