Meanwhile Bar, Inc.

"Everyone working here is so friendly, and the crowd they draw in is mostly the same. I only wish they weren't sooooo popular sometimes because it becomes an early bird gets the seat situation. Also pinball, that's really cool"

"Staff made me feel so uncomfortable. Atmosphere was very unwelcoming for a first time visit. I wouldn't go back if it wasnt for the awesome art everywhere. Music is too loud to want to talk to strangers for a little fun. I was nothing but friendly and observant while enjoying a couple drinks. Still, i get followed to the bathroom by employees just for them to look like fools while im washing my hands. Surely left after that stunt. Please have an older, wiser server on staff to show the kids how to make people feel welcomed from the get go. Awesome bar, poor staff. I enjoyed myself regardless and had a good experience in my own way. Thank you. Good luck."

"It was a great time visiting The Meanwhile! Loved the pinball machines!"

"Dive bar with Michigan beers only $3 on Thursdays. I might just make a stop here every week :) Brunette bartender, you know who you are! You are awesome! Never had a wait and you're super friendly :)"

"So glad (and lucky) to have discovered this gem. Terrific drink selection. Friendly staff. Awesome vibe. Amamzing (quirky) Art! All this for a seemingly inconspicuous dive. Pretty busy late night, young crowd. It's the perfect kind of weird. Would return to Grand Rapids just to visit this bar again. Buy yourself a t-shirt!.. And, a screen printed poster, while you're at it."
