Boulevard Lounge

awesome burger, in my top ten from Seattle to Midland, Michigan

This little bar is a midland staple, great bar food, good menu good service, bummer the pool table is gone. They have keno and karaōke, but the bully burger is great, always consistently good love it.

Best breakfast in town! After a long midnight shift, the Boulevard is the place to go! Staff has always been nice, not overly friendly, but nice. It’s a nice change from the chain places in town!

Burgers and fries in plastic baskets. Beer on tap. Don’t expect anything fancy– in fact it seems that the place never changes. There’s even a big photo of one of the Dow AC softball team from the 1950s that has probably been hanging since the players came to the Bully.

I don’t understand why people love it so much. My husband seems to think it’s good. Every time we go I order something different. Every time it’s just a grease ball on a plate disguised as a burger or sandwich. On the plus side, the beer is cheap.

the most unwelcoming place I have ever been to. As we are trying to find our sets servers are rushing past giving dirty looks like we were in there way. Our server was Barbie and was rude from the moment we sat down. I needed a few extra minutes with me menus in which she scoffed at me. Every time I would say something she did not seam to pay attention so when I repeated myself you snapped back that she had heard me the first time. The most impolite and abrupt server I have ever met. On the other hand the food was great. I had just wished the cook would have been our server.

They’re are always in a rush to help you especially in the bar area. Trying to help 3 people at once and cutting you off at time. Too much favoritism

Solid blue-​collar joint. Friendly staff, fast service, lots of food, beer prices aren’t bad. Come for happy hour and stay all night.

Gave it one final shot for lunch the other day. Still over cooked dried out Burgers. Sad, like I said in the previous post, I’ve been going there for 25 years. I doubt I will ever go back.

Actually a great atmosphere for a sports bar. I thought that the pop was a tad pricey, but I think that comes with almost any restaurant. I had the club sandwich and my wife had the steak sandwich. Both were fantastic, and we shared our sides of fries and deep fired mushrooms. Smoking is no longer allowed, which for me is great. I will be back for sure.

I’ve usually had just takeout here, but their Hamburgers and deep fried mushrooms are excellent.

When it’s a burger or patty melt, it’s the bully, food tasty & done right, priced right! A tad noisy, but that adds to the charm.

Service was terrible the last time I ate here. The waitress didn’t check on us much and switched one of the cups with another table’s when refilling. She also overcharged us for my meal, but after waiting so long for the check we didn’t even want to argue. Food was only ok, in the past it has been better. Toast was pretty good.

Good burger. A little overcooked but nice flavor. Service was spotty. Took way too long to get my check.

Was not as smokey as lead to believe. Awesome onion rings. Staff not too attentive/​nice. Just OK.

Smoky restaurant.
Food is nothing special.

Cheap drinks, yummy fries, awesome jukebox, and great fun on karaōke night! Servers are sweet and attentive.

A trip to Midland is not complete without a trip to the «bully». You come in sober. You leave slightly tipsy, smelling like cigarettes from head to toe and generally happy. The staff ensured that I always had a beer in hand. Thanks to the «bully» for hosting good times to the class of ’89.

Knowing this is a classic saloon/​bar, pool room, sports bar; and serves food-​This place is in the class of «superb». This ain’t gourmet, but if you like fish, burgers, and onion rings, this place will really impress you.
Well located and easy to find.
The waitresses are pros. Attentive, friendly, and really an asset.

It’s a bar but it’s clean, well-​ventilated, and the food is super!
I know my burgers and this place has the best in Midland County. I’ll admit, I have never tried anything else from their menu because they are «known» for burgers and fries.
I have been going there for about 40 years (honestly) and it is consistently the best. I have to drive about 25 miles so I don’t get there that often but when we want an excellent burger, the Boulevard is what comes to mind.
There are always «best of the best» awards in the local newspapers in many categories. The «Bully» Burgers (as they are commonly called) have always won for the best hamburgs.
Even in the Saginaw judging for «best of the best,» Midland’s Bully Burgers at the Boulevard Lounge have been as one of the top ones even though it’s not even in the county!
I can’t say anything more than to say that never, ever have I been disappointed.
It’s THE BEST burger in Midland County! And if you’re looking at the Tri-​County area, I’d say it’s one of the two best. (Farmers Home Tavern in Hemlock is as good.) I find I vote for the one I’ve had most recently.
