The Northside Grill serves a hearty breakfast and lunch to diners from its Broadway Street location near the Broadway Bridge in Lower Town. It often has lines stretching down the block for weekend breakfasts. Jim Koli is the owner since 1993.
The Northside was runner up to the Fleetwood Diner in Current Magazine's 2006 Best of Washtenaw County for Best Diner.
Expect to spend $10-16 for breakfast, and about the same for lunch (before dessert, which is super recommended anyways).
Things to do while waiting:
- Check out the alley / window of plants
- Browse the bicycles at Sic Transit Cycles
- Bike up the Border to Border Trail past the Argo Cascades to the Argo Dam and back, but you'll probably be out of beeper range
