Alright, I have wanted to write this piece for a long time, but I wanted to make sure I had a few good years of living in Howell before I picked my favorite places. I feel like most people focus on the immediate surrounding areas of Detroit and don’t like to look out in the burbs for a good place to eat. Howell is about an hour from the city of Detroit and in my opinion has some of the best food in Michigan. Finally, after being a resident of Howell for a few years, I am ready to give my top 8 restaurants in the area.
Again, these are all my opinion, if you have any other locations I should try, let me know! I love finding new local spots to eat and have a drink at. When I think of great local spots. I have a few thoughts, first and foremost, the food has to be great. Second the atmosphere has to reflect the great city we call home. I think you’ll find on this list a lot of variety, great atmosphere and above and beyond some great food.
As you go through this list, don’t forget to circle back and check out the photos I took while Howell was our WCSX City of the Week over the summer. I love to capture some of the history and love that is downtown Howell, from Farmer Market Sundays to the Melon Festival every summer. Howell is an amazing place and I am so happy I choose to move here and raise my family in this wonderful city.
