    Bar at the AC Hotel Detroit at the Bonstelle.
    Carol Lynn N.

    We were downtown looking for a bar to hang out at after our DSO concert (rather than spending an eternity waiting to get out of the parking garage), and this lovely spot popped up as "open late" and a 5 minute, .2 mile, walk from Orchestra Hall. It's a gorgeous bar/small plates restaurant with such warm ambiance it's hard to decide whether to cozy up to the bar, a table, or one of the lovely conversation spots scattered in the lobby. We chose cocktails from the menu which were fresh and delicious, and the bartender even made up a small "just one of my own" for my spouse to try as he loves Manhattans (I think ). We also ordered from the tapas menu and I'm so sorry I forgot to get a photo, but I will next time. The chicken skewer was delicious and just what we needed post concert. We'll definitely be back after our next concert and we're planning a future stay at the hotel as well! The Conservatory is open til midnight on Friday and Saturday for drinks and 11:15pm for the kitchen. Hurry, go try it out! *Photos are not my own, but from the website*

    Food is good but small portions for the price. This is in a hotel lobby but is a beautiful space. Sangria is very good! Service was nice and the place was quiet

    Wonderful setting for a bar, feels like a greenhouse with the glass roof. Appropriately called the "conservatory". Located within the AC hotel, this is part of the newer development opening in downtown Detroit. Having a delightful cocktail called "The Sword". Well balanced and mildly sweet due to Persimmon Liquor. Highly recommend. Looking forward to trying the Spanish forward food menu with standards such as Potatas Bravas and Tortilla. Lisa and staff are quite kind.

    This whole place is such a summer vibe. There is a little something for everyone…read more It was a bit confusing when we first arrived. Here is the lay of the land: Check in at the little red table in the center of the outdoor courtyard if you want "full service". - which means eating and drinking at a table with wait staff. It is not seat yourself at the outdoor tables, like we originally thought. There is a nice sized bar indoors and seating at the bar is first come first served. We ordered several of the small plate "snacks" and I can tell you that the hummus is not to be missed. It is served with (homemade?) tortilla chips that are absolutely addictive. They have lots of choices for wine, beer, and cocktails. Towards the back entrance of the property, there is a drink truck where you can also order "walkaway" food and drinks. Not entirely sure where you sit with the food/drinks you order, as most of the seating seemed reserved for full service. Additionally, there is a photo booth for pics (long line) and Warda Patisserie is right next door and accessible through a garden walkway.

The inside restaurant area is also beautiful. We wanted to sit inside at the bar, so we waited for some seats to open up. If you want to sit outside, all you have to do is order at the bar and they'll serve your drinks in plastic cups for you to take outside. The rhubarb pie punch was so delicious I had to order it twice! Probably one of my favorite cocktails I've ever had. I also ordered the maurixio cattelan, which tasted like ginger ale. For a snack before dinner, we chose to get the burrata and it was so refreshing. The service was great and our bartender was super friendly! The logo with the little lamb is adorable. I bought one of their wine glasses with their logo on it too for just $10.

Our server was very welcoming and helped to set up our food order into courses that allowed us a very relaxing evening Cocktails were really good. I had a Last Word and it was very well done. The restaurant is decorated very nicely with warm wood trim. The bar area looked stellar and very French-bistro like. I will sit there next time No so Highs Food was good, but just OK. Between the two of us we had the beet salad, burger and steak tartare. Burger was good, but not the best smash burger that I've had. Beet salad was fine, however the cream cheese was a bit overpowering against the orange oil. It was dying for some citrus. Steak tartare was a bit dry, meaning that a small dab of olive oil would have added to the richness and overall mouth feel. I did not really taste the egg although I did see a dab of yolk on the tartare. Needed a bit of salt also to enhance the taste Menu was small, but it did cover a cross section of French bistro dishes. All in all, I thought it was a bit overpriced. So I will have to consider returning for a full meal. I would come back for a burger and beer at the bar.

Located in the basement level of an1880's Victorian mansion. Vibe is cozy, cool, eclectic. Drinks are crafted to complement the scent notes of their perfumes. Menu changes seasonally. Ellie was bartending this evening (and she's excellent). Two fav drinks were Land of Origin and Dust & Clay. Small bites like nuts (specially made for them by the Detroit Nut Co.) and charcuterie boards are available. Take home items like perfumes, candles, spirits, and apparel are available. Parking is easy and mostly free on the street. Special little place in a great neighborhood. Make reservations for the tastings or walk in.

They have scents for sale, one of the co-owners wrote a book that I highly recommend if you have an interest in science behind spirits. You can make a reservation online that includes your drinks and gratuity. Or take a chance to walk in for a seat at the bar. They've had curated educational experiences that dive tried including the science behind gin, sole gin, and even bartending. I've not tried the scent making but hope to before 2026 changes. I found Castalia during lockdown and bought cubes that helped me make cocktails at home. Been hooked ever since. Worth a visit nonetheless!
