    Favorite dive. Everything I want out of a local bar: dark lighting, cheap grub, good happy hour specials, and fun roster of weekly events.

    I went for olive burger special Wednesday and the burger was something like $3.

    Take a break from the normalcy of Ionia Ave. and head east to Pickwick…read more On first visit, the place may seem a little unwelcoming to the naked eye. Walking into a dark, quiet bar with a meager ten people inside is not the most inviting situation; but after settling in you wish you would have never doubted the place. The walls are adorned with 50s beer memorabilia, making the bar feel like a basement rumpus room more than anything else. I like to examine the muted floor tiles; classic linoleum squares in working-class hues of green, red, and black. The music is set to a regular volume, allowing free conversation between you and your compatriots. The bar is well-regarded as owning the cleanest taps in Grand Rapids. Usually the only three beers on tap are Killians Irish Red, Sierra Nevada, and Fosters; they are the best tastes of said beers I have ever had. And the price is right, as well. For a stop after dinner or after work, come here.

    Pickwick Tavern is by far my favorite bar in GR. It's a dive bar to the max, and has the old-school…read morebar feel. The owner (who is typically behind the bar) almost always strikes up a conversation, and I've never left without meeting someone new! It's cash only, which although slightly inconvenient, really adds to the vibe. (I believe they have an ATM but don't quote me). They have some packaged snacks, like bags of chips or pretzels, but no other food. It's the perfect place to stop in, grab a beer, and go back in time for a little while!

We were seated right away and our server was super helpful and had great recommendations. The menu is huge and everything sounded really good. They feature some things that you don't see elsewhere in town, like the Cudighi, which is a Yooper classic! Nate ordered that and I got the firecracker salmon bowl. I really enjoyed the food - the salmon bowl was a good portion and very fresh. I liked the veggies and the flavor was Asian-inspired. The Cudighi sandwich is basically a pizza sub with a spicy sausage patty that's been baked in mustard. It's unique and interesting, and Nate enjoyed it. We don't get to the NW side of town that often, but I would make a special trip to visit Roasted again. They have weekly specials and features, and a Saturday prime rib dinner!

Most of all, we appreciated the hospitality and the fact that the food was good despite the Saturday rush. Note: waited 25 mins for our App like orders, which we thought was a bit long but it for mostly fried food in my own opinion!! The patio area is so cute also even though we didn't get to experience it!
