The Bronx Bar
Detroit, Michigan
___________________
Best guesses estimate that the Bronx Bar dates from the late 1930s, possibly 1937. That's the only uncertain thing, though, about this Second Ave. mainstay of the Wayne State University / Cass Corridor area. You can be certain of everything else about the completely unpretentious Bronx Bar.
You can be certain to find:
No designer decor. Just an unassuming and mismatched assortment of stained glass hanging lights, fringe, and table lamps on the wooden bar along with other odd items collected through the years.
No dress code. They only require that you be clothed, even if it's only pajamas.
Nothing special at all.
No special event nights
No karioke
No drink or food specials
No happy hour
No dancing
No television
No entertainment, save for one small pool table and one juke box.
No big prices. Beer starts at $2.00 and drinks run $3.50 to $5.50. If you want wine, it's served in a highball glass. Martini glasses? Forget about it!
Reasonably good bar food staples like burgers, fries, onion rings and sandwiches reasonably priced from $3.50 to $7.00 with reasonably sized portions.
Friendly people on both sides of the bar.
The best shot / beer / burger joint in the area.
