    Grilled cheese and soup
    Lauren J.

    I love this place. Always quick and fun service. Always delivious food. And such a spectacular time again with friends. I love this neighborhood pub.

    Ice cold beers and 2 studs.

    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!!!

    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

    Teriyaki steak sandwich

    Great drinks and sandwiches both were awesome!! Make sure to get the fancy fries as one of your choices we had the truffle with parmesan. Excited to try the Saturday or Sunday brunch!!

    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!

    Vegan Tomato Soup!

    I love Woodbridge! Excellent place to stop for lunch or drinks or both! Great people, nice vibe! Located in the Woodbridge district of Detroit on the historic Trumbull across from the Wayne State Football Stadium!

    Chicken + waffle from the brunch menu
    Jayson D.

    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!

    Live music
    Mikayla O.

    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.

    The best birria quesadillas

    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.

    Birria hash and chicken and waffles.
    Adrienne W.

    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.

We came in sat at the bar and got our drinks in an instant. Our server was quick and got the job done. I ordered a whiskey and Coke 10/10 because Maker's Mark and Coke don't miss. Also ordered macaroni and cheese 6/10 pretty good for a bar. I proceeded to lose miserably in pool because I am a beginner. I will definitely return for pool lessons

    Very disappointing first experience…read more My companion and I visited McShane's in Corktown for the first time and sat down at the bar. We waited approximately 3-4 minutes while the bartender talked with other staff and lingered nearby. During that time, he never acknowledged us, never made eye contact, never said "I'll be right with you," and never asked if we wanted anything to drink. He was close enough to know we were there, and we were clearly new customers sitting at the bar with no drinks in front of us. After waiting without even a simple greeting, we decided to leave and try the outdoor bar instead. I asked the bartender outside if he was the bartender, and he said yes. He remained seated, continued talking with a group of women, and again made no effort to ask what we wanted or explain how service worked. I even mentioned that we were new there, but that didn't change anything. At that point, we decided to leave altogether. As we were leaving, instead of trying to help or understand why we were walking away, the interaction became dismissive and argumentative. I don't expect instant service, especially if a bar is busy. I do expect the basic courtesy of being acknowledged. A simple "I'll be with you in a minute" would have been enough. Instead, we were left feeling unwelcome and ignored by two different bartenders. We took our business elsewhere, and unfortunately, our first impression of McShane's was that new customers simply weren't a priority.

It's…read moreone of those spots you naturally end up at before or after a show, and it has that classic dive bar vibe that could be so good. But if you know crowds are coming when shows let out... you've gotta be ready for it. Two bartenders for a packed bar just wasn't cutting it. I waited about 20 minutes for a drink and eventually just gave up, which is frustrating when you're trying to enjoy a night out. And the one drink I did get earlier honestly looked like a sample cup. The place felt kinda dirty and weirdly quiet (before the rush)? Like super dark (which I get, dive bar) but no music or energy to balance it out. It just felt off. I've been here a few times now hoping it would hit different, but it hasn't yet. If you're the owner reading this, I'd just say plan for those post-show rushes. Even one more bartender and a little boost in atmosphere would go a long way. I'll probably still swing back because of the location, but man... I'd love to actually enjoy it next time.

    Be warned! Kinda shady!…read more The friendly dive bar appearance ends when they automatically add a their own 15%+ tip to your credit card tab. Do they verbally tell you this? NO. Is it printed in small type on the credit card slip? YES. But wait....it gets worse. upon looking more closely At the charges....my drink tab was $98 and the second "tip" charge was $30 Had I been drinking and maybe not looked carefully enough at my Bill? YES. Do I feel this is wrong? DEFINITELY My advice is to pay cash and control this foolishness. Outside of being swindled, the staff was friendly and we had a good time.

I thought the saloon-type entry doors were a fun touch. I liked the atmosphere, too. The menu is wide-ranging, from breakfast any time to burgers, salads and sandwiches. I don't drink alcohol often, but I noticed they had a good selection of hard cider. I decided to get the one that was on the top of the menu -- something with pineapple. It was sweet but very good. My sister had the Honest John's hard cider that was on draft. It wasn't as sweet, but it was good as well. I had the grilled johnny john sandwich -- chicken, swiss cheese, tomatoes, lettuce on grilled pita. It was very filling; I only ate half! My sister had the chicken Caesar wrap, with the same result.

Perfectly cooked, juicy, and loaded with flavor, with that golden grilled bread and melty goodness that makes every bite better than the last. It's comfort food done right. And the frozen mimosa? So good. Refreshing, smooth, and dangerously easy to sip. It's the kind of drink that makes you want to stay for "just one more." Between the food, the drinks, and the fun atmosphere, Honest John's is a whole vibe. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to -- and bringing friends with me next time.
