Decided to stop by for lunch, and super glad we did. It was so great to sit outside and enjoy the sun and nice weather. Pete's has a really nice patio space and it was full today: everyone wanted some sun. My wife and I both got the all you can eat fish... it was well prepared and great flavor; but my wife didn't even finish her first plate lol. It was really great but our only regret was forgetting to ask if she could've gotten the normal plate price. My son got the grilled cheese. Everything was good and solid portion sizes. It's a little bit longer wait for food and noticed that on my last visit too but didn't mind as much with being outside. Great service too, our gal outside was busy and we had some requests especially with our son but she was fairly quick and always friendly. Would definitely recommend especially with those sunny summer days coming soon! read more

We celebrated my SIL's birthday here and enjoyed the cozy vibe and friendly service, Hannah was great! The food was delicious but took 1.5 hours, and the cherry bleu wrap's tortilla felt a bit stale, delicious flavors, though! The loud football game in the bar area was a bit much. Prices were reasonable. We'll definitely try again on a quieter weekday. read more

Stopped in with my husband, parents and brothers family on Saturday. My husband got the turkey sandwich on the pretzel bun - he is obsessed with this sandwich. I got the chicken ranch wrap, it was very saugy. He kept ordering a large beer but the server was brining him a small one each time. My dad got the french dip with fries. My Mom got the taco salad - it was huge! My brother got the olive burger and said it was OK. I want to love Pete's but the service is always missing something. Hoping next time is better! read more

Delicious, juicy burgers and a great local gem. I love that they use Byron Center Meats. Everything we ordered was cooked just right and packed with flavor. Lots of options on the menu, plus friendly, welcoming service. Always a solid choice. read more

Pete's is great place to come for quality bar food and drinks! Plenty of space inside and on the patio.

Pete's is great, good food, good service, only problem you can find is that it's buuuusy during peak hours.

Food as always second to none! Our server, Caimon was phenomenal! On her game! Took care of a party of 10, everything came out on time, hot and correct! Our absolute go to place and we continue to take all of our friends there, maybe 309 different people to date, and every single one of them has become return customers! A special "Shout Out" to Pat Hilton for his recommendation and always making sure we are happy with our food, service and prices! read more

The food was great! Went here after a baseball game and were instantly greeted by a sweet guy named Trent, we left a review because he refused to take out cash on the way out for being kind. Pete's is great thank you for upholding a super nice community of people! read more

A real comfort food place close to home. Whether we're after a sandwich or Mexican food or a salad, Pete's can fill the bill. The Cobb Wrap with crispy chicken was excellent! My hubby loves the French dip. Staff is always friendly and efficient. read more

On the outside this place looks like every other building. However you step inside and it transforms into what feels like the inside of a large log cabin that someone has then transformed into a bar and dinning room. I loved the atmosphere. I ordered the Whiskey Tavern Burger ($15.50). This has bacon, haystack onions, Jack Daniels BBQ, and chipotle jack cheese. This burger was phenomenal. Melts in your mouth goodness. I devoured the burger and seriously considered ordering another. This burger has just cracked my Top 3 burgers in Grand Rapids. Perfectly cooked with the perfect toppings. The accompanying fries were good, just nothing special. The service was good and friendly. Overall a perfect 5 star review. Would I return? I'll be back very soon! read more

Took a while to get seated on a Saturday, even though there less than 10 table tops occupied. Service past that was good. The food was good. It was our first experience there and will definitely be back to try other options. read more

Been to Pete's a few times and they never disappoint. I've had the fish and chips, nachos and many others. Great food, nice beer choices, service always great .. even at slow times. Nice little small town tavern with clean, rustic interior. If I lived in Byron Center it would be my go to place. read more

Ive been here many times but this time was different i was here on a nice Thursday afternoon with my brother and it took 30 minutes to get a waiter and currently i still dont have one at this moment they walked passed us so many times and on this day it is not busy at all. read more

Pete's Grill & Tavern - No waiter - Pubs Near Me - Byron Center, Michigan

I love Pete's. We either go here or get takeout 2-3 times a month. The food is always fresh and you can tell it is homemade. Service is always great and super friendly too. We love sitting on the covered patio in the summer. They are great with kids too, our son loves when they drop off the kids menu and a little pack of scooby-snacks right when we are seated. read more

Great atmosphere and friendly service. Katie our server was fantastic. Low pressure on a Saturday night and made sure we did not leave thirsty. Excellent food and will for sure go back when in town. We had 14 people total and all went well. Thank you again read more

