My husband and I met with friends at The Yard at Corktown on a Friday evening. It the first time…read morefor my husband and me, as we are reacquainting ourselves with our city after being away for a while. For those not familiar, Corktown is the area where the old Tiger Stadium used to be. We were happy to see how the old stadium was taken over by the Detroit Police Athletic League (PAL) and is used for youth sporting events. There are also many new restaurants, as well as the beautiful Michigan Central train station that was redeveloped by Ford Motor Company. The Yard at Corktown ("The Yard") is also new to Corktown ("new" to my husband and me). It can probably best be described as a game bar. They have a wall of shelves full of every board game imaginable, plus an area for darts, axe throwing, and a few other electronic games. Our friends also told us The Yard has Trivia Night on Thursdays. There happened to be a Pistons game on that night, and all the TVs played the same game. This was cool because everyone could enjoy regardless of their seating position. While not a huge place, The Yard had comfortable seating and was well laid out, which allowed people to move about without crowding others. The Yard has a very cool and relaxed vibe, and the people were not too loud, pretentious, or obnoxious. It was awesome how the place pretty much came to a standstill as everyone watched their respective screens while the Pistons came from behind to take the game into overtime. Our friends picked out a game, but then we became so engrossed with our conversation we never had the chance to play (lol). I really enjoyed our time at The Yard, and look forward to returning!

I was thinking that this was an actual lounge as opposed to a bar in the middle of the casino. Eh,…read moreno biggie. For the most part, I enjoyed myself at this "lounge" . . . extra point for smoking options. Since the lounge is in the middle of the casino, I would have expected the service to be fast. Boy, was I wrong. Perhaps, the lounge needs to staff more bartenders. Both of the bartenders were pretty nice to me, but I did notice that they were quite rude to other customers. I'm not sure if the customers were rude to the bartenders, but unfortunately, rude customers come with the job. In one case, a customer asked the bartender the types of vodkas the bar served, he pretty much bit her head off. Here's a quick tip: Be sure to order your cocktails as doubles, because it will take some time to get a second round.

Staff brought the drinks out quickly and checked in to make sure new drinks were ordered. The decor feels cozy but upscale and cool.

They had a seasonal menu which was fun- drink was the bah humbug - Mezcal, Averna, Aperol, maraschino, lemon juice, egg white- had little candy cane shapes on top and looked so cute. Delicious with a hint of smoke. Also had a Dequindre cut - so refreshing and delicious- gin, fernet, lemon, ginger, raspberry, bitters, cucumber, mint and topo chico- HIGHLY RECOMMEND

It was dimly lit and the lighting was yellow and purple. There are booths to sit in and some smaller circle tables. My only room for suggestion is to add some square or rectangle tables for larger parties. We were able to push some smaller circle tables together because we wanted to play card games and it all worked out.

Not just to me either it was EVERYONE. Short walks away before you can finish what you're saying. Snaps at you. She even ripped the menu out of my hand while I was reading it because it was the cocktail hour menu, I said I know but I was just seeing what was offered if we came back during, ignored me and walked off with menu slamming it down on the nearest counter. If I'm going somewhere to relax and enjoy a night out I want someone that's actually pleasant. She was just awful and put people on edge. Won't return. I don't pay to be treated like poop. Hire someone else, she obviously hates her job.

The entrance is inside a building with a revolving door and not just on the street. They have a lot of seats and tvs but it is a very comfortable feel to just relax, have a cigar, watch the game and enjoy yourself. I have no idea how old this place is or have been around but Im glad I found it. I was in a spot alone facing the wall lol and above the wall were 2 tvs in a high spots. One had on an old game of Cubs v Cardinals with Zambrano pitching so I was all about it and the other had funny dog videos. It was probably the best things to have on to relax to lol.

But then as the night went on the girl became busy with tidying up the place. The guy bartender totally was dismissive. We had to uncomfortably wave at him because he was too busy entertaining everybody else aside from us. Not a, "are you guys ok? Can I get anything else for you?" Nope, we became an afterthought. He'd rather entertain people who can't order a proper dry martini correctly. I dunno, maybe he deemed We didnt belong there. I guess thats how they weed out people they dont want going in there. Im extremely disappointed. I had high hopes of this place being classy, but then ended up realizing they'd rather entertain pretentious patrons. Find me elsewhere. I'll just be one less patron they have to think about huh?
