14 Best Bar & Grill near Norton Shores

“If you are looking for a place to stop that has great staff, friendly regulars, and amazing food-- this is the stop for you! Family owned bar with that hometown feel. It is cash only, but there is an ATM on site! I 100% recommend checking this place out!“

“I've been to this restaurant 5 times. Had good meals and very disappointing meals. Ordered the clam basket once and only got 5 tiny strips of clam. The mushroom and Swiss burger I had today was alright, but the bun was soggy. The "award winning" potato soup was just ok and obviously reheated, not fresh. These are only my opinions, locals just love this place. Our waitress was very friendly.“

“Stan's took me back to my childhood. Love the atmosphere of the place. The craft beers on tap are great. Linda was stellar - she's friendly and never let my glass go dry. I will be back! Returned twice, this time with our son. We really enjoyed our lunch here.“

“I'd heard this was a good place and the reviews were good, so we decided to check it out. I would describe the atmosphere as 'dive bar', but in a good way. Not too big inside and all of the customers were enjoying themselves. Seemed like everyone felt 'at home'. Everything was clean, Service was great. Ordered a Build Your Own Burger... was pleasantly surprised that it was one of the best burgers around! Great Food, Cold Beer, and Good Prices - what more could you ask for?!“

“So my buddy and I grabbed lunch at Sporty’s Bar and it was good. Living here for almost 50 years I had not been here before but knowing that Jim is managing/owner now I wanted to try it out. We had burgers, fries, and ice cold beers. Although they can’t cook the burger to order (I like medium rare), the burger was still juicy and not overcooked. Atmosphere was very nice, not what I expected. Cool bar and clean. Bartender was great too and other diners were pleasant.“

“Partner and I love Don Luis and visit at least once a quarter. The restaurant is open "late" compared to the rest of Grand Haven, which is so nice as we typically eat later evening. I appreciate not feeling like we're bothering the staff and keeping them. Service: Always top notch. They are efficient with serving the food, refilling drinks, and bring chips and salsa nearly as soon as you sit down. Food: I've tried quite a few things here and loved it all. The food I got most recently was a type of taco that you dip. The flavor was beyond amazing, though it definitely had a little kick to it. (I do not do spicy food, but the server said it wasn't spicy. If you're like me, it is a bit spicy). Ambiance: They have fun booths and decorations around the restaurant and always have upbeat Mexican music playing. It's usually somewhat busy, but as we go during off hours, never too full. And, we've never had to wait to be seated, which we really like.“

“We go over to Canary when my sister comes into town because they love to play Keno and they don't have Keno in their state. Canary welcomes my sister and her wife by name and knows what they drink and they're from out of town. Now I call that Customer Service! Canary has always been a favorite of mine but I have recently moved back to Muskegon after growing up here. But my family and myself, always visited on holidays and my family are big on going out, having fun and celebrating, which includes drinking and playing Keno! Most of the family likes gambling in all forms, I'm just not one of them! Not even all that into Keno...might be because I don't usually win and the other family members are so darn lucky!Now about the food on that given day...usually I don't have any complaints, but the onion rings were way too deep fried and I wanted a very rare burger. I'm a 'purist', just a burger with a touch of salt and pepper with a bun, nothing else. And I want the meat very, very, very, very rare! Just lightly heated on both sides. I took my burger to go, otherwise I would have sent it back and that would have probably been the only second time, in my 66 years, I have ever sent food back! Not to Canary, to anywhere! But the meat was medium and I didn't want it, I don't eat by taste, I eat by the way it feels in my mouth so that's why I like a rare burger. So besides the food, everything else was fun and we had a great time and get the tater tots, one of the best foods I felt in my mouth and the others at the table thought they were delicious! Lol“

“Best Pub and Grill around. Karaoke, dance, food and great bartender.“

“I was just in there with my children. They are VERY kid friendly and had toys and candy for them free. Very friendly staff the I met one of the owners. Very nice guy. I would definitely come here again and recommend this place to anybody. Great prices as well. Great food. Positive enjoyable “

“My husband and I have lived in North Muskegon on Bear Lake all our lives and BLT was a staple for our families. However, had not been back for many years after bad experiences with new ownership. Now that’s it changed hands again we decided to try it. Service was phenomenal, food was great!! Planning on going back next week!!!“

“Waitress/bartender did an awesome job. Considering she was taking care of everyone in the place she didn't miss a beat.The food was ok. The wet burrito was subpar with the sauce tasting exceptionally bad. Tasted like beef broth with an attempt to season it with taco seasoning. The burger was delicious as was the steak fries. The perch was ok. It had bones in it and it was ocean perch, not the delicious lake perch. Price reflects choice of perch but never stated it may contain bones.Atmosphere was as expected. The music bingo was fun and unexpected. We intend to come back to eat and play bingo again. Just won't order a wet burrito or ocean perch again.“

“Great place to go with friends. Wonderful lively atmosphere, great food, plenty of drink offerings. It's always busy but the servers are on the ball. You'll find locals and tourists. They have a reputation to maintain and they work to keep it.“

“Food was great, atmosphere great, service great!! Great place for our date night!! Crystal was so nice and accommodating!! Sweet and considerate!! We will be back!! Only downfall, weed smell, but that’s the new world.“

“Great atmosphere for hanging with friends and family, while grabbing a burger, over the top tater tots, and don't miss the bloody mary bar, all while you watch your favorite sport, shoot darts, or try your luck with the lottery...the staff are awesome!“
