J W Filmore's Family Restaurant

My family and I love coming here everytime we visit Petoskey. Staff are super friendly and food is delicious. We miss when they used to be open for dinner time but besides that, it's one of our favorite go-to spots to visit in Petoskey! The fried cheese platter is amazing. I almost always get the crossiant breakfast sandwich, but on our last trip I tried the breakfast skillet and it is my new favorite breakfast item. Best restaurant breakfast I've ever had

We came in a winter storm and I don't know if that was the issue but the food wasn't that great. I didn't expect a lot but the tater tots were overcooked and the bacon was almost jerky at the edges. The staff was super nice.

Friendly staff and great breakfast. The pancakes are so fluffy and flavorful. Loved the breakfast skillet but it is huge! Highly recommend getting a half portion unless you enjoy leftovers. The coffee is a little weak for my taste but usually how it is in a small town diner.

Very senior friendly, we had entertainment, the cook was in a rant, yelling & cussing, the food was great!

Stopped here for dinner on a brisk early May evening because of the reviews. This was touted as a ‘locals’ hot spot and the crowd sure seemed the part. The host was a kid and not very affable but we didn’t mind. Our waitress was a pro and got us our food in good time. Food was good — this place is not pretentious and offers reliable diner grub. Everyone was content with their meals: kids Mac n Cheese, a quarter pounder burger (with bacon), a French Dip and Spaghetti with meat sauce. The ‘Red Chili’ was very good - spicy! This is an affordable safe bet.
