Reviews for Cranker's Restaurant and Brewery in Big Rapids, MI

Staff was excellent and allowed us to hang around for some football games while drinking and eating. Thanks for making out of... towners feel welcomed! Read more

Ordered breasted chicken dinner. Menu said ?You won?t get broasted chicken like this anywhere else.? They we?re right. It was... was overcooked, almost burnt, and dry. The mashed potatoes were out of a box and had not body. My husband?s salmon was dry. Weagreed the salads were good. Read more

Waited an hour at the table and still didn't even get our drinks which was just water. A family was sat behind us after about 30... minutes of us waiting and was served drinks immediately and started ordering food meanwhile we still didn't even have drinks. Weleft after waiting an hour for nothing. Will not be returning. If your workers are gonna talk about others not doing their jobsmaybe they should look at themselves because they don't do theirs either. If I could rate 0 I would. Read more

We waited a half hour for someone to come give us menus then and hour for food. No one checked on us or asked how the food was... (our burgers were cold) and lastly the waitress were just standing around in a corner and talking. Do not recommend. Read more

Service was quite slow for it not being busy. We had a large party, 8 adults and 8 kids. The server had trouble getting orders... correct, forgot to bring drinks to some of us, two of our groups food came out 10 minutes after the others were served. Thenthey couldn't get the bills correct, we ended up having to pay each other back in cash for things that should have been onsomeone else's check. Overall a poor experience for mediocre food and average beer. Read more

Always amazing food and service. I always get their western omelet with Texas toast for breakfast and my fiancé loves their... breakfast skillets. Their coney dogs are amazing and they brew excellent beer! It?s a smaller dining room, so be prepared for alittle wait on weekends; but it?s so worth the wait! Read more

Just popped in to taste their beer. Liked a few didn't like a few more. Place was kindof a dive bar. Not real clean and none of... the appetizers looked worth the risk. Read more

I got the PoBoy Mac'n'Cheese this was a great dish but it missed out on the wow factor that I have had in similar dishes at... other restaurants. That being said it was exactly what the menu said and I did enjoy it with a side of coleslaw that was alsogreat. Seperately, my friend ordered fried pickles and the batter around them wasn't cooked all the way which was fairlydisappointing. She sent them back and was compensated accordingly. We had the Blood Orange beer recommended by the server whichwas fantastic! Read more
