Raise a Glass to Flavor and Flight at Bell’s Tap and Table  

Whether you're flying in or heading out, there’s one place at the Gerald R. Ford International Airport where your taste buds can take off before your plane does: Bell’s Tap and Table. Located on Concourse B, this full-service restaurant is an extension of Bell’s Brewery, one of Michigan’s most beloved craft brewers and a pillar of the state’s iconic beer culture.

With Oktoberfest in the air and fall flavors taking over the tap lines, there’s never been a better time to pull up a chair, grab a pint, and dig into an unforgettable taste of West Michigan’s food and beer scene, without ever leaving the airport.

Here’s why Bell’s Tap and Table is the perfect preflight stop this season:

1. A True Taste of Michigan Craft Beer Heritage 

Bell’s Brewery has been brewing award-winning beer in Kalamazoo, Michigan, since 1985, and at Bell’s Tap and Table, travelers get to experience the magic right at the airport. This isn’t just a restaurant with a few local beers; it’s a full immersion into one of Michigan’s most iconic breweries.

Whether you're a long-time fan of Bell’s Two Hearted Ale, named one of the best beers in America, or you're looking to try something seasonal, like Bell’s Oberon Eclipse Raspberry Wheat, the tap list here showcases the best of the brewery’s portfolio. The rotating draft selection means there’s always something new and fresh to sample, and the knowledgeable staff is happy to guide you to your next favorite pour.

And if you’re flying out during the fall? You’re in luck. With the season in full swing, expect subtle notes of raspberry to complement the wheat malt, which pairs perfectly with cooler temperatures and hearty meals.

2. More Than Just a Meal, It’s a Flavor-Filled Sendoff 

Bell’s Tap and Table is more than just a place to grab a bite—it’s a proper sendoff (or welcome home) for anyone traveling through the Ford International Airport. The menu is thoughtfully crafted to reflect Bell’s roots: approachable, satisfying, and infused with Michigan pride.

Try the Bell’s Burger, featuring caramelized onions, Thousand Island sauce, and smashed patties, or opt for the Brewhouse Platter, served with smoked sausage, cheddar, slaw, BBQ sauce, and toast, a nod to German beer hall traditions that feels especially fitting in the fall.

In a rush? Grab a plate of Cheese Curds or the Chicken & Waffles for something warm and hearty before your flight.

3. Celebrate Oktoberfest, Airport Style 

Can’t make it to Munich? No problem. Bell’s Tap and Table brings the Oktoberfest spirit to GRR with a seasonal menu and festive pours designed to make your travel day a celebration.

Pair a stein of Oberon Eclipse Raspberry—an easy-drinking and refreshing beer—with traditional pub fare or modern Michigan comfort food. The restaurant’s warm woods, industrial accents, and welcoming staff make it easy to relax and toast to your next adventure.

Bell’s Tap and Table turns your preflight wait into a fall-themed beer garden experience. Lederhosen not required.

4. Your Gateway to Beer City, USA  

Grand Rapids is not called Beer City USA for nothing, and Bell’s Tap and Table gives travelers a taste of the city’s craft beer scene right inside the terminal. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a local Michigander heading home, there’s no better way to bookend your trip than by raising a glass of craft beer brewed right here in the state.

This fall, let Bell’s Tap and Table set the tone for your journey. Savor a sip of Michigan brewing history, indulge in hearty seasonal eats, and celebrate the season of hops and harvest.
