Restaurants near Grand Rapids

“Wild Side Brewery is everything you want in a small-town spot with great vibes. Located in a beautiful, historic brick building just steps from the Maumee River, it blends old-school charm with a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to hang out all night. The live local music scene is one of the best in the region; whether it’s a gritty acoustic set or a full band, the talent they bring in consistently delivers. It’s the kind of place where the music fills the room but doesn’t overpower conversation. Their beer selection is a thoughtful mix of house brewed favorites and rotating taps from other standout Ohio and Michigan breweries. You’ll always find something new to try, and it’s clear they take pride in showcasing local craft talent. If you’re not a big craft beer person and want something on the lighter side, try the Shotgun Ale. And don’t even think about leaving without trying the Detroit-style pizza. It’s thick, crispy, cheesy, and absolutely loaded with flavor. Although they have a solid Wild Side Amber, if I had one small suggestion, it’d be to bring in a few more dark beers—porters, stouts, browns, and reds. The hop lovers are well taken care of, but us dark beer fans would love to see a bit more variety on the maltier side. Overall, Wild Side Brewery is a must stop if you’re anywhere near Grand Rapids, Ohio. Great drinks, incredible pizza, amazing music, and all of it inside a beautiful, historic building right near the river. It’s Ohio small town charm at its finest.”

“The Buzz Diner is the epitome of a homey resturant. The smell of warm brewed coffee fills the air. The servers are beyond nice and make sure you feel welcomed and cared for. I come in very often and I would consider myself a 1-2 time/week regular. If anyone gives the place less than 4 or 5 stars, I would be appalled. The food is awesome and the prices are better. $6.00 for a huge omlette and then pocket change for a cup of joe. The Buzz Family Diner is flawless inside and out, please visit here.”

“We were able to have some amazing Doc’s Rib Cage food at a party, and it was all hot and tasty! The staff was wonderful to work with, and the Mac and cheese, chicken chunks, and shredded pork were especially delicious! The portions were huge, so we got to have awesome leftovers too!”

“Wow, this little pizzeria is really good! I’ve been watching the staff. They hustle but also are so very nice. Their customer service is impressive and the flavor is fantastic! My family and I are in town for Fauxchella or else this would be my new favorite place! I also operate my own small business, so I pay attention to how the employees work at other locally owned businesses. Everyone here is so nice, they deliver great customer service, and the pizza is so delicious!”

“Went out to eat at the Whitehouse Inn ... my bill was $23.16. I gave him $40.00.... should have gotten back 16.84. I would have left him a $5.00 tip. But he brought me back $7.00. Got that???? So I went straight into the kitchen and found him. He knew ASAP and I said I gave you $40.00 and showed him the 7.00 he immediately gave me $10.00. So just to be nice the I gave him $2.66 tip. Watch your change back on cash customers... It was a male with black hair and about 45 years old maybe.”

“Thank you to the staff and to the owners of Subway of Whitehouse. Always available for us to quickly order enough after game meals for 100 athletes. Appreciate the efficiency and also the affordable pricing.”

“Food was 10/10. Absolutely perfect. Service was definitely junior varsity. Wife and I were seated with one menu, had to get the other myself. Seated with no silverware or napkins ( got our own from the bar) and was treated like an inconvenience when asked for silverware after our food had come out. They were busy and I’ve worked food service so I’m pretty understanding about certain things, but we were trying leave and make room for others waiting for a table but we had to ask multiple times for a Togo box. The little things add up. Will still go back. Food was too good”

“I ordered a "macaroni and cheese pizza" w/bacon to go. The order was done at thw expected time. The employees seemed distant and uninterested, kind of bored. The waiting area was sparse, narrow, and uncomfortable, but not to the point where I'd complain, but definately nothing to rave about. Overall, if you make a pick-up order, I wouldn't recommend arriving early. Just come in, get the food and leave.”
