GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Longer nights, warmer days, and the smells of fresh and delicious food wafting from Riverside Park! These are the things that mark summer in Grand Rapids, and the food trucks that provide it each Friday are back.
That's right, the 7th season for Food Truck Fridays begins on Friday May 19, and there's plenty both familiar and new to take in! Starting with expanded hours, now open from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. each Friday for the next 16 weeks!
They are also partnering with 4 different non-profits from the community to sponsor the new weekly beer tent. In addition, the first 4 weeks will have craft cocktails provided from the Churchill Mobile Bar.
