I've been here with small groups and large groups and we have always received great service. The menu states that since everything is made from scratch it might take up to an hour to get your food but it has never taken that long when we have been here. On this visit we started with two orders of nachos, requesting no meat in one order. The nachos here are seriously my favorite that I have ever had from any restaurant. Ingredients include roasted corn, black beans,, red onion, cheese, lettuce, pico, cilantro, and lime chipotle cream, and choice of meats. We ordered ground beef on one order and the other meatless. After the nachos we ordered a Fun Guy pizza and a burrito, which was huge! We all shared the pizza and burrito. We enjoyed goat cheese cheesecake for dessert. It was wonderful. This place always has the best food of any bar I ever go to. A must try when you are in Holland.

It's below Butch's Dry Dock downtown, and you either have to email them to ask for a password, or stop by Butch's host desk and ask for 'a table downstairs'. They give you instructions then. The five of us all tried something different, from cocktails with absinthe and flaming sugar cubes, to vodka infused fruity drinks, and even a simple red wine. Our bartender had been working here for a couple years, so he knew the specials and was quick with his work. A real mix of customers from a college student to a couple of workmates, our family, and another group of friends further back. It's a small place which makes it cozy but a little hard to get into at times; we had to wait 20 minutes for enough free seats. We'll be back; it was fun!

Did you know there is a speakeasy in Holland?…read more Right below Butch's Dry Dock downtown Holland you can find a small dim lit cocktail bar! You can go to their website to get on the email list for the password each week or you can go to the host stand at Butch's and ask if there is available seating "downstairs". The two times I've done this, the host always understands. They pick up the phone and call downstairs to see if there's any open spots and let us go down there. There are stairs or you can take the elevator to the basement level. After you've arrived downstairs you can find the door with the black lock symbol and KNOCK THREE TIMES. They will let you in and welcome you to find a seat. They have a water station where you can help yourself and some tables and a couch and bar seating. The menu is pretty fantastic. I haven't had a drink that I dislike yet! The prices are a bit elevated but that's okay for a fancy drink imo. Hope you check out this gem if you're ever in Holland and want to go on a little adventure to find this place! My only complaint is the basement area smells a little funky but inside the bar was fine. But otherwise it's totally amazing and worth the experience! The people working here are great too! So kind'

What an awful bar. Not even worth a single star…read more I moved here to west mich about 5 years ago. I've been to a lot of bars around the US and this is by far the worst one I've ever been to. So dirty, smells like a porta potty right when you walk in. All of the workers put me off in a bad way, I remember once they were closing down and the DJ just started blasting scream-o. Just feels like everyone hates you here. One of the last couple times I was here I threw up after one draft beer. They probably never clean their taps, or worse. If you come get a bottle of something and WATCH them open it at the bar. These workers at parrots are the types of people to roofie your drink as well, you think I'm kidding, ask around a little bit of people who have frequented here. No reason I should be over the toilet after one drink. It's astonishing that someone owns this sorry excuse of a bar and allows it to bring down holland and the surrounding area. Maybe they'll get closed down wouldn't that be a pleasant surprise. I'll be at Skiles!

This restaurant's manager tried to gaslight an old(er) man into believing Eagle Rare Rye was Eagle…read moreRare Bourbon instead of paying for his staff's mistake! Here's the full story: My Dad loves his Bourbon. He ordered "Eagle Rare Bourbon neat" and specifically said, "not the Rye". Well when he takes his first sip, Dad immediately knows it is the Rye. Unfortunately, the waiter already walked away. He passed the glass around, and everyone at the table agreed to the best of their knowledge that it is a Rye. I've had both. It tastes like the Rye. When the waiter comes back, he apologies and goes back to get the Bourbon. This time, he comes back with a small tasting glass to make sure Dad wants the Bourbon. He drinks it, confirms this one is the Bourbon, and the waiter is on his way. So far, good customer service! Except, the waiter doesn't come back with the proper drink. Next, the manager comes back and explains he "watched the video footage and confirmed the bartender did not touch the Eagle Rare Rye bottle, therefore the original drink must be the Bourbon". Nope! No no no no no. My Dad tasted both, and they are definitely not from the same bottle! After the manager walked away, I smelled the empty tasting glass and the original Rye glass and 100% confirmed for myself that the liquor in each glass was different! You aren't going to gaslight my nose and my Dad's much more experienced taste buds! Either the manager was lying about reviewing video footage, he reviewed footage from the wrong timeframe, or the original Rye wasn't even from Eagle Rare but some other bottle the manager wasn't looking at. He did NOT confirm that the footage showed the bartender poring Eagle Rare Bourbon the first time. Anyways, we were too polite to make a fuss at the time, but I'm finally taking the time to write this review. Who reviews video footage (or worse, lies about doing so) over a single drink dispute? Who looks an old(er) man dead in the face and claims his taste buds are deceiving him? I'm very disappointed by the behavior of that manager.

Honestly they need something besides just TVs on the wall so it's not so plain looking. I ordered the Slab Bacon ($16) this is 1/2lb cherry wood smoked dry aged bacon with hot honey chili flakes. This reminded me of charred hot dogs, high quality hot dogs though. It was good-ish. I did eat it after all, but I'd never order it again. For my main I ordered the Bacon Jam Burgh-er ($14) this is a Steak sauce infused burger, white American, cheddar cheese, house-made award winning bacon jam. For all that was on the burger, it was underwhelming. Not bad, just a little meh. The service was okay. The order took longer than most places after I placed my order. Not horrible by any means, just noticeable. Everyone was super friendly and pleasant to be around. Overall a 3 star review. Would I return? No. There is a much better burger just a couple doors down. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, but just not for me.

We were seated quickly, and the hostess and our waitress were both very sweet. You are allowed 2 samples of beer, and my hubs and I each tried 2. We both ended up ordering the Bourbon Barrel Aged Fudgie Brownie (or something like that.) It was rich and delicious- no notes. The food was good, but a little pricey for what it was. We ordered tge brussel sprouts, and felt the lacked something. We got a side of balsamuc reduction for $2, and that helped. We also shared a 12" Hollander pizza. The sauce was creamy, and the sweetness from the caramelized onions was a great touch. Red pepper flakes helped balance out the flavors. We felt like there was too much crust. Having 2 inches of crust made us feel like we were missing sauce, and I didn't like the crust without the sauce. It was overall good, but not a place we would feel the need to visit again in future travels.

Cozy tables and subdued lighting give a warm and comfy rustic vibe, but there are also plenty of screens to catch whatever game you hope to watch. That combo always works for me. Their spare ribs are out. of. this. world. Fall off the bone tender and seasoned for a delicious combo of salty, meaty, savory goodness. S&P's homemade barbecue sauce comes on the side, but you should try them naked before you add the sauce. I get downright weepy thinking about them. Served with mashed potatoes (mine were dry and needed more flavor) or waffle fries. Baked potatoes were not an option. Full bar with more than a dozen taps that rotate craft and mainstream brews. See the menu and order by draft number. And save room for the carrot cake. That's all I'll say. Reservations accepted and are a smart idea on weekends or holidays.
