    This is what I received when I ordered Shepherds Pie from Graydon's for takeout.

    Presentation and flavor! We used to come in just for the Shepherds Pie but it isn't as good as it used to be prior to the fire that happened there years ago. I imagine those chefs moved on during the renovation. Kind of sad since there are only a couple of places in town that have it on the menu and Graydon's is the only one I know of that uses lamb.

    Vegetarian naanwich $15....really nice flavor
    Renee J.

    It's been several months since our last visit. Overall, the quality of service and food wasn't as good as previous visits. Disappointed with the grilled bruschetta appetizer, served on one huge piece of bread cut in half, impossible to cut into serving sizes with a butter knife and bread soggy. Impressed with the flavorful naanwhich Overall all of our entrees were just ok. My short ribs were good, but the potatoes were overwhelming in portion, and the brocollini cold and overcooked. The cheesecake was good. As was the chef's choice skillet brownie with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Their new order system should have resulted in quicker service, but it didn't. Also, thru don't present ypu with a printed bill, but handed over the device to swipe credit card and tip. It was only because that I asked for a printed receipt did I realize I was doubled charged gor some items. Too many other restaurants in Grand Rapids, that we will probably go to in the future...very sad, this place used to be a favorite place to go to.

    Celiac Foodie: 1st time here and I'll be back!! They have several Gluten Free options to choose from and they all sound so good! I ordered the Chicken Sandwich (Grilled) and it was delicious with Pickled Red Onions, Tomato, Kale and Jalapeño Aioli on top! Wow! So good! I also tried the Caramel Apple Cocktail and it was delicious! It's a must HAVE when you visit! No health issues after consuming my meal. Check this place out! Happy dining!!

    Crispy fish sandwich
    Mina M.

    Came to down for a wedding and the rehearsal dinner was held here outside on the patio. I was so happy with my fish sandwich. It had a great ginger sauce and the fish was very crispy. Our server was personable and nice. We had a table of about 15-20 and he was super attentive and kept our drinks coming :) The chicken sandwich on the bagel was interesting.... I think our table agreed that we would order it in a bun if we got it again.

    Brunch drink specials
    TY Y.

    Great weekend brunch spot just north of downtown. Traditional and creative pub menu, plenty of drafts, brunch drink specials and more; the casual ambience, friendly service, tasty comfort fare, filling portions makes this a fun eatery place! Overall, solid 4.0 rating with cost range $12-18pp. Today I tried their hearty Breakfast Burrito, filled with fresh scrambled eggs, Applewood bacon, fried potatoes, cheddar, giardinieras, and topped with Chorizo gravy - yum! Definitely gotta be hungry to finish this one! Friends tried the Shepards Pie, house-made, cooked perfectly with plenty of potatoes, tender meat and veggies. Served piping hot and plenty to share if you have a lighter appetite. The Asparagus and Mushroom Diane and Bang Bang Shrimp were excellent starters to share as well. Graydon's may be off the beaten path, but it's an eatery or watering hole worth visiting. Enjoy!!

Atmosphere is always bumping--there's live music and other themed nights and it was jam packed on a Tuesday night. Vibes and beers are unmatched in my opinion. Big fan of the Golden Ticket and the Wilde Irish Red Ale or again, whatever is on cask. As far as the food goes, it's definitely... brown plates all around. Fryz'licious was slightly overpowering with the amount of beer cheese slopped on there, but a good bite with some hot sauce. Big fan of the beer cheese. Those Nantucket Backing pretzels are 10/10. Fish and chips weren't great. Not a lot of fish--two pieces with more batter than cod. Sort of disappointed with that. St. Patrick's Day specialty menu replaced their chicken pot pie with a sheperd's pie and a Bailey's cheesecake. Sheperd's pie was a good bite, exactly what I'd imagine lamb, mashed potatoes, and peas/carrots would taste like. Cheesecake was heavy handed on the booze, but a good palette cleanser after all the fried food.

The kinda place you enter and the bartender's outside smoking a cigarette and goes, "Be right in, doll." The space is huge. It kind of reminds me of a community hall.

The locals seems to all know each other -- lots of shouting across the bar and asking what everyone was doing next week or for the current holiday. Really nice vibes. The bartender was attentive too.

Much cleaner, more friendly, better service, and more accommodating to those "not regulars"

In fact, my kids laughed at my wife when she got a salad and wasn't overly impressed "Mom, why would you get a salad at a place with great burgers?!?" My thoughts exactly. The service is decent, the space is comfortable for a downtown spot on Monroe Center. When I visit, I focus solely on the burgers and I've never been disappointed. The 'Meat Wagon', topped with ribeye, ham and bacon just wants to cuddle your belly from the inside. The 'Otto Von Burger' topped with a fried egg and bacon is one of the best examples of its kind. The 'Alabamer' is great when you're craving pulled pork and bacon on your burger. If you just want a traditional burger, you have that option and won't be disappointed. Also, the loaded fries are solid, but personally, I would pass on the fancier offerings. Remember: Burgers over fancy apps and skip the salads and you'll be fine.

We were lucky enough to snag a table in the corner and it was the perfect spot to catch up with my friend. It is seat yourself! Our waitress arrived quickly and we ordered drinks and food. The fried pickles for an appetizer were amazing. Some of the best fried pickles I've had in a while and the ranch was soooo good. Also the portion is huge so we were able to take a lot of home. I had my eye on the mortadella with pistachio cream sandwich from the moment they posted the special on Facebook and it was everything I expected.

We arrived right at 5 pm on a Friday and the place was almost full already! We were surprised but happy for them, and glad to get a nice cozy two-top in a back corner. We were greeted by our awesome server and ordered some food -- two different mortadella sandwiches and an order of fried pickles to start. Neither of us ordered drinks, but I saw some fun-looking cocktails coming over to nearby tables. The fried pickles came out first and they were perfection. I don't usually get this appetizer because I don't like fried pickle spears, but these were thin chips. The ratio of the fried pickle chip vs. spear is way better. And these came with the best runny ranch. It was a huge portion to split between the two of us, so we had lots left over. Our sandwiches came out shortly after and looked amazing. They were super stacked with tons of meat! I really liked the addition of the grainy mustard which helped cut through the fattiness of the meat. My friend liked hers - it had pistachio butter and ricotta (similar to a delicious sandwich I ate at a wine bar in Detroit). Portions are large and it's a cozy, neighborhood spot. They have rotating food features and are always helping out their community with free meals and other philanthropic ventures. Check them out!
