    Saginaw's local overhyped joke. Went out here to have their "famous" burgers. It was massively disappointing. The bar and "restaurant" is a dive. It's a dump. The burger seemed to be an afterthought to the people working there. It was nothing special. I don't really understand who started the hype, because the people at the bar really seemed to be unpretentious. Some joker, probably from out of town, came here to get a quick bite to eat and declared this place to be some mecca for burgers. Um, no, it's not, visit Chicago sometime and expand your horizons.

    This is the best burger ever. I have tried many (since burgers are what I really love), but none are as good as Farmers Home Tavern. Love 'em. (My only complaint was that I left my billfold there. I called about it the next day but they claimed they hadn't seen it. We knew I'd left it there so a few days later my husband went back and one of the staff said, "oh, yes, it's been in the office." I was disappointed that no one had bothered to look. My phone number was in it as well as all my i.d. and several credit cards. Seems that they should be a way of handling lost items so they'd have given me a correct answer when I called. I worried unnecessarily. But on the good side, everything was in it.) For a place to get a good burger, there's no place that equals them.

    Good burgers for sure. If you are looking for fancy beer or a large menu, this isn't it, but damn if they don't have one tasty burger. Juicy and cooked in the open behind the bar. Looking at the place you don't imagine it will be that great, but it really is. Yum :)

    As one approaches this place, it appear to be just another dive bar. Upon entering, it is a dive bar with it Christmas decorations still up. The lights turned the old bar into a festive dining room. The wait staff was friendly, professional and very efficient. The place is know for it burgers, so I tried the cheeseburger. It had to be the best burger I have eaten in years. My impression is this is NOT just beef thrown on the grill. The meat is prepared differently as it had a distinct beefy, tender, and moist flavor....definitely not a greasy burger. Generally, the food appears to be prepared by a chef and is of gourmet quality. Yet the food is presented in the style of a dive bar. The service is slow as it takes time to prepare quality food. That just give one more time for another beer. Had Sam Adam's Cherry beer on tap. Nice touch with two cherries tossed in for garnish and added flavor.

    Place is a classic step back in time. If you don't appreciate cool old cars, Led Zeppelin, and toys made with metal that have sharp edges you may not understand why this place is so cool. Great burgers, friendly service, and time warp to the past.

    Absolutely love this place! Great food all around, service can be a little slow since there is one small grill and a deep fryer but it's definitely worth the wait! Catch up on some sports action or play a few rounds of Keno while you wait! Servers are very friendly and I feel that everything is moderately priced.

    My in laws recommended this place as I was craving a burger. This is the place to go if you are craving a burger! It is a small bar with some booths and tables and plenty of tvs to watch whatever sport function is going on. They bring you placemats that also serve as the menu. I ordered the regular cheeseburger and it comes with these tiny pieces of onion, which I think make the burger! They serve it just wrapped up in some paper too. I chose the shoe string fries and they were nice and hot. Full bar too. A great stop for lunch and I will definitely have to come back on my way through!

    Have lived in hemlock most of my life, always loved this place. However the last 3 times I've been there food never came out as ordered, waited till food was cold to get silverware. Was never asked if wanted another drink. Went through whole meal with a empty glass. Service was absolutely horrible. Called for 4 days, left messages for manager, never one working, never a call back. Won't be back I'll drive to Saginaw or Merrill, where can get decent service. So much for the home town bar.

    The Great Lakes/Bay Supper Club visited Farmer's Home for their June meeting. Almost every single one of us got a burger. They were big a juicy and really delicious. They definitely live up to the Best of the Best awards they've gotten over the years. Our server was patient and quick. She was the only one on and we were never thirsty and we never wondered where our food was after we put in our orders. I was honestly surprised because I'd been warned that the service was sloooooow. The atmosphere is perfect for burgers and beers after a long day at work despite the sign forbidding profanity (sarcasm, I'm sure). I'd definitely recommend Farmer's Home Tavern and I'll definitely be back.

    We like taking random Sunday drives, so one recent Sunday we set off for parts unknown. My partner's charge to me was to find the best burger in whatever part of the state we wound up in, so as we entered the farm country between Saginaw and Alma I did some research and found multiple recommendations for the burgers at Farmers Home. I also learned some history of the place; that back at the turn of the century, when farmers from the Saginaw Bay area drove their cattle to the stockyards in St. Louis, near Alma, Hemlock was a popular way station, and Farmers Home provided sleeping rooms as well as libations to the tired and thirsty herdsmen. That made us want to check the place out. So we did. First the bad news: If you're looking for craft beer and liquor, this is not the bar for you; when I asked what beers were on tap, the reply was "Bud and Bud Lite." Period. When I asked if they had any Michigan beers, the waitress just chuckled. So Labatt's it was. My partner, who was a bit more persistent, eventually scored a Palm Belgian ale (which we later learned had been paid for by a Miller rep sitting at the bar. Score! Thank you, kind sir.) Good news: That was really the only bad news. We totally enjoyed ourselves here. The burgers did not disappoint; huge and juicy, handmade with fresh meat from a local market, with a weekly specialty option (this week it was a teriyaki/pineapple burger), but otherwise offered with basic no-frills topping options. We also enjoyed the homemade potato chips, which you can get with a bacon/cheez topping option or poutine style with gravy. I had a cup of potato-bacon soup; pretty good. Other menu options are pretty basic; a few sandwich and salad choices, a couple of basket options. We showed up at the end of the Sunday lunch crowd so the place was rather quiet, but there was a large family table finishing their meal and a couple of other dining parties in addition to the perceived frequent fliers at the bar. Despite our first impression that Farmers Home was primarily a drankin' bar, it really is an old-skool family tavern where the whole family can go for a meal and where child booster seats and grizzled regulars share space. I am giving Farmers Home four stars for the burgers, the historicity and and the Palm ale; if they expand their beer offerings to even Frankenmuth Brewing Company products I can be persuaded to add another star.

    Yes, Justin, it is a dive. It's a typical small town bar. The service is friendly, but slow. We are small town folk, not stuck up city people! Talk about pretentious! Look in the mirror buddy. The burgers are REALLY GOOD! The meat is fresh as it gets. A burger from Farmer's is worth the wait.

    Classic small town bar. Lives up to it's name. The burgers, a typical bar burger, are the best within 100 miles! Worth the 20 minute trip from Saginaw or Midland.

    After hearing and reading so much about the famous Farmers Home Tavern burger, I had to stop in and try it for myself while passing through Hemlock. The burger was okay. Not great, but certainly not bad. While taste was merely average, the portion was exceptional. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but if you're seeking value, there are few burgers that compare. Weighing in at over 1/2lb, bring a healthy appetite or opt for the junior. So much beef!
