Powell's Pub

I checked out Powells because I did not want to go home just yet. I have been here before. It is a local casual bar and spot for food. It has unpaved parking and sits not to far from the EMU district. On the outside there is an area to play various things like corn hole. On entering there is a bar and some seating. In the back there Is a pool table and music boxes. On certain days they have karaoke and even a dj. You can tell it is mostly locals. There is a full bar and food. The staff are very friendly. It is a great spot to grab a drink and some late night food. Their wings are also great. I will check it out again.

We returned for plentiful toasted almond shots. Yummm! The eclectic music selection is second to none-everything from the Doobie Brothers to Drake. Keep it coming!

Great little neighborhood bar. Service was great and very friendly. They have sold bar food and it came out quick. A fair amount of TVs for sports.

Best dive bar in town. Fried chicken wings are suggested. Open late during Covid all being outside.

Would never know this was a pub until you walk inside. Which makes it unique and kind of hidden. Food is always good, and they are open later than any place in town to grab a cold beer. Service has always been great.

This a five star review from a purely Ypsilanti nightlife perspective.Now this place is indeed a dive and small, but however it is a good time. Wednesday and Saturday (I Believe) is Karaoke night (Very Hype) and Friday night is turned into a mini makeshift nightclub (Good music/DJ and a nice crowd with something for everybody plus a little dance floor=Hype and a good time). I can also say that the drinks and beer here is cheap and will get you messed up. I have yet to have their food, but i have heard positive reviews from a few people. So if you live in this area or is a grown EMU student and have nothing to do, I definitely recommend this place to you.

Powells pub is nothing fancy, just an honest pouring working persons, college, local bar with the best burgers in Ypsi. Daily specials Monday is Trivia, Tuesday is .50 wings, Wednesday karaoke @ 930. I recommend this place for a good time and a honest drink

Definitely go with a group. Definitely expect a true dive bar. Crowd is definitely local and regulars so newcomers could easily feel a little out of place, but....that said, the group I was with love this place and as a group, we made our own fun and had a great night around a fire pit outside. Maybe it was the huge shots that kept coming our way? I dunno, but the service from the bar was great and we all left happy.

I'm gonna be honest: I miss Powell's. It's such a crappy dive bar that feels like an Ypsi staple. I'll take it any day over Tap Room. The food isn't fabulous but the beer is always cheap, they usually have cornhole outside, they've got pool tables and nice waitresses inside. I am always entertained when I go into Powell's. I used to go for Karaoke nights, which I miss the most. It was such a fun mix of drunk college kids, incredible underground karaoke stars, and Ypsi legends. They sell two hearted pretty cheap, and if I was like 3 drinks deep, their mozzarella sticks were pretty good too lol. I hope to one day belt it out at karaoke again and then smoke a cigarette out on their back patio.

Worst burgers the only thing good to order is the wings I get it dive bar but cigarettes,smell the bathrooms ughhhh I have to bring my own toilet paper because I just don't trust anyone bathroom's.
