“A friend of mine went to school at Ferris and he recommended Schuberg’s Bar and their burgers. I was at Canadian Lakes so I made the trip into Big Rapids. Schuberg’s is a bar downtown. They have an huge list of burger options. I got the bacon cheddar burger and tots. It was all excellent. I will be back.”

“I’m so happy to have the options of vegetarian food that is not so spicy! The ramen noodle bowl is really good. Our server Ila was great with just the right amount of checking back on us. Please don’t close this location!!!”

“Fun and kitchy local bar/restaurant. Food was decent, view from the patio looked great. Got pretty noisy inside, but that's not always a bad thing if the energy is good. Drinks were generous, as we're the food portions.”

“Brings back memories of my childhood. Reasonable prices and food was good. Hot food, be careful with your chicken strips. Not complaining, just letting you know. Our waitress was so pleasant and kept an eye on us after bringing the food to the truck. I definitely will be back”

“Great food great service great prices!!”

“Great atmosphere, food and staff. Chefs kiss”

“BEST coffee shop I’ve ever found by far! This place is for the girlies for sure. The aesthetic, the vibes, the kind baristas, the COFFEE & BAGELS (gluten free option at that!!). I literally come here every week to spend a few hours to work and look forward to it week after week! Highly recommend the maple shaken espresso & cinnamon raisin bagel! + their prices are amazing.”

“LOVE The Backroom at Toppings. They always have the most creative and tasty monthly specials, plus the atmosphere is intimate and cozy.”

“It was very peaceful and enviting when I walked through the door. The staff was very polite and professional. They were very fast to I placed my order and 3 minutes later I had both drinks I ordered.”

“Price is fair. Lots of options. Plenty of room to choose where to sit. There is a salad bar, burgers, pizza, meatloaf some days or chicken, there is a few other sections that offer nachos or a burrito, a fountain drink machine. Being able to study and grab a quick bite without going far definitely helps in making it an easy choice for lunch or dinner.”

“Difficult but we’ll maintained”

“I was happy to find this place. Good food. The tenders are huge and nice white meat. I also love their biscuits and the sweet and sour sauce. I just wish they had breast on the bone available.”

“We went there and we ordered delicious food. We saved half of our meal to take home for dinnerr (times are hard out here for a pimp). We left and accidentally forgot our food. Even tho we were just a couple blocks away we called and told them we were coming back. They told us that the dish person may have already taken and cleared the table & may have already thrown it away. My boyfriend kinda joking kinda seriously that they could take it out of the trash if they threw it away lol. The person on the phone told us they did indeed actually throw it away. I was fully expecting to just be shit out of luck. But to my surprise they remade us our sandwich half and packed the container full of new chips. Shout out to our server Tiffany who was warm friendly and attentive to us. We were even waiting outside to give the kitchen enough time to make our sandwich before we went inside to bug them…Tiffany saw us and ran our food outside to us. 15/10 will definitely go again!!!”

“Foods great service is even better, and the prices are great as well , I always tip the staff alot couse they deserve it 😀 😄 👍”

“This Panera always has great service and has never messed up my order once. I’m so glad they are located in big Rapids and one of my favorite restaurants.”

“My daughter and I went in to get our order to go on 1/20/26 around 1:30. The service was great including kitchen help. I had the fish sandwich and Bobbi had the #1 on menu...”

“Love the food and service
Update 08/22/2026
The service was terrible and I had to wait for a part of my order, which was fine, until they forgot about me. When I walked inside to ask about it, she told me I would have to wait and I told her that's what she said when I ordered through the drive thru. Then a couple orders came up, she went to hand me a bag but quickly turned around and took something out of it. Now my other food is cold. Normally I don't complain but it was so nonchalantly handled like that's how customer service is now. Also I asked for 2 breasts in my combo meal and received a wing and a breast.”

“Sydney our server was awesome and thanks for the sugar/cinnamon and orange tequila shot suggestion. It was great!”
