Hammer & Nail

Wow what a nice little gem we found! We were on the way to the majestic and found this place online. Romantic vibes. It had both an indoor and outdoor patio space. They had tasty drinks (our faves were the espresso martini and this melon drink that I forgot the name of). But I think my favorite part of the whole experience was getting sushi from the on site sushi spot!! We tried the omakase, and everything was amazing. You basically "name your price," and the chef will tailor a meal toward you. He did an amazing job, and we left super happy and full! All of the sushi dishes were unique, and I looooved the tangy rice. Can't wait to go back!

Came here in a whim. Cute little bar with sushi good options. Drinks are very strong, but good. Definitely a place for those who likes a strong drink. Parking is a little hard, so come early.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The mixed drinks they made my wife and I were delicious. The ingredients in the sushi rolls we ordered were very fresh and also tasted great. Will definitely visit again!!

First time back at this spot in a couple of years. We continue to enjoy this place. The art deco decor is excellent. Great views of Woodward. It is nice to find a place that isn't too loud and that you can typically find a seat in without waiting. Excellent drinks. Attentive bartender.

Recently reopened after being closed throughout all of COVID (as a result lost most of their staff so come and support this business)! Open currently on Sundays from 12-5 with a different DJ and rotating food trucks each week. Indoor and outdoor seating - very mid century mad men vibes at this spot! The drinks are well worth your money here and will definitely be giving you Sunday Funday vibes after 2 drinks. Pro tip: they're open only on Sunday's currently and street parking is free on Sunday's. It's a win-win.

Soooooo happy they're open again!They're open on Sundays only as of right now and have a live DJ and usually a food truck. Today everyone who bought a drink got a free Krispy Kreme Donut!

My husband and I stopped by Hammer & Nail before COVID hit. We had a lovely experience and can't wait to go back. You enter at the front of the building, not at the side. I think the bartenders are used to people TRYING to come in the side, so one of them kinda "shooed" us away from that door and pointed to the front.The space is galley-style with plenty of bar seating and a few two-tops. There were a few bartenders and it seemed like any of them would help us, meaning they likely pool their tips. The menu was a little... weird? for me, but I told one of the bartenders what I was into and he made me a delicious, strong concoction. My husband went with a funky cocktail off their menu and seemed to enjoy it. The menu features small plates of stuff you'd get served at a house party in the 50s, which is cheeky but nothing really appealed to me. This is a great spot to stop before going somewhere else for a nice dinner. I can't wait to come back to visit.

Here with friends, we've been wanting to try this place for a while. Very nice decor with a large bar and huge windows. The bartenders are super helpful and attentive, happy to review the drink menu and find something for your tastes. Tried a variety of cocktails and happy with all. Would definitely return.

Ambiance and drinks are both excellent! Sushi is okay, but I wouldn't recommend it for dinner. It's a nice snack while out for a drink, but rather disappointing if a meal is your goal.My fault for picking a cocktail bar for Valentine's Day, their fault for advertising a "5- course valentines dinner" that had 2.5 hour service (app, nigiri, two rolls, and mochi).

Outstanding sushi from Detroit Sushi in the Hammer & Nail cocktail bar! Great venue with floor to ceiling windows. We will be back!
