Hockeytown is a multi-level bar and restaurant in downtown Detroit conveniently located near the Fox, Little Ceasars Arena, and the stadiums for the Tigers MLB team and the Lions NFL team. It is easy to find on the corner and big enough not to miss.

For me, the high point was the decor. I mean, they had old Harley-Davidson, Triumph. And BSA motorcycles on display and hanging in the air. There was sports memorabilia and sports history all over the walls and in displays.

There were plenty of windows to view some of the cool downtown Detroit sites. Plus, they had a rooftop area too!

If any events are happening in downtown Detroit, and there usually are, expect a bustling crowd.

The downside, at least during my visit, was the food and so-so service.

The food was middle of the road at best. Their burger was not much to brag about...bland, dry, and over cooked.

Service was best described as chaotic. Granted, there were numerous events happening simultaneously in the area and this always has an affect. Given their location and size, though, they should be used to such things.

Anyway, I liked Hockeytown. I thought it was a cool place in a prime location. Next time, I plan on hanging at one of their several bars. Check it out!
