Mark Wrench has a fantastic shop. Excellent service and prices. Huge variety. Listens to what you have and is ready with brilliant suggestions. Not overbearing and pushy at all. Can't wait until our product arrives.

Had trouble with a grill and due to current labor and shipping, my replacement was not going to be available until next year. Fireplace and Grill Shoppe went out of their way to correct the situation and they now have a very happy and satisfied customer. Couldn't have asked for a better outcome or business to work with. Thank you Fireplace and Grill Shoppe.

Spoke with Mark. Very impressed. He had me send him photos of our Mid Century Modern fireplace. We thoroughly discussed options for doors but ended up talking about no doors at all. Im impressed that he suggested a solution that didnt include him selling me something. He wanted what was best for our home regardless of making a buck. I will do everything I can to recommend this business to repay Marks suggestions. Professional, honest, and great taste! Thank you!

What a great business!! They are always very friendly and helpful. They have a deal going on right now until March 3. If you have any fireplace or grilling needs I recommend checking them out. They are in the middle of a renovation but that does not interfere with their customer service at all. Great, knowledgeable, friendly people.

So my husband and I were looking for a good grill and a good company to deal with so we decided to go to Kalamazoo grill shop about a week ago Saturday, we drove by many big box stores that sell grills and we bought a high end grill with Mark got it home by the time we noticed Saturday afternoon after they were closed one of the grills grates you cook on and did not match the others and we were missing a cotter pin. Call Mark Monday texted the pictures that he asked for and we also requested we wanted to purchase a smoker box for that grill he asked when we can be there since we work all week we
