“Best pizza! Worst Salads! The salads are made up mostly of the ribs of lettuce. I'm guessing they use the good part of the lettuce for their grinders and such, and use the scrap ribs for salad. I've tried their salads numerous times thinking each time that I just happen to get a bad one the last time, but it never gets better. I'll order pizza, but no more salads.”

“The people/crew here are always incredibly sweet, even if the owner isn’t as customer-service-oriented! 😸♥ My crew at my food service job used to get Starbucks every Sunday and order 2-to-9 drinks every time with no complaints from staff. They always got them correct (or at least with very few mistakes, the most that would be missing would be someone’s extra caramel crunch on top)!! I have genuinely never had a bad experience with one of the employees. They all smile when I come in and even if it’s busy I always hear, “have a good day!” and reply. I am inherently an anxious person, but they’ve never made me feel unwelcome or unwanted. One time when they were closing early to have someone come in for maintenance, they were still incredibly patient with my friend and I who were catching up after a long time apart. What finally made me write this review was today was that one of the kind employees remembered me from back in April when I said I was getting an espresso machine for my birthday! There is always a wholesome interaction when I go, but I didn’t expect it to be above and beyond!! I will be editing this to add names to shout-out specific employees once I learn them, but for now: shout-out Gloria! Everyone here is fabulous!!! Thank you always!”

Hot 'n Now Plots Summer Comeback with Two New Michigan Locations
Remember 39-cent burgers? Hot 'n Now does, and the nearly-defunct fast-food chain is betting nostalgia and ultra-low prices will fuel its revival. The drive-thru burger chain, which once had over 150 locations nationwide before shrinking to just one, announced plans for two new Michigan restaurants - a summer opening in Wayland and a fall debut in Alpena.
