Black-Owned Restaurants in Grand Rapids You Can Support

A lot is happening in our world right now and if you want to do your part to help out the Black community, that doesn't involve protesting, consider supporting our locally owned Black businesses.

First off, this isn't saying don't go to any of the other several great establishments in Grand Rapids but right now the country is fighting for equality for our Black neighbors and we can be a part of that change by helping elevate their voices, their work, and in this case... their food.

Secondly, this could be an opportunity to try out some new restaurants in Grand Rapids you haven't gotten around to yet. There's even a chance some places on this list you've already been to and probably had no idea it was Black-owned.

If there's any restaurants not on the list, please reach out so we can add it on here!
