So lets just say the food is pretty good and if it was a drive thru that be great but unfortunately we ran into one of the worse not just waitresses but human beings ive seen in awhile and thats saying a lot.. anyone that can attack an 18 year old girl for doing absolutely nothing wrong except apparently not having a shirt on when she walked in is beyond me... not only did she embarrass her (we bought her a shirt) she came back and told her she was being sneaky and left our table of 8 wondering why? I think shes an old washed ugly inside and out person and this young girl was neither...anyways if you like being treated like a problem instead of a paying customer feel free to go there but if you are decent people just looking for good food and a cool atmosphere then pick something else because the food isnt good enough to justify your daughter inlaw getting attacked by some washed up lady... just saying read more

I have been going here for years. It always makes me feel better! The music, food staff and atmosphere next level! read more

Great fries! Good beer selection. Warm atmosphere. Nice waitresses. Good company. Good location.

It was a bit confusing. We ate outside which means you order from the food truck parked outside. It rotates everyday. The taco truck we ate at was yummy. My son loved the burrito. There is free water you can get from a dispenser outside. If you eat inside, you order from a menu read more

We heard this is a classic Grand Haven experience. We sat at the bar, enjoyed the bar atmosphere and ordered cheese balls (1/2 pepper jack & 1/2 jalapeño), would do 100% jalapeño next time. My husband and I split the beef & bean wet burrito. It was very good and large enough to split. We enjoyed our meal, met people and had an overall pleasant time. Our only change would be that the bar staff should come back and ask if we needed more to drink. read more

Tip-A-Few Tavern - Beef & Bean Wet Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Grand Haven, Michigan

Wet Burrito tasted old, stale. Very disappointed. Extremely loud restaurant & bar. That is all I wish to say at this time.

I actually had some drinks at Tip-Two. This is the outside patio that is separate from the front. I can't comment on the food, since I only ordered beer. If you're a person who likes to sit outside on a noisy street and people watch, car watch, you'd probably like this place. Good news, at least on the day I visited, no bugs, friendly service, no wait. Bad news $5 a beer. I realize it's summer time in GH, so the tourist money-grab season is at peak.....but I'd rather go to the Eagles at $4 for the same beer. Friendly clientele at the Eagles too. read more

Tip-A-Few Tavern - Tip Two, patio bar entrance - Mexican Near Me - Grand Haven, Michigan

The best place for music in Grand Haven tonite. BIG DADDY FOX rocks it home. Great music in a beautiful water setting.

Oh, this dive bar is such a vibe! It's like stepping into a gritty little time capsule of good times and cheap drinks. The bartender? Total sweetheart--quick with a pour and even quicker with a smile. The kind of person who makes you feel like a regular on your first visit. The ambiance is unapologetically divey, with just the right amount of neon glow and a jukebox that's a treasure chest of bops. The crowd is a delightful cocktail of locals and random wanderers, making for some truly entertaining people-watching. Sure, it's a little rough around the edges (sticky floors, anyone?), but that's part of the charm, right? Also, can we talk about the snack situation? The wings? Chef's kiss. Didn't know I'd be thinking about bar food in my dreams, but here we are. It's not trying to be anything it's not, and that's what makes it amazing. A couple of minor tweaks and this place would be a full five stars for me. Until then, it's still the kind of spot you go to when you want to let loose and keep it real. Will I be back? You bet your beer money I will. read more

Food is always excellent Especially the "Wet One"!!! One of the best Mexican restaurants in grand haven

Me and my buddies went there to watch college football . Plenty of screens, Great service from Tiffany, the Mexican pizza was very good as well read more

