“I always love the laid back atmosphere here. Gives you feelings of nostalgia. This use to be one of Detroits jumping spots back in the day. It is still nice to visit and see the old dance floor, pool table and beautiful bar maid. People are friendly, you can go against some really good pool players, and if you like dancing come through. One minor draw back, they don't take debit or credit cards. Lol“

“Popped in for a couple drinks and some fries. Crinkle cut was a lovely surprise. Made delicious glasses of my specialty drink. Super friendly bartenders. Would definitely check out their Fish Fry-Day.

Went in today for a couple drinks after a bad day and was served quickly and exactly what I ordered. Great place to pop in or sit down. Love the outdoor patio.“

“Wow, this is the best place I've ever been. The drinks were great. The playlist was incredible. But the service was definitely the best I've seen in any drinking establishment in my entire life. I will fight anyone who dares deny, this is the place to be.“

“Such a blast to play here!“

“Great people and good fun until new management now the drinks are overpriced for the environment they have done absolutely nothing in 20 years to the establishment not even update the televisions but the price jumped two or three dollars on the drinks miss me with it I'll have to find a new watering hole“

“Love everything about Shift and I will be back!! My only issue was my reservation was taken for 5 guests at 8:15 pm and we waited 40 minutes for our table. We did have comfortable seats at the bar so that made up for the wait. Everyone was so accommodating and Lance personalized our evening with his travel tales. Cocktails, live music and small plates were outstanding!! Thank you for a lovely & memorable evening!“

“Every time my wife and I eat here at this church of deliciousness, we leave with happy souls. It is as if God himself has blessed the cheeses and toppings and ovens with his own hands and holy prayer. The arugula salad with the lemon vinaigrette is an angelic beginner. The roasted carrots are themselves a divinity worthy of devout worship. The Bagley Chorizo is a canonical revelation deserving of kneeling at the altar of.

To not enjoy this place or to speak ill of it is to surely reserve yourself a spot in the depths of Hell. To not receive the baptism of their sauces or dressings is to walk forever in the darkness in the shadow of sin and doubt. God clearly loves Michigan & Trumbull.

Wu-Tang Forever.“

“Went to FrameBar yesterday for the BirriaBar pop-up with chef Eddie Vargas. Food was excellent and a great value for the amount of food at the price point. I loved that the chef was making the rounds in the dining room to ensure every customer was satisfied. The birria platter and quesabirria were both great, as well as the salsas, queso, and aguacates. Lastly, the bar had good Mexican-inspired drink options, with the smoked Oaxacan old fashioned being my favorite for both taste and presentation. Great work all around.“

“Participated in a grad party given here by a relative. Great food, great service! Staff was very accommodating, and went out of their way to make things perfect! Atmosphere was perfect for an afternoon outdoor party! Would definitely recommend!“

“Came here with some friends for speed dating event. It was a nice bar and staff was very friendly. But it was a total waste of time for speed dating because there were only two guys and about 10 girls. Nice bar to come and chill but not for speed dating“

“If you are looking for a chill vibe with excellent drinks, come to Traverse City Whiskey Outpost in Ferndale! The manager, Dave is the best - he's friendly, attentive, and a true mixologist! I love it here :)“

“Service was great. Nice little restaurant. It was a bit too hot out to enjoy the patio. But would Definitely be worth a trip during the summer.

Ordered the bake cheese dip to start. Really enjoyed it. Goes really good with the toasted baguettes.

Full menu of options for drinks. No frozen drinks tho. They do not have a blender. They carry Faygo pop and that was a real treat.

Ordered the chicken Caesar salad. If I had known that, the salad came premixed I would’ve asked for the salad dressing on the side. It turned the Romain lettuce, soggy quickly. Couldn't take the left overs. Dressing was on the bitter side.

Also, tried the fire bird sandwich. Bun gave it good texture. Not a fan of the topping choices. Didn’t go well with the cheese and sauce.

