    If their burgers weren't so good, we'd stop writing about them. Honest. Just swing by on any given lunch hour, and you'll thank us later. [Eater 38 Member]

    The music selection varies WIDELY depending on who is behind the bar. Sometimes its pumping dub-step, or hip-hop and sometimes it's classical symphony... Changes daily.

    The Bronx Bar is one of my favorite Detroit bars. $2.00 for bottles of Blatz. Heck yes.

    Don't use a credit card and then ads drinks on after they run your card. You may be charged twice in one night:(.
