Restaurants in Grand Rapids

“We went to celebrate a birthday and our group had excellent service (thank you Maddie!) and the food for each course was top notch. I’ll be thinking about the beets and carrot cake for a long time! It was a great way to celebrate and as locals it was nice to have somewhere to go that had a good vibe! We will for sure be coming back.”

“This was my favorite Mexican restaurant. I really enjoyed the fresh veg and good horchata! Food arrives pretty fast and is always hot, temperature wise. The location in Grand Rapids is the place to go!”

“The workers all are nice, helpful and knowledgeable. And the pasties are SO GOOD. I always buy 6 at a time and freeze them for a quick “oh crap I didn’t thaw anything” meal”

“Great time with family & friends!!”

“It's a drive thru - no atmosphere.
Hit and miss. The service is awesome, but I've been stiffed on drinks before. My last mocha was only 2/3 filled.
Given the prices, that shouldn't happen.

Parking: Caribou over SBUX 8 days a week!
MN nice versus corporate wokeness. So glad to have a local business against the West Coast woke squad.”

“Good beers. And nice environment”

“Wow!! Amazing food and amazing service! Went for my best friend’s Uncle’s 70th birthday party & they had the back room rented. Everything went so smooth! Bonus: If you have kids.. they have great arcade games. A must stop while you’re in Grand Rapids! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”

“Great place -- Great People !”

“The employees are always so welcoming. I have never had a bad experience with drinks or employees. 10 out of 10.”

“I usually do not write any reviews but this time I have to. My office is just down the hall from Spartan and I get to smell all the delicious items each day. We'll today I ordered a new item called Brie Wild. This is bar far one of the BEST sandwiches I have ever had. Im not sure what or how they do it, but this IS my go to from now on. I am not only hooked on this sandwich but also as a customer!!! 5 Stars for sure!!! Let's Go!!”

“Got a pizza for a game night and process was pleasant. There was a couple people when I arrived but the line moved quickly. You basically say what you want and pay at the cashier first then you wait as they make your pizza, then pick it up and go.

They do have other products such as chips and drinks. Price is great as well. Nice little detail was that with the pizza box they put the instructions for heating up which was very helpful. I’ve never been to a restaurant/store like this before and it was fun.”

“Little gem of a cafe in heart of Grand Rapids. We stopped in for breakfast on a weekday. They have free parking behind restaurant and a rear entrance. Was seated immediately by delightful server. We noticed immediately how clean everything was. Nice up north woodsy theme, all wood tables and chairs (and a small area for counter service). Appears to be a number of locals, which is always a good sign. We promptly received water and coffee, and never needed to ask for refills. Server was outstanding, quick, efficient and just chatty enough to be polite and helpful. Omelets were really good size, everything was cooked to our liking, and plates were warmed so kept food hot while we ate. You will not go hungry here! Would recommend for breakfast or lunch. Must pay cash or check, no credit cards accepted…but they have an ATM in case you didn’t notice signs.”

“Went from Walker with friends for the best ribs. Delicious as usual. Salad was a little wilted. Service was friendly and excellent. Will be back soon.”

“the service was incredible today! keep up the great work”

“We read a few reviews before deciding to take a chance: glad we did. Saw a few where people seemed to have gripes and moans you experience at any restaurant but had been to other food places in Grand Rapids and wanted to see for ourselves. I had chicken tetrazzini and it was great! Had to get a doggy bag for half because of the portion size,, really looking forward to finishing it off at home now. We sat in a booth, in the bar area, on a Sunday early evening with very few people, to be honest, and had great service. I don't know what time or day or who the cook was when some of these other people gave low reviews but glad I decided to give 'em a try! We'll be back!”

“We ended up deciding to stay in town last minute as we came for our engagement pictures and they were the only place that had a room available! They had AMAZING staff!! The three girls my fiancé and I met were so friendly and nice!! It was also a HUGE benefit that they are PET FRIENDLY!! As we have two large dogs who stayed with us! The room was very clean and our bed was comfy!! I loved the vibe at this hotel! I would highly recommend it! Locally owned and great service!! The breakfast was amazing and so were the drinks! Thank you girls for making our trip extra special for our 5 year anniversary!”

“Wow! I give their pastry chef 5 stars! Panini s to die for. Coffee drink was also more complex than anything available in town!”

“Excellent coffee and customer service! New management has made this lovely coffee shop even more inviting. My favorite place to stop when I am shopping in the area!”

“The best coffee in Grand Rapids”

“Kelly knocked it out of the park on our latest custom cake and cookies! Not only did they look amazing they tasted delicious!! Every cake over the years has always been beyond our expectations and keeps us coming back!”

“We had Abby tonight . She was extremely polite and professional. Food is typically good and it’s always nice and clean .”

