The Union Cabaret & Grille
125 S. Kalamazoo Mall
Kalamazoo, MI, 49007
(269)384-6756

This casual downtown Kalamazoo hotspot has a partnership with the local Western Michigan University, more than half the entertainment is provided by WMU students, faculty, or alumni. TAn abundant array of Western photos, old and new, are displayed around the restaurant, and the original artwork is always provided by Western’s College of Fine Arts. All that is true of a college “hang-out” can be said of the Union: the electricity in the air that can only be found in a college town, the feeling of camaraderie between tables seated in the dining room.

The bar divides the dining room in half, and the crescent curvature provides the perfect seat from which to take in the jazz trio or 12 piece big band onstage. A low-sitting contrast to the bar is the cushy stage tables that surround the raised performance area. The Union offers a full bar and twelve beers on tap.
