3rd Street Bar
4626 3rd Street
Detroit, MI
313-833-0603

3rd Street Bar is located in the Midtown area (previously the Cass Corridor) of Detroit.  It is one of several neighborhood type bars near both the Wayne State University Campus and the Detroit Medical Center. 

The 3rd has an outdoor area which includes a small stage as well as amble room inside.  I like the outdoor beer garden atmosphere that 3rd Street features.  In my opinion, drinking establishments that offer outdoor seating is a major plus.  

The bar features an interesting array of recorded music that, during my visit, included '70's Funk to early '60's Broadway.  To while away the time, there is also a classic shuffleboard table.  The bar offers a very good variety of bottled beer including the hipster standards as well as the historic local favorite:

  
Although the 3rd Street is an interesting local Downtown Detroit Bar, its major attraction is that it is the home of Dangerously Delicious Pies.  DDP, depending on the day, features several Savory (Pot Pie Style), Quiche and Sweet Pies.  When I visited, I was able to sample two of their Sweet Pies; Mobtown Brown and Baltimore Bomber.  I thoroughly enjoyed both; these are substantial stick to your ribs style pies.  In the future, I will need to revisit 3rd Street and try one of their Savory Pies.     

If you are ever in the Midtown area, swing by the 3rd Street Bar to enjoy some adult beverages in a unique atmosphere and sample some of Dangerously Delicious Pie's fine fare.
