Restaurants in Bowling Green

“I hadn't been to Sam Bs in quite a while. Decided to meet cousins from out of town there. From the moment I walked in the door, Anne Marie was there! So very helpful with our gluten free needs and suggestions, attentive but just the right amount. The food was excellent! I would definitely go back and definitely recommend it!”

“The staff was as excellent as the food.”

“We love the ninja! The food is delicious and service is great. They make accommodations for people with food allergies! The sushi is fantastic and the hibachi grill food is an enormous amount of food . Always have enough food for another meal at home!”

“First time in, at the suggestion of a friend. Food was really good and the price for the potions was more than fair. Service was good and they have half price wine on Thursday!! We will return when we visit BGSU again.”

“Nice beer selection, has pool, and hit up the attic on a nice summer, spring or fall night. Bar tenders know the beer selection pretty well. Many nice memories of this place! Can be very crowded sometimes, but that's typical with the night life in this area!4.5/5”

“Kreischer Late Night (possibly changing its name soon) has improved it's offerings and value immensely over the course of this year. It started as overpriced and took nearly an hour to get your food, and now there is more options available, like pizza, pasta, burgers, salads, and more. It is also a lot cheaper, taking meal swipes for those on campus. It's still a bit dated, but overall quite enjoyable for campus dining now”

“Probably one of the best cups of coffee I have had. I just got an iced oat milk latte and it was delicious. Will 100% be back”

“Stopped in on my way to MI office! They are really nice and help make recommendations if you get lost looking at the menu, like indecisive moi! The portions are substantial - just 1 shawarma filled me up without any sides - and the grilled chicken was bursting with flavor. I look forward to stopping in again sometime and trying something else.”

“The best Gobi 65 ANYWHERE”

“Absolutely fantastic place. A must if you're in the area.”

“Absolutely the best Waffle House I've been to in a minute. The ladies working on 5/3 at night are a hoot! Carolynn is amazing and love that she chatted with us! I hope y'all have a wonderful rest of the year and never stop having your amazing attitudes ?. Haven't been to a Waffle House like this since I lived in Texas ???!”

“10/10 for always making the best food 🥹🫶🏻”

“Had lunch at Call of the Canyon today. The special happened to be mac and cheese, bogo 1/2 off. Excellent choice - I'd recommend that you visit on Mondays. 😋”

“They have a great staff, great food, and wonderful atmosphere. 5 stars in my book!!!”

“My favorite is the Chicken Cabernet salad. Went there this week on Saturday. Unfortunately the salad was not as good as it usually is. Not sure what was missing. For the price of the salad it should always be perfect.”

“Just a great casual Hip place to hang out!”

“El Zarape provided the chips, salsa, guac, and queso for my daughter’s wedding. It was ALL delicious and enjoyed by all. 😋🥑🤤 We’ve received several compliments since the event. Highly recommend!!!!”

“My wife and I decided to eat here after going to a haunted house. We sat down and looked over the menu and chose the baked potato pizza and garlic fingers. I like trying unusual pizza flavors and was not disappointed! I went to the counter to order and the cashier apologized for not taking our order at our table, they were just coming down from a large group. I told her not to worry, we weren't from BG and it was our first time at the restaurant and didn't know what to expect. They brought out the garlic fingers first, about 10 min after putting our order in, and they were fantastic! Their crust is light and fluffy and the crunch was perfect! We would definitely drive an hour to eat here again.”

“My wife and I have been coming here for years. I went to school with the previous owner So Shaheen . What a great family. The new owners and the same family came in and carried the torch for the family. Same GREAT FOOD and GREAT SERVICE. That beef and lamb melts in your mouth. ?? Will always stop when we pass through. Great job”

“wonderful family, so nice and delicious food!! ty so much”

“We found this coffee shop while on the NW Coffee Trail. We have visited 12 coffee shops so far and this is the best coffee we’ve had so far! Highly recommend Novel Blends in Bowling Green, Ohio. 5 stars!!!!”

“Today we had egg salad, pulled pork, and shredded chicken sandwiches along with onion rings, sweet potato fries, and French fries from lunch. DELICIOUS!!! I also got a Fudge Brownie Mountain. Excellent!! We will definitely make this a stop when we come to BG!!”

“Highly recommend. He is super nice and his food is delicious. Portions are enough for two meals for myself, about 1.5 for my husband. I get the chicken and rice with cream sauce, he loves the lamb and rice”

“Great outdoor space, wonderful concept allowing customers to bring outside foods and great owners.”