Pleasant hole-in-the wall in Grand Haven. First the bitch...We had to wait about 1/2 hour for a table, which was not bad, seeing it was Coast Guard fest. The only negative thing I have to say - is that while waiting the following occurred. I had my vape sitting on the table. I was not actively vaping nor had any thought to do this (you do not vape or smoke indoors). One waitress came up to me and told me that I need to put it away. I have vaped for many years and have NEVER had any establishment tell me to put my vape away. If provided rationale, I would have had no issue. No rationale was provided. I found this odd and was somewhat offended (I do not look to be offended - Karen I am not). My PSA to the community - vapers beware while entering the vape-averse Tip-A-Few Tavern... If people put their cigarettes, pipes, or blunts on the table, are they asked to remove them from sight? (0*) Onto the the parts that matter for most people. 1) Ambience (3*) - pleasant. It's a bar with seating for diners. 2) Service (3*) - pleasant - servers are there to get people fed ASAP and perhaps solicit a laugh while doing it 3) Food (4*) - we had chips and cheese with jalapenos appetizer. We enjoyed it. They provided extra jalapenos so even better. We also ordered the famous Wet Burrito. It was enjoyable. I was definitely full (and I am a fatass) after eating the meal. The wet burrito was not the best I've ever eaten, but certainly not the worst. It was good and the price $15.50 was good too. If you are looking for a quick bite and to be sated, this is a good place to go. Fine dining = no. Fun dining = yes. I may return when and if I return to the area - because of my 0* comment... read more

One of our favorite bars in the area. Low key, laid back, locals, great service and environment. Food is pretty good and definitely filling. I'd suggest splitting any entree. Lots of TVs to watch games. All around great neighborhood bar. read more

Tip-A-Few Tavern - ows a table full of food - Mexican Near Me - Grand Haven, Michigan

We were in Grand Haven it was a beautiful evening!! Decided to stop by this restaurant! Heard it had good Wet burritos and margaritas!! Our service was great!! we ordered the ground beef, wet burrito and it had an over abundance of taco seasoning in there and it did not taste good at all! So you might want think going there! read more

This is the Regal Beagle of Grand Haven. I have been on a quest to find the best Margarita in town. I sampled HiWay Inn, The Eagles Club, and the Tip. The Tip has the second best. It was VERY close to first. Here's why. HiWay uses their own mix with a patron upgrade. The Eagles used Cuervo Gold tequila, they really need to up their Margarita game especially now that they are serving Arturo's. Tip makes a simple, three ingredient margarita. Lime Juice Grand Marnier And a white tequila. (I don't know which one) It was fantastic. Try one tonight! read more

Best drinks in town! Love the Wet Burritos!!! Just a good ol' bar that slings major drinks! Keep up the good work!

The best atmosphere for the lions game and a great bar. The wet burrito is amazing! Strong pours, great drinks. Our waitress Jen was absolutely amazing. So attentive, honest, informative and just on her game the whole time even though she was very busy! She made the experience by going above and beyond and not missing a beat! Thank you Jen! We will be back! read more

Usually a good spot for a meal. My wife ate there last night. Had the potato skins. Came home not feeling well. Didn't think it was the skins. I just ate her leftovers and within 15 min found myself I'll. Writing this review from the can where it seems I'll be spending my evening. Checking in after 40 min...operation black-water still in full read more

Chicken tacos were dry and the waitress was unfriendly and didn't care to the person's needs

Had my reservations going in based on previous reviews and what people had said word of mouth. Pleasantly surprised we had a few rounds of drinks and split a bunch of stuff on the menu (nachos , chicken strips etc.) it was all we. above bar food and reasonably priced considering the area. We will be coming here every time we come to Grand Haven. read more

I try to vacation in GH every year with my daughter. This year I had a trip with my best friend and took her to Tip-a-few. it was a weekday and the greeter at the door was very nice. He said it was a long wait but offered two seats at the bar that were open. we asked if you could eat at the bar and he said yes! we sat down and asked the bartender for a few menus. she gave the meanest look and went to get menus. then proceeded to whisper to the man that was working with her. witnessing all this we both looked at each other in disbelief. We thought if that's how they treat people we were outta there! we immediately left and found another restaurant. I guess she assumed we were not going to order drinks! The greeter at the door was very apologetic and we told him it was ok, not his fault. So...FYI don't sit at the bar and ask for menus. read more

The waitress was beyond rude today. Haven't been here in years and our friends wanted to meet here. We all regret going.

