Chadd's Bistro

This is from prior to the move to the bigger location, but everyone was kind everything they could make from scratch they did. The bread the sauce is everything. I've never had something that I didn't care for. I can't wait to go back and see the new restaurant. They have a lifeline customer with me.

This place is huge! Located in a corner of a strip mall, Chadd's is a great place to eat, play board games or have a drink. I came for a late lunch on a Monday. They were open on a Monday and during "linner". Josie, our waitress, was incredibly attentive and kind. She noticed I needed water from the other end of the bar and brought me a new glass before I had the chance to ask. She gave us space to chat and eat yet never disappeared and was so informative on the menu and ingredients. I learned all their breads are dairy and egg free AND made in house. Sauces all homemade too. Four stars only because there are almost no vegan options. I ordered the peanut butter, banana, granola sandwich. It was delicious and good size. My guest ordered a chicken sandwich and the fries. They were very good and her sandwich was huge. I'd love to see a plant based option with grilled or marinated tofu or even something with hummus and their artichokes. Great spot though if you find yourself in the auburn and dequindre area and service was five stars!

I became familiar with Chadd's Bistro when it was included in Yelp's "top 100 places to eat in the U.S." list in 2022. It made that same list in 2017 and 2018, as well. Originally located in Rochester Hills, Chadd's is now in Shelby Township. The menu features over 3 dozen sandwiches, and there is a full bar. The bread and sauces are all made in-house, as well.My wife and I began our meal with poutine. Despite being a bit salty, it was one of the better poutines I've had locally. For our main course, we shared 3 sandwiches: the cheese steak supreme, the Italian sub, and the Monte Cristo. The cheese steak was flavorful, but could've used more cheese. The Monte Cristo was enjoyable. I found it to be more savory than sweet. The Italian was the best of the 3 sandwiches. I liked that the meats were sautéed, that the tomatoes were diced rather than sliced, and the addition of pickles. All in all, Chadd's has a quality sandwich for everyone on its menu.

Great place actually owned by Chadd! I had the Hardcore Joe...chicken breast with good spices. Their bread is so good! Everything there is freshly made. Some would say it's expensive...but it's all so fresh you ARE getting what you pay for! They could do fries better. They weren't really hot and completely unsalted Good atmosphere and friendly service.

Best time for a Saturday nigh! You need to come in for fantastic food.. but wait I loved having a dart game after dinner. Food is solid delicious as it was at the old location. Only a short block east of the prior spot. Pastrami just as good as the last time I had it, not too fatty and not dry, total taste party on the tongue and lips. Husband and I split it, indulged again in the best sweet potato fries in Michigan.. far as I know to date. Andddd...!! Whaaat!! What was I thinking taking soooo long to come back. Dumb! Everyone loved their sandwiches and friend loved the amazing French onion soup, she could tell it tasted homemade! Beers on tap & I got to try a NEW local hard cider that was very good. Fun to have a few choices for adult beverages. Games to play too!! Alana our waitress if I'm spelling her name correctly was just a delight. Downside folks is when you support your local chef and restaurant they don't have the big chain or corporate millions for some trendy ambiance. This isn't my requirement for eating good food but to some of you peeps that want some polished brass or an interior design that's going to be Instagram pics for the pages it's got work to be done. I personally prefer money spent to make me super delicious food and hire people that are rock stars but everyone has their preferences. I hope that you'd all pack the place at Chadd's every weekend because if you don't we will start losing our local restaurants and chefs. Your big name chains might send you a free dessert that got thawed out from the box last night and maybe they have a menu that's already known but I'm so worried for our local Michigan restaurants I truly want to start a movement that we support the local businesses with every dollar that we can. Come into Chadds maybe we can have a Yelp meet up?!

Somewhere we would def go back if in the area! Stumbled on this place on our way back from home bc I remembered they were in the yelp100 a year it 2 ago! Staff was really sweet and the fries were addicting!

We got fried artichokes, fries, housemade ketchup and bistro sauce, and Hardcore Joes.Such. Good. Food.If they ever offer a gluten free bread, I'll be doing backflips of joy

Saturday afternoon lunch. Not busy, 1 other table & a couple bar customers. Got a personal pizza, cheesesteak & monte cristo. The fries were the only thing I'd get again, everything else was sub par & $78 for 2 adults & 1 child Topper of the visit was seeing the cook come to the bar to get food DoorDashed from Arby's. Not exactly a glowing endorsement. First & last.

Ordered Turkey Supreme Sub. Disappointed after reading the reviews. Maybe a bad night? This sub includes dark meat, not a fan of dark meat and both light and dark meat were dry. A few pieces of lettuce was wilted and mushed into the two tablespoons of diced tomatoes, instead of sliced tomatoes (none of which was fresh) bacon was burnt and old, couldn't find the provolone, guacamole or mayo.Giving one star to post review.

I have loved Chadd's Bistro for many years, but this new location just keeps getting better and better! Lots of space to chill with your friends! Great service and epic handcrafted from scratch food!!! I personally crave the Skinny John with sweet fries and their signature cinnamon butter to dip the fries in. Now I can add an adult beverage and play games too. The game wall offers lots of new board games as well as the oldies but goodies during my last visit we got to watch a local artist craft a Cheshire Cat as part of a huge mural of our favorite childhood games. I heard Monday night is a big game night and I can't wait to join in!
