Lucy’s was a great experience! We got the amazing Birria Tacos (our standards for Mexican food are very high, and these were excellent!), the Spicy Hash Skillet, and a delicious pancake on the side. Service was great as well!

Lucy’s was close to our Airbnb so we gave it a shot and it was amazing! The spicy hash was very good and the portions are super fair as well. I got a caramel latte and it might be the best one I’ve ever had! Our waitress Alice made the experience even better, high attention to detail and little things like writing the date on our to go boxes were much appreciated. The donuts were delicious too and great variety of pastries with “day old” options too for a discount. Would definitely return next time I’m in town!

Very Dissatisfied…So How I even ended up here I live in NORTH MUSKEGON and Me & my 4yr old son woke up early to head to GRAND RAPIDS to assist family in moving…on the way rather eating & driving in the car I looked up food places near me and this one happened to be six minutes away from where we were at so it made the most sense…
2nd: I always read reviews before I go somewhere and by reviews I read the “lowest” reviews to really see what Id might run into
3rd “FOOD”: Just my opinion however As I always go to STEAK N EGGER (EXCELLENT FOOD). and came here I definitely regret not stopping there BEFORE my drive to grand rapids the food here tasted so BLAND spongey eggs, they looked very “mcdonalds style” like (if that makes sense) my son took 1 bite of his eggs and never bit them again he enjoyed his pancakes though…
My food on the other hand oh boy the omelette again tasted bland with a slap of cheese on it rather it having some CHEDDAR cheese oozing on it nope just a slap of some meijer white cheese idk….3/5 omelete…
However MY PANCAKES were disgusting! Im a pancake guy I havent sent pancakes back sense BOB EVANS 4yrs ago! So trust me YUCK im not sure If they are Not cleaning the table that they cook the pancakes on but i tasted (Peppermints?, Light spices, Some other weird flavor) other than BUTTERMILK PANCAKES so i told my waitress those were nasty and to please take them back..she asked if i wanted new ones i declined as it kilt my appetite with how bad it was we then wrapped up quickly left no tip and left!
(I got only bills back no change lol whatever she kept some money all cool)
4th SERVICE: my waitress (forgot her name) definitely did not want to be there lol she had a disguised happy/annoyed face the whole time and every encounter was VERY AWKWARD as a human you can sense things…
5th ATMOSPHERE: Now see the atmosphere i give 6 out of 5 everyone seemed happy! Great people! Music was the PERFECT volume not to loud or to quiet & everyone was conversating having a good time!
Would I ever go back? NO despite the great atmosphere theres better options thank you for reading overall id give a 2/5

A fun buzzy brunch spot with fresh food options. Large indoor seating areas and an outdoor semi-covered space.
Expect a wait. Sign in to wait list and be ready early. Whole party must be present to be seated. We were texted 15 minutes earlier than the estimate.
Our server started strong with personality and recommendations, but after our drinks came, we waited forty minutes for our entrees and water refills. It would help if they assigned one server for the outside, instead of rotating tables, so all the servers were rushed when they made it to the patio.
Tasty food and fun seasonal cocktail that our server actually created for the menu. We lived the breakfast skillet with corned beef and the smash burger.
We got a Creamsickle Cookie to go, because it looked so light and fluffy and was such a unique flavor. It was even better than expected. Soft, flavorful, not sweet, but a perfect light treat. Highly recommend.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.4 stars

Overall the service and atmosphere was good and our server was very kind and welcoming! I personally wasn’t a big fan of the orange sauce on top of the omelette and I felt like there was too much onions. Overall it was pretty good. The yogurt bowl I probably wouldn’t get again. The pineapple chunks in mine were hard. It’s hard to rate the yogurt bowl because it’s so simple. Not my favorite though especially since the fruit quality wasn’t great would probably go with something else next time it was very underwhelming the pictures just made it look so good.

This was my second time going to Lucy’s. I thoroughly enjoyed it the first time I visited and knew I had to come back. I ordered the grits with andouille sausage and added the blacked shrimp. I am from the south so I know a thing or two about shrimp and grits. The grits were buttery, the sauce was perfectly seasoned and the shrimps were to die for. If you want something nice and warm to sooth your taste buds this winter weather, then I recommend getting that. My friend had the biscuit and gravy and she raved about it. We also tried a few items from their bakery and those were fantastic and the prices are very reasonable. 10/10 recommend Lucy’s. The restaurant is always busy but the food is worth the wait.

We reserved a space in Lucy’s Loft for breakfast as part of our company retreat, and it was absolutely fantastic. We all felt at home and very well-cared for by our server, Jason the manager and the entire staff. Everything we needed was supplied and when we asked for anything it was offered with a smile by a helpful Lucy’s team member. The food was simply delicious. I highly recommend this as a place to gather with friends or a team for your next event!

Very clearly, this is the best brunch place in West Michigan. Everything & everyone seems to really click here, producing exceptional fare and standout experiences. A rotation of playful & inventive specials and sweets punch up the solidly delicious menu mainstays, making each visit different and intriguing. Servers are thoughtful and conscientious, especially with dietary needs/preferences, while the kitchen staff is damn creative and great at cranking out amazing plates.
Whether you’re vegetarian or not, the vegan sausage will floor you and is a must-try. Thanks for being excellent, keep up the great work!

The food and service here was top-notch! I could definitely come here multiple times and always get something different. Whether you’re in the mood for breakfast or lunch, there’s plenty of options. I got the BLT this time, and it was fantastic! The bacon was cooked perfectly, the lettuce and tomatoes were super fresh, and the brioche bread was toasted just the way I like it. Our server was so friendly, and we had a fun time joking around with her. I highly recommend this place! Thank you!!!

Stopped by here with some friends, and it was definitely worth it! The place was bustling, but we got seated pretty quick, and they had a nice patio area as well. Service was quick and attentive, and the atmosphere was just right. I tried two things – the Creston Scramble and the Bread Pudding French Toast (Peach Cobbler), and my friends ordered the Lucy’s Smash Burger and French Toast. The food was great, and very filling! The Creston Scramble was very flavorful, and the meat and potatoes really complemented the flavors together. The Bread Pudding French Toast was very rich and thick, and the Peach slices were a nice pairing to the rest of the dish. I would definitely recommend this place for breakfast!
