GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — The iconic Nick Fink’s is set to reopen in Comstock Park.

Nick Fink’s, located at 3965 W River Drive NE near Lamoreaux Drive in Plainfield Township, claims the title as the oldest bar in the Grand Rapids area, the Gilmore Collection said in a Thursday release.

It first opened in 1888, and is now set to reopen on Sept. 23.

“We are thrilled to reopen Nick Fink’s and welcome back the community to this historic gem,” John F. Gilmore said in the release. “Our goal remains to preserve the essence of what makes Nick Fink’s special while creating a relaxed and welcoming space where people can grab a beer after work or enjoy a great meal while watching the football game on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.”

He added that the bar has been the community’s “low-key spot” to unwind.

“We’re so happy to be back,” he said.
