Hands down the best burger in town. Andy and the gang are wonderful people and the live shows are a blast.

The SugarBowl is exactly what you want in a working-class bar; cheap beer, pool tables, metal on the jukebox, and burgers that make you question why you ever ate anywhere else.
We rolled in after wrapping four days of filming around Michigan. Everybody told us “get the burgers,” and they were dead right. Huge, messy, cooked with pride.
I usually go vegetarian, and they were out of veggie patties that night. I asked if I could bring in my own Impossible Burger for the grill—bartender just laughed and said, “health code, can’t do it. But I’ll make you something. You won’t be disappointed.”
What came out was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. Not on the menu, totally improvised, and absolutely killer. My partner got a mushroom version, I got mine without. Both were seriously fantastic.
I can’t tell you what to order because it doesn’t have a name, but if they ever add it to the menu I hope they call it The Crew Melt. It was the perfect end-of-shoot meal for a hungry film-crew vegetarian.
Bottom line: this is a dive that punches way above its weight. Come for the metal, stay for the pool, and don’t sleep on the food.

An interesting little local bar. The type of bar I used to hang out back in the '70s.
