From Bobo Lamb, the great, big Shorty, the comedian, Renee, Drake, and any other person that you may have seen on a Detroit stage or across the nation shows up at first place lounge. They have had a variant of DJs, but as of now, Dj Rico Riddick is that man to book a party with. Every now and then he has a host they call that dude Mr. PHREESTYLE. As far as I know he is OK, but he has a habit of saying, that he is the reason why the DJ turns the mic on. I guess one would have to come and see. The food menu is out cold. The bartenders are very professional. They have a pool table that is worth playing at. Coming from a male point of view. The crowd is approachable as a whole The space is safe and it is right off of the freeway. Detroit knows how to set a mood. Thank you very much for allowing me to go and have a birthday party there last year..

It’s the “Cheers bar” on Detroit’s Eastside, everything is good the food, music, live bands, the Respectful and welcoming atmosphere of new family members to the bar😊, The prices are still pre-Covid prices and especially “Delroy” who sets the tone for the entire “1st Place Lounge🥇!!!! See ya soon

It’s a place where “everyone knows your name” and no 1st timer is a stranger. Delroy, owner, is the man! His Jamaican cuisine is fire!

One of the hidden Detroit dives. Great music on Thursday nights with Brendan Linsley and the gang and awesome food anytime Delroy is cooking. You have to try the jerk chicken tacos Tuesday and also the jerk chicken meal on Thursday. This one doesn't make the lists but that's what makes it great- no hype, all Delroy.
