Grand 275
Hmm, grand may be a bit of a stretch, as the only thing truly “grand” about this old-school establishment is well, umm…nothing. Sure, this classic local watering hole has a decent (and cheap!) beer selection (happy hour’s from 3pm–7pm), boasts friendly bartenders, and serves up some respectable pub grub (including Sunday brunch, featuring unlimited champagne) to a mixture of welcoming neighborhood types, most of whom pledge their allegiance to the AARP. But all the “charm” of pressed-tin ceilings and wood paneling in the world fails to mask the 146 years’ worth of dirt and grime coating every surface. But hey, if you don’t skeeve easily, then by all means, have a grand ol’ time.

Grand is All in the Attitude

I have to TOTALLY disagree with the previous reviewers remark. First, let's start off with the term "GRAND", the reason it is called Grand is not because the owners find their establishment to be grand, it's their location 275 Grand Avenue - hence the term grand in their title.

Their prices are reasonable, their food better than average and their neighborhood charm has kept me coming back there since the start of their business. They are a neighborhood establishment that caters from the PRATT students all the way up to - as the previous reviewer noted - AARP crowd, as well as the local artist, the gay and lesbian community as well as the stay at home mom/dad crowd. I am glad to have an establishment like this in our neighborhood. It is charming, sweet and comfortable. I am proud of Carmen and Mark and the business that they built. I hope they are around for years to come. And if you are bold enough to submit such a review, be bold enough to stand by your comment by putting your name.
