The Comeback Inn

OC Restaurant Quest: Comeback Inn in Highland

(Crystal A. Proxmire, Dec. 16, 2023)

Highland, MI – Comeback Inn is a restaurant and bar in Highland where people like to, well, come back in.  With plenty of regular guests and a great location in Downtown Highland, this spot lives up to it’s name.

For my visit I ordered a pizza and a salad to go.  The pizza was a classic pepperoni, with crispy-edged slices of meat and a moderate amount of mozzarella baked on a sufficiently tasty and beautifully bubbly crust.

I also enjoyed the Southwest Chicken Salad. This hearty salad came topped with fire-roasted corn and peppers, black beans, diced tomatoes, red onions, cheddar jack cheese, breaded fried chicken, and crispy tortilla chips. It’s served with a slightly tangy southwest dressing. The huge portion was more than enough for two servings.

Other “Comeback Favorites” include oven baked lasagna, balsamic grilled salmon, and smokey chipotle mac and cheese. There are a number of pizza choices, including the “meat meets meat” pizza, with pepperoni, ham, bacon, and Italian sausage. There’s also “the big Kahuna” made with ham, pineapple, and bacon.In addition to specialty pizzas, customers can build their own.

Comeback Inn also has burgers and sandwiches, including the Highland Station sandwich made with fresh pastrami, corned beef, Swiss cheese, homemade coleslaw, and thousand island dressing on a grilled onion roll.

Comeback Inn is located at 1451 South Milford Road in Downtown Highland. Dine in, or order online at https://www.thecomebackinn.com
