J Gardellas Tavern

Gardellas is definitely one of my favorite bars within Grand Rapids. There is never a cover charge , it has 3 levels to it, and each level has a different bar/vibe! It's like 3 bars in one! ????

Get your standard, easy to make drinks. Jack and coke etc... Don't try to be fancy with your cocktails the bartenders aren't trained well enough to make a simple manhattan .

Watch the steps, know at least three people who have fallen and I am one of them. Check out the back steps...tool a chunk out of them. :-)

Great vibe, awesome drinks, and good food. Also, NO COVER. This is my favorite bar in town .

If you like sweet tastes , get the lesbian kickboxer . The other tip is 100% right...it's liquid candy

The very best pulled potk BBQ I have had in years! Wow! Tasty and a nice large portion !

Always a good crowd here and excellent bartenders .

If you are hungry, try the Pulled Pork sandwich ... You won't be disappointed.

During the week, its a chill place to have a few (very strong!) drinks. Plus, free peanuts , unlike SOME bars (ahem, Founders, I'm lookin at you)

Menu was sticky and had bits of food all over its, beers good thank Satan

Wednesday's starting at 5 are the best. Half off food and drink until 11.

Great service, especially when you're with someone who knows everyone!

Try arm wrestling the homeless man out front - watch out for the hepatitis!!

Nice and Cozy . Great Staff .

$1 Shots & $1 Tacos on Monday!1/2 off Drinks on Wednesday!Love Gardella's for good music and cheap drinks - no cover on the weekends!

Order a Cool Kid from the bartender that looks like Inara from Firefly!

Great bar with grwat service and tenders

Order a one-legged lesbian kickboxer . Tastes like candy but will get you drunk soooo fast. My personal fave

Try the white cheese sandwich it may change your life

Ask for Courtney. She is the baddest ass bitch around. And she is hot :-)

Like your beer in a mason jar ? This is your kind of place then.

$4 Summer Shandy special! Love this place!

Be sure to try their Art of the Cocktail entry!

Meat eaters will even love the garden burger no nasty vegan compromises

Try the house specialty drink ...the One Legged Lesbian Kick Boxer it's amazing!

Amy is the best bartender !

Finish your drink before you go smoke!

good food build your own burgers , cheep drink awsome!

Perfect place for sweaty dude on dude action.

Steph is the best bartender . Hands down!

Great atmosphere and food!

Go less then a half block over to a better bar (Hopcat) for better drinks and less douche bag guys.

See Taylor for a shot of Swedish Fish

Tried the veggie burger . It isn't black bean like they say and it tastes like a morning star patty. Skip it.

Wednesday night half off appetizers and drinks

Back table. Best drunkenness.

Crowded AF. But still fun.

Belligerent overdressed girls & blood on the floor? You must be in the basement !

Tay is the man !

Watch out for Emily lexie and becca

Great food and service (:

Saturdays r better then fridays!

Fall asleep in a bar stool and get dicks drawn on you.

Wednesday night half off drinks yeah!

Worst bar and service in GR hands down... But hey its half off on wednesdays

The upstairs bar kinda smells like an airport bathroom

Green Beer Bitches!!

I will never go back here.

This place about to blow.

Service sucks.just sayin.
