No food menu other than a soup of the day made by the barmaids mother. Whatever she feels like cooking, the day we visited is split pea, and not a fan of peas, this was loaded with chunks of ham and potatoes. Very stick to your ribs soup. A shot and a beer rounded out the “meal” the bartender was super friendly even had us sign her up”out of towners” book as we were from Alabama. When you search dive bar this is a go too place. Don’t let the doorbell deter you, or the seedy neighborhood. Stop in and see the “Oldest Bar in Detroit”

Back at the Two Way Inn on Twosday.. Great bar and great people, we love this place. You wait for the Purple Gang to walk in at any moment.

I enjoyed the old style the bar has. We went here on the Drunks of Antiquity bus tour, so it was a fun stop while learning the history of the place.

This Establishment was on a bar tour! Oldest bar in Detroit. Served many other purposes in its circa 100 year existence.

This place is a gem. Family owned establishment. Detroit's oldest bar. Always a good time. Stop by and learn the incredible history of the place and of the neighborhood or maybe run into friends. Check it out on a Wednesday when Mary is cooking up something delicious. Check your wallet, do a head count and RING THE BELL

I went to the Two Way *after they were already closed.* Their hours are *clearly listed!* Why did I do that lol. The Two Way is 10/10 *amazing,* but I give *myself* 1 star for deciding to go there when they were closed already and trying to demand service anyway. Why do I do ridiculous nonsense like that? Smdh I need to do better. Wtg Two Way for consistently being awesome and having clearly stated hours and sticking to them and being the best place in the world to go *when they are open!!*

My family does an annual party bus every year and we always make the Two-Way a stop to try and help support smaller businesse. We went on Saturday and got to the bar at midnight. The front door was open so we walked in. the owner was sitting at the bar along with 3 other people and yelled at our group saying that they were closed. She then proceeded to laugh at all of us saying "Try making better reservations" and was extremely rude to our group. This is very sad because like I said we like to support small businesses. We will never be back and we will just spend more time at Abicks!

This place was great! One of the oldest bars around. I loved the vibe. We didn't have any food, just drinks. The bartender is a great story teller and we're looking forward to our next visit.

Went there a little bit ago for the 50th anniversary because my dad is good friends with the owner and I'm friends with the owners daughter, obviously I'm gonna give it a 5 star rating, not because of the circumstances, but because it's genuinely a good place to go to grab a few drinks with your friends on a Saturday night.

I came here from Denver with a couple locals because of its paranormal history. We spent 3 hours because the staff and the local patrons were so welcoming and chatty. It was such a great experience! I wish I lived here so I could go more often. Go for the possible ghost sightings, but stay because the place is awesome! Highly recommend!!
