Date Night at Lowertown

A Northside Ann Arbor cocktail bar with fire pits on the patio and a zero-proof list for whoever's not drinking. We're at 1031 Broadway, and parking across the street is free after 5pm.

Hours: Mon 8am–4pm · Tue–Thu 8am–10pm · Fri–Sat 8am–11pm · Sun 8am–8pm

Start with a drink

The espresso martini is our bestseller. If you'd rather go off-list, try the Northside Punch (bourbon, cognac, rum, honey, cinnamon) or Pink Skies (gin, elderflower, hibiscus, lime). Classic cocktails are always available.

Not drinking? Good.

Our zero-proof list isn't an afterthought. The Mock Mule and the Ex-Pat are built like real cocktails, and there's N/A beer and hop water too.

Fire pits

The patio sits under a timber canopy. In summer it's open sky; when it gets cold, the fire pits come out. It's the best seat we have for a long conversation.

Something to do

Trivia on Tuesdays at 7pm and 8pm. A new $10 cocktail every Wednesday at R&D night. Comedy shows and other events throughout the month. Check the calendar if you want the night planned for you.

Something to eat

We don't have a kitchen, but there's a charcuterie plate, and food trucks park outside most evenings.

Or make it a coffee date

We open at 8am every day. A Camo Latte and a pastry in a booth by the window is a pretty good first date too.
