The Lone Goat

Stopped here for a drink. Very cozy pub style, very comfortable seating. Surprisingly more spacious than I originally thought. Friendly staff, however when we were there only the bar part was open, no servers, so I'm not quite sure what their service hours are. I loved the different beer selection and that everything is on theme. The food menu looked fantastic so I would like to go back to try it. I've also have been wanting to try a traditional English breakfast so if they could do a brunch or something to add that in it would be a nice treat.

I saw this online and I thought it would be a great pregame kind of place to grab a drink and something to eat. What a big mistake. The place is set up very awkwardly without any direction. We finally found a table we sat down it took forever for a waitress to come over and speak with us, we ordered right away so we could get our food and move on to our party, 45 minutes later our single hamburger and fish and chips finally arrived. The waitress came back only after we finished our meal and asked if we want another drink. Definitely a hard Miss.

Sorry this place didn't hit for me. I was pretty excited and I've been planning making the trip downtown to The Loan Goat. The day we picked was boxing Day the day after Christmas beautiful British celebration Day, and was excited to see The Lone Goat had a boxing Day special a Saugatuck draft beer and fish and chips for 15 bucks, Yes please that sounds good. Shortly after arriving the excitement faded, stepping in the place looked good but finding a good table proved to be a little tricky there's no service at the tables seat yourself and go to the bar and order your food and drinks. The layout inside kind of made it hard to find a table but we found one upstairs by the dart board it was kind of cold and I wouldn't say that the atmosphere was the best. But that's okay I'll head down to the bar for beer then order the fish and chips special and the saugatuck, as I wait at the bar for what seems a long time, jonesing for that beer l get service that wasn't that friendly, ordered a beer tried to get a smithwicks they were out of then got rushed to order another beer and picked something I didn't like. That's okay maybe next time it'll work out better. Drink my beer step back up to the bar, get snuffed again, ask about ordering the special, female bartender says she has no idea what I'm talking about they don't run specials. Stand there confused and then another bartender steps up informs her of the special, she comes back over and seems mad now, so I asked for the saugatuck but they don't have the saugatuck tells me it never came in and to pick something else, at this point the beer choices were not my favorite and I ended up with something else I'm not even sure what I got. As far as the food goes I did get the fish and chips and the wife got the Welsh Rarebit (one of the few vegetarian items) I would say neither dish was that good, the fish was pretty snotty, small pieces the batter was okay but kind of soggy and overall a fail in comparison to true British fish. The biggest fail was the Welsh rarebit bread was almost totally burnt what little bit of cheese stuff they put on top was dried up and disintegrated the wife did not enjoy. The food came out to our table that was okay and the place looked good but overall I didn't like the atmosphere. The food was a fail and the beer struck out. Trust me British is who I am. I'll be back hopefully next time it will be better.

Came in. Music is chill. There's 12 people here and lots of staff without things to do. Opened two weeks ago. Still trying to get their kitchen open and approved with the city of Detroit. The manger didn't greet me. However, I was served right away. I ordered a dirty martini, the glasses were all dirty, so I waited, the drink is good. Not filled all the way and my glass was soaked when handed to me.I was offered nuts in a plastic glass. The bartender is very sweet and kept his eye on me. I did come alone so I appreciated this. No outside space. There is an upstairs. Full bar, some craft beer and cocktail menu offered. Four more people walked in. So I hope this turns into a happening spot! It's right next to Sid's and across from The Brakeman.No parking. Street parking or lot. No reservation I think needed here. At least until the kitchen opens. Come with friends. It's pretty low key. Not a dive bar at all. More upscale. The manager seems to only talk to one girl. He's on his phone and picked up some glasses. He's been cleaning. Inside is pretty cool. Old photos of boats and stuff. The bar is pretty. I laughed at the old boat comment. But it's true. Old clippers. I've been here for maybe 10 minutes and more people have come in. Mix of old and young. The vibe is pretty cool. Check it out. I wouldn't rate my experience a five by any means. Just another local bar, which hopefully stays around for a while. 3.8 stars Doris approved.

We were downtown celebrating and were excited to check this new spot out. This is an English style pub. Having never been to England I couldn't really say if it was close to authentic, but my date assured me it was. We absolutely loved the atmosphere! I didn't go upstairs but I really should have. I wish they had more tvs because this would be an ideal spot for watching some Futbol! The service was fast and polite and the cocktails were delicious and unique. We definitely plan on coming back!

Cool new spot to the Detroit Scene. I've been waiting for this spot to open for several years! I love the English pub style vibe. Being newly open, they offer a variety of cocktails, beer and wine. I can't wait until they serve food.

Everything was AMAZiNG! Food, drinks, atmosphere, our bartender, Tara. We randomly walked and had a wonderful evening. Our new favorite place in Detroit.

Angie the bartender was amazing with her knowledge of beers. Ciders and wines. She also gave excellent suggestions on appetizers. The ambiance of the old world pub is very much like an English pub. We would recommend to friends and family or anyone looking for an excellent lunch, casual dinning or just drinks. We had a good time for all on our party visiting Detroit for the first time.

Good service , good food and love a pub style bar. Definitely would go back great place to hang by yourself or with friends.

Fish chowder was good, as was fish and chips. This is your ordinary ,' typical pub' bar. Nothing special.
