I had a dinner meeting nearby and thought I’d make a detour before heading home. I had not made a visit here in a couple months. I saw some social media posts about a themed…

I had not been to this place in months. It had been even longer since a nightshift visit. Due to weather flight delays, I found myself waiting by the airport to pick someone up. I…

A dancer I like and see once in a while told me she would be working in the evening on a recent Friday, so I stopped by as the dayshift was ending. No cover, but…

I had not been to this place in ages and even longer since I made a daytime visit. It is located off a main road, but adjacent to a neighborhood of single family houses. During…

I was in the area late on a recent Thursday night and decided to stop by on my way home. It was probably around 11:15 or 11:30 when I reached, and I stayed for about…

It had been some time since I’d visited this place. Being in the general vicinity, I took the opportunity to stop by for a few hours in the afternoon. I arrived after lunch and stayed…

I happened to be proximate to BT’s on a pleasant Monday evening a few weeks ago. I rarely am out very late, but walked into the place at about 10. As it was a Monday,…

I hadn’t been to Coli since last year and felt like changing it up a bit from Michigan Ave, so thought I would check it out. I went on a recent Saturday evening. I arrived…

I was in the area and stopped by on my way home. I usually hit the Chase Bank on the other side of the airport (on Middlebelt) to get cash when visiting this place, but…

I made a trip to visit Flight Club a couple of weeks ago. I had not been back for almost a couple of months, but not much had changed in the interim. For anyone not familiar…

The Landing Strip is a bit far from me compared to my usual places, but I pop in from time to time. I had some time last Thursday afternoon, so I made the drive. It…

I have stopped by this place a couple times over the last couple months. A couple times during the day in June/July, it was pretty quiet. A few patrons at the bar, hardly anyone at…

I was driving on the west side of Detroit after the Governor's latest "shutdown" order for indoor bars, etc., but every place I drove by seemed open/full (Criket, Flight Club). I was in the mood…

Had never been to this place before, but drive by it all the time. When I drive by, it is usually never crowded, so I figured it was worth checking out to with a bit…

In the past, I have visited the Criket during the day, and most of the reviews I've read are about the day. I was in the area on a weeknight, so I thought I would…

I'd read that those who like the Criket also like Subi's, so I thought I would give it a chance. I like smoke-free, low key atmospheres, and Subi's delivered on that front. It is just…

Venue and atmosphere I arrived in the early afternoon since I had some time and was in the area (and didn't feel like driving to my preferred spots on the west side) in the rain. Mandatory…

Stopped by recently for a pit stop while running errands in the area. Got in around lunch time, which is a bit early for this place. More patrons and entertainers trickled in over the next…
