    Greektown, Downtown Detroit

    Less of my ambivalent opinion was about the bar itself. We went there to check in for a bar crawl…read more Waited outside for 40 minutes. Once checked in we found a bartender quickly, got a shot and a beer. Uncomfortable metal stools and very few tables. No glass with a can of beer. Just meh...

    So just to be 100% honest, the well is definitely a dive bar. So you basically get what you get…read morewhen you come here. It has decent music so don't get it twisted, it has plenty of space, they're not a lot of seats though so you'll be standing around most likely. But is a dive bar vibe. Don't expect fancy martinis or anything like that. They always have specials though. So if you can't get your Tito's lemon drop, you can get two for five beers or something LOL. The service is what you would expect from a busy location. I mean, it's pretty much nothing but bar so with only like two bartenders you got to wait at the end of the day. So just be conscientious of that and give it Grace because you are getting a service that you expect to come to contact with while you walk into a dive bar. I've been going there for years. Well before I moved, it is a staple and I feel like it's never going to die. It is always consistent and it'll give you exactly what you need. It's really good for pre-drinking because of drinks are fairly cheap, so keep that in mind. If you do go, you might want to go ahead and consider parking. Parking is going to be street parking because there's no lot specifically for this establishment. But there is plenty of parking in after a certain time in Detroit it's going to be free. If you are going to go ahead and do the well, it's best to go ahead and start the night with that so you don't have to worry about too many expensive drinks your at your actual location. And then after that You may want to consider finishing the night there. After you've had all the fancy dinners and stuff, if you want to go ahead and wrap up the night with a couple of cheap drinks, this is the place for you.

    Service and the show are great! Love me some drag queen brunch! Weds Bingo, Sunday brunch, lots of…read moredrink options, food options and fun to be had. Great Birthday spot for celebrations! It's adorably decorated with so much fun kitsch and glitz... come in and love on your fav queens!!!

    Hamburger Mary's gave us a good time! We went for brunch on Saturday and I was personally nervous…read moreabout the fact that we were the only ones there. A party of maybe 8 did come into dine though and more people as time went on. However, I think it's safe to say we all had a blast. I can't remember the exact theme of the show but it involved cartoon characters and was just hilarious and so much fun. You can tell they put a lot of time and effort into their performances and they definitely made the birthday girl feel special as well. I ordered the Sassy Brunch Burger with fries and I had no complaints there. However, the food is pretty average which if you're more or less just focused on having a good time, then you'll enjoy or accept it. Do note that there used to be two locations, the other that's now permanently closed was near the water (some pictures of that location still show up in past reviews). The only location now is located downtown Toledo where I believe the only option is street parking. Also, I did not go on the second floor so I don't know what that all might entail. Overall, the service was quick and friendly. The show was a 10/10. The aesthetic and atmosphere is so cute and lively. They also have a full bar fyi. Thank you for a great time, HBM!
