Park Bar

I was on my way to a see a show at the Fox and as my friends and I were walking past, we noticed the Park Bar and all of their Christmas Decorations. We only had a couple minutes but could not pass up the opportunity to stop in. We decided to check it out for one quick drink. I LOVED it!!! They served the most delicious drink in the cutest holiday cups!!! The bartender was so nice and helpful. He knew we were in a hurry and made our drinks quickly. This will definitely be my go to spot next holiday season! --Side note: my friend actually thought it was such a special experience that she got me Christmas mugs like the ones we drank out of for Christmas

Everyone who knows me knows my love for Michigan craft beers! When I saw Night Tripper on tap I was all set!! Bar tenders are super fun and do a great job keeping up. We usually come here before a Tigers game, but we decided to have a few drinks before a show at the Fillmore and it was still a cool atmosphere. FOOD: it seems like the menu has a modern Asian feel to it. We ordered a dish that had a fried wonton bowl and was filled with egg roll stuffing...pretty good. Side-note: the place could be cleaner. From counter tops to bathrooms.

Met up here with all the coworkers before a Tigers game. Like that the bar is round, and when you sit at it, you can keep up with everything going on around it. Not crazy about their 'retro' office furniture though, they are cloth seats so if something gets spilled on it, which happened while I was there, the chair could not be used.

Went here on a non-Tigers Saturday night hoping to get the poke (bowls of rice with a combination of fish and veggies). It wasn't very busy so they weren't selling poke that night since the fish is so perishable. Their menu is a Hawaiian/Asian menu with plate lunches that include a salad, macaroni salad, rice, and main dish (garlic shrimp, broccoli in peanut sauce, shoyu chicken thighs, teriyaki steak, loco moco which a hamburger with fried egg on top). It is a huge amount of food for the money and it was really delicious. The salad dressing that I had was creamy tofu and it had a nice kick to it. They also have things like seaweed salad, edamame, and some holo dogs (sausage on a bun). Jerry, the owner, was friendly and interesting. The bar tender and chef were also really nice. Food was ready really quickly, too. A really cool bar where they get to know regulars. Hey, Tigers fans, try the food!! I guarantee that you will like it. Get outside your comfort zone!

The ever so trusty Park Bar. I love this place,, just because there's no drama, no gimmicks, just an awesome place to go with friends have a drink and shoot the breeze. Craft beers on tap listed on the blackboard on the wall. Almost any cocktails you can think of plus none of the "I just turned 21" crowd.This is probably one of my go to spots for drinks in the city. Specially if I just want a beer. Wait for the crew to assemble, or end the night for a final drink. I must mention if you're also looking to eat something. The brand new legendary Hawaiian hole in the wall joint is partnered with them. The servers will gladly take your order, and bring em back to you at your table. It's a win-win situation for you and the servers. You get food and they get bigger tips. Weeeeeee!!Service is amazing here,, never have I had a bad experience. Plus the atmosphere is not snooty and everybody seems to be welcome here. Plus with late night bites like, musubi, poke, fried rice and so on. Definitely beats chicken wings or chicken fingers with fried potato sticks. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Thanks for reading my review. I hope this helps. Enjoy your amazing yelptastic day!!

Stopped in for cocktails before dinner downtown. The holiday menu/Miracle takeover is fantastic! Every inch of the bar is decked out in holiday finery, right down to the tabletops. We tried the Chrismapolitain, the Partridge in a Pear tree and the yipee ki yay mother******. They were all strong, but delicious. The yippee was based on a sweet potato casserole with hints of citrus and marshmallows. The Partridge served up ample amounts of pear, smoke and bitters, in a good way.They have a small snack menu, but we were trying to save room for dinner. Next visit, I would love to try out the homemade Chex mix and the terrine and pickles, yum!

Currently a Christmas pop up bar. Totally decorated for the season. Even the bartenders are dressed like elves, etc. some really good craft drinks at $12,$13 a drink. Believe they are associated with the skip bar - a few blocks away.

