WE were traveling through the area thinking about getting a burger and a dog. WE remembered reading about this place doing research on the north western part of Indiana and decided to stop in for dinner. It is a well done restaurant. Atmosphere is nice and clean. It has that 50's feel to it with era posters and memorabilia on the walls.The original Schoop's restaurant was established in the region in 1948. Since that time it has spread to almost 20 different locations. It had garnered renown early on in its existence. As for how that early success translates to today we will summarize here. With the expansion of the different sites in the region it certainly can be assumed it has a nice following. For us we found the restaurant to be a bit pricey and nothing just "wowed" us.We ordered the Schoop's Hamburger and the Schoop's Mickey (in essence the cheeseburger). The flat hamburger is made in house and the edges are cooked to a thin crisp greasy point. We liked not loved the burgers. We also ordered their Chicago style hotdog. It was a very good all meat hot dog with a great bite to it. We added to that a side order of onion rings which were just okay-nothing special. What was enjoyable was the strawberry shake but again at $3.99 for 16 oz. and you have to wonder about the value of items received.Service as well was scattered is how we would describe it. Gone for long periods of time and inattentive. It was a very young lady so perhaps it was inexperience but felt it was a bit lacking at times.Our experience here was a pretty average experience. Nothing to rave about for sure. Add to it the lack of perceived value for the food offerings, quantity and quality and we feel it is a 3 star place. It might be interesting to visit the place Schoop's started back in 1948, but we are unlikely repeat visitors to their Michigan City restaurant.

We werenât sure what kind of food we would receive when we saw the outside of this restaurant. But we were pleasantly surprised. Terrific service, attentive wait staff, great cooks and delicious food. As someone who has food allergies I am unable to eat for breakfast at least in my town because no one is willing to cook with out better.Well not here. I had an egg, peppers, potato & bacon scramble all cooked in olive oil. It was so delicious. And super satisfying as I havenât had anything like this out in awhile.Leslie our waitress was so sweet and helpful we loved sitting in her section. I would go here for breakfast everyday if I lived closer.Thanks for being such an overall terrific establishment!

I stopped here on the way to Michigan from Chicago. I was hungry for a burger and they delivered! Out door seating, sit in your car or eat inside. The wait staff was friendly. Had a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomatoes, onion and mayo. Of course I had to have the fries! Yummy Friday treat. Will be a fun place to go in the summer and eat outside. Check it out!
