“It's a great way to contribute to your community, great fun for a date night and to get away from the stress. Guy named Steve hosts music bingo, the waitresses provide food (wet burritos are amazing) and drinks. Bingo is free and a great way to get out of your comfort zone and interact with one another, joke and just have a good time. It's Wednesday's from 6-9pm“

Every single bartender: Caitria, Wes, Lena, Brad, Brett, Makenna & Derek the manager are so sweet. My favorite part of going (besides drinks) is talking to all these guys. They're such good ppl. Definitely our favorite place to go. Oh yeah and the food from all 5 restaurants are great! If I could go everyday I would. Lol.“

“First time visiting and had a blast!!“

“I saw a good review from a friend on FB. I have been their twice since and taken other friends. Their reviews were good. My last visit the owners mother, who cooks with her husband, came out and socialized with us asking how the food was. I gave her a good review and offered a suggestion that she really liked. I’m going back with some girlfriends for lunch today. I’m anxious to see if they put the suggestion into place.“

“We were first-time customers and loved our experience today! Our server was excellent, and food was delicious! I ordered the PB&J Burger and loved it! Fries were an up-charge but worth every penny in my opinion! The ranch dipping sauce was excellent as well! We will be back!“

“"Where everybody knows your name....and they're always glad you came 😃" Cheers“

“I love coming here after waking up hungover. The drinks are affordable and the tacos remind of the tacos i used to get from this ice cream place in the early 90's. Unpretentious bar food, affordable drinks, and excellent service every time I've gone. What more could you want?“

“46 Bar is one of those spots that just gets it right. The food is awesome, the staff are friendly, and the vibe is laid-back but still has great energy. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they make because everything comes out hot, fresh, and packed with flavor. The 46 Hot & Spicy Bang Shrimp were the perfect way to start. Crispy, sweet, and spicy in all the right ways. The Beer Battered Mushrooms were another win — crunchy on the outside, tender inside, and that ranch dressing they serve with it is next-level good. For mains, the Big Bry Burger stole the show. Juicy patty, applewood bacon, provolone, and their house-made Thousand Island sauce all on a soft brioche bun. The Mel Burger had the perfect kick with jalapeños and peppers mixed with bacon and melted cheese. The Stuffed Burger is a must if you like a little heat — filled with jalapeño cream cheese and topped with bacon and mayo. Finally, the Chicken Tender Basket was simple comfort food done right. Crispy tenders, golden fries, and plenty of sauce options. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and everything tasted fresh. If you are anywhere near the area, this place is absolutely worth the stop. Great food, great people, and a guaranteed good time.“

“We love this place for a laid back date night! Cheap drinks, and I love the pollock! I would not recommend the queso or jalapeño poppers, but everything else has been delicious!“

“Tried their Jalepeno Cheddar Chicken (not burger) Sandwich this weekend. Hands down the MOST FLAVORFUL sandwich I have ever had in my life. We’ve enjoyed the Grand Finale pizza as our go-to order for a while, but I have a NEW favorite!“

“Their Pizza ìs deĺìcious!!“

“Waiter was very polite. Food was brought hot and quickly. Refills were caught immediately. Quick, friendly, and delicious. Thank you.“

“5 ⭐️ - Great variety and delicious food. Stop in and ask for Mariel! She’s the best!!!“

“Heads up for anyone looking at the online menu in 2025 they haven’t updated it yet but the prices of things have increased significantly. I ordered what would have been a $35 using te online prices but with the actual prices it turned out to be nearly $65“

“From central Illinois (nowhere near Chicago) spent a long weekend north of Muskegon, and enjoy checking out breweries. Unruly is in my top three of all I've visited. Was there Apr 26, and had a great conversation with the bartender, loved the vibe, artwork, and especially the brew. The scotch ale was near the top of any I've had......the stout was coffee forward with a chocolately finish (but not heavy)........and the sample of the barrel aged porter was incredible. If your distribution was this far south, I'd be buying often. You guys do it right.“

“Peanut butter was outstanding! Service very good ! I would definitely return.“

“My husband and I have lived in North Muskegon on Bear Lake all our lives and BLT was a staple for our families. However, had not been back for many years after bad experiences with new ownership. Now that’s it changed hands again we decided to try it. Service was phenomenal, food was great!! Planning on going back next week!!!“

“Booooozzzzzzeeee!!!!!!!!!!“

“Do not go here expecting to be catered to. The staff is busy, not there to hold your hand. 🤦‍♀
Go here if you like cheap drinks, tasty food (order the pickle pizza) and good live music. Seriously the pizza is crisped to thin crust perfection.

It is exactly what you want in a dive bar. Lots of loyal locals, atmosphere and a lowkey patio.“

“Great Staff great people great atmosphere“

“A regular stop for us on weekends. Pizza always delivers consistency and service is great. We always prefer to sit in the bar area but not always possible as so many others have found what we love in Clover Bar.“

“It was a wonderful experience.“

“New owner has made it amazing! Food was delicious and the staff were so friendly. Definitely a great vibe. Can’t wait to go back!“
