Very good meal. I had hamburger-fresh-not frozen patty, good fries, and a bowl of Beef vegetable soup. I put the beef first because there was a lot of beef in it. My husband had a bowl of chili and a Steak and cheese sandwich, and only ate half the sandwich. It was very good and very filling. We brought the leftovers home-my daughter is enjoying it now. Waitress was friendly. Our first time here-she helped pick out "best sellers" on the menu. We will definitely go back with the kids.

People who review Bringer’s poorly are simply putting it in a category in which it does not belong. Bringer’s is a decades old “greasy spoon diner”, not to be confused with commercialized restaurants like that of the Applebee’s or the Bennigan’s for that matter. Bringer’s provides excellent home cooked meals in large portions at prices that can’t be beat. My family and I have been going to Bringer’s regularly for over 20 years. The neighborhood where the Bringer Inn resides is not the greatest by any means, nor are the dining areas very spectacular, although these things are easily overlooked, considering what Bringer’s “is” and what it is “not”. The Bringer brothers are bound to retire at some point; sad as there are no restaurants comparable to this one.

Excellent food. If you have not tried the shrimp sauce(yum yum sauce)you are really missing out. The cooks are very entertaining. If you are in a hurry you can usually get quicker seating at the privet tables. One of my favorite resturants for su ...

I have been dining at Bringer Inn on a regular basis for 15 years. I know the family well and they are great people. I'm a cook myself but I love sitting at the counter and watching Mike or Jim cook, I pick up some of there habits and it improves my experience. This place has the best food in Saginaw, it's better than Tony's and cheaper on your budget as well. It's in a very good location right off I-675 just west of downtown Saginaw.

First off, to the person that wrote about the dog in the cage. Go back to school and learn how to spell, use punctuation, grammar! For gods sake, did you even read what you wrote?

I don't believe a dog should be in a restaurant environment either. But the puppy was in a cage in her seat. If it was a Service Dog, would you still be writing (if that's what you called it), would you still have written it and poorly so?

I have been going to this restaurant for over 10 years and have never had a problem. Yes, once in a while you'll get a waitress on a bad day, but for the most part, we have never had a problem. We've gone in with a group (10 or more) of people or just as a small family and always the same...great food. If and I mean if there was ever an error, they don't hesitate to fix it and of course, there was no charge for the item in the end.

I've known people that worked there, and know people that work there now. They are strict, as it should be in the food service, or in any service oriented business. If you want your customers to come back...you do what you have to to keep them doing so.

All in all...Great Restaurant (diner style), Great Prices, Great Service...no complaints!

I was very upset, My family and I was at the location on Sunday around 12pm and was so surprise to see that you allow DOGS in the resturant and no it was not a blind service dog, A old Lady brought her puppy in a cage set it right next to her in the booth and the waitress and staff allowed this and they thought it was so cute, I think its unsanitary and for people that have allergies but no they didnt seem to care about that just how cute the puppy was, well, I want to say we will not be back and I think this should be reported to the health department, as you dont know what the animal could have brought into the establishment and being allergic to animals my child has to suffer with sneezing and water eyes, Thanks bringer inn for caring, which I think it is wrong that you allow that in a food etablishment

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. Totally home town place with the best breakfast in Saginaw. I went to college out of state, and going to get my favorite at Bringer Inn essential to every trip home. Breakfast is the best, but also great lunch specials, steak sandwiches and pie. Staff have been there forever, and food is tasty, fast, and very cheap. Patronize local business!

This is your typical diner; good food, quick service. The waitresses ( no guys that I know of)are all pretty friendly; some a bit grumpy-maybe they have been doing this too long-this seems to be the type of service we have been getting recently anyway. I give it a good rating due to the food and popularity of this diner. Service could definitely be improved upon.

There are much better places to eat in Saginaw. This is the most smoke filled place I've ever eaten in. When they go smoke free, I may go back. Couldn't eat while breathing in all the smoke.

Simply wonderful. All of the negitive reviews must be from fired employees trying to make this resturant seem bad. The food is excellent, service is good, and the staff is friendly!

I wonder why this place is still open? Although the food was cheap, it lacked any quality. Burgers are dry, the salads seemed premade and old and the over all cleanliness if horrible.
