    After a weekend of camping, nothing beats Sheri's breakfast. Camp cooking is great and all but, it pales in comparison to a stellar diner breakfast. The service was fast and friendly. My coffee was kept topped up and the food was absolutely delicious. Can't beat the prices either! Shout out to the staff working the holiday weekend. Thank you for being so awesome. Next time we're in Ionia, we'll be stopping by again.

    We went for breakfast (which I feel is their specialty. They close at 2pm). First, I will say my over-medium egg came out absolutely perfect. That almost never happens in a restaurant or at home. It's usually a little over or under cooked but not this time. Absolutely perfect. The bacon was also prepared perfectly. Crispy but not overcooked. The cinnamon roll pancake was massive!! I didn't try it, but it looked good. The presentation could have been better, but they were busy. The only negative thing was the toast. A breakfast place should have good toast. The "homemade" toast I got was hard, dehydrated bread. (Like a crouton.) Toast should be crisp on the outside but soft in the middle. It was thinly sliced, unlike most homemade bread and barely buttered. All in all, I would definitely go back. It was very, very affordable, it was comfortable, we had good service and the food was good.

    Sheri's is a great little diner. The food was hot and fresh, staff friendly and coffee is delicious! I had the 2 eggs with bacon. Hash browns and toast. I had a side "baby" pancake that you can see from the photos wasn't that small!

    This is a great local diner. They serve lunch and breakfast, but we went for the breakfast. The cinnamon swirl pancakes were awesome, and we also got the French toast bake. The flavor on the bake was strawberry and was also perfection. The locals will talk to you and recommend things and all the waitresses were attentive and personable. I will make the trip back from GR.
