This location was just ok to me. The ambiance was really cool. My only critique is- They advertised Rnb night, and upon entry, I asked the age demographic. The person working the door stated it was very diverse, but in reality, it felt like a high school/college party (not my type of vibe) lol. The playlist was good though!

I have tried coming back to this place multiple times with friends and have had the worst experiences. Firstly - the drinks are way expensive and overfilled with ice. For $20+ you basically get a shot of alcohol. The atmosphere and actual layout of those place is super cool- they have glow in the dark walls and dancefloor, multiple different rooms for parties and arcade games. The bathrooms are great for photos, however not the cleanest. RED FLAG ALERT INCOMING several times and several friends including myself personally have been drugged here. I am very cautious with my drink always being near me and in my sight and watching the bartenders make the drinks. Not taking drinks from strangers etc. You know the drill ladies! Every time I have come here and had 2-3 drinks max, I DO NOT REMEMBER THE NIGHT. Beware, the bartenders are known to work with date rape men/women. I would not recommend any of my friends or family to this location!!

Extremely cool atmosphere, especially if you're looking for a club like scene. Black lights looked sooo cool with all of the mosaic art. You can get standard drinks with fast service. There usually is a cover charge, but otherwise, a good place to visit for downtown detriot nightlife.

The bar floor, blue light and light up the whole room. Good photo op!

What an amazing time!! Experience this Detroit bar for the first time and was wonderful. Safe and a great time. The one bartender. Short brunette hair was extremely rude, other than that experience it was a great bar. Go lions!!!

This club in Detroit is definitely super cool for the aesthetic! The black light, in one corner of this club truly makes it stand out among all the other venues in the city. I always have a good time when I go, but I can't warrant that to much that more than a great group of people. The DJs are always a hit or miss but when there are big techno events in the city, they do get some really cool DJs. Drinks are pricey and nothing super special. There usually is a line to enter that wraps around the corner, and the bouncers do their best, but it does take a while to make it inside. If you want a really vibey time and definitely a different kind of experience, make it out to Deluxx Flux.

So here's the deal, I've only ever been here on a weeknight. Meaning, there wasn't really any programming. And without live music or some sort of dance party it does feel pretty quiet. But the space is so cool, the blacklight artwork and the tricked out video games and pinball machines add to a really artsy, rad vibe. And the cocktails are great. But without that extra oomph their performances and such provide it doesn't get super crowded so the space feels a little empty. So, if you're looking for a high energy spot, check their schedule beforehand and make sure there's something going on. If you're looking for something more low key but visually interesting, come on Tuesday night and enjoy the chill. But know you may be one of only a few people there.

Bummer. No drinks for us unless we paid for the concert playing tonight. We came for some drinks and some snacks and to checkout this cool neon rich bar or club. Wasn't going to work out for us. There was a concert playing, couldn't tell you the name of the band. The bouncer informed us it was $12/pp for this Indie R&B band. Wasn't feeling like paying $24 just to get into the place for a drink. Oh well. Thus ending our evening abruptly in the D at least.

This place gets 5 stars for the uniqueness. They have games such as pinball machines, air hockey and more. We played pinball and it took me back to my younger days. They also had a section made up of a bunch of neon colors which I loved. DJ was playing good tunes and just overall a had a cool vibe.

Whenever there's a new spot downtown I always have to check it out. They hype around this place was big! We waited in a line outside for 45 minutes in the cold (while the bouncer was letting his friends cut the line the second they showed up) once we got inside it was truthfully, underwhelming. There's a $20 cover charge at the door (cash only) Bartenders seemed skilled and offered a good selection of beer. The live band that played had equipment with poor sound quality. It sounded muffled and low. A cool selection of arcade games to chose from and plenty of opportunities to take a cool photo with all of the neon backdrops.

very fun, cool vibe. fun for a girls night out or a group of friends! Didn't get any drinks, but the security by the bathroom was so nice, felt safe!

One of my favorite spots in downtown Detroit. Cool hip underground club that is much larger than you think it would be for a basement club. The bar has always had fast service. I've been here a few times and there has been different music each time I was there. One night was rap, another was trance/techno so you may want to see what they are playing if you are picky about your music. Cover charge is usually around $5.00 and well worth it. The neon room is very cool! A must see if in the downtown Detroit area.

I love this part of Detroit - hidden in an alley, bright neon lights inside, and a diverse crowd with a variety of music. The only downfall, I'd you want to consider it one, is that the art inside is so cool that you'll see all the women and men taking selfies or hot pictures for social media. I went on a Friday night and the cover charge for men and women is $5. That's probably the cheapest price to pay for a club/bar in Detroit. Oh, and there's an arcade inside the bar, giving this more of dive bar feel. The drinks are all tasty and reasonably priced for the amount of liquor you receive. This is definitely a must go-to bar when visiting Detroit .

