Paninis and soups are delicious. Always great service. Best muffins on the planet.

Cute little coffee shop. Great breakfast sandwiches to grab and go or sit and take a minute to eat.

Been a customer since they opened, always supporting local business when we visit from Texas, usually 1-2 times/yr. We have family locally. Never met the owner, but we waited 25 mins for our sandwiches before I asked if they'd be ready soon. Owner unapologetically told me they missed our ticket. It was closing time, after 2pm. During our 25 min wait, a small child was in and out of the kitchen consistently coughing loudly. I expressed concern to an employee who came out of the kitchen. Next, the owner angrily approached our table slapping $42 cash of the $55 we spent, saying this was for all but the 3 lemonades and to get out of her business (I guess she overlooked the tip I included). "Goodys has been here 20 years and we don't need you as a customer, " she yelled. We couldn't believe her behavior, got up and exited, but she came after us, telling us her child in the kitchen isn't sick and she was so angry she was spitting- she spit on my 11 yr old daughter. She came out of the cafe, yelling at us on the sidewalk. She told us to take our snobbery somewhere else. After we left, my son told me that when it was his turn to order, she said "hurry up" under her breath. My 3 kids and I were just shaking from disbelief. We had lost our appetites. She made us feel SO unwelcome. We did make it down River St to support some businesses, all of which made us feel welcome. We are a kind, respectful, thankful family, and I, especially, find it important to let the community know of this incident. Behavior like this will run off the visitors. My family has been around here since the 1950s, and I have come here regularly since 1977. Please keep it welcoming!

Was looking for a coffee shop with good reviews and this was the first place that popped up. With over 300 reviews I decided that this was had to be the place that I needed to go. I got my wife a hazelnut coffee and she said it was very very good! The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere is very nice inside! Definitely when we come back through this will be the coffee shop we will stop at again!

Great little spot for lunch. Asparagus and cheese panini is not only adorable to look at and tastes delightful. Great spot with outdoor seating.Coffee options plentiful with a good choice of sugar free syrups.

Goodys is my favorite place to go when I visit Manistee! I try something new every time I am here and I’m never disappointed, everything tastes delicious. The staff is wonderful and very attentive and most of the time go above and beyond to make sure their guests are happy. I cannot recommend this coffee shop enough!!

Delicious food! (Bacon, chicken wraps, chicken dumpling soup, and lattes) Gracious servers that go the extra ten miles! Left my purse outside at a table! Lana called my library in West Bend, W i to have them contact me! No phone # in my purse. Lana sent my purse to my home as I had already boarded a boat for home.

I love this place they have the best coffee around. I love to order the blended snickers with 2 shots of espresso in it and it's amazing!! I also love their sandwiches

The coffee was very, very good and the food was excellent. Prices are competitive with other coffee shops I've been to. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. It took us a while to get our food but we didn't feel it was unreasonable for the amount of people that were in there.

The composition of the dishes was very nice, but the execution was off. While the bread was good and the food was not greasy, the flavor was absent. The asparagus turkey melt was missing one of its components: the honey mustard. The tuna melt tasted like a can of tuna with nothing added. It was blah. We choked it down to fill a void.The dark roast coffee didn’t seem to be dark roast. I am glad I only bought the small.It’s in a beautiful building but the building deserves better.

Stopped in while passing through and enjoyed the quick lunch on their dog friendly patio. Tremendous au gratin potato soup paired with a couple tasty sandwiches. Very pleasant staff. Took a coffee to go for the river walk.

I was passing through Manistee on my way home from vacation, and decided to stop in the downtown area for a coffee. It was busy (well, duh, it was Memorial Day) but I got my drinks quickly and the staff was very pleasant. I will definitely return if I’m ever in the area again!

Shop had a very nice ambiance. Ordered 2 iced vanilla lattes with oatmilk. Did not care for the flavor at all. Had an "aftertaste" that made it a chore to drink. Lots of baked goods that looked wonderful. Would not order coffee here again. Would order any of the baked goods.

A great place to hang out, work, or simply grab a treat while you’re in town! The staff is super friendly and the coffee/baked goods are delicious!
