Piper outranks other local restaurants because of its innovative menu (pizzas with interesting toppings, main dishes with unusual sides, great desserts), its willingness to adapt items and cook to order, its Lake Macatawa views. Dress code ranges from casual to business casual. Staff is well-trained, and even if you get a "newby," you can count on the manager to make... More

My boyfriend and I arrived in Holland, MI 20 minutes before our supposed dinner cruise was suppose to takeoff and learned that the dinner cruise was cancelled. We had just driven almost 3 hours from Chicago to make the cruise. After getting over the shock of the cancellation without notice, we asked if they could point us to a nice... More

Love this place. Great waterfront view and the best vegetarian options (and meat, too:) in the area.

The service was good, but the food was not fresh and overally salted! The mussels were a huge disappointment! The only thing worth eating were the scallops. We will not be eating here again!

The docks were lit in preparation for Valentine's Day -- red hearts! We had a wonderful meal - the soup of the day was absolutely delicious, and we enjoyed it with the warm rolls. Michigan beers are always available. We ordered "Hog Wild" pizzas -- pulled pork, sweet red onions, bbq sauce, and more...they were delicious! We ended the evening... More

This used to be a snooty place that we didn't care to visit, but it has changed to become more friendly. We opted for pizza this time around, and were delighted with the unusual topping selections. Throw in a glass of wine and a peaceful atmosphere, and you have a pizza dining experience that is unusual these days.

We went to The Piper recently for a family celebration and had a great time. We have visited there several times over the years but are not regular patrons. However, once again the food, service and atmosphere were wonderful. It remains one of the best restaurants in Holland and the lakeshore area. Highly recommended.

The waitress spilled water just next to and almost on my husband - a near miss. Really that was no great deal and did not make for a bad experience but was compounded by....Our waitress asking if we would like a refill on drinks and then forgetting to bring them, offering a refill on coffee and forgetting to bring it,...