Had such an amazing experience at Standby!! The food and especially the drinks were outstanding…read more The cocktail menu was organized into three parts: Opening, Principals, and Finish. The theme was "Yes, Chef: An exploration of culinary icons through a cocktail lens." Each drink was inspired by or dedicated to a famous culinary icon, and you can read about each one in the index. We each ordered one drink from each section. From the Opening, I chose the Diaspora Club, which was so refreshing and delicious. Then from the Principals, I chose the Chingona, which was a little bit spicy and savory but still so refreshing. To Finish, I chose the Chocolatier Cosmo, which came with a tiny house-made salted dark chocolate. I loved all three cocktails I ordered, especially the chocolatier cosmo because it was perfectly sweet and went so well with the small piece of chocolate. For food, we started off with the crispy pork belly milk bread. For my entree, I ordered the miso butter gnocchi. It was kind of on the salty side but I still really liked it. The apple sofrito added a bit of sweetness to it. For dessert, we had to get the rhubarb coffee cake, which came with strawberry ice cream. Omg one of the best desserts I've ever had!! I never thought of combining cinnamon coffee cake with rhubarb or strawberry but it's perfect, and I might have to make something like that soon. Service was great and we were seated right away at 8pm on a Saturday despite not having a reservation. Food and drinks came out promptly and timed perfectly. We spent about 1.5 hours here and we never felt rushed.

The pork belly on toast and roasted carrots were absolutely delicious. About the drinks, these bartenders know their stuff. I ordered a late 1800s gin drink called the Clover Club and he knew right away what it was and made it perfectly. The guy had skills behind the bar and showed some flair making drinks. The vibe was super chill and relaxed with good music gently played in the background. Highly recommended this spot if you're in Detroit.

Bad Luck Bar is exactly the kind of place that makes you feel like you earned your cocktail before…read moreyou even order it. It is tucked away in an alley, and yes, the trash bins may briefly make you question your life choices. But once you spot the glass block window, you know you are in the right place. The second you walk in, the vibe completely changes. You are greeted by a friendly host, then brought into this tiny, dark, cozy little speakeasy that feels like it seats maybe 25 people total, including the bar. It is intimate in the best way, with a gorgeous liquor wall and a rolling ladder that makes the whole room feel dramatic without trying too hard. The drinks are the reason to come. They are creative, unusual, and genuinely unlike what you will find at a standard cocktail bar. Some of the spirit combinations sound like they should not work on paper, but somehow they absolutely do. The mixologists clearly know what they are doing, because every "wait, really?" ingredient pairing seems to turn into something balanced, interesting, and dangerously easy to appreciate. The only things to keep in mind are the size and the pricing. It can get busy quickly because it is so small, and cocktails can run anywhere from around $20 to over $100 depending on what you order. Not exactly a casual "oops, I had three" kind of place unless your wallet has been emotionally prepared. Bad Luck Bar is moody, memorable, and one of the more unique cocktail experiences in Detroit. It feels hidden, thoughtful, and just a little mischievous, which is exactly what a good speakeasy should be.

A HIDDEN gem! It's nestled in an alley, so yes you will question if you are going the right way!…read moreLol Greeted by a host as soon as you enter and fair warning - - it's small and popular. Please make a reservation! Our wait was about 30-40 mins so we walked to another spot to have a drink and wait. It's a cozy lux vibe with an upscale cocktail menu. This is not your normal tequila and soda okay! Know before you go! Visit their website and preview the drink options if you don't have experience with this style of bar. I ordered the Forgotten Blossom because all things lychee has been my thing lately. The drink looks like water but it is not! lol It's strong drink + having aperitif in it. The waiter was attentive and checked in on us consistently. We even received a complimentary shot after being seated and complimentary birthday shots for the birthday folks! I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and I will be back real soon!

The bartender was super sweet and make some really potent drinks, they weren't expensive. There was a rotation of 3 DJs for the night and I partied from 10:30 til they closed around 2am. The dance floor is in the basement. There are a ton of little nooks and booths to sit in and take a break. I danced all night. I have t had that much fun dancing in a long time. And I danced for hours! Sweat glistening on my brow. My body moving and grooving to the funky soulful house beats. It felt so freeing to be in a space where everyone was having a good a time and doing their own thing. I had my hands in the air. It was sensual. It was sexy. It was a vibe. Now the bathroom situation is interesting. So, the bathroom situation is 2 urinals and the sink in the open space as well as an enclosed single stall. The only thing with that is it's all-gender, which is not the issue. But the layout of the restroom is you could potentially come out of the single stall and be in the same space with someone actively using the open urinals which is a bit awkward. Washing your hands and checking yourself in the mirror while some random person is pee'ing 2 feet away. As a woman I think about safety with a shared space like that so do what you will with that info. Outside of that I had a really fun time. Everyone was super nice and the cover was $10pp. If you decide you don't wanna dance they have an enclosed bar on the street level of the establishment as well as outdoor seating if that's you're thing. If I was in Detroit again, I'd go shake my booty there again! I had fun!

I took one look at the menu and cocktail list, and determed that we would be going somewhere else to eat afterwards, thinking, "this won't be a long visit at all." But oh was I pleasantly surprised. First round of cocktails set the tone and gave us the courage to go ahead and try some of the plates. We decided on the shrimp, pork belly and gorgonzola cheese ones. Absolutely delicious. So then we decided on round two of cocktails the plate of chips, avocado toast and another round of pork belly! Again, divine. Although I will admit, everything got dipped into the pork belly sauce. Was tempted to do a round three to try the highly recommended lobster rolls but decided to save something for the next visit because there will be one. They executed all the small plates exceptionally well. And the cocktails were top quality! Only complaint was the seats are very low to the ground. I'm short and my legs were aching. I can only imagine how uncomfortable those with normal legs feel after dining. BTW my daughter and her friends had a wonderful birthday celebration but ended up leaving us adults there because we were having such a good time!