I was excepting a little more from the menu. Smaller menu. Will be back.“

“best quality food and Great atmosphere the drinks are phenomenal highly recommend“

“We were instantly greeted and seated. Our server Robby was awesome. The entire staff was friendly. Chef Johnny is very talented and friendly. I love that he greets all guest and will even bring your food out himself. For starters we had the shrimp and crab cakes. They were crispy on the outside and melted in your mouth. The surprise with these was that there was whole shrimp inside. We loved it. The sauce on top was just the right amount. The salmon with saffron rice, coconut curry sauce and green apple slaw was the best salmon I've had in a while. The pairing was new for me but it worked. The salmon was juicy and perfectly cooked. When paired with everything on my plate it was like fireworks. Everything popped and was amazing. My husband had the beef strudel. Now he was thinking it was gonna be like a beef wellington but no. When he put his fork into the perfectly crispy flaky crust and into the most tender beef either of us have ever had, OMG. With the first bite all he could do was say "WOW"(sorry about how loud he was). The flavors of that plate were incredible. The blueberry cheesecake was the icing on the cake. It was perfect. Sweet but not too sweet and the smear of lemon sauce on the side elevated the flavors. The drinks. I had the rainforest and my husband had the Johnny Manhattan. When we saw how small the glasses were we were definitely worried. That feeling quickly faded with the first sip. The drinks may be small but they are strong and delicious. We had to pace ourselves with those. Overall, I give this place a 10/10 and will definitely be back again soon. Thank you to everyone there for a great time and for great service.“

“Had calamari which was like eating rubber. Pasta was very good although the waitress didn't know if the pasta was made in-house. Pizza was the star. It's the best around this area. Service was slow.“

“Great drinks and night scene. Had a lot of fun their last night.“

“Excelente !!!!! Para una buena estadía y tomarte algo refrescante“

“My husband, daughter and I stopped in for the first time tonight and the food, staff, and atmosphere was amazing. Even my picky 8 year old loved it and tried everything! We will be back very soon! This is our new favorite spot👍“

“We are here for our anniversary and both the food and the service were excellent! We were helped by Chloe and Charlie and they were quick and so sweet. We had the garlic bruschetta, carbonara and salmon which was more than enough to share. The pasta was so fresh and the salmon may have been my favorite salmon I’ve ever had. Because it was our anniversary they gave us a complimentary dessert and sent over a prosecco toast on the house! Really excellent place I can’t recommend it more!“

“The perfect, laid back place to enjoy amazing food and delicious cocktails! I am obsessed with the pineapple mule, the make their own infused pineapple vodka. The live jazz on Thursdays is the perfect reason to make this a weekly visit!“

“I was there tonight and it was turnt! Whoever the dj was i hope he there every Saturday it was a young cat he did his thing on the 1’s & 2’s. The drinks were fire too shout out to the ladies behind the bar!! Keep it up encore ill be back next week.“

“Fun time meeting people. Great food and drinks.“

“Drinks are fantastic here! Have not tried the food and heard it is a very small menu on selected day but if you are looking for well crafted cocktails, you've found the right place! I have only been here twice but so far the Basil Smash (not pictured) and the Coffee Espresso Martini are both absolutely delicious.“

“really don’t even want to write this review bc I want to keep Pequeño Cantina to myself, BUT this is my SPOT!! Tiff M is AMAZING and she is a wizard with the drinks AND service!!! I look forward to the food, drinks and atmosphere. 100/10“

“Great service and food!👍🏻🍻“

“Clean, good service and happy staff. Most of all good food…“

“Came in for a margarita after going on a first date that could’ve been better, and everything was fabulous. Best chicken tinga tacos I’ve ever had. I came here specifically because I wanted a real margarita made with lime and agave rather than sour mix. Best margarita I’ve had in Metro Detroit, and I’ve been around! Lol. 100/10 recommend. Also, my server Karina was so kind and attentive.“
