Had heard great things about this one since some time and was finally able to get to it. They do a…read morevegan month special all through the month of August because the produce is fresh and flavorful at this time of the year. They had 4 different menus for each week and I happened to try their 1st and last week's menu which we loved so much. Service was excellent as they were very well versed with the variety they were serving, it was a 6-7 course tasting style. They even packed up the leftovers themselves which was very helpful. A special mention to their non alcoholic beverage pairing they were promoting with the food tasting menu. While I chose wine from the ala carte section, I saw on other tables those beverages which I would like to try next time for sure. All items were amazing, summer melon salad being my favorite that had melon, cucumbers, mint, cheese(?), coconut milk, roasted nuts and basil at the minimum that I want to recreate again

Burger week review:…read more 4.7/5......What a great experience during burger week (sells out so fast so I did a walk in by my self on their last day ) -Cesar salad was amazing best I've ever had ! -burger was phenomenal for sure on my top burgers I have ever tried ! The bread of the bun was the most amazing thing... soft and buttery! -curly fries where not my fave probably a 3/5 -watermelon margarita was so refreshing and good (seasonal) -the chocolate cake was good but I wished there was a little bit more caramel on it ! I can't wait to come and try their regular menu so I can review this place again !!

We always come here for the golf simulators, and we really do love it. The drinks are great, the…read morefood is fantastic. However, the service is always inconsistent. Sometimes, we have amazing waitresses that check on us all the time. They even let us extend our time because there's no one else there, and they know we'll keep buying drinks and food while we have fun. Then we sometimes get a waitress that checks on us twice in 2 hours and acts like we're inconveniencing them. Why not keep all your customers happy, check on them, let them keep having fun and spending money at your establishment? It seems like sometimes people just focus on the pickleball, but the golf simulators count too. Ambiance and music are fun, vibes are great. But better, more consistent service upstairs would be appreciated. Also, sometimes the games cut off early with no warning, and it would be nice to play your whole time or at least get a warning.

A nice mini distillery. They are going for a dark theme for their tasting room, they even covered…read morethe skylight with a tarp. Bar, tables with nice chairs, window into the industrial bay/still area. Restrooms, small shop. It needed more seating, it was fine when we were there but would fill up quickly Staff was nice. They were a little slow. Of their bourbons, I had the flight, only the 92 was not good. Prices were a little high, in particular for their mixed drinks.

Came here after going to dinner with a friend, he is a big spirits person, and I thought he'd like…read morethis place. When we arrived Saturday evening it had a group event going on, evidently speed dating , not put on by the distillery. It was interesting to see. We sat at the bar so we could talk to the bartender about what they had. I ordered a flight which offers 4 drinks for $15, seems like the best value. They were all very good to try. They also sell their products in bottles to go. They have whiskeys, bourbons, tequilas. It's quite a large location, in a light industrial building in Troy. The ambience is very cool. They have a private room available too. You can do tours there as well. Our bartender was amazing, very attentive and informative. She could talk just about anything.

Details: walking in you will immediately fall in love with the eclectic decor, it's quirky and themed and it has its own personality. The food was seriously delicious, that perfect cafe mix of fresh and comforting. I love the sweet potato goat cheese salad that I add salmon to, also the potato salad is delicious! Ive also been here for one of their events, line dancing, which was just so fun!!

I waited to post this for a little over a week because I've been recovering but here we go…read more Long story short: Food safe sensitive immune system- don't really go out to eat much. Maybe once a month. Came here with a friend. Host was incredibly overwhelmed and snappy with us. Short haired, older woman. We get seated. I order a chicken salad. When it comes I notice the whole dish smells a little funky. I notice the manager walking by so I wave her down and mention it. She's rushing and barely hears me out. I continue to eat it with her reassurance. Later, I'm woken in the middle of the night, very sick. Vomited for so many hours I went to the hospital and had to get a shot of anti-emetic. Not even a matter of if I wanted to come back here (they acted slammed while the seating in the building holds maybe 50 people all at once and they have a fully kitted staff) It's a matter of health and safety on whether I CAN come back.

It was a bunch of things I would never think to put together (the brisket, orzo "mac" and cheese, fried onions & molasses bbq sauce) and it was really good. My only real complaints are that they charge for bread and for salad. I guess charging for bread is becoming a thing; this is the second restaurant I've been to recently where they've done that. If their menu prices were lower, I could understand it, but with entrees at $20 - $40, I would expect at least a piece of bread and an accompanying vegetable.

Corned Beef egg rolls served with thousand island dressing, cheeseburger sliders, chicken tenders & mozz sticks which also could've made into chicken parm with marinara, as well as salad options. It was pretty good bar food honestly! The parking lot is large so it can accommodate many people and there was a small stage area where they set up microphones for speeches and it worked out perfectly.

It's been about a year since I've been here and the concept of this place still just blows my mind…read more It runs very well, and pretty much no staff. The business model is genius. A hostess who takes your money and gives you a bracelet, automated beer, and you use your phone to order from the kitchen, they text you and you go get your food. I wondered many times how they could serve alcohol and not monitor how much people were drinking? So I asked. The host is in the front said at the end of 32 oz is your bracelet will not work and you need to come up and see me to reset it. I guess that's how they would monitor whether or not someone could get another 32 oz? I'm surprised not more places have copied their business layout. With the new generation, this would be the place to go, you barely have to speak to anyone except for the people you're with.

North End Taproom is a great addition to downtown Royal Oak!…read more This self serving bar is a brilliant idea and top notch implementation. They have simple pricing per ounce, a self serve with wristband model, and don't accept tips. Also, there was a great variety of Michigan beer, cider, and wine to taste. It was so nice to get up and pour our own drinks throughout. The food menu was small but mighty. My group has never been disappointed by a food order here yet! My go to are the fish tacos. They were delicious and fresh. As for the sides, both the fries and chips are a knock out! To top it all off, this place has games! There was a variety of card and board games. My group ended up with Codenames; a classic. RUN don't walk to North End Taproom!!!
