Restaurants near Sanford

“Chicken Verde and Chicken Chimichanga are were delicious!”

“My girlfriend and I were out Antique shopping and decided to try this place. Got the Philly cheese steak pizza. It was excellent! Service was prompt, and the guys were friendly and talkative. Will definitely be back to try other menu items.”

“Absolutely love The Whippy Dip! This place is a gem! The food is always fresh and delicious — whether you’re grabbing a quick burger, fries, or one of their specials, it never disappoints. The ice cream is, of course, the star of the show — creamy, rich, and served with a smile every time. What really sets The Whippy Dip apart, though, is the customer service. The staff is friendly, fast, and always makes you feel welcome. It’s clear they care about their customers and take pride in what they do. Whether you’re stopping by for a summer treat or a bite to eat, The Whippy Dip delivers every single time. Highly recommend!”

“Unique atmosphere and the best nachos around!”

“Great little spot to grab a (free!!) coffee and hang out. Super nice staff, and there are tons of tables and couches and a fireplace. They have a donation box, but there was no pressure to leave anything. It would be nice if they had some bistro sets outside. The back area is super cute and would be a perfect spot to enjoy some coffee on a nice day! Having some tables out front would help advertise it as a coffee spot better—I didn't know it was there until a friend mentioned it. I'm surprised it doesn't get more business since they offer FREE COFFEE!! No strings attached!! ☕”

“Super friendly and amazing food!”

“I cannot recommend Hannah enough! Her style, flavors, quality and customer experience is top tier. She is the most kind and bubbly fun personality to work with. Her attention to detail and creativity far exceeded my expectations of anything I imagined. We love you Hannah!!”

“Like all other quick food options these days, prices keep clumbing and portions seem to get smaller. At least subway is a bit healthier and you can order to your specific taste.”

“taste good best pizza 🍕 in town and all of mid Michigan.”

“I tried there Bear Butter coffee! It was awesome!!!! So very wonderful”

“Every time I'm here Jim and Haley always know how to satisfy and keep things clean around the place, I'm very proud in how they both take care of the place!”

“I waited a bit for my food at the drive-thru. I was OK with it and after the conversation with the manager, I understood the wait. It was a great interaction, this guy knows how to manage a store and the customers.”

“Our first visit was tonight. We had the Sexy Bacon roll and the Papa Crema roll, as well as the firecracker shrimp appetizer. The dishes were works of art, with amazing combinations of flavors and textures. Our drinks were just iced water with lemon, but even the lemon was extra fragrant with big, generous slices. So delicious. And our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Will be back for sure.”

“Fantastic meal, and great service! Love that spice level is customizable. Highly recommend the naan bread, so well made and for sure the best in town. Great prices, can’t wait to go back for the lunch buffet!”

“I spent the first 27 years of my life in places where I could get authentic pho, and I got it often. I have been absolutely craving pho lately, and Emily Mai's Pho absolutely hits the spot. She knows exactly what she is doing. I had Pho #3, which is a combo beef pho. So so so delicious!”

“About the only thing I ever order is the cold brew with heavy whipping cream, and they prepare it exactly as I like. They are also the only coffee shop in town that has keto friendly food on the menu.”

“Coming from the east coast I’ve had many opportunities to experience wonderful restaurants and service but this place was exceptional. It is in the customer service and how the staff threads in kindness throughout their actions. It’s subtle and should be watched for. It’s the little things that expand good service to great service and this is a very impressive group. Beyond that the food and wine were better than expected.”

“We have partnered with Pizza Baker several times to bring LIVE comedy to Midland and they are amazing folks! Our customers rave about the pizza. They go out of their way to tell us about how yummy those pies are that they get when laughing at the comedy shows at Three Bridges Distillery and Taproom. Pizza Baker is friendly, fast and delicious! What more could you ask for? 😋”

“I believe I’ve reached food nirvana after having lunch here! Insanely delicious and great atmosphere and service! Can’t wait to go back!!!😋”

“So these guys are the new Grove eh... While I do still miss Grove, I am not disappointed in Live Oak. We tried something new today and enjoyed it. Price was a little high I thought, but very nice quality, so you definitely get what you pay for here. Will be an occasional treat place for sure. Also how the hecc did you make a gluten free brownie that didn't taste terrible?! I demand to know your secrets!!”

“Coconut Cream Pie was more than fantastic!! Full of fresh coconut through out with the best crust!”

“Stopped in last week great sandwiches and owners!!!!”

“Excellent selection of spices and cost was even better. I loved the different kinds of tea blends and the owner was amazing. Can't recommend enough!!!”

“Went in to fill the need for a blueberry muffin. Looked at the drink menu and told the barista I couldn’t decide between 3 of the drinks so I chose one. Paid for said drink and muffin. As I was sitting there waiting noticed the “specials” sign. Today was BOGO.. 🥴 I know it’s my fault for not noticing the sign, but would have been nice had she mentioned that it was a special for today if I was interested in trying another drink, I would have indulged a bit more. I’ll still be back but maybe just a sales tip 😁”

“Taylor is the greatest sever and the food was bomb!”

“I went there on a date with my boyfriend a year and a half ago and got a turkey burnt ends poboy and I still think about it. please bring it back. ps I love you bye”

“Good food at a reasonable price, Big portions for a value. Service could have been better but was not bad. I'd eat here again and recommend to anyone looking for a cozy place in Midland.”

“This was our first time going here, we thought the sushi was excellent, very fresh, well made and delicious. Good atmosphere as well. The only thing we didn’t like was our server, we felt rushed and unwelcome. I don’t think I saw her smile once the whole time we were there. The food made up for that so we will go back.”
