Vander Mill Grand Rapids

We have really taken a shine to ciders in the past year, and Vander Mill is a big reason why.

We have eaten meals there twice now, and both times, the food was extraordinary.

The cheese and crackers plate was a little sparse on the bread and crackers, but other than that... delicious eats.

Staff were very attentive and helpful, loved being able to see the selection of ciders and pick from there. Our server even offered suggestions based off others we knew we liked. The outside seating is so nice to have.

Fun space ~inside and out. I had a flight of 5 providing me with a splendid opportunity of variety. The chicken app, bean avocado ????, and pretzel bites were yummy ????. Nice flavor and variety ~ perfect to share and for a light meal.

Staff seems happy and accommodating ????????????

I love the food there. I just had the Apple salad and it was amazing. They always have new and different selection. I also love their cider selection. They're b&d is a favorite as well as the oak barrel aged Perry

The star rating and the review are both for the food, not the cider (which we did not partake in). My husband and I went here the other night and our meal was mediocre. The shining star of the food was the fried cheese curds. They were seasoned really well and the sauce served with them was loaded with flavor. The main courses, however, were another story. My husband's ribeye was covered in what he thought was A1 sauce, and that really turned him off. My meal was the fish and chips. The fish was barely breaded (which was fine) and lacked any sort of seasoning. I was hoping the house made tartar sauce would make up for it with a nice tang. It did not. The fries had a good garlicky taste, but reminded me of the fries you'd get at Burger King in terms of texture. The meal also came with fried pickle chips. I was a bit taken aback when I realized they were sweet pickles, but after a few I really enjoyed them.

The service itself was alright. The waitress was nice and returned quickly for extra items, but the food itself took awhile to come out.

So overall, not the best, not the worst.
