Food was good service was good too. Didnt like the fact that my dad had free stamps (card full) for a didcounted meal and they wouldnt honor it. I understand if they werevnot giving out more stamps but seemed wrong when HE WENT THRU ALL THE WORK to be rejected. Wont go back

We wanted a good sit-down place for a non-fast-food meal. Drifters was close to our motel. (We had never been to Drifters before.) The menu for breakfast encompassed many options. When our food arrived it was hot and the servings were a decent size. Wait staff were efficient. The atmosphere was warm and environment clean. Prices comparable with other restaurants we have eaten at. Parking was ample. Drifters is on a main road and was easy to find. While we were at Drifters people streamed in and out at a steady pace and staff were able to clean and reset tables in a fast manner. We would definitely eat at Drifters again and recommend it for anyone who wants a sit-down meal rather than fast food. Way to go Drifters staff!

We stopped here for breakfast and it was good! The waitress was very nice and attentive. The portions are large.
Although we stopped for breakfast and it was morning, we still were able to order one of my kids spaghetti and the other french fries.

Extra friendly staff and kind service. They were busy but accommodated everyone quickly and with grace. We had dinner and breakfast here during our stay in UP. Both meals were delicious.
My son left his watch at the restaurant and the honest staff held onto it for us. Little things like that make a huge difference.
Will definitely come back for our next vacation!

Aug 2025: Excellent service! Very friendly and quick, came to check on us several times make sure that we had everything we needed.
We ordered the fish and chips dinner (didn't like the fries) and the turkey dinner (very large portiion). These came with soup salad or coleslaw.
Spend approximately $17 per meal and we left very full.
