“Great bar love it my first bar experience ever”

“Went to dinner 8/14/25 and had our typical nice meal with bill over $100 and was SHOCKED to see a .75 cent charge for the two 1" butter patties I had asked for!! The other 7 folks at our table thought this was a joke but, alas, afraid not. Which word comes to mind- cheap, chintzy, petty, ridiculous or all of them? Oh, as it was my birthday we figured most nice restaurants offer a complimentary dessert but not here. Silly me for expecting that when I had to pay for the butter.”

“What's not to love? Friendly welcoming staff and amazing food.”

“Ordered Take out while visiting Baptist Lake! This place did not disappoint! Pizza, Stromboli, and breadsticks were delicious. Worth the stop!”

“Ordered carryout from this place for the first time today, exceeded my expectations by far with how awesome the food was. Friendly staff, short wait, and really, really good food/atmosphere.”

“Blackberry Cobbler is life.”

“This is a great place to stop for a meal and maybe a drink. I tried the gnocchi with pesto cream sauce and found it to be pretty much fantastic. It’s on their summer menu and as such will rotate off soon, but it’s really good.

They are fairly busy, at least the day I was there (Thursday in summer), so lots of voice noise, but no problems.

Staff are all very friendly and aim to please. Food came out pretty fast and was fresh. I sat at a high top on the bar side and did not have to wait.

Give it a try with you go to Cedar Springs!”

“We met my daughter, son in law and grand daughter here this am and had an AMAZING breakfast! Their sausage links are TO DIE FOR!! Home made bread too! I HIGHLY recommend!!”

“LOVE THIS PLACE SO MUCH!!! We were on the way home from a road trip and we were starving, I looked up food near us and Sticks n Stones was just up the road! We couldn't believe that we could get bacon cheese burgers, eat ice cream by a pond, feed and pet goats, pick flowers, and grab some things from a gift shop, ALL IN ONE PLACE! Food was DELICIOUS!!! Everything was extremely clean!!! Goats are very sweet!!! Gift shop prices are reasonable too!!! if you have a chance to stop by, DO IT!!!!”

“Fantastic Olive burger! Dare I say best ever! Flame Broiled burger! Husband got Broasted chicken plate. Super good! 13 year old son got his own build your own burger. He said it was the best burger ever! He considers himself a burger condesur as many teenagers do. Best kept Cedar Springs Secret!”

“The pizza is always great here. I love a crispy brick oven pizza. So, this time I decided to try something different. I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs for dining in, and the grilled chicken sliders and a regular kids’ cheese pizza to go. The spaghetti was perhaps just a difference of preference for taste. To me the sauce was too sweet and thin/watery. There also was no shaved Parmesan or basil, which the menu says are part of the dish. So, pasta portion was just really lacking in any flavor. However, the meatballs have amazing flavor! I’d eat them every day. The grilled chicken sliders were extremely disappointing. They each had maybe a bite and a half of chicken in a small strip. As you can see from the picture, one really had less than a bite. The sauce that was supposed to be on the sandwiches was missing. Just disappointing overall. The service was great, the restaurant is clean and comfortable, drinks were nice, and the pizza did not disappoint as per usual. I’ll stick to the pizza, cheese bread and bruschetta moving forward…they’re always great!”

“Delicious! You will not leave here hungry.”

“Breakfast was so good and well made. 5 stars”

“My first jobs was at this lovely establishment. Not only does this shop have the best service it has the best owners who care so deeply about their employees and their community!! They provide the best flavor and ingredient options too. 100000/10 Cedar Springs staple!!”

“If you’re in Sparta and haven’t been to Koffee Haus yet — run, don’t walk. Not only is the coffee amazing (their matcha, iced coffee, and lattes are always on point), but the people there make the experience truly special. Sierra, who runs the shop, is an absolute gem. Every time I walk in, she remembers me, makes me feel heard, and always brings such a kind, calming energy. Whether I’m having the best day or the worst, I somehow leave Koffee Haus feeling lighter. Also, they have gluten-free options, which I really appreciate since my cousin has celiac — it’s such a thoughtful touch most places overlook. This place has truly become part of my routine and my safe space — great drinks, kind people, and a whole lot of heart. 💛”

“My family is very picky! Best pizza we have had in a very long time!!”

“My husband and I absolutely love this place. Very friendly staff and fantastic food the owner actually comes out and interacts with his customers making sure everything is what they expected. This is a must go to restaurant. We have been to other Tacos El Cunados but they do not match up to this one!”

“Great meal, excellent service!! 👍”

“Everything you’ve been craving, including great service, properly prepared, well portioned, nicely seasoned. I recommend 5 star and beyond ?”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First time at Tim Horton’s and we’re impressed! Doughnuts are fire, the steak panini and turkey club were both delicious, and the staff was super friendly. Can’t wait to come back!”

“Everything!!! Northern Trails Bar and Grill is the best restaurant in Newaygo County.💯💯💯”

“honestly the best pizza I ever had, they load you up with toppings time and cooked perfection literally in every bite. I feel like a pizza commercial but they are worth every penny. ??? went there yesterday and I'm deff going back there again today.”