“This is my favorite ice cream place! 99% of the time I go, I'm able to try a different flavor that sounds good to me. They have SO many favors and it's always so good! And it's not rock hard icecream, which is nice. Sometimes when you get hard scoop it's not very creamy or soft. Erics is the best.”

“nice music and clean tables”

“this was my first time getting pizza here and it was an excellent first impression. Kitchen staff was helpful and friendly, the pizza is delicious, and the draught root beer is excellent. they can it there at the bar!
i will definitely be a returning customer!”

“Great atmosphere. Greater people.”

“The best!!! Zach, the brewer here respects the science and creates only the finest of concoctions utilizing just the right blends and creativity to slap you in the face with flavors and hops! Love this spot! BG, you are very fortunate to have Juniper!”

“The food is delicious and the service is excellent! Highly recommend, especially for breakfast!! The pancakes are to die for!!!! Anything we have ordered has been great.”

“Thank you to Dairy Queen for the donation of Dilly Bars for Ohio American Legion Auxiliary Buckeye Girls State Celebration Friday night. We truly thank you for your support Gwen Schroeder Zulch Buckeye Girls State Director”

“Have been wanting to try the Bowling Green Ohio store for a while now as I am by there every Wednesday. Today I did and I love it! Chicken pesto flatbread and a sunrise Sunset smoothie! Large portion, small price definitely recommend when in the Bowling Green area”

“Que todo está muy rico Buen sazón Atención agradable Variedad de platillos mexicanos”

“I am from foreign country, sorry for bad english. I have flown out from Albania for the 27th time now so I can get a delicious flatbread meatball sub with extra balls. I got my order from a worker named big fart. Bug fat is an extremely handsome man and it taks all my power to not leap over the glass and smooch him on the lips. The worker named jamie is alright too, I suppose. Jamie told me to go in the back to get my order but when I did he stole my kidneys and took my wallet. Jamie took the coins out of my wallet, looked at them, and kept on saying “My precious” in a gremlin-like voice. All in all, my experience at subway was great! 10/10 would recommend!

Dietary restrictions: my kidneys are gone”

“Drank here for the first time since I graduated BG in the 80s. Still the same place, same furnishings...so many memories.Only thing that changed was the prices...if they could just bring back those $2 pitchers...lol”

“Got the Detroit dog & waffle fries, everyone’s always really nice behind the counter, always meet new friends at this place also every time! 💕”

“Had the twisted piggy Mac today which is half Mac and cheese and half cheesy potatoes with pulled pork and bbq sauce. Portion was huge and flavor was amazing!!! Everything I have had from Sworden’s has been phenomenal and the owners are great as well. Hopefully BG will continue to see them in town so we can all get our BBQ fix.”

“If you’re anywhere near Bowling Green, you’ve gotta stop by Mr. Spots. This place absolutely delivers when it comes to cheesesteaks — easily one of the best I’ve had outside of Philly. The meat’s juicy, the cheese is perfectly melted, and the roll is legit (they ship them in from Philly, which says a lot).

The fries were hot and crispy, just how they should be, and they’ve got a solid beer selection on tap to wash it all down. Chill spot, no frills — just good food done right. I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in town.”

“Such yummy healthy food!!! Doesn't upset your stomach like a lot of food does. kid approved too 😊 Cute restaurant and owners are pretty great too!!!”

“Trigga Meals has the best food around BG. I graduated in 2020 and when i’m in the area I’ll always come back for his food. He is a genuine soul who just wants to give some good food to some good people! Please go and enjoy his awesome food. Highly highly recommend! 😊”

“Best long island tea and cheesecake ❤️”

“Fun atmosphere and great bar tender”

“Delicious, far superior to chipotle which has only been disappointing me lately. Tori, Amanda and Bomani were AWESOME and Tori got me signed up for the rewards program too! Wish I had known about it earlier, would have been much farther in! Wish I could be getting that sweet $2 queso and chips deal.”

“Atmosphere was kind of strange at first but once they served us that hot plate of meat you’d thought you’d died and gone to heaven. My mouths watering just thinkin about it. We definitely gotta go back for seconds ;)

Vegetarian options: There may have been a carrot

Kid-friendliness: No

Wheelchair accessibility: I can walk just fine but they insisted on wheeling me around”

“great food with great drinks”

“Campus Quarters is the perfect bar for those who want to hang out and have a good time but don’t want to deal with the craziness of clubs. My husband and I enjoyed Campus Quarters so much in college and after that we had our group of friends meet up there after our wedding and reception; it was the perfect, relaxed atmosphere after a long, exhausting day. With arcade basketball, corn hole, darts, pool, sports on the tvs, and now the outside area with beer pong, it was the perfect place to end our special day! Campus Quarters is by far the best hang out spot in Bowling Green, Ohio.”