I absolutely love their deep dish pizza so greasy and delicious the food super good. This service is slow but understandable and the ambience inside is good. read more

I stopped in to order a pizza and dough balls for pick up. On a busy Saturday night, it only took them 25 minutes to fulfill my order. The staff was very friendly. Highly recommend it! read more

We ordered takeout from Pete's. I hadn't been since I was in high school so we figured we would give it a go. My husband got a Philly cheesesteak and an order of wings. He really enjoyed both. I got a chicken tender basket and that came with 3 huge tenders and fries. The fries were over done which was really disappointing. I would really like to give them another try so I can update my rating. read more

Pete's is a solid neighborhood bar! It's not quite a dive, but plenty of those vibes. If you're looking for a fairly no-frills strong drink, several beers on tap, or some sangria... they're your spot. They have a great variety of fried food, and they're always busy. Their chicken tendies and burgers are solid, as is their massive warm pretzel! Great spot in an area lacking good local bars and restaurants! read more

Picked out this place for girls night based on the reviews and it did not disappoint! I had the 84th Street Burger and it was delicious and cooked to perfection! The side of fries were hot and the right amount of crunchy. Our waitress was super kind and kept our drinks refilled while we waited for our food. Was a busy night but we were seated right away! Will be back to try more menu items! read more

Pete's Grill & Tavern - 84th Street Burger - Pubs Near Me - Byron Center, Michigan

Pete's is a BC local favorite, and it's easy to see why. Solid bar eats served up fast and comfy like. Burgers are the stars here. Half-pound patties sourced from a local beef supplier and grilled to your juicy liking. Pick one of Pete's menu combos or construct your own. I chose the hangover burger because I do adore a fried egg atop any burger of mine. Also came with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and--here's the namesake--bloody Mary flavored sauce. Flavors were great. I swapped out the fries for Pete's hand breaded onion rings; it was worth the extra $2. Washed it all down with a craft brew. Pete's has a dozen or so on tap--and a strong selection at that. Prices are reasonable. Servers are friendly and attentive. Locals love this place and you will too. read more

Great food and wonderful staff. Had that neighborhood vibe. Very friendly place . Would recommend.

First time here and it was wonderfully tasty! Staff was really nice too. I got the chicken sandwich. The chicken piece was SO big! The mayo sauce was really great too. Super messy, but definitely worth it. We also tried the pickle wrap appetizer and they were great, but very warm when they came out- be careful not to burn yourself. Mom got the chicken quesadilla and was also impressed with the large helping and the great flavor. read more

Pretty good bar food! Came here for the first time recently. The inside was rather dated and smelled like an old bar, but we came for the food! I got the cheesesteak and it was really cheesy and had a lot of beef. I wish there was more veggies, but can't complain. The fries were really average with no seasoning and little taste. My girlfriend got the Whiskey Tavern Burger. She thought it was really good as the burger meat is from the local butcher. Also, the barbecue sauce had good flavor. We tried the cheese curds, but they didn't impress me at all. Again, no flavor. They need to dress it up a bit. However, their ranch and marinara sauce ARE BOMB! We'd definitely come back, but maybe try their pizza next time. read more

Food okay. Service okay or a little slow today and not as attentive as I like. Looked like a large regular crowd. Too noisy for us.

My monday morning 12/2 golf ladies and I (12 of us) went to Pete's for our second time to have our Christmas shindig. It was great last time it was great this time. Service was excellent. I didn't hear anybody about their food. I adored my burger, which actually came medium rare. The server did A great job. Our server kept everything moving along. She said she enjoys our crazy group. a really nice time was had by all. (My burger was perfect med rare ) we will definitely go back. read more

Very disappointed today at lunch. Order a taco salad to go and I received a taco shell so the rest of my party got to finish their lunch while I was waiting for my taco salad to get filled up in the shell. We've had good experience at your location for quite a few years and we're looking forward to visiting since we have moved out of state not sure we're gonna make a trip back. The Jamison burger also wasn't quite what it used to be so sorry to see these things going downhill. read more

I wanted to try a local bar and this showed up on my Google search. It seemed to be a very homey spot in a good way. The staff was very nice and attentive. We got the tavern pickles with are fried pickles in egg roll wrap with ham and Swiss and they were really good! I would recommend trying them. We also got the Bleu cheese burger which was really really good and one of the best burgers my partner has ever had. The chicken tenders were amazing! If you are looking for the typical dry chicken tenders this is not the place to go. The chicken was so juicy and perfectly cooked. Probably one of the best chicken tenders I have ever had. I would highly recommend this place for something casual. They have really good food at a reasonable price. read more

