Been looking for a bar to kinda be a regular at... This one is a good contender. Came on Saturday for trivia night. Had a nice time. Good energy and lowkey. Kevin makes a good drink and is friendly and conversational. Ill be back for sure!! Now Griffiths bbq could use some work... Not bad but not good either.

If you’re looking for a true neighborhood gem in Detroit, The Warren Cafe is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the "immaculate" 70s-inspired vibe—complete with moody lighting, vintage decor, and a gorgeous, sprawling bar—transports you to a different era. The cocktail program is where this place truly shines. They emphasize fresh, local ingredients and house-made purées that make every drink feel special. The Blaquiri: A fan-favorite twist on the classic daiquiri that perfectly showcases the bartenders' skill. Midnight Mule: A bold, refreshing choice featuring a rich black cherry purée. Cucumber Gin Gimlet: Incredibly crisp and natural-tasting. Honey Boy: A smooth, smoky, and citrusy option that’s become a recent standout. What really sets this spot apart is the atmosphere and service. Owners Rachael and Kevin make everyone feel like a regular, whether you're there for a quiet date night or a lively Sunday Spades Night. It’s a Black-owned business that has quickly become a cornerstone of the Morningside community. A few things to know before you go: Food: While they don’t have a full-time kitchen, they regularly host pop-up kitchens (like the Muchies Food Truck)

I recently visited this bar with my girlfriend and were both really impressed with our experience. This place was super chill and very welcoming. The drinks were expertly crafted and reasonably price. This hidden gem was such a good time. We will def be back soon!

Met Kevin and Rachel at the Old Miami one night and they were just a really nice couple with great energy. I had no idea they owned this soon to be Gem in the city/Detroit. Relaxed and welcoming just like they are with top notch cocktail concoctions made with consistent attention to detail. Live entertainment with a DJ and Karaoke Host who made sure everyone enjoyed themselves. Then to complete their recipe for success there is a Sushi Chef preparing hot dishes, Sushi, or combinations including Tempura Shrimp. I will be back on another day or night however Thursday night has the perfect trio. Check it out for yourself and I may buy a round of drinks, Cheers

Be sure to ask for the Blaquiri! Went to get one drink to close out my boyfriend’s birthday on a Sunday night and Kevin, the co owner and bartender, made us feel at home! As well as the other people that were there having their drinks. They just opened in January. Great bar. Great talk. Get drinks. And happens to be BLACK OWNED 😍 Definitely worth a visit!!!
