09/15/2026

The best Friday nights don’t involve figuring out what to make for dinner.

They involve heading downtown, listening to live music and letting somebody else do the cooking.

On Friday, September 18, D's 313 Detroit Style Coney Island
will be serving food at Friday Nite Beats & Bites at Festival Market Square in Downtown Battle Creek from 6–9 PM.

And they’ve got some seriously affordable options:

Coney Dogs $5
Loose Burgers $7
Fries $3
Cheese Fries $4
Chili Fries $5
Chili Cheese Fries $6

Want more? Add cheese for $1, extra onion for 50 cents or heavy chili for $1.50.

Wash it down with $2 pop or $1 water.

Plus, you’ve got live music and artisan vendors to enjoy while you’re there.

So skip the kitchen on September 18.

Come hungry. Come listen to some music. Come shop. Come hang out.
