Clare and Sreten's favorite bar/restaurant/club in Grand Rapids! Unique vibes, excellent burgers, the best fries, endless whiskey... what else could you possibly need?!
A Carlson favorite park if you need some fresh air and a nice hike! It is also where Clare and Sreten took engagement photos :)
An iconic brewery in Grand Rapids with excellent beer, plenty of seating and oftentimes live music!
Another iconic spot in Grand Rapids! Enjoy beautiful gardens and sculptures throughout the grounds. Our favorite is the Richard and Helen DeVos Japanese Garden :)
If you haven't seen Ada in a few years (or ever), this is a must! Grab a nice brunch at Mudpenny followed by local shopping and a nice walk along the river and over the historic Ada Covered Bridge!
If you're looking for a fancy place to eat, this is it! Located at the top of the Amway Grand, you get a gorgeous view of the city. The food experience is also fantastic - delicious Spanish cuisine with fun cocktails and dessert! This one of our "special occasion" spots.
If you're a soccer fanatic like us and want to catch a game, this is the spot!
