How about the one with the big "V" on it at Gratiot and McClellan? Kinda authentic. |

Ha ha...... not sure you want to take a group of your friends in there unless they have a big "V" on their backs. If I'm not mistaken that is the clubhouse of the local Vigilante's motorcycle club? (Message edited by bigjeff on November 08, 2007) |

Yeah, that's not a bar, that's the Vigilantes' clubhouse. |

Go to the 16,000 block of West Warren in Detroit. Ask for the Outlaws. |

No not at all. Erin's Pub is not in downtown, but it advertises as a biker friendly bar. It is on 14 mile just east of Groesbeck. Heven't been in there in a while. The New Way Bar had a biker night I think on Wednesday nights. You could even see one of the best local bands The Reefermen in there on a Wednesday. Other than that, I am not sure of any other "biker bars." |

stone house in the 19000 block of Ralston near the state grounds is the real deal. They also have a web-site: http://thestonehousebar.tripod .com/ Good live music although the venue can be a tad dicey at times |
