50 Best Bars near Grosse Pointe Farms

“Flyleaf Grosse Pointe is a haven for book lovers, gourmands, and those unique people who love the nostalgia of an old school Viennese coffee house. The selection of books is curated well and I'll defy you to leave without making a purchase. The decor feels like you've been transported back in time to old English library from an Agatha Christie novel, all we need to complete the vibe is Hercule Poirot or Miss Marple. The quality of the food is superb, they don't skimp and you'll never be disappointed. The staff, are those unicorns who love books and love their jobs. A wonderful hidden gem.“

“We went to Old Pony Martini Bar and loved the atmosphere! It has the feel of a great old neighborhood corner bar, casual, friendly, and welcoming. The service was excellent, and our hamburgers were delicious with hot, crispy French fries. There was nothing better than an ice cold beer on a hot Sunday afternoon. It made for a perfect afternoon. We’ll definitely be back!“

“This place is very cool. You don’t have to worry about running out of coins or credits ect. A wristband at a very reasonable price gets you all the playing you could ask for! There are lots games to choose from. The best part is that the people who work there are so kind. They deserve good business! 🩷“

“The crowd is nice on Thursday- Sundays , security plenty of parking and nice birthday party events. The drinks are reasonable and the waitresses be on their job. Like a cheers atmosphere you wanna go where everyone knows your name. Ms Krystal is sweet and loving and people be dressed to impress there. TV's seating 💺 ♥️ people call it a "hole in the wall" but those same people be in attendance "lol They come from all over the city to this place you must get there early on Sunday nights cause DJ Tony Rome be on hot blazing 🔥 fire. Dance, entertainment etc. Everytime my out of town guest / sweetheart comes to visit Detroit she has to come there before she leaves its a must.“

“Come for the rooftop, stay for the food!

Tried Cannons for the first time during their opening weekend. We loved the cozy pub decor and penny top bar, dining options (oysters + prosecco? Say less), and most importantly: the rooftop patio. It was the perfect day to enjoy a cocktail outside.

The only downside of our visit: the music on the first floor was slow, quiet dentist office like instrumentals which definitely detracted from the overall feel of the place. I could hear everyone else’s conversations and it added an almost somber element to an otherwise lovely space. Hoping for something more convivial on our next visit!“

“Went for the Yuengling party which was a great way to welcome a classic American beer to Michigan. We were very excited to see Monk's Cafe on the beer list. So many options here for everyone. The James O'Donnell Band was great too!“

“Pretty, pretty, pretty…pretty good. 🫶🏼“

“The Only Clubhouse That Matters!“

“We went in today looking for a few items that my daughter could use to start her new small business. Although he was busy, John was patient, and very generous with his time. He was friendly, while showing us the vast array of supplies, and equipment they have, and shared valuable advice. From this first experience, we will definitely continue to support Jacobs Restaurant Equipment Inc., in the future, and refer others to as well. Also thanks to Heena, for being so helpful.“

“Food was ok, (brought in)
Atmosphere (mature and mellow)
Service was decent.
The pour however was generous.
We were there on St Patrick's Day.
I was fully expecting to get ripped off.
Didn't happen, I was there for the 1st time, gotta a generous pour.
Service and food was shit.

I will definitely return, seriously, got a great pour on a day when I fully expected to be taken advantage of.

Great spot, will return, would suggest.
Awesome watering hole.
Would recommend.“

You can tell management genuinely cares—prices are fair, portions are generous, and the food is consistently delicious. Whether you're stopping in for a late-night bite or enjoying lunch on the patio, XO delivers every time.

Bonus: it's family-friendly, affordable, and has a great neighborhood vibe. Highly recommend!“

I just walked all the way down here I'm pissed.

Only changing my review bc Sandra is such a sweetie every single time. But legit Karaoke needs to be open later ?“

“It’s like a cheers atmosphere. Everyone is so nice. The food is tasty and fresh. Bob is the best like a Clint Eastwood you can hug. Dave is cool and cooks excellent. The drinks are good and affordable. Try a game of pool or just chillax to good music. Crowd mixed. Bathroom is clean.“

Come here! Awesome place with awesome service and karaoke. ❤“

“Long overdue. Finally a place in the Eastside where everybody is somebody and all people are welcomed and accepted. Be clear, this is Detroit's version of 'Cheers.'

Texas Bar and grill is one of the rare places in Southeastern Michigan where people of differing backgrounds can drink, socialize, watch a game and have a great time. This is a very cool, and large sports bar with welcoming staff, decent prices and a wide variety of music.“

“Service was fast - very good poached fish and battered fish -all you can eat for $16.97!“

“We've been to Vu bar on my husband's birthday. We truly enjoyed it there. I am writing this review to compliment a very special bar tender: Genevieve. Genevieve was a wonderful person who recommended new drinks 🍷 🍹 and she was great at making friendly conversations with us. Genevieve is an excellent staff with a great personality. She's an expert in her field. She was amicable, respectful and very professional. We will definitely visit Vu bar again. Genevieve took wonderful pictures of us and she was very patient and polite when we asked her to take pictures with the sunset and the amazing view of Detroit river. I hope that Special employees like Genevieve are well recognized for their dedication and commitment. She is a great asset to Caesars Casino. We wish her all the best in her career. Thank you Genevieve for your kind and wonderful efforts in making our celebration 🎉 very special.“
