Top Shelf Pizza opens downtown Muskegon location with Founders Tap Takeover
Written by Dan VanderKooi
Downtown Muskegon has more than just beer to offer; it now has pizza as well. Whistle Punk has made the rounds with a mobile wood fire oven both outside Pigeon Hill Brewing Company and at the downtown Farmer’s Market and has proven successful enough to move into a permanent location next door to the owner’s other successful Third St. restaurant, Mia & Grace. Rebel Pies has also offered up their own unique brand of specialty pizzas featuring quality ingredients to complement Unruly Brewing Company. Top Shelf Pizza is the latest pizza maker to enter the downtown scene, joining the same building as Pigeon Hill and offering classic made-from-scratch style pizzas with traditional ingredients as well as a full bar featuring quality craft beer, wine, & spirits.

The Tin Can Bar Opens Downtown Grand Rapids Location
Written by Dan VanderKooi
Tin Can Bar has pretty simple concept: “Cans are King!” - Don’t expect to find your favorite beer on draft or in bottle here because you won’t find it. All the Tin Can Bar features are cans, and lots of them. The concept has proven successful in Lansing with 3 different locations and now Tin Can has opened a 4th location on Grandville Ave SW in downtown Grand Rapids across from the Intersection concert venue and just down the road from Founders Taproom. I recently paid a visit to see what Tin Can Bar has to offer.