“Brewed Awakenings is my go to place for coffee. They have wonderful homemade muffins and their monster cookies and ginger snaps are my go to grab when bringing treats. A great place to meet up with friends.”

“My husband, mother in law and myself went to breakfast today! I've heard a lot of good things about their smothered hash browns... and they lived up to their hype! It comes with 2 pieces of toast and 2 eggs! You could share it with somebody! $13!!! We will definitely be back!”

“Love the Royal English Breakfast Tea LATTE, but 90 percent of the time I don’t get it as ordered. I either get it as black tea or no liquid sugar cane added. Very frustrating.”

“Came in for a quick lunch and staff were quick and friendly. I got one of their salads which was very good. They do have their usual variety of sandwiches and their flavours, salads, cookies, wraps, and more add ons.

When you first enter the smell of delicious bread is very strong too. Overall, a usual experience at a Subway.”

“Been all over the U.S. and I will say really impressed top notch no complaints the rolls are amazing!”

“Zorbaz has been extremely hospitable towards our band and our guests. Going well above and beyond what is expected from a venue of their size. We love playing here!”

“Great food. Great people. No maga.”

“Where to begin... The decor is breathtaking. The food is delicious and the service is classy and kind. This place sets the bar for fine dining in or around Grand Rapids. Five stars!!!”

“The food was fresh and perfectly cooked. The dumplings and dumpling sauce was exquisite. All dishes were tasty and fresh. Sushi was excellent and the yum yum sauce and eel sauce amazing!!! Will definitely be at there again!”

“Great place! Looking forward to coming back again!”

“Great place to eat…great for family dining and menu has variety”

“There are 2 Subways in Grand Rapids and this is one of them. Good options for sandwiches, cookies, wraps, salads, drinks, and snacks. The lady that took my order was super friendly too.

This one’s slightly bigger than the other one and gets busier. It was a very nice enviornment to eat in as well. Not too loud at all.”

“I’ve been going to Dunkin’ for a while, and honestly it’s one of my favorite places to grab breakfast or a coffee. The thing I like most about Dunkin’ is that it’s reliable. No matter which location I go to, I usually know what I’m getting, and that’s something I appreciate.

The coffee is probably the best part. I drink iced coffee most of the time, and Dunkin’ has a lot of flavors to choose from. Their coffee isn’t too strong or bitter, which makes it easy to drink even if you’re not a huge coffee person. The seasonal drinks are usually pretty good too, especially during the fall and winter.

Of course, Dunkin’ is known for its donuts. My personal favorites are the Boston Kreme and the Chocolate Frosted. The donuts are always soft and sweet, and there are enough choices that almost anyone can find something they like. They might not be as fancy as donuts from a local bakery, but they’re still really good and hit the spot when you’re craving something sweet.

Another thing I like is the breakfast food. Their breakfast sandwiches are quick, filling, and easy to grab when you’re in a hurry. The hash browns are also surprisingly good for a fast-food breakfast place. Everything comes out pretty quickly, which is nice when you’re trying to get to school, work, or wherever you need to be.

One of the biggest reasons Dunkin’ is so popular is because it’s affordable. Compared to a lot of coffee shops, you can get a drink and something to eat without spending a ton of money. That’s a big plus, especially if you’re stopping there regularly.

If I had to point out a downside, I’d say that some locations are better than others. Sometimes the coffee is perfect, and other times it might not taste quite the same. Still, most of my experiences have been positive.

Overall, I think Dunkin’ is a great place to get coffee, donuts, and breakfast. It may not be the fanciest coffee shop out there, but it’s fast, affordable, and consistently good. That’s why I keep going back, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a quick and tasty breakfast. I’d give Dunkin’ a 1000 out of 10.”

“Haven’t had Chinese food this good in years!!! Highly recommend. Their sauces are full of flavor and they use good quality meats trimmed of fat.”

“It is a very calm and serene place with friendly customer service and great food and beverages. They play very peaceful and calm music at a level that allows customers to converse.

Vegetarian options: Meatless breakfast sandwiches and tiny bites.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is a one level Cafe and welcomes all people of all abilities.”

“It was my first time at an Arby’s and I had a pleasant experience. It was practically empty when I arrived. They have a drive-thru but I decided to eat in. I got a Rueben sandwich which was absolutely delicious.

They got a nice spread of hamburgers, drinks, sandwiches and fries. Food arrived fast as well. You can get your drinks and sauces to the left of where you order and pay too. It’s a very nice seating area and a decently long restaurant.”

“Decent food and service. We opted for the 2 for $25 deal. Lime chicken was good. Rice - meh. Wait times a little long. If you don't order when the server is ready, prepare for the long haul.”
