I truly appreciate the energy of the owner, and the bartender Christine, and Alejandro. I have never felt more safe in my entire life. They truly care about the reputation of their establishment and the safety of their patrons. I will always recommend this place a millions times over, every single time I’m in the city. Truly a hidden gem that shouldn’t be hidden. 100/10. If I could rate this place a million times over I would give it 100/10 every single time.

Nice bar. Great live music. Place was busy, but good service and drinks. Staff is very friendly too. Good place to hangout with friends. I recommend this place if you like a local live music.

An absolute Detroit gem. The vibe is unmatched, authentic, laid back, and full of character. The owner is a true Detroit legend, and it shows in every detail of the place. The grilled cheese is seriously next level, the drinks are strong and fun, and everyone you meet there is friendly and welcoming. Whether you’re visiting the city or lucky enough to live nearby, this is one of those spots you just have to experience. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a local, even if it’s your first time in.

Fantastic atmosphere, best grilled cheese I’ve ever had, and live music with outdoor seating.
Make sure to give a fist bump to my man Charles. He did a fantastic job of keeping me safe from all the ladies who thought he was cooler than me including my wife.

Quite the late-night place to be (in downtown Detroit); great live music; big energy big crowd turn out; nice touch when in a long line waiting outside and the security and host allowed all the ladies to move to front of the line. Eclectic decor. Multiple sections to the floor plan for table seating. I recommend anyone go check it out for oneself.

Nestled in the heart of the city,offers a nostalgic journey back in time .From the moment you step inside, the live music ,rustic decor and friendly staff make you feel right at home.
The staff are attentive and knowledgeable
Just 4 in menu includes 3 drinks and a mouthwatering white boy grilled cheese. But experience is priceless must try in Michigan

This place is magical. One of the best quirky homey bars I’ve ever been to. The door man is excellent, the service is fast, the drinks are fun and the company is even better. I mean they have highballs with rock n rye faygo. What more can you ask for. A staple and an amazing place to share some drinks with friends.

We were turned away from this speakeasy while trying to celebrate a friend’s birthday and were spoken to in a way that felt discriminatory and degrading. The treatment we received made it clear we were not welcome because of our skin color.
This was not about dress code or capacity—it was about how we were treated. Completely unacceptable and not a place I would recommend to anyone expecting fairness or respect.

Cool place with occasional live music. It is a little cramped, I wouldn’t recommend a group larger than 4 unless you have a back up plan. They do have some tables for 6ish closer to the back but when I asked to get sat there the bouncer said it’s closed, then 15 min later I saw some people go sit back there. Table service can be a bit slow when it gets busy so just buy from the bar in that case.
Edit: i appreciate the response!!

LOVED it!! The atmosphere is awesome and the service was incredible! We were able to joke around with the bartender and enjoy the company of those around us. The grilled cheese was insanely delicious!! We wanted to just keep them coming! Everything is so fairly priced too! Hope to come back soon!
