About Billy's:

We are located in the heart of Eastown at 1437 Wealthy, Grand Rapids, MI. This building has had a long history with many different owner's and many different names, but has always been known as one of Grand Rapids favorite watering holes.

From the moment you walk in you will be warmed by the look and feel of our retro bar, which offers a feeling reminiscent of Chicago bars and speak-easies. The fun-loving, energetic staff tops off your experience by providing you with some of the best drinks and service in Grand Rapids.

Billy's carries on the tradition of bringing only the best live entertainment to Grand Rapids. Every night is filled with an eclectic mix of live music ranging anywhere from open mic nights to jazz, R&B, rock, funk, folk, and reggae. Billy's also has both a 70's and 80's DJ night filled with the best songs of those eras. We are proud to be Grand Rapids premier home of the blues every Friday and Saturday night. The best blues you can dance to in the state.
