Best Girl Bar Ann Arbor Near Me

Parker Thomas: Great drinks and they have a pinball machine too!

Martin Richardson: Very nice. Pretty Bartender

Thulani Moyo: Authentic, fun and gritty!Usually a great DJ on Wednesday. Unfortunately the new DJ is not main stream so fewer people out partying! Tonight we had a different vibe hope it continues!Unfortunately they continue to have no vibe. This first video is before and the rest are before

Alexandra Touchstone: I always like the staff they are really nice, this bar is pretty lowkey too.

Steven Fields: If you want a drink that is made with love and creativity this is your bar, the staff are awesome and really good at making you feel like family! When you go please order a drink called My Ol' G Mary, you won't regret it!!

Cody Weikel: Come find the Alley Bar next to the... Good n Plenty Alley! Or find the round AB neon sign. A simple no frills bar with great service and a great place to have amazing conversations with friends. This was our last stop on our bar hopping adventure, and I'll say it was one of the best of the night. Thank you Alley Bar!

kevin spangler: Go to bar where the cool people hang out

anita airon: Great place bar tender Ban is very friendly and awesome is suggesting the drinks.

Tyler Wykoff: Great bar, friendly staff, super good prices for downtown.

Brett Borsvold: Always worth it. Good place to read.

Katie Medvec: Carolyn is a gem! Lovely place with beautiful drinks.

Peter Lussier: Terrible experience. Bartender messed up my order twice in a row. Even put the tab of the guy next to me on my bill. When asked about, the bartender yelled at me and said, “fine, don’t tip at all then.” It was confusing and frustrating. Terrible service

Ronald Henry: Cool place Bartender was one of the best

Michael Taillard: Their drink menu is creative and tasty. Service is good. The music is always too loud, and the jukebox switches songs at random intervals which is really jarring.

T B: Omg worse bar experience in the world. Sour smell as soon as you walk in this dive bar. Possible covid infested and high transmission rate location. Both drunk female bartenders obviously don't know how to make a delicious tasting Cuba Libra. Cola + Rum + lime. Not generic lime juice

John Mohn: Serious drinkers here's your bar!

Karly Norment: nevers disappoints and good music

Derek Johnson: Perfect music for a night out with the boys....and girls! Great drinks and beer!

Bryan Keck: I met my wife here!

Avi S: Find it a bit strange that I've been charged 3 different prices for the same drink over 3 separate visits. Seems to be up to the discretion of the bartender but I can confirm I was overcharged.

Merrilees Craig: garrett and hunter are great!!

Trina “VillainGurl” Becker: The food and environment were amazing! I understand being a server is super hard work and can be stressful but the staff should not make the customers feel like they’re an inconvenience to them.

Alina Sinha: Bouncers (Adam and Ian), manager (Nate) and staff were extremely rude and impatient I would not recommend going here if you want to be talked to in a normal matter. Did not address any simple concerns about cover, just asked for bribes multiple times.

Julian Tabron: Probably the worst service I’ve experienced in recent memory. We walked in with a group of 8 and waited for service at a table booth. They never served us for the hour we were there. They had the audacity to serve the table right next to us who came in an hr after we arrived. The table next to us happened to be my friends that I invited. It wasn’t even that busy that night, and I just saw the servers vaping nonchalantly and chatting with each other in the corner by the bar. This place has gone down hill. I just wanted some food but I left disappointed.

Jennifer Mapes Turner: This is a GREAT bar! We were in town for a game at The Big House and stopped by for lunch. It was CRAZY busy, which added to the fun. Be prepared for a surprisingly long wait for food on a gameday (at least an hour to get a reuben sandwich and chicken tenders/fries). We sat at the bar. Great ambiance! Owned by the same people who own The Brown Jug.

Kyle Ellsasser: Great food and drinks and an excellent server.

Robert Bart: Fun college bar with mixed drinks.

jordan thrasher: Great customer service, our meals weren't put in with the kitchen so they covered our bill.

Sergei Kostiaev: Great service! Folks introduced me to Ann Arbor when I was attempting to study stats while trying to survive the farting guy and squatter in the apartment I rented

Christian Ghoubrial: Great drinks

Josh: Food sucked

Jared: A group of friends and I came here on a Tuesday to get drinks. The bouncer promptly seated us at a table. After 15 minutes, no server ever came to take our order and we took our business elsewhere

Berni: First time visit. Saturday 9:45pm. Fairly empty. Leprechaun wings were pretty tasteless, barely warm. Tasted like frozen wings warmed in a microwave oven then slathered with too-sweel sauces. Jerk sauce had NO jerk flavor. The Leprechaun Hat Trick sandwich was very disappointing. The corned beef was so hard and dry the flavor was gone. Too hard to bite it. Too much cole slaw on the sandwich. Even the bread was dry. Overall a dry tasteless sandwich. Server was ok but was not engaging or welcoming. It won't be my first choice to visit again.

