Great spot to hit up when staying at the lake!

One of my favorite things about going to a city like New York are those small intimate venues like…read morethe Blue Note, where you can eat and drink and watch some music. Yes, many restaurants around have performers but there's something different about this kind of spot. The performers are not an afterthought. They're the focus and why people are there and the enjoying of music is a communal experience. North Star Lounge scratches that itch I have for a venue like that here in Ann Arbor. A friend of ours was playing a show here which made my first visit even more enjoyable and special. As a music venue this place is small but not uncomfortable in the slightest. It's what one might call, "intimate." For the show they had set out some rows of chairs but there were several tables and booths if you prefered to have a little more space or would like to eat while you watch the show. They have a limited menu for food and it's prepared at Detroit Filling Station next door (also NSL's owners) which means it's vegan and also delicious. It was a cold evening so went with comfort food and ordered the mac and cheese, which was as excellent as when I've ordered it from DFS. They have a nice cocktail/beer/wine menu but also a substantial NA/Mocktail selection. I've pumped the breaks on alcohol recently so I went with a hot tea to warm up and a mocktail with some muddled fruit and mint (the drinks are seasonal so the menu from that time is no longer posted for me to recall the name but it was very good). Good tunes, good food, good drinks, friendly folks. What else could you need? Check out their calendar of events now and plan your visit!

Had sangria and a beer- with the chicken kabobs, clam chowder, and perch sampler. Food took a moment- snafu in the kitchen that our waitress figured out and corrected. Chicken and perch on point.

It was phenomenal! A beautiful evening in their field under the stars and twinkle lights. Beautiful atmosphere. I just returned a second time last week for a wine tasting and then we reserved an igloo and it was so fun! Phenomenal wine and delicious charcuterie. Excellent and friendly service. Everyone who works here is so kind. I love their merchandise too. I bought a sweatshirt and it's seriously the softest sweatshirt I've ever owned. I bought a blanket and candle too and I really like them. I have enjoyed every wine I've tried here. I definitely plan on returning for more events.

Many bars and restaurants nearby if you want a drink or snack before or after your show. Entry was easy as I had tickets on my phone. I purchased general admission tickets. They do have reserved seats available at a higher price point. How GA works is you get there and the attendants tell you to sit anywhere that isn't reserved. The earlier you get there, the better seat selection you'll have. We sat at the stage for one of my favorite bands. You have a little table and chairs (either two or four). It was so intimate and cozy. I loved it. The temperature was perfect. Not freezing from AC, but not muggy. Very comfortable. Sound was excellent and electrical worked perfectly for this show. They do have drinks for sale, but I didn't have anything. Other reviews mention paying low membership dues and then you can buy alcoholic drinks. They have water and cups available too. Really great experience and can't wait to go back!

She was not friendly, and not very kind, and I even saw her scouring in the bathroom later that night. So maybe she was having a bad day. But I certainly didn't do anything to deserve it.

It's local, there's pool (the dart board no longer available at time of visit), there's a very nice owner/bartender, and the beer selection is okay. Would I go again? Most likely.

It was great, and we actually had about 15 there at the pic of the night, and maybe about 7 paying attention, at the lull of the televised football game. The peolpe there were great and very appreciative to have a Brooklyn Synth-afro pop band play there. There was an old guy named like a simpsons character- I forget which though, so lets just call him Homer, but we looked more like Abe- whatever- he was telling me about how his family has lived in this town for 200 years- imagine that. We sold 2 albums and the younger drunk guy who djs at Washtenaw community college made us sign it.

She had received a gift card, which we wanted to use, and it had been a rough day, with [brief description of the rough day]. But I will get to that in a minute. If you're expecting a typical martini bar and tapas place, you might want to reconsider. This place is all about its unique charm, and the 'regulars' wouldn't have it any other way. There's a distinct 'locals vibe' here, and in the summer, you might even spot a few Harleys parked outside. It's not about meeting your expectations, it's about creating a sense of community. And it was fun! Sometimes, there is live music; on other nights, there is a DJ; and on Thursdays, it is Karaoke night. And tonight being Thursday, the Karaoke performances were enthusiastic if not... Well, they were enthusiastic!! *smile* Mae (May?) was a kind and friendly server who did everything possible to make our visit a good experience. The food is good, "bar-style," and the drink options are plentiful. We met Steve (owner? or manager?). He is a very nice guy. He answered a few questions for us and made us feel welcome. In the future, he might work the place over into a steakhouse type of restaurant and Adrian REALLY could use one of these downtown. But the star of the show is Kujo! The bar dog. Now wait, a dog in a bar...yes, Kujo is a certified service/therapy dog. By law, he goes anywhere his human takes him. SUPER friendly and remarkably gentle, I would return to this place just to visit the dog! But I will try a burger next time.

The Tap always has at least a few locals shooting the breeze, and a no-nonsense staff who get to you as soon as they can. There's nothing fancy about this place, but I'm gonna tell you, their burgers are what I'm looking for. Tonight they got my burger wrong, but it was good anyway, and I didn't complain! My tolerance was rewarded when an anonymous patron bought a round for the whole place! That won't happen at Buffalo Wild Wings, eh? The Village Tap is a great little classic Michigan watering hole. Drive the backroads and you'll surely find another place like this. But when you're in Manchester stop in here. Get a burger. Get some fries. Shoot a game of pool. Play some tunes on the jukebox. Say hello to Sabrina or Barbie, if they aren't rushing too hard! And don't forget to leave them a chunky tip. These girls hustle!
