Mercury Bar Reviews

It's alright. Far from the best burger I've had, and it took me almost a half hour to get a burger and hot dog, all while being anywhere from 40-65% of capacity.

From dogs to burgers to alcoholic milkshakes... To the amazing view of the best building in Detroit. This place is great.

Very good burgers and shakes, the shakes were more boozy than other places with adult shakes. Service kinda sucked, the bartender was unattentive and had us waiting a few times.

the milkshakes are amazing (especially with some booze) and the fries are to die for

Great options for lard lovers. Good food for everyone else (those like me who don't like all that pork on my fork)... I get the Turkey burger and milk shake, which are both amazing.... but this place pisses me off only because the fries and a lot of other stuff is fried in lard. At least they tell you! Hopefully they read this and care, if not, I'll just stay in my a la carte mode when I go here. Won't be disappointed. It almost gets the #WolfofWoodward certification stamp, but they need to get out of the 1950s.....Lard sucks.

Nice service food can be spotie hard to get a burger mr rare or mex.

Love their food amazing Bay & I really enjoyed ourselves on our date the staff was very friendly definitely would be going back

Nice place for a drink and good atmosphere for when your tinder date doesn't show

Fried bologna sandwich with a smosh of chips is so good!

Not the cheapest burger place, but the food is definitely worth the few extra dollars!

I've been coming here for years...awesome burgers...welcoming atmosphere...attentive staff. It's my favorite place in Corktown.

Mercury bar has everything you want for a dinner place. Good food which comes with enough to fill you up, good draught beers, and a great atmosphere with friendly wait staff and great people. Tapor burger was amazing! Garlic fries come with fresh garlic cut up on top and fries are fresh and crispy.

This is my favorite burger place in SE Michigan. The entire menu is fantastic but I usually opt for the Local Burger.

Good place for burgers, they are open late in the night also..

Love mercury bar! Their burgers are always amazing!

So i just had a bad experience with a very rude waiter. Dont care alot about their food as it is too heavy and greasy!

I tried this little burger bar for the first time. I was surprised by the out of the box items on the menue. Great food choices and a goos selection of craft beers ON TAP. Tam is a great waitress, attentive without being pushy or rushing you. Try this place, you probably see me there even though I live 30 miles away.

Excellent place to sit down and have a portobello burger with friends over a good drink!

Great burgers and atmosphere. Smoores drink looks very tempting.

Awsome...we went on xmas eve not knowing they were closing soon..but the happily took our order and the food and service was topnotch..I would return any time!

The ambience of this place is nice. With outdoor seating and all. However, their burgers were not so good. I gave them a 4 star because of their garlic fries. Really good.

If everything wasn't friend in lard, I would have liked this place more.

Fish and chips is a plate full of grease. Fries are hard (not crispy). I had hoped for better given the reviews. Probably what I get for not ordering a burger.

Stopped by after Green Dot Stables was too full. Glad we decided to try it. Great food and a decent drink menu. Make sure you feed the meter outside during parking enforcement times - the parking division looks at this area as a jackpot for revenue.

Variety if terrific burgers. Love their garlic fries, too.

Fun atmosphere and great service. The adult milkshakes are amazing and it's best to get them in a "to-go" cup--even if you are dining in because you get more. It's a dollar extra but it's worth it. The wait times are usually never bad even with a full house. The outside terrace is great for the not so hot days.

You get a star demotion for having plastic straws and cups. Please reduce the plastic as much as possible.

This has got to be one of the best burgers I've ever had!

Delicious. Excellent burger patty. Garlic Fries are exquisite too!

Can't say enough good things about their beer and burger selection. Great place. Great atmosphere.

Great burgers, especially with a good old Detroit beer, Stroh's! And perfect service!

Went here to eat one cold afternoon and ordered the jerk burger. To start out, the staff was very friendly and helpful in all my needs ands questions. The food was fast and delicious. A little high on the prices but definitely a must have if your ever around here.

I love the Detroit southwest burger it is the best burger I have ever had !!!

Great atmosphere, awesome service, and Incredible food!!!

Absolutely fantastic on all fronts. Friendliness, value and quality of food and atmosphere. It's great for a date night, or to bring the kids despite them not having a kids menu, they are very accommodating. Their burgers are delicious, the tatertachos were amazing. Fantastic food and very friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

I tried Mercury for the first time with a big group, they were very quick to seat us. I ordered the classic burger (medium rare) which was delicious and cooked to the right temp!

Their "special sauce" is terrific. Usually a special sauce is similar to Thousand Island dressing, which is my fave - and this one fit that comparison. The garlic fries are loaded with minced garlic, truly yummy. We were too stuffed to try a boozey milkshake, but will be back!

Food was okay. I've had better burgers and better service. Wasn't that crowded but still took a while for food to come out.

Great place to stop for lunch. Enjoyed the burger and a beer.

Best burgers - ar least they are my favorite. Burger for burger their quality and flavoring has not been matched by my pallet.

Delicious burger! Try to Local Burger for a pulled pork topped burger. Plus they have tater tot nachos!

Cool place, everything was great, very tasty. My only issue is, I was expecting a fat thick burger but instead got a thin patty.

They used to have "Rocket Salad" in their menu which they discontinued. Being a picky vegan with very carnivorous friends I settled for and ordered a plain salad with oil and vinegar for dressing. To my surprise, I was served a very delicious dressing that they made right there and then. The manager and kitchen staff whipped up some garlic and seasonings in olive oil and vinegar. I want the recipe for the dressing they just made!!! Very pleased!

The worst food ever...and it was served cold. The menu says Sangria is house made & comes with fresh fruit. It tasted like cheap bottle wine & the fruit was a lemon wedge. Sangria is NOT to be served with a lemon. Who taught you how to bartend? You'll be better off going across the street to Slow's versus this trouble excuse for a restaurant. You've been warned...
