Star Shooters Bar and Restaurant

Reviews & Tips

  This place is absolute trash. It's a hot spot for Ferris kids, but some of them look so young I wonder how they got in in the first place. Terrible music and the dance floor is either completely empty or filled with skeezy guys looking for some pretty young drunk to grab.
  
  The bar in the middle seems way too small considering how much business this place turns, and it's basically impossible to get a drink on weekends unless you haul your breasts up and over the bar and wave your dollars at a bartender like a crazy person trying to catch the last bus in existence.
  
  I will say that they have great drink specials sometimes, but that's the only redeeming factor and it's just not good enough for me to bring myself to award two stars. If you're looking to get trashed and you're pretty enough to catch the bartender's eye, knock your socks off at Shooters. If you're an average person who wants at least passable service and a semi-decent time out, take your business elsewhere. As my husband says, "Shooters is not where you make friends, it's where you make mistakes."

  I remember when this place opened... ( OK, I'm a townie and was only 12. But still...)
  
  Largest meat market north of Grand Rapids. Drunk 40 year old hicks hitting on college girls. Hip hop and country in the same DJ set. Watered down drinks unless you are part of the Big Rapids Bartender's Local 231.  My membership expired in 2001. *tear*
  
  Oh, and you can play pool while you watch college kids from the city get into fights with the locals over the aforementioned girls.
  
  They used to have decent food at lunch time but it slowly started tasting more and more like dog food.
  
  I stopped going there when I was back in town after I realized I didn't recognize anyone there anymore. I guess I'm old...

  College students love Shooters!  There aren't many places in Big Rapids where you can hang out and dance, but Shooters fits the bill.  Their food is pretty good, too.
