Hockeytown Cafe

Even though I am not a big fan of hockey, I do like going to Hockeytown Cafe in Detroit. I've only been to a few Red Wings games and I never watch them play on TV although I know they're a very good team! Not only does Hockeytown Cafe serve food, they have entertainment as well. You can also have private parties there and there are four options to choose from. They have the Celebration Room, the Roof Top, the Patio, and the 2nd Mezzanine. Hockeytown Cafe is named Detroit's number one sports bar and number two sports bar in America by ESPN2. They are also located right next to the Fox Theatre so before or after a great show Hockeytown is a convenient and friendly place to stop at eat. They do score rewards where every $100 you spend you earn 10$. The inside of this place is so cool, they have all sorts of decorations that make it different from any place in Detroit. They also have a shop inside to buy t-shirts and whatnot. Hockeytown is obviously a great place to go to to watch the Red Wings play if you don't have tickets to go to the game or even watch other sports. Hockeytown Cafe has over 50 kinds of beer and have specials on their food Monday through Friday. They have a variety of choices for appetizers from chicken finger baskets to chips and salsa. I always order chips and salsa, I have a weakness for them. I usually eat so much of them that by the time my entree comes I'm full! Their food is very good here and I always have a hard time choosing what I want. Their BBQ chicken salad is good and so is their taco salad, I order those with no tomatoes! Their thin crust pizza and deep dish pizza are also an excellent choice. I just get pepperoni but my dad and brother seem to get almost every topping possible. That grosses me out and I stick to my pepperoni. When it comes to their sandwiches I've tried a few, their buffalo chicken sandwich, the smoked turkey, and their Italian panini. I order those with no cheese and tomato as well. They have a good selection of burgers although I've never tried them, I rarely order burgers. Their chicken fettuccine alfredo is good but I've had better. Same thing with their ribs, they're good but I've had better. I usually order their seasoned fries as my side, sometimes I'll order the coleslaw. My mom usually orders garlic bread and I'll have a bite of hers because I can't resist garlic bread! It's too good. If I order dessert I get the Hockeytown Brownie Sundae. It is way too good. Their apple pie is good too. They have fruity margaritas and martinis and also non-alcoholic specialty drinks. Another thing that is nice about Hockeytown is that they have a gluten free menu which some restaurants do not have. So I definitely recommend Hockeytown Cafe as a place to eat when you're in Detroit. It's too good to pass up and it's a cool experience to have. The staff has been friendly and accommodating every time I've dined there. Their hours vary depending on game times. It's a great place to come with a group of friends or your family. I don't think I will ever get sick of their food either!
