I pray to God they never take the grilled cheese off the menu. (I mean it) (But actually there isn't a bad thing on this menu and it's a great place to gather with friends. They do live music often and it can get kinda loud, but other than that: forever a fan of this place!) read more

Ever heard of a Shrimp Birria Quesadilla? I didn't either until I went here lol. Normally I'm not a "pubber" which is probably not a word lol but my Brother brought me here and I'm forever grateful lol. The Shrimp Birria Quesadilla and Rosemary Garlic Fries every time for the win! To-Go or quick sit down vibe at a cool Woodbridge Pub with a great staff, has never let me down. read more

This is a cute neighborhood pub with some vegan options (try the tomato soup! - yum). They were busy and service was a little slow, but overall the atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely go back and look forward to sitting on the patio next time. read more

While this place has a TON of potential its biggest area of need for improvement is its service. Our visit was almost three hours long due to mostly the lack of service. Arrived, had to find someone for menus, had to get up and find someone to order drinks from, someone yelled to someone to go help us. It was NOT busy. Then got up to order food with someone, got up again to get drinks, 40 mins later asked for our food, it came out cold or room temp. Found someone again to ask a question for a drink, he walked outside and never came back with an answer. When we did get an answer, the server came over with bitters and told us to smell it. Had to find someone for boxes, asked for a split tap, they gave us one, then as we were leaving asked if we cashed out. The soft served Margs are great! Paying .$0.60 for a Tajin topping was unnecessary on an already $16 drink. Food would have been really good had it been fresh out of the kitchen and not like warm. For 3 of us it was a $200 bill and I did most of the work myself. We would've have continued to order drinks if someone would have been checking in on us. If this is a self serve place they need to tell you when you walk in the door. read more

I love this little place. It has all the charm of a dive bar but a better ambiance. The bar/restaurant is clean. The menu is surprisingly unique for a place of this nature. I ventured here specifically for the vegan birria tacos. To my surprise they had several vegan items on the menu. So, my dining partner and I were so excited to spend an evening here. We shared the vegan birria quesadillas, vegan grilled cheese and vegan tomato soup. We also tried the truffle fries. Everything was fresh, well crafted and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Parking is relatively easy though they don't have a parking lot, you must park on the street. But, we've been back a few times and didn't struggle to find a spot on the street. They also have live music in some evenings which tops off a relaxed night out. The crowd and staff are diverse and service is great. read more

The food was definitely good It's bar food but a bit elevated. The crispy cauliflower wings with honey chalupa sauce was so good. I had the birria tacos and those were great too!! Our server was prompt & polite. I'd definitely go back and recommend it to anyone. Cute neighborhood & nice patio read more

What a great find. Was at a basketball game at the Wayne State field house and was craving a cold beer and a burger... found this neighborhood gem steps away. Amazing gourmet bar food. The service was great, the decor was super cool, the bar was packed, atmosphere was perfect, and the drinks were ice cold. Couldn't have asked for more. I would definitely go back again!!! read more

I have to say, had a carryout order of the Birria Quesadillas. OMG, it was fantastic even rewarmed in the microwave. The dipping consommé is a must have. Two thumbs up guys. BIG HIT!!! read more

Great service with decent food! Loved stopping in here before and after the game and we will for sure do it again! The venue is small and it makes for a great vibe. They have traditional booths, tables and a bar, but they also have bar tops and comfy chairs. A great touch to this neat spot! Note - the spinach dip is not your traditional dip. It's good, just different! * did not try the iced tea read more

The goal of our evening was for him to take me to as many places I haven't been in one night! He did a fantastic job at making the best of the night despite the bitter cold temps. Woodbridge was on his list so we stopped in for a beer. He got a PBR and I chose a dirty blonde. Can't go wrong with either! I enjoyed the atmosphere. It was warm and inviting. There was a lot to see. Until, of course, I got locked in the bathroom. I mean leave it to me. But clearly this happens all the time. I don't typically bring my phone in with me. But thankfully this time I grabbed it. I had to call my date to help me! The bartender came and got me out. So embarrassing. Ha. But there is always something fun to laugh about. We looked over the menu but nothing really piqued our interest so we chose to move on. I for one won't ever forget this place haha! read more

