Walk Into Fleetwood Diner In Ann Arbor And You’ll Find A 1940s Counter Open Late
At 4 a.m. in downtown Ann Arbor, most doors are locked and most lights are off. One tiny spot on a corner never got the memo about closing time. It has a handful of tables, a short row of stools, and walls so covered in stickers that you could spend an entire meal reading them. College students, early risers, and road trippers all end up at the same counter sooner or later.

A sneak peek at the roller skating rink coming to Okemos. What we know
MERIDIAN TWP. — The decision to add an 8,000-square-foot roller skating rink at High Caliber Karting and Entertainment was due in part to nostalgia. Julissa Munsters, the company's president, grew up passing the time at a rink in Ionia and has loved it since. She sold the idea to the rest of the business's leadership by insisting Jordan Munsters, her husband and High Caliber's founder, spend Mother's Day visiting a handful of roller rinks with her. "We found out that in the amusement sector, roller skating is one of the largest attractions in the entire industry, and there's a huge growth rate that's been happening over the last few years," Jordan Munsters said. Roller skating's appeal crosses generational boundaries, he said. There aren't that many rinks in mid-Michigan. In the Lansing area there's just one, Edru Skate in Delhi Township. In early November, High Caliber will open its own, utilizing space that previously housed 15 lanes of throw ball.

Krazy Jim’s Blimpy Burger reopens in Ann Arbor
After closing earlier this year for renovations following a change of ownership, historic Krazy Jim’s Blimpy Burger is back for daily service. An Ann Arbor staple since 1953, the new owners are four locals who say they want to keep the charm of the place, and plan to continue serving the signature burgers, onion rings and other short-order favorites. What will be different is extended operating hours, a forthcoming mobile app for online ordering and Mothfire Brewing Co. Beer on tap. “Our goal is to protect everything that makes Blimpy Burger special while creating opportunities for it to thrive for another 70 years,” said owner Noah Kaplan in a press release. He took over the business from the Magner family after proprietor Richard Magner died in 2025. Kaplan now owns Blimpy with Ethan Kaplan, Pete Levin and Doug Botsford. The new owners say Blimpy's will still employ the "famously particular ordering process" — fast-paced and with a no-nonsense attitude from the staff — under their leadership. They'll also keep the bear mascot and have thoughtfully restored hand-drawn artwork created by Magner that they will display to honor his memory and his vision for the brand.
