Detroit’s Best Happy Hours | Eater Detroit
"An oak-burning hearth throws off cozy vibes at this seafood-intensive New Center restaurant. Oak and Reel concentrates on contemporary Italian fare with an emphasis on fresh pasta and sustainably sourced seafood from Motor City Seafood Company. The drinks menu matches this approach. The wine list is, not surprisingly perhaps, heavy on the Old World, especially Italian labels, and also carefully screened for the most sustainable winemaking practices. The long, long bar has more than enough space for a boatload of liquor bottles, including a delightful array of amari and aperitivi. On Wednesday and Thursday nights, Oak and Reel fills up with hungry diners looking forward to $2 oysters, $5 beers, and a selection of wines and cocktails for $8 each. Hours: 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., Wednesday through Monday" - Mickey Lyons
