Nate and I stopped in on our most recent visit to Detroit and had a lovely experience. The space is tucked away but had a surprising amount of outdoor space--we were there in January but I'd love to come back in the summer. We were greeted right away and given a spot near the bar. The menu includes cocktails, lots of wine, and several tasty food options. It was quite busy inside, so it took a bit of time for our server to come over to us, but we weren't in a rush. They had ten cocktails on their list and I tried the bullet proof soul and Nate got the negroni alla perra. The ingredients list for some of the cocktails include things I've never heard of, but at a place like this, I just know it's going to be good. Our drinks were perfectly balanced and very tasty. We also ordered the mortadella sandwich to split--this was delicious. It was pretty messy, but worth it. It was perfectly toasted and full of mortadella. Everything on the menu sounded delicious and I would love to try more of the food options. Can't wait to visit again!

There's artwork, a skatepark, renovated houses, gardens and a church that is now an art gallery. We stopped in to check it out and sat at the bar for a cocktail and snack. The waitstaff were super helpful in explaining everything and we finally picked 2 apps and got drinks. Both were amazing. There were friendly patrons all around and we chatted with other bar admirers. We checked out the coffee shop, Warda, but didn't purchase anything then, but have had several of their desserts since then and they did not disappoint. The atmosphere is wonderful, indoor/outdoor bar, great outside seating - not sure how this will work in the winter? They also have very pretty stone paths with multicolor stones mixed in for a very peaceful beautiful look. It inspired me to add some multicolored stones to my garden! I can't wait to return.

The bar space isn't my vibe but I came to Two Birds for the pop up restaurant. I like that Two…read moreBirds frequently hosts different pop-ups regularly so I'll be returning just for the food. While I waited for my food I ordered a non-alcoholic drink. I like that non-alcoholic drinks are cheaper than alcoholic drinks. Some places want to charge the same amount for both and that's ridiculous to spend over $12-15 for a drink with no alcohol. Service is so-so. I ordered the Imagine non-alcoholic cocktail. The menu states that it is made of guava, lemon, cherry, dulce de leche. Unfortunately, I didn't notice any guava, lemon, or dulce de leche. It was just a cherry drink. I assumed they didn't have the ingredients to make the cocktail I ordered.

The one thing I didn't like was the $16 Michigan Reisling. That seemed like kind of a crazy price for freaking Reisling.... From Michigan.

The ambiance is pub style with old tin ceilings and a large scotch selection behind the old bar. There is even a large area outside in the backyard to enjoy a cold beverage or two.

Everyone is friendly, lots of locals, and some type of entertainment or activity every night except Sundays. Friday night is Karaoke, and live entertainment starts in the early evening on Saturdays.

We saw a large biking group there but overall, it was very quiet when we were there. The bartender was nice and we enjoyed a few small beers and a Casamara Club (non-alcoholic beverage made in Detroit!). The Alta flavor of the Casamara Club was a bit too black licorice-y for my taste but I'm super interested in trying other flavors- fun to try and I'm really glad they had it. They also have food trucks so that was a fun addition to the evening. It's always great to explore different places in Detroit!

I will say though that it can get a little bit loud but that's part of the hopping pub experience.
