Never a bad time at the Applebees here in Plainwell. Service is timely and always nice, I feel like I never have any trouble here. It’s a comfortable place to eat and meet up with friends. Shout out to Sofie as our server tonight. I genuinely enjoy coming here to dine.

Impromptu early dinner with kids and it was great. Everything was nice and fresh and our server Ashley was amazing. 2 or $25 and $5 margs, doesn’t get much better than that!

I was surprised that my dinner request Chicken Alfredo with broccoli was absent of broccoli 🥦. Yep, out of broccoli. No substitute offered to enhance the meal. Disappointed in the lack of accomodation substitute for this dish.
However, price accommodations were made for a couple sitting next to us when there meal was overlooked in the kitchen. Reduced by 50%.

We had an extremely disappointing experience at Applebee’s. We ordered the 2-for-$25 along with an appetizer trio basket, and both our appetizers and our meals came out at basically the same time. The spinach dip and one of the appetizers were cold, like they had been sitting under the heat lamp far too long. When we mentioned this, the appetizers were comped — but after that, we never saw our server again.

Our server, who was also the bartender, took our drink order and food order but did not even bring our food to the table — the host dropped it off instead. My steak was ordered rare and came out medium well, which was extremely frustrating on top of everything else.

She never brought us side plates or silverware, and we had to ask two different servers just so we could eat. When we asked for to-go boxes, it was because we wouldn’t even eat the food ourselves anymore — it was for our pigs. She brought a box that was way too small, and once again we had to rely on another server to get us the right one. We also had to ask yet another server just to pay our bill and get checked out, because our actual server had completely vanished after comping the appetizers.

Honestly, the only reason service happened at all was because other servers stepped in. The two servers who actually made sure we had silverware and helped us throughout the meal got the tip... because they visited our table more times than our actual server ever did. The only time we saw her again was when another staff member had to go get her so we could cash out.

To make matters worse, our table area was disgusting. There was smashed food all over the floor underneath us, which made the entire experience feel dirty and unsanitary.

Between the cold food, incorrect steak temperature, nonexistent service, and filthy dining area, this was a horrible experience

The waitress messed up my drink. I asked for a cherry coke and they gave me a Shirley temple and never told me they didn't have coke and didnt give us silverware and there was other people next to us that didn't get silverware either and the manager was real shitty and unprofessional

We brought in a party of eight without warning, including three children. When I tell you that Ashley took the BEST care of us, I mean she was a knock-out awesome server! She was so quick and anticipated everything with a smile and cheerful enthusiasm. We also appreciate the manager checking in with us. Just everything was terrific… we really were so impressed and intend to be back again!