R Brown: don't tell a man how to drink his Guinness

Anthony S: Nice chill spot bartender was nice wait staff seemed nice to. All in all good night out and they are right next door to pin ball Pete's 👍🏆

Sean Rice: My son and I stopped in to grab a bite to eat. We both ordered different corned beef sandwiches. My son had ordered the larger sandwich, which was priced the same as what I had ordered. When they arrived, I was actually a bit shocked to see the size difference between the two. My sandwich only had a few slices of meat versus the absolutely mound on his. I wouldn't have cared much, except were the exact same price with no additional items for the smaller one to compensate. Had we not ordered the same thing I would likely had not noticed or even said anything, but the side by side comparison was hard to notice. The only other issue was the sheer amount of oil(butter?) that was in the sandwich was so overwhelming it was hard to eat. After it started getting a little cold, it was unappealing.I spoke to the waitress, who asked the manager to come over regarding the issue. I wasn't upset, but genuinely curious as to how the restaurant could charge the same for these two hugely disproportionate items. I wanted them to be able to see the sandwich size difference, since a visual reference helped. From our seat, I could see the manager's reaction to the waitresses comments. The manager went back to the bar and finished her conversation with the people at the bar, cleaned up and after about 10 minutes came over to resolve the issue. The manager explained that while his order should have had double the size, it shouldn't have been this big of a difference. She removed one sandwich from the bill and did provide a gift certificate for future use, but this wasn't really what I was looking for. She didn't address the question, which is how the restaurant justifies charging the same amount for two different amounts of food? This was just sort of shrugged off. Whether it's double or triple the size, that's a huge difference that someone setting the two meals side by side will question. Maybe it wasn't originally supposed to be that way, and someone who doesn't know the food served or the restaurant created this menu and price. I will use the gift card provided to visit them in the future and see if they have resolved these small issues.

lukas bailey: I really love how the food tastes. The chicken is so tender and perfect, but the burgers are good to. I recommend coming here as soon as possible. There is a catch tho NO FREE REFILLS sorry but no free refills. If there were free refills this place would be perfect. The food is kinda cheap. So come down to your nearest Blue Leprechaun

Rick L: Very loud. Decent food. Would go again with earplugs.

Grace Su Ming: Love the Study Lounge space below. A lot of space and seating. Love the atmosphere and vibe. Drinks reasonable priced!

Mitchell Davidson: Drinks are fairly good and reasonably priced (I recommend the amaretto sour). Solid option for college students who don't want the club-like atmosphere of Rick's and Skeeps. Also, a great choice for GameDay!

Evan H: a bit pricey for the quality

Dan Gilbert: The bar itself honestly is pretty good, nice indoor/outdoor seating and big bar. However, the staff, mainly the bouncers are the most disrespectful, unprofessional, and physical group of people I’ve ever come across in a bar. I have seen their bouncers physically confront people on multiple occasions and get, no less than what I would call, violent. On women mind you. Not the kind of business I want to support.

David Lieber: Great trivia night Wednesday night, with cash prices. Friendly staff and good food

Tara Turner: Fun place to stop in and have a drink! It's outside so be sure to bring a coat in the evening. They have heating lamps that keep the space pretty warm. The staff are friendly and is right next to pizza house (late night snack) 😉

Juan Thompson: Gar Bar Happy Hour and outdoor seating area are amazing... But the staff suck. The bouncers are always on some weird power trip - they will cut friend groups in half in line, question real IDs heavily, and just kinda mad dog people in general. cover is also super inconsistent (ranging from 5-20 dollars at any given time/night)

speedy vargas: Great place love coming here

Caleb Vance: Loving the Happy Hour and concept! Can’t wait to watch the game there this Saturday 🙌🏽 #GreatHappyHour

Emily Rouse: Amazing drinks and cool atmosphere

Christine Comer: Decent beer selection and lots of seating. Good happy hour.

Bethany Cardona: great happy hour!

Anya Skala: The concept was cool 😎 the bruchetta was okay. Staff was meh. 🤷‍♀️

Henry Walters: Nice patio!

Taylor S: I would give this bar zero stars if I could. They signed up to be a part of a bar crawl with waived cover and then still charged cover. I find that to be very inconsiderate and rude. I was a college student not too long ago and I understand that they take advantage of those who are driven by popularity, but have some integrity. The rest of Ann Arbor does not respect you.

