Bear Soup Deli

Bear Soup is Davison’s hotspot for a quick bite to eat. The sandwiches are one of the best things on the menu. The Big Smokey is great if you’re if you like smoked food and just a hint of spiciness, while the French dips can satisfy nearly any palette. But if you are into spicy, go with the Cajun burger for dinnertime, you won’t be disappointed. The ambiance is pretty rustic. A beautiful tiled floor, hunting memorabilia on the walls and wood fixtures make this restaurant a beauty.

Apollo Family Restaurant
715 S State Rd. Davison, MI 48423
(810) 653-3551
Apollo is Davison’s best place for breakfast food. Be sure to arrive early so you can take advantage of their Early Riser specials. Their Eggs Benedict dishes are some of the best choices on the menu, along with their pot roast skillet topped with an egg. But there’s much more than breakfast food here. Their hamburgers are always a safe bet, and the fish and chips is just as great. But honestly, the shakes are what makes this place so great. Order up one of their shake and burger combos and you’ll quickly see (well, taste rather) what makes this place so good.
White Panda Chinese
230 N State Rd. Davison, MI 48423
(810) 658-4986
White Panda is a great Chinese place with stellar customer service. The portions are huge, so make sure you come in with an empty stomach. For first timers, their Kong Pow Chicken is a crowd favorite. But if you like spicy, you can’t go wrong with their Szechuan, whether beef, chicken or pork. Even their egg rolls are something special. With just the right amount of grease, and a great crunch, they’re the best side on the menu, although their chicken fried rice is pretty good as well. The ambiance isn’t over the top, but thanks to their super fast waitstaff, coming here is always a treat.
MD's Sport Tavern and Grill
3040 N State Rd. Davison, MI 48423
(810) 653-6408
While this is a sports bar at heart, the food here is excellent. The chicken cordon bleu sandwich is out of this world, and their soups are really good as well. There’s always a good special or two going on with their food so be sure to see what’s on special when you stop in. The chicken wings are another great menu item. If you’re into spicy, try their new tropical habanero wings, while the applewood smoked wings are always a safe bet. They also have great speciality pizzas, making this place just as good for a meal as it is for a drink.
