After a long winter of staying inside in West Michigan, you’re sure to be itching to get moving. Gimme’s Par and Grill — Grand Rapids’ newest elevated destination for dining, cocktails, and game night — offers the perfect opportunity for an upscale guys’ night out!

Gimme’s is centrally located in downtown Grand Rapids on the corner of Ottawa and Louis St. and offers a new interactive experience that’s a great choice for guys night out, family nights or anyone in between.

If you’re sick of the same couch-hang scene night after night, get the guys together and book a golf simulator where you can get in on the action. With three floors, nine golf bays and a full restaurant and bar, there’s plenty of space to get moving at Gimme’s. While a golf simulator spot might evoke visions of frozen bar food and dark interiors, Gimme’s is bright, modern and elevated. With warm wood, sleek countertops, and a greenery wall, Gimme’s feels more like an upscale club than a hang at your friend’s garage.

Sam Stover, Managing Partner at Gimme’s and past golf pro, emphasized this was intentional. “I wanted to enhance the experience and service. We’re a full restaurant and not just entertainment that serves food.”

At each golf bay, you’ll find large simulator screens, bookable for smaller friend get-togethers or bigger events. Book a bay by the hour, for anywhere from one to six hours. Guests can book up to 10 days in advance to secure their spot. Gimme’s also offers golf leagues to get you committed to getting out of the house and anticipates hosting events to get the community together for March Madness, The Masters and more.

With their Trackman app and TruGolf technology, you can feel like you’re on the course, with unmatched accuracy and realistic gameplay, while improving your skills. There are over 350 golf courses from around the world to play on, so each time you visit can be a new experience.

If golf isn’t your game of choice, Gimme’s offers a variety of simulator skill games, including Bowl-A-Rama, Slapshot Hockey, Breakaway Soccer and even Zombie Dodgeball or Corn Hole.

When you work up an appetite, try Gimme’s fresh American brunch or dinner menu, with options from Hanger Steak, Potato “Golf Balls,” Brunch Burritos or Bruschetta Boards with topping options of Smoked Salmon, Blue Cheese & Olive, California, or Chef’s Choice. Drinks include Bloody Mary’s, local craft and domestic beers, and a full cocktail menu. Happy hour tees off at “Early Birdie” hours, Sunday – Friday 2 – 6 p.m.
