Unique atmosphere, but difficult to eat in. Music was too loud. Wings were bland. Drinks were good.

This was our first time visiting. We are giving a 5/5 because there was honestly nothing to complain about. Our waiter was great, host was amazing and always looked available to help. We both ate all of our food. We both settled for handhelds, mine was GREAT! Not a fan of the fries, I would get the totes next time. I love the chairs and entire aesthetic. If your looking for something “different” affordable, with great drinks and food- this is a GREAT. west Michigan find

I absolutely love the atmosphere. It's welcoming and very relaxing. The food is great, and they have a fun drink menu. The theme is definitely on point. Make sure to try the nachos!

What else could you ask for in a bar restaurant? Amazing food, amazing servers, amazing owner. If you’re in Grand Rapids, this should be your local watering hole.

Keep up the good work, Commons staff!

This is the best bar in Grand Rapids.

If you want food with a taste, go here! Love the vibe inside and they also have a tranquil outdoor patio.

Vibes are immaculate and they’re LGBTQ+ affirming. Food was great, the crab rangoon dip and Tropical Vacay burger are definitely worth going back for. Cocktails were hit or miss. The raspberry french 75 was delicious and not too sweet, however the espresso martini was disappointing. it tasted like vodka with a whisper of espresso – the La Croix version of an espresso martini if you will. Still, a great dining experience and the service was wonderful too.

Good food, but NEVER come here on a busy night. Worst ratio of bathrooms to seating EVER. Two toilets in the whole place. You will wait a hour to use the bathroom on a busy evening. RIDICULOUS!

This place has excellent food. This was my first visit, and I will be back. Ordered the fish and chips, and it was one of the best I have ever had (the chips would have be better, if they were hand-cut). My wife ordered the hot chicken sandwich, and it was outstanding. The service could improve, if they had more staff and seating. The atmosphere was a fun 70s interior. We will be back!

Had great service! Music was just right and the food was great!

Great Bloody Mary, yummy caprese bruschetta, awesome music, and Courage the Cowardly Dog playing on the TV behind the bar. My kind of place 👌