Saturday brunch menu is quaint but thorough as it offers up a nice variety of savory and sweet. I opted for the chicken + waffle entree. Really big tenders were breaded perfectly to leave the chicken still juicy inside. Waffle was decent. The waffle was "gourmet" topped with some sort of blueberry sauce, but I would have been plenty satisfied with butter and syrup. Next time I'll skip the gourmet and keep it classic. But maybe you'll like the blueberry sauce--see what you think! Prices were fair and service was great. If ever I'm in this part of the D again I'd go back! read more

So we totally found this place by accident, but it is a gem! It was PACKED on a Sunday night like you'd expect on a Friday. The live music was a nice touch and they had a really great jazz line up. (The music is a bit on the louder side, so if that is something that bothers you take note) The liquor selection is impressive, and they also feature CBD infused sparkling waters. The staff/manager was on top of greeting guest, and getting items out quickly. Cleaning tables promptly and just keeping the place tidy! Everything that came out of the kitchen smelled incredible! Cant wait to go back. read more

This place is a gem that makes you feel proud to be a part of the beautiful city of Detroit. The handcrafted cocktails, the staff, and the owner takes so much pride in making this place special for everyone. The food was delicious. We had a large group, everything came out fresh, and perfect. I highly recommend the cauliflower bites, chicken wings with that delicious barbecue sauce that is made from scratch, the roasted Brussel sprouts, and the birria quesadillas. Truly a great place to visit and stay awhile. read more

Great brunch spot! The live DJ played all the best Afrobeats songs (should've asked for the playlist). I had the chicken and waffles and my friend had the birria hash. The chicken was SEASONED and fried hard. Whose black uncle is back there cooking?! And the orange glaze on the chicken was the perfect balance of sweetness/acidity. I'll be trying the rest of the brunch items and ordering the chicken and waffles again...& again. read more

True to the eclectic nature of New Center/Midtown Detroit you can expect to see a wide range of interesting people at this establishment. College students, a patched group leather cut-off vest Harley Davison riders, construction workers in uniform, a family of seven with children chasing butterflies, and a family dressed like they are ready for Baptist church can all be eating or drinking here when you visit. The real star of this pub is surprisingly the food. Have to get the Szechuan rub that comes on the chicken fingers, unexpectedly delightful spice that numbs your mouth. In the summertime the outdoor space makes for a good dose of vitamin D, a gentle breeze makes it a perfect afternoon/evening. read more

The reason this is five stars is that it does what it intends to do. It has a neighborhood, college vibe. Good service. Good food. We go often and are always happy we did. read more

Love this place! Was surprised that they offered so many vegan and vegetarian options. The servers are no bullsh*t ,which I honestly the honesty is appreciated. Great pub vibe with an amazing drink selection and surprisingly modern food menu. Try the wings! read more

I didn't use to like this place but I gave it a second chance this summer. I can't believe how much good gluten free food they have. It's a great around the corner restaurant/bar. I wish the bartenders could make better mixed drinks though. read more

The best rueben I've ever had! The sauerkraut is pickled with a unique flavor and placed on the sandwich as a whole leaf rather than the normal shredded presentation and served on ciabatta bread. Corned beef comes from Eastern Market. The atmosphere is a an absolute vibe! Highly recommend! Yorick provided great service. read more

