The Monarch Club is a place like no other. Passing through the Metropolitan Building’s spectacular Great Hall hints at the elegant charm that awaits. The Monarch Club exudes both old-school intrigue and modern comfort, draped in tones of deep blue, red and gold that create a luxurious backdrop for incomparable city views. Located near attractions like Campus Martius, Corktown and Little Caesars Arena, enjoy a cocktail at one of the most expansive rooftop bars in downtown Detroit. Retreat to an intimate banquette or to the Tower Keep for a more private experience, or relax outdoors around a cozy firepit. Hearkening back to Detroit’s first golden age, the Monarch Club provides a front-row seat to its next.

    Seated right away, with reservation, but it took a very long time to order drinks. Staff didn't know common liquor types, which is surprising considering the complexity of the drinks. The drinks were good, though, and the atmosphere is nice.

    The lightening was comparable to candlelight. The atmosphere was smooth and refreshing. Staff was very nice and inviting. We stopped in for a celebratory drink for my husband. We were asked if there was a special occasion and after we mentioned that it was, we received complimentary champagne before our actual drinks. Very nice touch and our server and host were amazing.

    Waitress didn’t even say happy birthday much, was really dry. The manager was nice and the menu was really limited.

    The food, drinks, and service were excellent. Loved our cozy table with couch, club chairs and great views everywhere. The balcony views were amazing. The staff was helpful, welcoming and knowledgeable. Charming old Detroit with new feel. We will be back!
