This was my first visit to the brewery. I had tried their beers but had not been to their place. One must put the place in context and this is just a fun, informal and relaxing place with excellent beers and great sandwiches. I shared a pulled pork one with my wife (they are huge) and tried a couple of... More

Stopped here for a growler to go recently. What a neat place, it was a beautiful day out so the garage doors were open and the place was packed on a Sunday, everyone was enjoying themselves with beer and good company. Did not eat here so I cannot comment on the food, looked like you place your own order in... More

Visiting from MN I was surprised to see how many micro-brews were available in the Grand Rapids area. Looked at a few reviews and my colleague and I decided on Founders for a bite and some beers. Best decision we made! There was 15+ home brews on tap of varying styles and alcoholic content, all at very reasonable prices. We... More

Always a favorite off ours. The house beers are excellent an the food is also good. It is not the fastest food around but then again why do we need it fast. Sit back and enjoy the crowd. Usually quite noisy

This was my first time at Founders. It was very busy, as it was GVSU's graduation weekend. The food selection was good, and our sandwiches were great. Large food portions. We all got half of sandwiches and left full. Service was good for as busy as it was. Will definitly return again! Staff knowledgable and very helpful on beer selections!

If you come to Grand Rapids and like beer then Founder's is the place to go. They have world class beer consistently rated as 10 ten material in the United States. The taproom has an excellent selection of current beers, drafts, and even experimental beers that you can sample. The food is good especially the sandwiches. If you go here,... More

I have to start by saying that I have been a fan of Founders beer offerings for quite a few years now, so I was worried that the brewpub might not live up to the quality of the beer. I am very happy to say that the staff delivered a very enjoyable experience. I recommend the Curmudgeon sandwich, and anything... More

Fantastic tap room space (admittedly it does get crowded) with outdoor seating as well, and continuing surprises beer wise on tap - you will definitely find something you like even if you're not a 'beer person' (and if you are, well this is a heavenly place), all very reasonably priced (especially for the quality of beer). Food is solid, though... More

The ticketed release of 2013 KBS was fast and seamless on Thursday, 28 March 2013. Of course we enjoyed a couple of beers before heading out, which were perfection. Our waitress was patient and helpful during the busy dinnertime rush hour.