The chicken tenders were nothing like we've had before! So flavorful and moist! & SO fresh! The chicken quesadilla wasn't my favorite, the chicken was different than the tenders. But we will be back for more tenders! Service was excellent even being there 2 hours before close. Our server Abigail was so kind & fast! read more

What a great little spot in Byron Center! I have always had great food when eating here. I have been coming to Pete's Tavern for a long time; since the 90's! The food is always great! I honestly cannot think of a single bad meal I have had from them. You can't go wrong with their burgers, which come from Byron Meats; or their wet burrito's! Our service has always been great! The only problem is the wait times.... sometimes you really have to wait a bit. However, the food is great and the drinks are good! I highly recommend this place! Will definitely be back! read more

Overall it was a great service. Sure one waitress/server would've been better than sharing 4. But the Whiskey Tavern burger was on point as usual! read more

Went for the first time a while ago. We were quickly seated and ordered, but food took about 45 minutes to get to us. Went around 1pm and probably 5 other tables were being used. Probably short-staffed. Good food otherwise! read more

we waited for the pizza 30 minutes after the order. I suspect the pizza sat for sometime to be delivered. it was just warm not hot. the waitress was supposed to bring cheese to shake on the pizza. she never returned to the table. this was 03:00 pm and they were not busy. I complained about pizza when she finally showed up after we had eaten. The pizza was not charged on the bill. we will not be back read more

Love supporting local businesses!! Ir was a fun bar with regular bar food. We enjoyed appetizers and drinks for happy hour and loved it all! See you again soon Pete's Grill & Tavern! read more

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!! Waited an hour for a cold burrito and a raw burger! Reason given, they were really busy! At least make sure the food is right! Waitress never even asked how our food was. Don't waste your time! $50 for crappy food cause they were busy???? read more

A little disappointed in our experience. We had heard wonderful things so maybe our hopes were a little high. Good drinks and the appetizer pretzel was very good, but the entrees were okay. Nice outdoor patio and our server was nice but a little disappointed in the wings. 7.1/10 :) read more

Pete's Grill & Tavern is part of the 4GR8Foods family, which includes Grand Coney, Rockwell/Republic, Omelette Shoppe, Sundance, Bagel Beanery, Red Geranium, Beltline Bar, and Noble, among a couple others. My personal favorites in this restaurant group are Grand Coney on Michigan, which I frequent at least 2x per month, and Rockwell. Each year they do a promotion where you can buy $50 in gift cards and you get five $10 off coupons for most of the restaurants in the group. We had one left over from last year, for Pete's Tavern. This place is not close to our house at all, but my boyfriend and I decided to make the drive on a Sunday to watch part of the Lions game and use our coupon. Pete's Grill & Tavern is a cozy, local, old-timey feeling sports bar in downtown Byron Center. The decor is really interesting with some very unique features built in to the walls (look up at the team lights). We snagged one of the last booths in the center of the room and were greeted right away. We decided to split an order of nachos to start - well, it ended up being our entire meal because the portion is huge! It definitely would be a good starter for a larger group. I am usually not a fan of nachos because there tends to be a large pile of "naked" chips without toppings towards the end... not these nachos! Every single chip had toppings - taco beef, shredded lettuce, tons of cheese, jalapeno, and taco sauce. So delicious! Certainly not health food, but nice for a treat. Our total for 2 pops and this massive plate of nachos was about $16. Would I come back again? Probably not regularly, just due to the location. However, if I lived in Byron Center, I'd be here every weekend. read more

Honestly, this place surprised me in a good way. From the outside, it doesn't look very exciting or inviting but once you walk in, you realize it's a traditional sports bar for everyone. Our service was very friendly and she took great care of our large group, including a few kids. We started with the Tavern Pickles which are egg rolls filled with pickles, ham, and cheese. They were very tasty and I couldn't even get a picture of all 6 of them. There were so many things on the menu that sounded great to me. I ultimately chose the Pretzel Turkey Club. I really enjoyed it but the pretzel was a little smaller than the portions of turkey (which is hard to complain about!). Overall, this is a great option that isn't very busy during peak times. Definitely worth trying! read more
