The 5 Top Pubs/Taverns Around Lansing

What the Business Says: Dagwood's Tavern & Grill has been a favorite of place in Lansing to get a bite to eat and enjoy a beer (or two) since the 1940's. In case you are interested, the building was built in 1901.

At this time, we do not have much information about the history of the building prior to 1946, but in 1946/47 an Oldsmobile Payroll Supervisor named Derwood Root decided to buy a bar on the corner of Kalamazoo and Howard streets. At that time, it was a local bar called "Nim's."

Derwood sold the bar in 1987 when he was 72. For the next 23 years, Dagwood's would be frequented by politicians, auto workers, athletes, locals, and VIP's. Dagwood's has always been a great place to get a bite to eat and a cold drink.

What the Business Says: Come to Art's Pub to sip on a 32-ounce Shooper of an old favorite, or try one of our new seasonal drafts. Then kick back and enjoy the atmosphere at our recently renovated bar. You can hit up the jukebox for some classic hits or watch the big game on one of our TVs.
