This place is a gem! Awesome food at very reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and service is always good. You won’t be disappointed!
1st time visiting this place finally! The food was really good!! Very very reasonably priced too! The service was lacking a bit but she was alone doing the bar and tables. I think a dedicated server could help with that. Overall will absolutely be back to try other menu items and grab some drinks!

Good food and I didn't expect a nice little hang out based on what appeared to be a hole in the wall bar. Cool bartender and easy going crowd.
Back in the area visiting friends / family & found this gem. While you could characterize The Detour as a "bar", the food is way above that.
Visited twice during our stay, trying the Reuben Rolls, Chicken Wings, Breakfast Burger & Detour Brat. Kudos to the kitchen, as everything came out hot, made to order & super tasty.
Service was great, drinks were top notch. Highly recommended.

This little bar/ restaurant in in a little tiny shopping nook near China express. Parking lot is a bit tight but it works. The burgers are very delicious. My husband and I seen the detour burger and mac n cheese in a photo online . Let me just say it caught our attention. Tonight I ordered the chicken salad and onion rings . My husband ordered the detour burger and mac n cheese . First off chicken salad caught me of guard when I seen GRAPES IN MY SALAD. I can't lie I was immediately upset . Why the online menu didn't exspress that the salad would contain grapes ,it ended up having them. It wasn't for me . It looked like a chicken salad had been slapped on top of romaine lettuce. There wasnt much effort there at all the romaine was very fresh however. Great ranch . I had a bite of the detour burger . When I tell you this burger hit all of the flavors a burger could ever hit. This burger hit them all! It's SATISFACTION in a bun! My husband loved it though it could be one patty heavier. That would make it to my number one for burgers. Sweet tangy from the sauce to the smokey flavor and the fluffy bun had me feeling like I was tasting a peice of art! Now if you're an onion ring fan HIT THIS PLACE ! THE ONION RINGS ARE TO DIE AND COME BACK TO LIFE FOR ! every individual ring was perfectly battered eventually crispy. These onion rings are one of the best I have ever tasted tbh. I have eaten at alot of restaurants but believe me the only other we reasturant that presents this quality of onion rings is a very highly priced reasturant a couple years back . Their prices are very affordable. The mac n cheese is so so so good ! Seems homemade very good creamy the same is a very good portion for one person. Tastes fresh. Very good place not a fan of the salad maybe they will change it to grilled chicken instead someday. I feel that would be more appropriate. Would definitely recommend for the burger and everything else. Just not the chicken salad salad.

I went about 2 months ago the server/bartender had some problem with me being there and was really rude whenever i order something they would slide it or no joke like almost throw it at me that's one way to get a lawsuit right there food was subpar but the server/bartender clearly didnt get a background check before getting hire to work there acts like a kid with a sugar rush really disappointing and unprofessional way to server people.

Looking for something a lil different bcuz that’s what I do!!! So neighborhood bar around the corner, down the street spot., near my work place for lunch. Nothing like a bar burger so full of flavors and the sweet potatoes fries is to die for, never had none that taste as good as these….. and that’s on PERIODT!!! I will be hitting this new spot again off the clock so I can enjoy a cocktail or 2 from a hard days work. Overall it’s a nice clean small chilled bar✌?&?
