Basic dive bar. Burgers are just ok even for a dive bar burger. Prices are good and the people are friendly. They have a juke box which may or may not be playing good jams.

Great neighborhood bar. Not a huge beer selection, but there’s a decent enough selection of Michigan brews to keep me satisfied. Bartenders are all great, and Ashley makes a mean bacon cheeseburger.

Since Jamie took this place over, it’s been nothing but uphill! The staff have always been great(we adore Ashley) and very friendly! The tap is limited but always has a few good Michigan Crafts available. The foo dis improving — I’m impressed with the wings! I can’t say we’ve ever had a bad time here!

Had the triple grilled cheese with tomato and grilled onions on sourdough bread. It was so good, and probably one of the best tasting grilled cheese I ever had. The bartender was friendly and made great drinks. I will going there again!

I guess I went on an off night. Was a Friday, not very busy. Bartenders were not too attentive. More concerned with doing shots. I give it the second star for the juke box.

Love this place. Great, friendly clientele. Eric is awesome. He remembers your name right away and treats you like a friend. Good local bar. Will definitely return. Wish it were 5 minutes from the house.

Every time I’m in there, just the greatest time. No matter what, a show, comedy, or open mic, everyone is friendly. The bartenders and owner are so great to each and every customer. I recommend this place to everyone that is trying to get out of the Ferndale scene but still not leave Ferndale. Hayley and Jamie are both awesome people. Any day of the week is great, especially day drinking!

The new ownership looks good on this place. A fresh coat of paint inside, anew sign and Tiger’s colored patio furniture and it’s like a whole new bar. Add to that the fact they now take credit and it’s a winner all around.

I really like this place for a few different reasons. Mostly because it is close to home, its divey yet clean, the bartenders are friendly and I have seen not one but two different Ween cover bands there. I also like that the music room is separated from the bar area. I don’t always like this but here I think it works well. They have 1 dollar hot dogs during Tiger games. #ween #boognish #booyabass

The is the way a hole-in-the-wall, neighborhood bar should be. Recently remodeled, it is clean & friendly with good burgers, good prices on beer, and live music. Unlike many small bars with a grill in the back bar, it smells clean and you don’t feel greasy when you leave. New TV’s make this a great place to watch a game. The front patio makes it a great place to relax with an afternoon cocktail. The owner doing things like having a horse out front for people to get their pictures take on for the Kentucky Derby, make this a great place. I was there for the release party for the book, Bird Box — Don’t open your eyes, by local author and musician Josh Malerman. Run out and buy it(Book Beat, B&N, Amazon, etc.) before they make it into a movie(it’s in the works).

We came here for Metro Times Blowout. Saw three live bands on a Thursday night. The first impression is that I’ve just entered a 1970’s basement. The lowish ceiling, the tile floor, the paneling but then… nice selection of bottled beer. Fast friendly bar service. Joined a table of strangers and had a great night! I wore my right forearm out hitting the fire button on the Galaga machine. Played some pinball too. Good people here all around. A good time was had by all and I would recommend that you check it out any night.

The changes that have been made since the new owners have taken over are amazing! It’s clean, organized, and the staff behind the bar is fantastic! So friendly and welcoming. We came in on a Sunday night and what do ya know? Bingo! We played a game, had some moonshine, shot a game of skee ball, and had ourselves a fantastic time. My friend declared«this is my new bar». He couldn’t have picked a better place!

They have ski ball. That’s basically enough for me. But an added bonus, they have Vanilla Java Porter too. Casual hole in the wall place for a cheap beer.

Great place for a cheap beer. They always have $ 2 cans or bottles of something and they usually keep decent craft brews on tap. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Haley, our bartender, made it a point to introduce herself and try to learn the names of the guys in my group. They also keep fresh, free popcorn in the corner to munch on while you drink. This is the cleanest divey local joint I’ve been to and I love it.

This is one of my favorite bars. It’s laid back, the bartenders and owner are great, and they have skeeball! I’ve also heard good things about their open night mic.

First time there was this weekend — early Saturday evening. Didn’t have anything to eat, but bartender and owner were very friendly. Bottles of Bud & Miller Lite were $ 2 for happy hour! Not bad for a bar right on Woodward :) Our server, as I said — very friendly, says she’s horrible with names, but great with drinks! I believe it :) I understand it is under new ownership and the person I was with agreed that things look quite improved from when he used to come in. They bring in a varied band line-up, so it’s likely there’s something for probably everyone at some point. Looks like a bar that’s definitely on the right track. Will probably be by again soon, to check out the lunch/early afternoon atmosphere. Will likely update my post to more stars, as I learn more about the New Way — 2 bottles of Miller Lite in a 45 minute stay wasn’t a lot to base my post on.

I didn’t mention in my first post that I am a member of the Detroit Blues Society. We we holding our monthly meeting at New Way Bar. We had never met there before. I was so angry about the way I was treated Saturday night that I e-mailed several folks on the DBS board of directors to tell them what happened to me, and to suggest that we not hold any additional meetings there. It turned out that one of our board members had an unpleasant experience with a different employee Saturday night. He wasn’t at all happy about the way he was treated, either. I haven’t heard back from everyone on the board I communicated with, but the response from each board member who has replied to me is unanimous — we won’t be meeting there again.
