We went on a Friday Night. It was gorgeous out. The drinks were delicious and refreshing. I highly recommend the Meatballs. They were best I have had in city. It's a nice place. I only wish the cleared dishes away faster. I stared at empty plates for most my evening, even when they came back to table several times. We stayed for a few more drinks after food and they just kept building up. They also have servers with tables at opposite ends of the restaurant, so it can take a while for server to return. Not the servers fault, just an annoying business practice. Just something to be aware of if you don't like to wait a long time between table stops. Definitely worth going back again for the food. What I saw everyone else eating also looked really good.

Big open green space for kids to play. Seating is there. Nice little park right in the heart of it all.

Went for a pop-up event and it was so fun! The park is beautiful and well maintained. And I think it is perfect for events. There’s a great spot for food trucks at the side of the park also that doesn’t disrupt the regular flow of traffic which is great. I will say that because it is artificial turf instead of real grass on top of it being so well manicured - it is a bit hard to find places for my dog to sniff around without him trying to get into the flowerbeds. But I think this is a great park for events and to let kids run around (plenty of space for them to actually run and get out energy!). There is also Circle Park (attached to the DTE building) right next door, which is also a public park, and that has plenty of space for dogs to sniff about and for putting out a picnic blanket if Beacon is a bit crowded with an event. Super excited to check out more events here!

Beacon Park is super open and friendly to all types. It's clean and very interesting designed. It's very unique in its layout, and it's a good place to have a sandwich or hang out on a warm day. Some of the foot traffic there can be distracting at times, but it's a great spot to enjoy none the less.

Really love all that has happened downtown over the last 10 yrs! A ton of huge improvements! This is a cool little place to relax with friends, family or even alone. There is plenty of seating but can imagine it gets super busy here sometimes. It is located right outside lumen which is a really good resturant!

Went the day after Thanksgiving for the winter decorations and festivities and it was beautiful! Very well done. Plenty of lights, decorations, and trees.. and the bells were a huge hit with our kids! There is a heated seating area inside a tent and a handful of food options nearby. Adorable place to visit for the holidays!

I come here to take pictures of my clients adorable dogs! It's pretty easy to find street parking and there is complimentary wifi which I like. The decorations are always very well done and plentiful.