Eeeek. Although I've had a good experience here in the past, I believe I've written Woodbridge off my list of places to eat. My husband and I stopped in for brunch and saw mimosas on the menu... $11 for a carafe. That's comparable to the carafe at Northern Lights, so we were about to order. UNTIL I saw the bartender actually make the mimosa... she poured some bubbly into the carafe about 35% full, then used the bar-gun orange juice to fill it up the rest of the way. Barely any booze and super-low quality "orange juice"? No thanks. Protip: Northern Lights uses an ENTIRE BOTTLE of bubbly for their mimosa and fills the remaining 250ml with OJ from a gallon jug. Mimosa aside, we checked out the menu and decided on some eats. I went with the Monte Cristo $9 and Jacob got the Huervos Rancheros $9. Our food took quite a while to get to us, but it appears there were a few people who ordered before us. Once our food came up, I was bummed to find the Monte Cristo wasn't served with any type of preserves or jam as it traditionally is. I had to ask and was given jelly. The sandwich wasn't very cheesy or meaty. It was dry, too. Jacob's meal was okay but mostly eggs with very tiny bits of veggies throughout. The service was lackluster but not necessarily bad. I'd just like to have been asked how my meal was, and I'd love to not wait fifteen minutes for the bill when we're visibly done with our meal. Overall, not a great brunch spot. The food was boring and uninspired and the service left much to be desired. read more

Great place for an after work beer and bite. I've been here several times. The menu is limited but carries a lot of different items from veg to meat eater.

Came here looking for bottomless mimosas and was sad to find out I was misinformed but my goodness what a great discovery anyway. First of all, it was one of the most beautiful days an autumn could ever hand us. Mid to Hugh 70s, no humidity, just a nice cool day that threatened on warm, and with any sort of physical exertion it would have crossed that border. Luckily for my sweat glands and my sweater, most of physical exertion was limited to pouring mimosas from carafe to glass. Even though they were not bottomless per se, a big ol' carafe was merely 10 buckaroos so well it worked out about the same for my typical consumption. Secondly, the food. Boom shakalaka boom boom! This was the most delicious hash I've ever tasted bar none. I think it is however they prepare the mushrooms, but the flavor ohhhhhhh the flavor cascading over my tongue and being swished around my mouth. I can't remember the last time I've enjoyed a meal this much. And finally the staff. I was sitting at the bar and I have nothing but great things to say about the friendliness and attentiveness that was provided. I will flail myself thoroughly when I get home because I'm shocked and chagrined that I've waited so long to try this. Highly recommended! read more

Yes and no. Food is great. (Pesto grilled cheese and tomato soup 100!!) Drinks are over priced. Service is mostly great. I really like some of the bartenders. All of there wells are aristocrat or Mr. Boston. $11 bottles. They're charging $9 a pour for corazon a $22 bottle of tequila. My service was outstanding. But the quality of drinks don't match the price. I wish I wanted to go there more. If you're in the service industry and know what things cost probably not for you. But maybe they're more lenient with people they know. I don't know. But if you want to pay downtown prices for subpar liquors this is the place. read more

Disturbing Trans...ition Has Dylan Mulvaney been brought in to consult on staffing and clientele? We discovered this place about a year ago and were excited about it because it's not far from home - just below West Grand - has good natural light and a great pub atmosphere and chatty and interesting MALE bartenders and customers . Often we were surprised at the sophistication of topics covered, and the drinks were generously poured and cheap. Recently though things have changed: all the men have been purged. No male bartenders and no male customers. Indeed, Friday afternoon, I thought I had walked into a lesbian bar. The customers were all women and so was the staff. Is this place going the same route as Hammer and Nail in Midtown which was a great Gentleman's bar until Whitmer trashed it during Covid and then went all girl in its next incarnation, which was an immediate disaster and it died from PC suicide. Oddly enough guys like to drink with other guys and when there aren't any, we go elsewhere. Look around. Detroit has an amazing history of men's clubs and men's bars and when you meddle with that tradition uninvited, the result tends to be disastrous. read more

Met a friend here for drinks and dinner. Very nice interior. Sat at the bar and ordered a CBS. After catching up we ordered. He got wings and I got the Jalapeño Popper Burger. If you like a medium it's only available for the 8oz burger. At first I was a bit miffed because I wanted the smaller portion. But I realized that it was a form of quality. Better to admit limitations than promise what you can't deliver. Burger was good and my friend enjoyed his wings. read more
