What customers say?

“ Definitely going to be my new hang out spot this summer. It was my first time visiting with some friends attending a wine tasting and I had a blast. The people doing the tasting with inviting and knowledgeable, the staff was attentive and friendly and management was so welcoming. The food served with the wine was delicious! Can’t wait for the rooftop to open in April! ”

“ We've visited Mertens Rooftop before, but had the unique privilege of visiting today with no other patrons. The views and summer breeze are second to none in GR, an excellent experience. We have not tried the food, so we cannot comment on that yet. If Mertens proper is any indication though, it's likely awesome. While a bit on the pricey side, the spritzers are unique around here, so it's fun to try the different flavors. The service was good, even with a trainee on her first day, we were impressed by the speed and attention. ”

“ Mikkel, Aiden, and Gabby were super friendly and outgoing. Very cool vibe at the rooftop bar. Awesome views. But the staff really made this experience. Very nice to have outgoing workers in a day and age where you don’t get that much anymore. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you haven’t. ”

“ We came in to have some drinks and to enjoy the roof-top view but sadly it was closed for a private event. We ended up being seated in the main floor area. The history of the building and the setup are pretty cool. Drinks are tasty and strong! We paired our drinks with 2 different kinds of poutines, they offer 4, and nothing special, but can’t beat having some good fries with toppings. ”

“ This amazing restaurant is located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The food was amazing. The service was amazing. I give this restaurant a five stars! (I don’t give a five star review often). The manager Laura went above and beyond expectations. I would go back to Martens rooftop just for her service alone! Don’t miss this beautiful venue. I will be back and have told many people of this fine dining restaurant! ”

“ The glazed pork belly was piping hot and absolutely delicious melt in your mouth. Their Goat cheese salad is sooo yummy. Our server was attentive and the atmosphere was absolutely gorgeous. We definitely enjoyed our elevated dining experience. 10/10 we will be returning ”

“ I didn’t eat (there’s an abbreviated menu on the rooftop from the main restaurant on the ground floor I’m told) but service is friendly and it’s a novelty to have a cool view of the city skyline. It isn’t very big so be prepared to stand or be turned away on some occasions. Prices are a bit higher (~$10 for a 16oz can of Pilsner Urquell) but that’s an expected and acceptable tax for the view IMO. It can be quite lovely up there. ”