Most food is less than average but their prices seemed comparable to what I pay for a good dinner in Chicago. Next time I'd just go to Taco Bell. Waitress kinda seemed bothered by having to serve us. The only pleasant part of the experience was the chicken chili with chips. read more

You get what you expect , very good bar food , with very well known burritos and enchiladas, Tim knows how to mix a drink as do others , be careful of the margaritas they cause you to behave strangely if you have more than 2. Its a staple when we want fun , low cost night out w friends. We enjoyed Tip again on a warm September evening. It was burrito night and they did not disappoint. We had a party of 5 and were seated quickly. Nothing fancy here just beers and 3 dollar off burritos on a Monday. Very satisfied group of us made those burritos disappear! They are Keto friendly as they'll serve burritos baked on a platter without the shells , just ooey gooey cheese and meat. I'd suggest adding onions jalapeños, and sour cream on the side. read more

To add to Rays charging $2.50 for ice water. I live across the street from Tip and I think Steve wants everyone to either pay for his AirBB above the Tip or a new Audi. We were charged an extra $2.50 for side of 10 onions for my burrito. Unbelievable! I also ordered a side of fries before the burrito arrived. $7.00 for 18 fries. Can you believe it? Not going back. I will go to Aurteros or McDonalds. Watch the extras that are not priced. No blame for new employees, waitress has been there forever. Don't help Steve out. read more

Service staff should not be working in service. Rude at best. She told us to sit down and she would get to us when she gets to us. Not the first time we have had this poor excuse of a waitress. read more

If you have a party of greater than 4 people just don't even bother. My family was given an estimate of 45 minutes and we waited 2 hours before begging to squeeze into a 4 top. The food was great, serving staff as well. The real reason for the one star though is the absolute imbecile working the front. Not sure if he is a hostess or a bouncer but he is an absolute worthless waste. Not only did he constantly assure us a few more minutes numerous times with error. He smoked weed in front of us, which I have no problem with weed, but he was on the clock supposed to be working. He and his two buddies (who weren't there working) occupied a table that could have fit at least 7 people had the given even the slightest shit about their customers. His presence at that restaurant was unnecessary and honestly detrimental to the entire experience/business. Not sure who runs the place but the front end needs to be overhauled and at a minimum retrained so that there is a monicker of competence before being seated. I know for a fact I will never return here as it just simply isn't worth the headache, which is a shame because the food really is good, especially the wet burrito. Again, If you have less than 5 people you will likely have a much better experience. But if you value your time, go anywhere else. read more

Great dive bar! This place has been around FORVEVER, and really hasn't changed much over the years. You probably wouldn't know, but it's a great spot for Mexican food. My favorite are the chips n cheese. It's as if they made sure to load every chip with a heaping amount of melted cheddar cheese. So good!! I also got the wet burrito. It too is covered with a ton of cheddar, and is just enormous! I love to eat and couldn't finish it all. It's super tasty! Ask for some salsa on the side! Staff was very attentive and friendly! read more

Tip-A-Few Tavern - Wet burrito - Mexican Near Me - Grand Haven, Michigan

Went to the Tip A Few Sunday of 4th of July weekend. Could not believe we walked in and got a table with no waiting. Luckily timing. This is easy walking distance from the boardwalk on the waterfront. On the downside it is Very small and kinda loud. Plus side the beer - Perrin Black on tap was served almost ice chip cold. Waitress was friendly and really good. Did not wait for anything. Had fish and fries, (cod) it was good and very hot. Others of the group had wet burritos and said they were really good. I am normally not one for stating a place is really good and I did kinda get bothered by the noise level but all in all I am sure we will be back next time we walk to the pier. read more

Always busy place. good food., bad parking, and it's pretty friendly wait staff. service is good they have keno the host greeting people was rude it's very dark and very cramped atmosphere is loud and hurried. No relaxing here. Not bad prices and Never the less ok place for a burrito. read more

