Egg was overcooked veggies were raw service was extremely bad as a single person who arrived after us was seen by his server 3x more than our party was. For grandrapids a very low tier bakery and even lower on the breakfast food scale.

Just ordered a cake from a great guy named Josh for my daughters 36th birthday. He was amazing! I can't wait for my daughter to get this birthday cake. I'm in Florida and he totally took care of me and was an amazing young young man. I have no idea how old he is but he is fantastic! Hey Josh, you're the best! 🩷🩷🩷
I really miss the Arnie's of the past. This is a tiny cafe with a large bakery. You can still order several of the classic Arnie's sandwiches. That, plus the bakery items still existing and available to buy will bring me back.

We stopped in for breakfast on a Friday around 10:15. We both ordered the breakfast scrambles. Both were very generous portions with fresh ingredients. Table service was prompt; the server was extremely friendly and helpful. Great meal.

Bought a loaf of Fresh and Natural White Bread at Meijers, good date and this bread is so dry and stiff you can't eat it.

Arnie's will ALWAYS be one of our favorite restaurants in Grand Rapids!!! We've been eating here since the original The Old Mill days in Rockford and have enjoyed all the locations over the years. Now under the newer name, Beer City Bread Co. we are so thankful they've kept the ol' favorite menu items we've loved since the last 40 years! Please don't remove the Scandinavian Shuffle or the delish Riviera Salad loaded with nuts and strawberries!!! We had the opportunity to meet Arnie this week and are very excited to try out the Old Mill in Rockford along the trail. To end this review...note that Amy is always our server and she is the best!!! All summer, I have been bringing different groups of friends and I see that they are now bringing friends too. It's the great good and Amy! She's always in a happy mood, accurate with our order and makes coming to the Leonard location fun!!! Great hire!!!

Extremely disappointed. Arnies used to be my favorite restaurant. I was so upset when they changed it to beer city bread company. Arnies was such a classic and this is coming from someone currently in her 20s. When they added a small restaurant to the bakery I was so excited. We came right when they opened and I got the same order I used to always get. The cheese soup used to be creamy and was a very light orange color served with saltine crackers and bacon bits and in Feb it was a bright unnatural orange with bread. No bacon bits or saltine crackers and the taste went way downhill. The fries are also no longer crinkle cut. We kind of forgot about the disappointment and came back today and the soup was 1000x worse. It was so liquidy and even more orange and looked like it had been sitting out separating for a long time. I wouldn’t even try it this time. Also, this time and last time, the 4 packs of cupcakes were half vanilla and half chocolate and we don’t like chocolate so we didn’t get one like we were planning. PLEASE bring back the real Arnies. So many people want it back it’s foolish not to.

Excellent food, kind staff, and very fast. My French dip was out fast and tasted amazing.
Thank you for very delicious perozhki, zhengal bread it was really yummy. The best perozhki I have ever tried in US, crispy, full stuffed and soooo good. Highly recommend 👍👍👍
I bought a loaf of cherry sourdough bread from my local grocery. You could see some cheddar baked onto the crust of the bread, but not a lot. There was zero cheddar baked into the bread. Not even one shred. We usually get cheddar bread from another bakery and it’s loaded with baked cheesy goodness so we were excited to try this bread from a closer source. Never again. They should remove the word cheddar from the label and take off the three shreds that they bake on top to show you some cheese. $4 for a small loaf of dry sour dough. Nope.
Got 2 retirement cakes! Very good and well done!
Excellent food and service plus a beautiful view
