Discover.Eat.Enjoy
FoodieGR was created with a simple mission: to support and celebrate the local dining and drinking scene in West Michigan. What began as a passion project sharing food experiences on social media has grown into a trusted brand with a strong community of food lovers. Over the years, we’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with national and regional brands such as McDonald’s, Instacart, Meijer, Wahlburgers, and many more.
As we connected with restaurant owners, one thing became clear — there was a consistent need for a high-quality food magazine in West Michigan. Many publications would launch, but few would last. That’s why we decided to create something different: a premium annual guide dedicated to showcasing the best food and drink in our region.
Today, the FoodieGR Annual Guide has become one of the most popular publications in West Michigan. Locals and tourists alike use it to discover new restaurants, hidden gems, and unique places to enjoy a great meal or drink — and here is a great opportunity for owners in the food and beverage industry to reach thousands of readers, along with hundreds of thousands of people who visit our social media pages and online publication.
