10 Best Bar & Grill near Byron Center

“We always have a fantastic time when we show up for supper. The beer is cold and no matter what food you order, it's always good. The entertainment is spot on, and no matter if know the people around you are friends before you go home.“

“Excellent experience at Alebird! Our bartender Bri was amazing. Very personable and friendly. Other staff was great too. Beer was very good and craft cocktails were great too. Highly recommend the Michigan Mule. They do also have a full bar and domestic beers for those who don’t enjoy craft beers“

“Happy place to drink a beer and enjoy a good meal.“

“A Hidden Gem That Delivers on Every Level
This place is a great little find—the kind that instantly makes you want to bring friends back with you. The atmosphere is lively yet relaxed, perfect for everyone, with both indoor and outdoor seating that sets the tone for a memorable visit.

I’ve eaten here several times now, and every single experience has been consistently amazing. The service alone is reason enough to come in—but if you want the best experience, ask for Jake. Jake is the kind of server every restaurant dreams of: attentive, personable, and clearly passionate about what he does.

Let’s talk drinks first. I ordered my signature espresso martini, and wow—Jake nailed it. I’ve had many martinis over the years, and this one easily ranks among the best. Perfectly balanced, smooth, and executed with confidence.

Now the food. If you’re questioning what to order, —get the burger. Cooked to absolute perfection at medium-rare, juicy, flavorful, and everything a burger should be. And then there are the chips… unreal. Crispy, addictive, and honestly worthy of their own fan club. I’d eat those chips 24/7 without hesitation.

Bottom line: incredible food, top-tier service, and a fun atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Sit in Jake’s section, order the espresso martini, get the burger—and thank me later. This place deserves the hype.“

“Extremely great value and an amazing place to play pool.

- Coma to Die For: Colossal! You cannot fit this thing in your mouth. I have ordered many large burgers, but this one did not squish down much to fit. It was dense. I had to eat it by biting above and below. That said, it held together until the end (barely).

The burger was a medium quality beef weighing one pound. I ordered it medium and it was a little closer to the medium well end and thus a little drier.

Toppings were well balanced except the onions were a little too much, the bacon and cheese was actually a little on the lighter side (mainly because the the massive amount of beef). I’m nit-picking, though. It was still all around magnificent.

And it is a great bang for your buck! For as much as you get for $14, almost no one is going home hungry! I dare say most will be taking a box of leftovers home.

I ordered mine with ketchup, mayo, onion, tomato, and lettuce.

- Fries: Great battered fries with a wonderful blend of seasoning and a small hint of spice. Great crispy outside with a fluffy inside. Just a little too salty, though.

- Water: I usually don’t say much (and this is totally minor), but the straw was not tall enough for the glass. I usually don’t use a straw anyway. Minor detail.

- Service: A helpful waitress that was very social and helpful. The meal was served rather quickly and I was checked on often. I was never waiting more than a minute for attention and help.

- Atmosphere: Cozy and friendly. You get the sense that people from every aspect of life come. You had families, close friend groups, serious pool sharks practicing, and the average Joe (like me) just having fun.

This place has been around a while and I can see why. The tables are kept up well and there are a ton of them. There is still plenty of room to socialize and enjoy the evening.

The biggest concern is parking. The front parking is very tight. Leaving is an issue as you have to go to the back parking lot to turn around, but there is plenty of parking and space in the very back where a dirt parking lot is.

I’ve been wanting to get here for a while and I was not disappointed. I wouldn’t mind coming back here for sure.

Visited on a Wednesday at 4:30 PM.

“Overall impressed. Ordered appetizers of wings and cheese sticks which were delicious. The steak was medium-rare, I ordered medium-well. It was still delicious, though, so no complaints.
Not a huge fan of steak fries but they’re good enough to satisfy“

“McDuff’s is our absolute go-to!! Whenever we see Kiley and Heidi behind the bar, we know it’s going to be a fun and lighthearted experience ❤️ Honestly, we’ve never met a grumpy bartender here but the dynamic duo are our favorites!! If you’re looking for a bar that caters to you and makes you feel taken care of? Go to McDuff’s 🥰“

“Walking down the promenade at the Bar, feeling hungry, she stopped by a small pizza restaurant. The place is cozy: two floors, a street terrace and even a small hotel attached to it. I chose an outdoor table - it's nice on the terrace: the sun doesn't bake, there's a slight breeze and a great view of the waterfront. Menu - European cuisine, prices average. The waiter was found friendly, the service was warm and unobtrusive. I ordered pepperoni pizza and beer. Cooked for about 20 minutes. The pizza is classic, Italian style: thin dough, good roast, rich taste. Just what you need after a walk by the sea. The place left a nice impression. No pathos, but with atmosphere - I had a great time here.“
