Kirsten was so fun to work with and helped plan the menu, and the whole team was incredibly flexible throughout the process. The food was delicious, and the banquet room had such a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Jody, the owner, was friendly, helpful, and offered great guidance along the way. Our waitress, Alecia (sp), was wonderful—quick to bring anything we needed and even helped carry all the gifts out at the end.

We truly appreciated the service and care from everyone involved. It made the day feel special.”

“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!!!!”

“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!!”

“Waiter was very nice. I had the beef tips and noodles. It was phenomenal. My husband had the chicken quesadilla. And he really enjoyed that also. Definitely will be back.”

“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!”

“The owners are veterans, very friendly and have great customer service and makes you feel welcome . It's a local business in town which complements other service's in Cedar Springs...now you can ride or walk on the Pine Trail and pick up some healthy and nutritionous wheat bread on your way back... Now I have a reason to visit downtown Cedar Springs .”

“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!”

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

“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!”

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

“I have been coming here on and off for years. And lately a lot because of their affordable meal deals. Their weekday lunch crew is very nice and know what they are doing. I think there only has been 1 mistake made and they immediately fixed it. Staff is very nice.”

“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.”

“They were very busy so the wait time was technically slightly longer than the ETA when I placed the order. However, I have to say the quality of the pizza did not suffer as I've seen happen at other restaurants when things get busy - it was delicious!”

“Wow! I went back to the Big Boy in Cedar Springs after staying away for a long time, and guess what? It was way better this time. It felt like finding out Santa really DID bring you the good candy. The best part? They have a breakfast buffet. A real one! Those are super rare now, like spotting a reindeer in the wild. But Big Boy has it, and they keep it filled up with fresh food. The whole place looked cleaner too—nice floors, tidy tables, everything looking happy. On my first plate, I grabbed all the yummy classics: • Thick French toast with warm syrup (it tasted like a hug!) • A pancake with sweet cinnamon apples on top • Crispy bacon • Sausage links • Scrambled eggs The French toast was the star—golden and soft and perfect. The pancake was a little old, but the apples made it taste great anyway. The meats were tasty too, just not super hot. On my second plate, I went for the savory stuff: • Fried potatoes • More scrambled eggs • Polish sausage • More bacon and sausage • And then… SAUSAGE GRAVY ON TOP! (Yes, please!) The gravy was rich and peppery and made everything taste extra cozy. Some of the food was a little cool, though. And I saw a pan of cheesy hash browns that looked very burnt—like “left in the oven since last Christmas” burnt. The server was friendly and checked on me just enough—like a good elf who knows when you need more chocolate milk. All in all, this Big Boy is back to being a great place for a big, simple, happy breakfast. The buffet is fun, the place is cleaner, and the staff is kind. If they keep the food a little hotter and swap out old items faster, it’ll be even better. If you love breakfast buffets, this one is worth a visit. Smiling’s my favorite, and breakfast buffets might be my second favorite!”
