Checker Bar Detroit

"A downtown bar temporarily closed due to fire damage from a utility explosion." - Serena Maria Daniels

"The Checker Bar is a popular downtown destination at anytime of day, but it’s particularly favored for its late-night hours. The kitchen stays open until 2 a.m. daily (even Mondays), serving favorites like the Checker burger, shoestring fries, and pizza." - Courtney Burk

"Over the holidays, as the omicron variant began to spread widely throughout Michigan, several establishments closed their doors due to outbreaks and to respond to burnout among overworked employees. Among those that closed temporarily were Checker Bar, Selden Standard, Grand Trunk Pub, Checker Bar, Flowers of Vietnam, Sister Pie, Baobab Fare, Detroit Vegan Soul, Standby and the Skip." - Serena Maria Daniels

"Solid burger and beer spot with a second-floor arcade bar." - Serena Maria Daniels

"Among proper pub food like burgers and hot dogs, Checker Bar dishes up four styles of deviled eggs including jalapeño, BLT, lobster, and classic. Get one of each or mix and match." - Brenna Houck
