Jamison is a killer cook. Give this guy a raise. Seriously. To $18 at the very least. He’s a GREAT cook. Overqualified to be working at a bar if you’d ask me.
Alivia is the sweetest thing ever, awesome customer service. If I actually lived in town, I’d be here often. Stopping in from Denver!

Extremely awful,waited over 10 minutes for a new 4 day old waitress to come to our table after going to the bar to ask for menus. The waitress tried to take our drink order and she never heard of peach schnapps and orange juice. I said fuzzy navel.she ask me how to spell navel! Lol Then we ordered, we waited an hour then asked her what about our food? She said, oh you ordered food? We said just cancel the food order that she never put in and we'll just pay for our drinks. We paid and she did offer us a free drink which we took. There was only 2 other people in the restaurant but two other waitresses taking care if a retirement party on the patio. Will never go there to eat again!!

🍗 The Harmful Rooster – Belding, MI
If mediocrity had a mascot, it might just be The Harmful Rooster. My recent visit delivered exactly what you’d expect from a restaurant that appears to be modeled after a fast food joint trying to convince you it’s a sit-down experience—without committing to either. The decor? Stubbornly forgettable. The service? Neither notably rude nor remarkably kind. They hit the elusive sweet spot of maximum average.
The menu is built on the classics: fried chicken, coleslaw, cornbread. Each item tasted as though it had been rigorously calibrated to evoke precisely zero emotional response. The chicken was technically hot, the cornbread technically present, and the soda technically carbonated. If there were a contest for achieving the bare minimum with unwavering consistency, this place would sweep every category.
And yet, it wasn’t the food that defined the evening. After dinner, I took my date—a veteran—for a walk down the Flat River Trail, a pleasant enough path that ends in a bitter twist: the Veteran Memorial Bridge, defaced with graffiti. The sight was devastating, especially for her. She broke down in tears, overwhelmed by the desecration of what should be a solemn tribute. She then vomited—violently—returning her entire Harmful Rooster meal to the earth.
It’s worth noting that the trail leads directly from the restaurant to this graffiti-covered memorial. Whether by coincidence or irony, the route felt like a metaphor: from bland consumption to emotional ruin, all within a few blocks.
In summary: if you’re looking for a tastefully uneventful meal followed by a profoundly heartbreaking encounter with civic neglect, The Harmful Rooster has you covered.

Stopped by after shooting some hoops with the boys, sure glad I did. Great place to eat, have a cold one, or simply talk story. Alyvia was a terrific waitress, and went above and beyond what was asked of her to make sure we were accommodated.
Two thumbs up!
