    We were there for a good 10-15 minutes until our server came to us. It was the bartender and he was running around and making sure that everyone was ok and making drinks. I asked was he the server and bartender and he said yes. There were quite a few people in there and he was already working hard so I just gave him a tip and told him to keep working hard and left. We did not order anything. I recognized that he had a bar full of people along with 3 tables. He was amazing and his customer service was top notch.

    The service here was amazing; they were very attentive to our table and made sure that we were doing alright. The food tasted delicious and was prepared very professionally. I came here to celebrate my anniversary, and I will continue to do so because of this experience!

    Batter Up Bistro is one of my favorite spots in Lansing! The entire staff is always incredibly friendly, which I think comes from their wonderful owner. She clearly takes pride in what she does and genuinely loves hosting, creating a warm and welcoming culture. I celebrated my birthday here, and the staff went above and beyond by giving me a card and cake—it was such a thoughtful touch. The food is consistently delicious, with excellent gluten-free and vegan options. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for great food and an amazing atmosphere!

    We went to the bistro a couple of years ago for breakfast and dinner. Both meals were outstanding. We were back in Lansing two years later and again visited the bistro. The food is still delicious, and I would recommend Batter Up Bistro to anyone who enjoys delicious food prepared by an outstanding chef and owner, Cari
