Nice place we often forget about because it’s a little out of sight, out of mind. The cider options are aplenty, including some unique ones you can only get there. The one on nitro was surprisingly mellow and a new favorite of mine.
Only stopped in at the bar for a beer and a flight of ciders. Good service and good drinks.
Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. Joe couldn't have been more accommodating or friendly and 100% made this place one of the favorite stops on our weekend trip. The food was outstanding, but the Cider is the reason we stopped. We will most certainly add this to our list of favorite spots when we visit Grand Rapids. Cannot wait to go back again!

Vander Mill Grand Rapids is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of comfort, quality, and charm. From the moment visitors walk in, the warm, rustic ambiance creates a welcoming environment for a great dining experience. The restaurant is known for its excellent cider and friendly service. Special events like Valentine's Day dinner are celebrated with well-thought-out menus and pairings, making each visit memorable. Customers have praised the food, especially the salmon, butter noodles, and the burger, which is considered one of the best smash burgers in Grand Rapids. The burger patties are true smash burger style, juicy and caramelized, with melty cheese that is full of savory flavor. The burger includes toppings that are well balanced, served on a soft brioche bun, and comes with lots of battered, crispy fries. The Tuesday special for a burger and pint at $12 is a popular deal, offering more fries than most and a smooth sparkling cherry cider that complements the meal. The menu has been reduced, but customers suggest keeping popular items like the veggie wrap and offering meatless patty substitutes for burgers. The service is extremely kind, positive, and helpful, with food served fairly quickly. The atmosphere is polished and professional, featuring high and low tables, a bar with stools, a mezzanine overlooking the mill, and outdoor seating. The restaurant also offers a variety of events and has plenty of options for groups. Overall, Vander Mill is a cozy spot with outstanding food, a welcoming environment, and top-notch service, making it a highly recommended place for both casual dinners and special occasions. Visitors often plan to return to enjoy both the great ciders and the tasty food.
