The husband and I were taking a weekend vacation to the UP and being Gone to the Snow Dogs fans, we decided to take a drive to Alpena and check out the Take 5 deli. We were a little sad that GTTSD were out this weekend to do a meetup with press record, but we were still excited to try out the deli. It looks smaller in person, but it's very cozy when you enter. We both enjoyed the decor (I am a big Star Wars fan so I really loved it) and I loved that there was nice smelling lotion in the bathroom. As for the food, the husband ordered 2 take 5 hot dogs and I ordered a BLT Burger. He really liked the hot dogs, he said they hit the spot. As for my burger, it was well done, normally I go for medium well burgers just to avoid dried out meat. But I was very surprised that even though it was well done, the burger was still very moist. And I LOVE pretzel buns. We were very happy with our visit overall. The staff was awesome and we will definitely return the next time we are in that neck of the woods!

Food is very good. It's a pay at the counter restaurant without waitstaff. One complaint is if you pay with a credit card they ask if you want to put a tip on the card. Pretty rude putting you on the spot like that.
