The Sovengard is my new favorite place in Grand Rapids, partly becuase I helped build it!
Their food is VERY farm to table and hyper local ingredients are used. They also have a variety of vegetarian and vegan choices on their menu.
They have 20 beers on tap, many more in bottles, both local and others from around the country, and the wines and liquors are predominantly local as well.
The beer garden should be finished in Mid to Late September!
