Reviews For Old Detroit Burger Bar

Went in around 4 pm on a Saturday and only waited a couple of minutes for service. Our server was perfect, there when you needed him but not hovering. The food was EXCELLENT. My husband is burger picky, it's basically what he orders everywhere we go and he said his Gratiot Avenue burger was one of the best burgers he has ever had. My patty melt was phenomenal and the waffle fries were cooked to perfection. Highly Recommend!!

This place was amazing! I got the Russell street burger and it was amazing!!! My boyfriend had the gratiot ave burger and he said he loved it. The blood Mary was so good. It can with pickles, olives, celery, and bacon. We also had the spinach dip and they give you a lot. I love that as well. We had an amazing experience.

This is a very chill bar/restaurant. It felt so friendly and comfortable that I didn't want to leave. The decor is absolutely amazing, and I it checks off all the right boxes for a great place for a good time. Nicole, the bartendress, was a wonderful hostess and fun to talk to. Jamie does wonders in the kitchen as everything, including what I ordered, looked delicious. I ordered the Detroit Steak Sub, and not only did it look delicious, it absolutely was delicious. This is a must stop if you're looking for a great place to chill, have a drink, and get a bite to eat.

What a gem ! This beautiful bar was very cozy and the waitress there on monday Bella Dona was very friendly. On MONDAY'S, if you buy a drink from the bar, your entrees are half off. What a deal!! And the burgers are amazing!! Stop in. I did, and I don't regret it. Thank you, Old Detroit Buger Bar. ...

First time visiting, everything one could expect from its name. Very cute bar and grill. Prices were fare for the taste and well worth returning. Snuggled in the heart of downtown Lapeer, you can get this wonderful food that you'll need to walk off while you shop nearby.
