Best of Breakfast
We asked readers: Where is your favorite place to grab breakfast in the 517? What do you love on the menu?
The Soup Spoon Café on East Michigan Avenue in Lansing came up both in our online and in-person polls. The Soup Spoon has been open throughout the pandemic in whatever way possible, pivoting to offer takeout and even going as far as delivering to their customers’ vehicles during cold weather. The Black Forest omelet was mentioned among the Soup Spoon favs, as well as the Chowder Head and the Baja Scramble. Sounds delish!
Called “North Lansing’s Neighborhood Kitchen,” 517 Magazine reader Karen Ehman said Fidler’s on the Grand couldn’t go wrong with anything on its menu, but she especially loves the Louisiana French toast sticks with house-made tart raspberry sauce. Fidler’s is on Grand River Avenue in Lansing. A look at its Facebook page will show you the playful attitude of the business and how the owners have some fun with original dishes like breakfast tacos. We’re tempted by the Jamestown biscuits and gravy.
The cinnamon roll French toast and the biscuits and gravy were among the favs mentioned at Be My Guest Café in Fowlerville. Facebook reviews will tell you the egg over medium comes out perfectly and calls it a rarity at restaurants. Be My Guest fans say its worth the trip to check out the best all-day breakfast in the region, including breakfast sandwiches, burritos, omelets of all kinds and homemade hash.
