The Pyramid Scheme

Coming here, drinking a couple beers and playing some pinball is my favorite way to forget my troubles in GR. Also has the best variety of live music in town . Some truly great bands come through here.

Great spot, better people. The venue director is the greatest person you'll ever meet. If you don't fall in love instantly, there's a hundred dollar bill here with your name on it...gosh... :)

One of the best venues in town ! Check out a show here; you're bound to have a great time. Big selection of Shorts beers .

If you ever have the chance, check out anything French director Rene Laloux has to offer. Time Masters is pretty cool, but I strongly recommend Fantastic Planet. It's a really good film .

my second home. Great music , beer , and pinball machines ! Employees are some of the nicest around.

Just popped in one afternoon to play the pin ball machines. Nice selection and decent beers too.

Also a cool place to hang out at. Inexpensive shows and good craft beer . They have ping pong ????

One of the go to venues of downtown. Won't know what it's about until you get here.

The drinks are rather pricey , but there always something going on here. I like to come here just to find out what's going on in town .

Awesome pinball , awesome beer , friendly/helpful staff & a great concert venue !

Great spot- killer collection of pinball machines and solid beer on tap - heaven!

New season of the pinball league starts in April. If you want in look up grand rapids pinball league on Facebook

My first time here was for The Guttermouth show April 1. What a Great experiece. Show rocked...@ So did the venue.

Great venue! An email list worth signing up for so you don't miss what bands are playing when!

Let the owner play songs on the jukebox , trust me I'm a jukebox junkie. Its a pleasant surprise

Vault of Midnight Game Day. We're playing Poo: The card game.

Great dive bar plus pinball ! Win win.

Great spot with a great selection. Check-in and get 1/2 your first drink !

Rebirth brass band from new Orleans Holy shit. Awesome!! Thank you CJ for the concert gift !!! Makes us miss nola like the dikins!!3

Jeremy is great at manning the glory hole. If you have $5. In quarters

Saw a pretty terrible slam poet here, but it's still a great bar & venue. #TotallyPat'sFault

I saw a concert in the back area and actually had to leave because it got so loud . the music got so distorted. i had to cover my ears - they hurt despite plugs. not a good value . others left too.

If you order from stellas remember its vegitarian. I recommend Peppino's take out right down the street on Ions Ave.

Check in and get half off your first drink :)

1/2 off first drink 1st time you check in :)

4-8 half off shorts beer . Over 10 to choose from. Solid.

No food served but Stella’s, a local restaurant featuring vegetarian and regular bar food, delivers free to the door!! Read more

Great on 80s night.

so many activities and beer

Bring back the shorts anniversary ale ! Ask the bartender for it and be very disappointed if they are out.

Ask for Jeremy. Just the tip.

The front bar is always free. Only a cover to get into the venue. So drink here, 'cause its not overpriced and it's sweet.

Just fyi they don't take amex always bring some cash

Love the atmosphere here
