The "Cheers" of Grand Haven. Small bar - usually crowed at dinner time. If you like perch, the "Perch basket" is the way to go. There is also J-Dubs Market & Wine shop attached with a great selection of wine, cheeses and snacks.

"You haven't visted Grand Haven until you've sunk your teeth into a Pronto Pup". We've been going here for 20 years and the recipe hasn't changed. It is worth the wait in line as the young adults in the "hot box" are super friendly even in the hot & humid summer months. CASH ONLY
