Cafes near Indian River

“Sometimes GEMS come in discreet packages and this is surely one of those places. I had the HOMEMADE spaghetti and meatballs! Very very good! And a ton of food with it too! Gotta make this a place to stop and eat!! The sisters there are so much fun and they are NOT Stingy with the amt of food they serve!“

“Excellent family breakfast cafe. We arrived with over 30 people and the staff was incredibly kind, hospitable, and welcoming to our entire crowd (which also had 15 kids under 10!) The portions and quality of food were phenomenal leaving everyone with a fantastic experience despite the chaotic environment our crowd generated. The staff were awesome and would recommend this place to anyone staying in the Boyne, IR, or Petoskey areas.“

“We were spending two nights in Topinabee with a trip to Mackinac Island planned. Before we headed for the island, we needed some breakfast and stopped at Cafe Noka. It was delightful. It's small, maybe 7-8 tables and a short counter (in length) with seating, but the folks working there are great and the food will leave you full for hours. For instance, we were mulling our orders and noticed the pancakes. There were size offerings: full stack (3), short stack (2), no stack (1). We were told NOT to order the FULL stack because it was too much. Our server was right. I had the short stack and it was plenty! Everyone enjoyed the food and we decided to stop again on our way back down state. Again, it was well worth the time!“
