Located on a bustling stretch of Bridge Street in downtown Grand Rapids, our second brewpub is affectionately known as “The Knickerbocker.” The expansive brewpub features an indoor and outdoor beer garden, three separate bars, a wood-fired oven, and many dining spaces suited for private events. The menu includes artisanal and locally-sourced food, our full line of craft beer and spirits, small-batch pub brews, handcrafted cocktails, and more!
NEW! We are ready to welcome guests to our all-season beer garden with the addition of a new retractable roof. Guests can dine outdoors year-round, regardless of rain or snow. The addition of the retractable roof takes away the guesswork from the unpredictable Michigan weather and hard winters. The radiant overheard heating system will provide a for a comfortable outdoor space.