Rick L: Awesome place, I reccomend the drinks there.

Emily Weaver: Garage bar, infamously known as "Gar Bar," is one of the most obnoxious, inconsiderate establishments in Ann Arbor. Not only do they BLAST music every night of the week past 2 am (even when calling them to politely ask to turn down the music and bass that's shaking my window panes), but they play atrocious music as well. In fact, "What Does the Fox Say" is playing right now.. now imagine it on a Monday night at midnight with bass that I didn't even know the song had. Have some respect and turn down the music when multiple people call and ask or at least play decent music.

muhanad almaliky: Loved the atmosphere and our server was super cool and friendly.

David Patterson: Love the open air atmosphere, especially when it’s not an ideal time for crowded indoor bars

Greg Tyler: Inside or outside it's just a cool place to hang out!

J K: Home football Saturday, night game. At 2 pm there are 2 bartenders for a pretty full house, and neither of them is what you’d call quick.So they set up a line to order drinks, but then dont enforce it so anyone who wants to jump the line can.Anyways, if you’re gonna have a sports bar in Ann Arbor, hire some servers on fall Saturdays

Ann Arbor Local: Nick, Extremely aggressive manager told my friend and i he would be off at 2 am to fight us. He took one person's word stating my friend was racist even though we are regulars and come here often never to bother anyone but to sing karaoke. He then kicked 4 women out for literally no reason because he wanted to feel some sort of value within his aggression. If you want to pay a cover and be mindlessly kicked out, here's your guy, take a look!

Stellar Books: Nick, one of the bouncers was very unprofessional yelling profanities at our group of ladies when he surely had us mistaken for someone else. Amazing to see the head of security cause so many issues for this establishment. :(

Sarah: Hands down my favorite bar in Ann Arbor. On Friday there was a group of guys being weird to us and other girls and Nick escorted them out. Nick always has our back and is one of the reasons we love going to circ! Everyone should have someone like Nick on their staff — he always makes us feel welcome and safe.

Morgan Clancy: Hailey was AMAZING!!!!!!!

Carly Fogelson: Manny is the best! Absolute kindest human being and was the reason we stayed!

Lauren Penrose: Manny was amazing!! It was a slow night, but despite that he was so friendly we loved talking with him!!

Patrick Quigg: Great time!

Lindsey: My friends and I have been going to Circ for awhile now. The food is pretty decent. The drinks are way too overpriced and small, though. the music the play is weird and way too loud for a Wednesday night at 5 pm. I know that makes me sound old, but it really is just crazy stupid loud. Also the circ idol karaoke competition is rigged. I’ve gone and watched a couple times, and the winners are always friends of the djs or people he coaches as a singer.

Kimberly Lindberg: Fantastic playlists

Esther Francois: Great service!!

Kipp Ciesielski: Best vibe I’ve ever gotten from a bartender by far.

Ryan H: Best bartender ever 🙏🙏🙏

Deana Smith: Love the atmosphere of this place. There’s something for everyone, a DJ, karaoke, nice outdoor space, and a low key section. Karaoke night is really jamming!

Grace Su Ming: Lots of space and different bars including outdoor bars! Drinks averaging $10 a drink. Circ has themed nights such as karoke.

Melanie Maggetti: Alex was so very welcoming and kind. He has a positive demeanor and continues to make the evening increasingly fun!

Cruel Streak: One security guy at this place has some complex because he is 5'2''. It happened already multiple times that this person would just jump on the stage to pull me and another male friend away from the stage because our girlfriends were about to sing a song with us and he decided he prefers our girlfriends to perform without us. Then he keeps roaming around accusing people of putting their empty beer bottles or cocktails on tables on the wrong side of the bar. This joker literally grabbed a drink that a random person left somewhere in the bar and walked up to me on the dance floor to aggressively ask me whether that was mine. Probably to order me to bring it to the bar.

Luke Vollman: Hailey was awesome.

J G: The owner is a 40 year old creep who tries to hit on 21 year old college sorority girls. There's so many stories about this place, STAY AWAY!

Mark Martinez: It was okay fun watching the karaoke. But Mexican beers with Mexican bartender lol

Lily Wachtel: This place was an incredible venue for my sorority's date party last week. Everyone so catering, the space is perfect, and the karaoke add on was such a hit! They were able to hold our 200+ guests and everything planned went so smoothly. I highly recommend The Circ Bar to host your parties - we will definitely be returning to them :)
