Cadillac Lodge

The Cadillac Lodge is your one stop shop for all things COZY! After walking around downtown, stop HERE to warm up by the fire place, relax on some of the comfiest couches & indulge in the small winter menu that the lodge offers! There are snacks & holiday drinks available. Both warm & cold options for beverages. Endless cozy corners and tons of places for family photo ops. The vibes are immaculate and the service always comes with a smile from the employees! There are small games spread out on the tables and Christmas decorations galore! Make sure to stop by this holiday season to check this Lodge out, you won't regret it!

I've come to the Cadillac Lodge every holiday season for the past several years and each time I think I get a little bit more disappointed. First off, the decor remains the same each year, so it's just become a bit monotonous after a few years. Secondly, they have a capacity limit so if they're at capacity, you will be waiting outside for others to leave before you go in, which in and of itself is fine. My gripe is more with the fact that when you go in, the lodge is so packed, it's hard to find seating and incredibly overwhelming. I would recommend either more seating or set your capacity limit lower. I know this would mean probably a longer line during the busy times, but I think it would make for an overall better, more enjoyable experience for all once they get inside, making it overall more worth it. Just a suggestion!The couches and fun patio furniture are all super high quality and cozy. The food and drink selection is limited and overpriced, which is the other downside. I got a hot cider, my friends shared one of their alcoholic bevvies, but for the most part nothing else on their menu appealed to us, and I would honestly recommend you to just get a nice meal nearby as there are so many options in the area, ranging from fast casual all the way to fine dining.It's also important to note that you can take any of your drinks outside of the lodge. Alcoholic beverages, I can understand. But mine was a non-alcoholic hot cider and already in a to-go coffee cup and I wished there could be a distinction between the alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks as that it just a bizarre rule for the non-alcoholic ones when I would've really have liked to carry around a hot cider to warm my hands up while I was walking around Detroit.What might've been most mystifying were their list of holiday-themed shots! All of the names of the shots evoked a certain image of what might go into it, and it was always wildly different. For example, they had a shot called "Grinch Green Tea," but the ingredients in it were whiskey, peach schnapps, sour, and Sprite. Where's the tea?? Where's the green?? I'm confused lol.Overall, if you're in Cadillac Square checking out the shops, which is something I highly recommend, and even popping over to the Monroe Street Midway across from the square and need a place to duck into to warm up and get a bit of holiday cheer, I would recommend coming here. But I wouldn't recommend getting any of the food or honestly staying for all that long, because there is just a ton of other exciting things to be doing during the holiday season in downtown Detroit!

Went the day after Thanksgiving early afternoon and it was cute! Pretty busy though such that there was a line to enter (though it moved fast as there was also pretty much a constant flow of people leaving). It's at the end of the Cadillac holiday shops which have a nice selection of local goods. Fun to browse but can be hectic if it's busy since each shop is so tiny. The Lodge is a nice option for a tented place to warm up in the area. Food and drinks are a bit pricey (hot cocoa starting at $7) and nothing really special. I personally wouldn't plan to do a meal here. Less seating than there are people in the lodge, but with the turnover it wasn't too hard for us to find a spot to sit and sip our hot cocoas and ciders. The holiday decor is really cute. I don't think the lodge itself had bathrooms, but there were porta potties in the area. Not allowed to carry any drinks out (alcoholic or non-alcoholic).

Cadillac lodge is a cozy indoor outdoor lodge in downtown Detroit. It's got fantastic music, great couches and fires, and reasonably priced drinks and food. $7-$13 per drink. service is quick and everything is pretty clean. Took about 5 mins to get a drink

I love to visit Cadillac Lodge when I visit Detroit in December. It puts me in the holiday mood. It's a cozy lodge near other festivities like a holiday market, giant tree and skating. It gets busy, so you may need to wait but the line for drinks moved quickly. I can't wait to go back again next year.

I'm getting old. The price of Beer, it wasn't cheap. It was a nice atmosphere, my second year coming here for one night of the Christmas Season to see the tree. $8 for a 16oz Bud Light. The was the low end. It was warm in there, plenty of Tables out in the plastic tent. I've never been in the business itself, just the Christmas Tent.

We love Cadillac Lodge! Whether we stop in for a hot cocoa, or to relax in the cozy couches and warm up, this place is the perfect addition to Cadillac Square. The ambiance is so perfect. It's the best back drop in any photo op! You must come here on a date, or bring the family! It's perfect for all ages.

We were here to check it out during the winter before Covid. It has this fantastically warm feel, like the lodge it is. It's the most ideal to go during the holiday season and the ice rink at Campus Martius Park. Parking can be a challenge to get a decent spot nearby. I would recommend downloading the Detroit park, makes parking in Detroit much better. The interior is an enclosed clear tent. You would never know it once you are inside that it's a tent at all. The winter decor is so warm and inviting and cosy. It's a nice little sanctuary from the chill of the cold after skating on the Campus Martius rink or walking through the downtown markets at Cadillac Square.

Can't wait to come back this year! I moved in 2022 and got to go here and it was so cute, drinks were solid! Very festive and right next to campus Martius and cute local shops se yup in small glass cottages.

Every year, Cadillac Lodge has been such a joy to see! This year seemed to be a little more sparse, less blankets and pillows, but still warm, cozy, and enjoyable. My family has stopped by three times this year already. Grab some grub from Waffle Cabin or other food vendors nearby. Drinks inside are hot and delicious!The big table games are tons of fun for kids. Someone (a magical elf who just appeared out of nowhere) even came by to offer my children coloring packets and crayons while we waited for a game. There was a DJ at some point and I bet they have other events. Cross off the remainder of your nice list by finishing up your holiday shopping at the pop ups right outside the door. While there are fireplaces and it's cozy, dress warm. You may still want that coat and hat while you sit
