This place has good drink prices with local artist trying out their music. Bartenders not too fun or maybe the two females working we're having a bad day but nobody could get a smile out of them. They were slinging drinks and focused which as a patron trying to buy multiple drinks I do appreciate but give a smile once in a while. The women's bathroom had pick me ups staged in the bathroom which is so considerate I'm my opinion. Mints, feminine products perfume and lotion. Very cutesy. I'd bring some girls back for a drink or two but nothing spectacular.

I stopped in on a Friday night to hear Alex Sings, and even though I came solo, I felt comfortable from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. It's the perfect place to unwind after a long week, enjoy a good meal, and listen to live music. I ordered the Friday special, and it was a great value. The chicken tenders were fresh, hot, and well seasoned. Bobby, the bartender, took my strawberry Smirnoff to the next level by adding pineapple juice and strawberry Pucker--it was absolutely delicious! The service is what really stood out. Joey, the owner, and Bobby, the bartender, have got to be two of the coolest guys I've met in a while. They were super personable, down-to-earth, and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. What really earned my 5-star rating was learning that they donate their leftover food to people in need every week. I love supporting businesses that give back to the community. They also host Wing It & Sing It Karaoke on Wednesdays, and after this experience, I'm looking forward to coming back to check that out too. Joey's Place has fresh food, great drinks, genuine hospitality, and a laid-back atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

The place is airliner themed m, which is fun. There's a sort of diorama behind the bar of a plane flying over mountains, airplane window diagrams, and they give you "flight snacks" when you order a flight! Fun! They're part of the Seventh Son Brewing group and they have their own beers as well as some from Seventh Son and Antiques on High. The getaway beers were lower in abv and tended to be lagers and pilsners, although they had a delicious porter on tap - all roasty and bitter chocolate. Food was great! I had baked wings and Neapolitan style pizza. The wings were seasoned really well and not mushy, as can happen with baked wings. The pizza has a nice chewy crust and tasty toppings. They also have a Detroit style. Bartenders were friendly and helpful. Attentive but not intrusive. Great experience!

After partying in the Arena District we made our way here. It was crowded but not that bad. The bar is in a strip mall. It doesn't look like much from outside, and it's a little better inside. The bar is pretty clean, but the atmosphere is terrible. For an Irish pub it doesn't seem to be that much. They were playing terrible country or computer DJ music. I had a Tullamore Dew and ginger beer. It's $5 for a large glass. They also had other specials like buckets for about $6 or so. It seems like an average strip mall bar. It just has an Irish name for it. This bar isn't that much Irish except for whiskey.

The service here is awesome; everyone is friendly, they're well experienced and are happy to whip up something for you off menu that fits exactly what you're looking for! All of the past seasonal cocktails I've tried have been delicious, and the newest set is no different! The subtle hot honey mixed with the peach soju is a perfect pairing; the FLW is a fun play on old fashioned vibes. I LOVE the stardust spritz, it's light & refreshing, but hits you with a zesty herbaceous punch! If you're looking for something different or a little more adventurous from a traditional spritz, this one is a must! You can't go wrong with whatever you pick & don't sleep on the Midnight Martinis either!
