Great news, brunch lovers! A breakfast and lunch chain is expanding with a new location in the Grand Rapids area.

Not too long ago we told you that Stan's Tacos in Standale would be permanently closing. The restaurant's last day in business was April 1. It was the last Stan's Tacos in our area, as the location downtown Grand Rapids and the one in Grand Haven had already shuttered. While it's always sad to see a restaurant close, at least it won't be sitting empty!
