The Sugar House

On a visit to Detroit this weekend, my dear friends decided to take me to Sugar House. They spoke about the quality and variety of the cocktails at Sugar House. I did a quick search on Yelp to see what SH was about and was pleasantly surprised and excited about my visit. It was a rainy day, so it was a great place to go with good friends. My friends did tell me we would be lucky if we got a spot because it is a popular spot. We got lucky and got a table. The vibe was cool. The music was great. The interior decorations were different, but definitely went with a speakeasy vibe. They had cocktails for all type of drinkers and non-drinkers. They had drinks for people like gin, chartreuse, rum, bourbon, and vodka. I initially picked a drink from one of theme artist drinks because it had chartreuse. I chose the Very Superstitious. It was nice and very tasty. Due to my love of chartreuse and not being able to get a lot of cocktails with chartreuse, I also picked the Champs Elysees cocktail. It was light and refreshing. I would definitely go back to Sugar House for the vibes, the drinks, and overall experience. The cocktails were priced fairly and they're over 70 options choose from. This is a must visit when visiting Detroit.

My wife and I went to the Sugar House on 2/22/25 for some delicious cocktails before her birthday dinner at another establishment. The "Model T" on the new cocktail menu is . Every time I've been to the Sugar House it's been busy so reservations are recommended, especially on the weekend. We had such a good time while we were there that we signed up for the Mixology 101 on the following Saturday. I'm hoping to learn some skills so I can entertain friends and family at home. They also offer other classes that are specific to a particular type of spirit so if you're interested, details and upcoming dates are available on their social accounts.

The Sugar House has something for everyone! Ambiance gives visiting an old mansion with tons of antiques everywhere, during prohibition times. Their menu is my favorite, it's got dozens of cocktails categorized by your tastebuds. The aesthetic & presentation of the drinks is always immaculate and the bar staff is my favorite. Service literally always comes with a smile here. The menu is still QR code I believe so when you sit down, you will scan the QR code on the table to view the menu. Truly an incredible and unique place for a drink!

This is a diamond in the rough. The customer service is outstanding! Can't brag enough about it! It's a smaller bar, and it's very dark inside;the candles provide little lighting. There is a small outdoor seating area in the back as well. The walls are covered with stuffed animal heads and pictures of antique people. The music is welcoming whilst you can always hear the bartenders mixing those drinks with passion and elbow grease. Remarkably, the menu has over 101 drinks to choose from! So be prepared to take time looking that over. They currently have a summer drink list that the bartenders made. I favored the Raspberry one (I forgot the name of it). Overall, the vibe is very positive and calm with a very diverse customer base.

We stopped by on a whim at the recommendation of a friend and absolutely loved it!! Their cocktail menu is extensive with 101 classic cocktails plus an Olympic themed special cocktail menu. They also have a large selection of spirits like bourbon. The cocktail glossary in the menu was a nice touch.The inside is fairly small with a bunch of small tables along with a bar. There is an outdoor area in the back with a few tables.The cocktails themselves were delicious and unique. They don't have real food but do you have popcorn and cashews on hand. I would definitely go back!

I was in Detroit on a trip and stumbled upon this bar. Seriously such a great bar! They had over 100 drinks to choose from, they all tasted amazing. The service was so attentive and great. The ambiance was exactly what I was looking for in a casual but ambient bar. If I ever come back to the Detroit area I would definitely swing by again.

This place always gives me the era of the "Roaring 1920's Vibe .The interior decor is spot on! It's the perfect place to go and have a pallet experience of a variety of well made mixed drinks. It's also a great place to take a date. It's dark, and intimate . The mixologists are very acknowledged of all the liquor served . Be amazed and sit at the bar. You won't be disappointed.

Wow- this place is dangerously awesome. Amazing drinks and amazing vibe. Love, love this place. We could've easily stayed all night but had a couple drinks and promised to be back soon. I had the One Flask in my Pocket as recommended by our bartender, wow, delicious. Not too sweet but sweet and delicious. I can't believe it's taken us this long to come here.There is a large bar with lots of seating and is in a great location for after dinner. Love this bar!! Thanks Sugar House for living up to all my expectations!

My absolute go-to cocktail bar, located in Corktown! The charming, quaint atmosphere and dimmed lighting set the mood for a romantic, fun spot. They really stand out with their unique flavors and house-made juices and their menu has over 100 different cocktails so you'll never be bored if you like to be adventurous and try something new! The staff is so amazingly friendly and helpful with finding you the drink you fancy. They even crafted a specialty drink for my friend that wasn't on the menu!

Phenomenal place!Every new years, my wife and I celebrate with my cousin in Detroit. Of all the places we've been, this might be my favorite. Incredible drinks and service.Sugar House is amazing in all possible respects. The ambiance, the staff, the drinks... it's all amazing.We enter and are immediately greeted warmly by the staff. The place looks great. Solid mood lighting, classy display of all the spirits, elegant tables. As soon as we're sat, someone comes over to walk us through things. The minute we all close our menus, someone comes over to take our orders. I can't praise enough this level of attention. It really makes you feel comfortable. The person helping us makes some recommendations based on our questions.When the drinks come, they are delicious. Absolutely everything wanted. We stay for another round and everyone tries something different. That round is excellent as well.Even though we weren't here for that long, it really made a lasting impression. Sugar House will for sure be added to our annual New Years tradition.