I'd definitely suggest stopping in at Park Bar especially over the holidays. This year they have transformed into Miracle's pop-up Christmas themed bar which appears in bars all over the country. Last year The Skip hosted Miracle pop-up bar which was awesome but it's even better at Park Bar since it's a much larger space and can accommodate a lot more people and larger groups and feels less squished than at The Skip. Park Bar is located right next door to Cliff Bells and isn't too far from LCA, The Fox, and Fillmore so makes a great place to stop after a show. When you enter you'll notice Christmas lights everywhere, Christmas music playing, and large brightly wrapped presents hanging from the ceiling over the circular bar in the center of the establishment. There is seating around the bar and several tables around the perimeter and a few booths as well. The decorations were so festive and attentive to detail. We sat by a Christmas tree and windows covered in snowflake windows clings and every table is even decorated with a snow covered reindeer scene center piece. Even the bathroom was completely covered in shiny tinsel! The festive atmosphere at Park Bar definitely puts you in the mood for the holidays. If that wasn't enough Christmas cheer, the Miracle menu has excellent Holiday Spirits and I'm not talking about the kind in A Christmas Carol. There are ten holiday themed cocktails and naughty and nice shots. Most drinks are around $12. The menu was pretty similar to last year but changed slightly. My go-to is the Yippie Ki Yay Mother F*****! because Die Hard is a Christmas movie and also this drink is a delicious tropical rum drink with subtle hints of sweet potato flavor served in an adorable Santa Pants mug! What more could you want?! My friend ordered the Jingle Balls Nog, a cinnamon, cherry, vanilla, nutmeg eggnog drink that she said tasted like Christmas in a cup. It was a little small though and is served in an adorable miniature Christmas coffee mug. Although not on the menu, make sure to ask about the Christmas cookies. I believe they bake a different kind each day and for $5 you get two cookies wrapped in a cute cellophane festive wrap. We split the ginger cookies and they were so delicious. If you fall in love with the festive mugs, they also sell them for around $18. We had a great time here. We came after the Eve 6 concert pretty late and there were only a handful of people here but I'm sure it's getting busier here since we're getting even closer to the holidays. If you have time, definitely stop by The Skip after, as they are hosting Beach Bum Barry's Sippin' Santa tiki themed Christmas Bar.

This review is for the Miracle Christmas bar that happened over the holidays in 2018. There are pop up Christmas takeovers that happen all over and Detroit has had one for the past couple of years. I read about this one online and thought it would be fun to check out while my boyfriend and I were in town for the Lions game around Christmas. They do take reservations but we stopped by hoping to grab a seat at the bar. We were able to find some standing room by the rail over to the side of the bar. The whole bar was decorated with lights, greenery and garland, fun ornaments and table top items, and presents hanging from the ceiling. All the bartenders and servers were dressed in holiday sweaters too. The drink menu was holiday themed with festive names and they all come in Christmas glasses. I got the Yippie Ki Yay, which is supposed to be sweet potato casserole themed, and my boyfriend got the eggnog. Both drinks were delicious! The eggnog tasted like you want an adult eggnog to taste like - rich, creamy, and boozy! The mug it came in was so cute and you could even purchase a set of them for $20. I was tempted but passed this time. My drink was also wonderful - it was actually very refreshing and had a tropical feel to it and it wasn't heavy at all. Drinks are around $12-$13 which was a little high but worth it for the fun experience.

I have seen so many cockroaches at this bar its disgusting. The owner doesn't care because he doesn't have to deal with the bugs. If you look into the crack where you can walk into the bar then you will most likely see 2 antennas sticking out but not a t.v. those are cockroaches. Wouldn't be surprised if the kitchen also had roaches. All the beers on tap pour mostly foam taking 4 minutes to pour one beer. Ahhh good ol Detroit.