It is a neighborhood bar that is great for hanging with like minded sports enthusiasts or just a catching up with friends. The food is comforting and portions are generous, and that also goes for drinks with a wide variety of your favorite beer as well. While Covid has presented its challenges, the Tip is very conscious of the health and safety of it's patrons and staff. You may have to wait a little due to seating restrictions, but it will be worth the wait. read more

It's a local favorite, or so I'm told. :) The boys settled on this place and it didn't disappoint. I've only been during a weekday late afternoon and it was a exactly as it should be. Dark on the inside with the walls completely covered with memorabilia. If I had to pick a favorite piece it would be the totem pole. No fuss kind of menu. We split the cheese & chips deluxe, aka nachos, with taco meat, which included lots of melty cheese, jalapenos and chunks of tomatoes. The other guys both got these massive wet burritos. One of the guys mentioned that most places stuff their burritos with a lot of rice to fill it up, but here, he happily noticed it was mostly pack full of meat. Lots of tvs with choices between golf, football talk, or even the lottery. read more

Must order chips & cheese. This is cute, small tavern. Great for a few casual drinks and food. Prices are fair. Seat yourself and usually always busy. The wet burrito is HUGE and the sauce is to die for. read more

Tip-A-Few Tavern - Half of full wet burrito - huge - Mexican Near Me - Grand Haven, Michigan

See all

This is a small bar and grill. We checked in and had a 40 minute wait. It was somewhat challenging to find parking nearby. We ordered the chips and cheese which were just tortilla chips with melted shredded cheese. For $10 I could have bought a large bag of chips and large shredded cheese and popped it in the microwave myself. The wet burrito was good and large enough to share. The waitress had a few larger tables but didn't even really try to stop by our table. The manager got our refills and took our payment. read more

Went to this bar with a big group and got the worst service ever. The waitress talked to us with a tone all night and almost seemed to be avoiding our table. We asked for a round of shots and she just blew us off. The bouncer told multiple people in our group that we needed to quiet down or we'll be removed from the bar. At the end of the night the waitress TOLD me what to tip her. Never in my life have I had someone tell me to tip 20%. I wouldn't consider this as a place to party. We went to Kirby's down the street and had a way more enjoyable time. read more

The reason this gets two stars is because the beer was cold and the waitress worked her butt off. This food is absolutely atrocious. The place was super busy which I thought might be really good food. People behind us said you're going to love it. I don't think they've ever had real Mexican food before. We honestly said going to Taco Bell or Burger King would have been a better option. And it's very overpriced. The guy at the front door was horrible he was very rude. The little bar on the corner that's connected to it it was very good in the waitress was great. Do yourself a favor and don't go there. read more

Picked up the enchiladas again today. First time in a year since COVID-19. They were amazing as always. The device was spectacular as always!! read more

I normally don't like to travel over the bridge into Grand Haven on a night out, but if I do it's most likely to Tip-A-Few. It is one of the few places in Grand Haven that doesn't have that "college bar" atmosphere. This place reminds me of my home turf (Stan's Bar, Spring Lake) just over the bridge with their welcoming staff and great prices! If you are looking for a good meal as well they serve up a great Mexican dish! Oh and don't forget to order some OLD cheese balls for a starter! read more

Always high quality food and drinks. Drinks can be strong but a good bang for your buck. Amazing staff. Very quick food turnout. Been a resident in GH for 6 years and we're lucky to have a place like this here. Great hole in the wall kinda feel. read more

So, if you are looking for a Mexican restaurant, this not the place to go. Wet Burrito ($12.50)ok, Tacos ($11.75) -terrible and Chips and Salsa ($5.75!)- blah. Chips and salsa should be free for what I am paying!!! We dropped $30 for 2 meals and didn't have a beverage- just water! This place is a bar trying to be a restaurant. If you want a bar, go here. If you want Mexican food- go somewhere else. Go anywhere else! read more
