Restaurants near Athens

“Had supper there last night had to wait awhile cause the place was packed but overall the food was excellent and waiting for the food was worth it .. will be back again”

“First time here and we love this place! We came down to see how a community close to Athens, Michigan had fared through the tornado and had dinner at The Office. Great service, great food, cold beer, and very welcoming. Kudos on having a great business!”

“My wife and I seasonal camp down the road, found this little gem and we absolutely love this restaurant. A small town local business that makes you feel like you’re part of the family every minute that you’re there. The food is amazing and the service is top tier, during the off season we leave the city where there are plenty of other breakfast options and make the over 30 minute drive to grab a Saturday morning breakfast, Dawns is that worth it!”

“Nice road side restaurant on Route M66! Great hand dipped ice cream, baked goods, hamburgers, sandwiches and more. A large outside seating area with yard games for the kids to run and play. Indoor seating is also available.
The staff is friendly.”

“Very communicative and did a great job on our cake! Thanks again!”

“was given ice cream out the freezer that was already pretty much melted if I wanted a milkshake would have ordered one🙄”

“We have been twice and thought it was a wonderful way to spend a precious summer evening. Great food, service, and company, including the ducks. Highly recommend for anyone who loves to turn simply eating into a way of celebrating life.”

“Stopped into Mel's Diner today and what a Gem! I got a doube cheese burger and onion rings. You know when an onionring is on point? when you take a bite into it and you don't pull the onion out on the first bite. Every onionring was cooked perfect! Great burger too! Brenda (the owner) is the best around hands down! If you are in the Union City MI area you have to stop in and get some food! We will be back for sure!”

“Some donuts, ice cream and food. This place is a hidden gem of a place. It’s a small town ice cream shop that serves homemade donuts and hard ice cream. They also have a food menu that is very reasonably priced and tasty. I didn’t take photos of the food, but the coney dog, pulled pork sliders and French fries were delicious!!!The ice cream is always top notch and the flavor I got today, caramel apple and it was amazing. The waffle cones come plain, chocolate covered, chocolate sprinkled, or chocolate and peanuts. The plain was flavorful and thin so it was not so hard or thick to over power the ice cream.The people who work there are all very friendly and accommodating. You never feel that you’re unwelcome. Definitely a plus.The inside gives you a feel of an ice cream store in the past. It has some things inside that will remind you of some early childhood memories. The outside is done nicely with seats and tables under a covered area which allows you to mingle and eat your food.The bonus is they have all sorts of fall things for sale such as flowers and pumpkins. The also have some bean bag toss games for all to play while having a hay ride that the family can enjoy ever half hour I believe.Stop on by and enjoy a nice Sunday while enjoying some good food, ice cream and donuts. Oh, they also have pies for sale too and they were delicious last year.”

“I’ve always had a good experience there. It isn’t fast food. It’s a place to go where you can enjoy the salad bar before the entree. Usually 15-30 minutes until the main entree arrives. I worked there and unlike most restaurants it is a tight ship and clean. I enjoy dining there and have always had good service. Also the atmosphere is special with windows into nature. Dining and watching hummingbirds and even deer is special. The gardens and flowers are exquisite. A nice stroll to experience. It’s family owned and deserves support of people who enjoy fine dining.”

“Thank you Colyn Blair for the best Taco pizza I’ve had ever!!!!”

“Magic capital Grille is awesome they food is great and the people that work there are so sweet and kind. Going there is like being in your own home but you don't have to cook. Lol I give them more than 5 star's let do 10”

“I have ordered catering from this subway for going on year number 4 now always this time of the year for various school parties for my grandchildren starting with preschool and there all in elementary now. This is the first time I have done 3 classrooms at once and sorry to say without ample notice, and I must say they knocked it out of the park! Ms S. And Ms K were phenomenal and spot on with the needs of the different classrooms and I was blowened away on how they had each of them ready. All 3 classes were be on greatful and all the children were so excited! You have 2 very awesome employees there and I will be back for my 5th order hopefully before school ends this year!Thank you”

“My wife and I ordered broasted chicken wich was pretty good. We don't care for white meat so we asked if we could get dark meat and was told yes. When I got the bill I was charged an extra$4 for the dark meat. We were not told this when we ordered. Probably won't go back.”
