“ Thursday night standing up comedy day before Covid shut down everything March 2020 left my corona un opened from the applauding I asked Dearborn can I be racists after Detroit said don’t go for my safety but I risked it for comedy thank you new place lounge I have my backbone thanks to my roots. ”
“ The New Place Lounge is well known in the city of Dearborn, it has been there for over 40 years, and is still owned by the same family, they’re know for live music and a great atmosphere. Every time I am there I enjoy my evening listening to the music and catching up with old friends. ”
“ I love a good dive bar. Cheap drinks! Plus the pool is always free! A local Dearborn legend showed me his hockey trophy on the wall in the back, and gave me a history lesson of the bar over the years from when his Dad would frequent the bar during his younger years. Service was top notch, I can't wait to be back! ”
“ Stopped in for a drink on a Friday night and they happened to be closing. The owner was so friendly and welcomed us to stay and have a drink even though he was on his way out. Thank you!! ”
“ One of the last survivors that hasn't changed. Excellent watering hole with a few improvements, great local spot to catch a game. Being a rare gem that it is you can expect all types. Never once witnessed anything like fights. ”
“ A nice bar with that old time feels to it, don’t expect any glitz and glam. Bartender provided amazing service, we were there drinking for a few hours and never once had to ask for beer, very attentive. Even gave us a round on the house! Will always visit when I’m near!!! ”
“ Tonight was my second night there. I walked in and the bartender (i forget her name... ironically) remembered both my drink and my name. The first night i was there i was by myself and didn't talk to anyone. I was just there watching the comedy/hockey game and drinking my drink. So i feel like that is super impressive and fantastic customer service considering we didn't really talk. Comedy shows on Thursday nights are fun. Crowd is diverse. Will be back! ”
“ If you like an absolutely packed bar. This place is for you. If you also like a dead empty bar, this is also for you. Me and our buddies play pool here and grab drinks on the weekends and enjoy a less crowded bar. However, during events or games, it can often be a bit packed. The bartenders are great, and the owner is very xhill. ”
