The Hauntings of Haymarket Hollow

I've been back for breakfast two more times - again - both times the breakfast was excellent! They were out of their delicious Corned Beef hash, however. I've learned to ask first about the Corned Beef Hash if I am planning on ordering it - if they run out - they substitute some other hash - and I am not a fan of it.  (Sep 14, 2009 | post #2012)

Agreed - I've eaten breakfast here now 6-7 times and never had a bad breakfast or bad experience. I did eat dinner here one evening about a month ago and ordered the ribs - they were tough. I spoke to the Manager about it - they have stopped sourcing the ribs from a particular place. I will definitely go back.  (Sep 9, 2009 | post #2004)

REVIEW: Cupcake Heaven

Liz, when you have such an experience - please, politely tell the owner. I do this where ever I go - it's the only way that folks know that things need improvement.  (Aug 5, 2009 | post #39)

REVIEW: Cupcake Heaven

Try talking to the owner. I told the owner of Cupcake Heaven about this thread yesterday. When I went in this morning for my espresso - she related she had no such conversation about this. So talking to as you state - "the woman" was not the owner. She would love to talk with you all and have an opportunity to change your mind.  (Jul 31, 2009 | post #35)

The Haunted Fort?

Back around 1970-1971 - our family went on vacation up around around Mackinaw City - and our Dad took us to an attraction called "The Haunted Fort." Dad is not sure now exactly where it was located - I am guessing either Emmet County or Cheboygan County - but to this day I can find no reference to this attraction anywhere on the internet. In any case, the Haunted Fort is a favorite childhood memory of mine - does anyone local know what happened to the Haunted Fort?  (Jul 30, 2009 | post #1)

REVIEW: Cupcake Heaven

I have a novel idea for those of you that had a problem with the cupcakes - talk to the owner and relate your experience. Try constructive feedback - you might be surprised at the result. Your other option is to continue to whine online.  (Jul 30, 2009 | post #31)

Catfish Lewie's is indeed closed. I had a wholly different experience than you. I ate there four times and was NEVER served potato chips. I was served fries each time with fried catfish, fried fish, fried oysters, and fried scallops.  (Jul 12, 2009 | post #1847)