“Absolutely the best Chinese food any where. Owners very friendly. Have been eating here for years. Highly recommended”

“My favorite food.”

“The best staff in BG? Totally possible. A great, unassuming place to get your drink on. Judge a bar, by one simple truth, does the owner drink there? You'll always find Nate or Wally here! Nate and Wallys abides.”

Review: Papa John's

The visit was a mixed bag, but overall, the pizza and the experience held up!

🔎 The Situation:
A dear friend from afar surprised me with a pizza as a thoughtful gesture during a tough time. However, I couldn’t make it to the store within the allotted pickup window. I completely understand that this policy ensures only fresh, delicious food for customers, though I do hope the unused pie was donated or eaten instead of wasted.

💡 The In-Store Experience:
When I arrived, the proprietor—who I believe owns the shop—was curt and seemed unaware of my order. Thankfully, the manager I had spoken to earlier stepped in to clarify and saved the day. She quickly informed me my fresh pizza was about to go in the oven. Big points to the manager for professionalism and attention to detail!

🍕 The Product:
Papa John's remains a standout in the pizza world. The dough, with its perfect balance of fluffiness and chew, and the subtly sweet tomato sauce never fail to hit the spot. And let’s be real—any competitor that doesn’t include garlic butter and a pepperoncini in the box is just playing catch-up.

🏡 Delivery Thoughts:
Though Papa John’s doesn’t deliver to my area, which is far from rural, this lack of service keeps it a special treat. Still, corporate, you’re leaving money on the table—there’s a white-collar hub in Jackson waiting for those delivery zones to expand!

👍 Verdict:
The food and the female manager’s professionalism won me over. No notes other than this: keep being consistent and delicious. I’ll gladly patronize again, even if I have to pick up in person.

“We stopped here on a whim to kill some time. The bartender was absolutely amazing. She was so friendly and gave great suggestions. I had a lemon drop martini it was delicious. We had some appetizer dip and it was also great. I definitely recommend this place and will be back!!!”

“There was a little boy with glasses that was so cute? I ate in just to see his cute little face! I would marry him if I could! Sometimes I hate being 16 and not being allowed my own choices! Sometimes I hate the law!

Vegetarian options: I eat here often just to see the little boy with glasses in the back

“My husband and I recently visited Alehouse Grill and we had a great time 😊! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, the service was friendly, and you can't beat the great prices!:)”

“It's one of the few bars that have two bars on the same floor to serve. That said, it's still crazy during peak hours and it can be a straight up madhouse during the big party weekends. Still always had a great time and any complain is a great, fun time.”

“The food was really good but was quite disappointed that our server was not wearing a mask. So it makes me wonder who cooked my my food. Won'tbe going back.”

“Just an In & Out Pleasant Atmosphere kind of Spot Ariel an Employee there was Very Kind And HELPFUL”

“My first time at everyday people restaurant,Everyone was amazing,super friendly and the new owners are hands on working along side their employees. I highly recommend.”

“Good food at a fair price and the place is clean and a place you actually want to eat in. It is a nice throw back to how fast food used to be. Great value and experience.”

“I am obsessed with these breadsticks, so i always order them. Last night after a busy day I changed it up, and ordered spaghetti. This was quite honestly the best spaghetti that I have ever had. So good!”

“First time coming in with my daughter, the staff is super friendly and helpful l, the shakes are delicious and healthy ?. Love it.. wish they have one in Port Clinton !”

“Walked in, ordered a small deluxe (about $12), got it within 10 min. Delicious tasting pizza! Only downside is you'll probably want to keep going back for more. They don't really have much seating area to dine-in.”

“I enjoyed stopping in for a coffee one day while in town. It was such a good experience that I stopped in again the following day, when I had to be back in town, for another coffee and a few donuts. What a great couple of days. Thank you!”

“Updated space. Decent food. It's pricey for what you get. Ordering via kiosk is limiting. Can't request toasted bagel or butter as an add. All it all decent but has limitations.”

“The Old Town Buffett hosted a gathering for my family after my father's passing. This was one of his favorite restaurants. They could easily fit our group size. The food was fresh and delicious! The staff was compassionate, friendly, and efficient. We dine here often for the wonderful food and service. Thank you Old Town Buffett for accommodating us. I would definitely recommend dining here!”
