Excalibur Park

I hadn’t been here in several years but myself and several friends stopped in at Excalibur last week. It was not the same place I remember from a few years ago. The place was absolutely filthy. The patio out back, which used to be the nicest in Grosse Pointe, was one big ashtray. There were hundreds of cigarette butts all over the floor. The inside of the bar is in serious need of cleaning and updating. It looks as though nothing has been done to this place in about 30 years. The restroom reeked of stale urine.
The good points: Friendly bartenders serving strong, well-​poured and reasonably priced drinks. And the patrons were very friendly and genuinely seemed to be having a great time. If this place would just do a serious cleaning and some upgrades it could be a real goldmine.

Pool table yes! Drinks are on the pricy side though fun crowd on fri & sat nights. They also server food which is a bonus in this area.

It seems like this place relies a lot on a few regulars who come in for a few beers here and there. I don’t want to bash the place too much because the owner seemed like a nice guy, but to be honest, it was outdated and pretty lame. They have a very limited beer selection (4 on tap, and maybe 6 – 8 bottled beers) but it was more the dark atmosphere that made it difficult to enjoy. It’s really spaced out and the bar area is really detached from the majority of the place. On the upside, it had some large televisions that made it a decent place to watch the game. By no means was this anything special.

Worst trash bar in GP. Terrible service unless you’re an underage female. Always an attitude and wait for drinks. This place is a dive that thinks its not a dive…

The outdoor pool table is awesome, and any bar that lets you play basketball for free gets a +1 star out of me. :-)
Great fun atmosphere. Drinks are kind of pricy, but don’t be surprised if by your 3^rd drink you’re not charged every time you order, or not charged for everything you order. Their food is good, their portions are huge, and their prices are more than fair for food. They only take cash so stop at the ATM before you arrive, but it’s a good bar.

The bartender couldn’t remember my order, and charged my friend for my drink assuming that he was my boyfriend (he’s not) or something. Overall, I was 100% unimpressed. On the positive side it was cheap and roomy, which counts for something, I guess.

unfortunately, least favorite bar in grosse pointe.
favorites: outside set up – massive patio, basketball courts, cheap drinks, pool table, good for large groups, best in summer!
meh: seems like a grosse pointe high school reunion, jukebox is kinda lame, not the best atmosphere
worth checking out if you’re in the grosse pointe area and you don’t want to travel too far. fulfills all necessary qualities of a bar, nothing spectacular.

When we first started dating, my now husband and I would show up early Saturday nights, order a pitcher, and commence to play game (s) of pool (coin operated!) It got so that Neil, the Saturday evening bartender would pour a pitcher of Labatt when he would notice us walking in.
Over the span of years (yes years) we were regulars there and we loved it. Once in a while, we’d bring along our friends and family and shoot baskets in the back. Everyone always had a good time.
We still go back from time to time when we’re in the neighborhood.
I’m not a «sports bar» kind of person — and sports TV is all over — but I love this place.

We make it to this bar every time we are in MI without fail. And why wouldn’t we when it has a little bit of everything.
Latest and greatest version of Big Buck Hunter? Check.
Pool tables? Check.
Huge patio? Check.
Outside basketball courts? Check.
Cheap drinks? Check.
The only thing this place is lacking is a cab when you are all said and done for the night. But since they don’t seem to come within a 10 mile radius of this bar or neighborhood… you can’t hold it against the place. They will at least gladly call one for you.

I love this bar!
Cheap drinks, great burgers, what more can you ask for?
One great thing about this bar is the hours they keep — open around 8am, you can go in anytime for a meal.
The daytime bartender, Hazel, is especially fantastic, and so sweet. She’s worked there for forty years, and is one of the nicest bartenders you’ll ever meet!
Great for the chill atmosphere, game tables (pool, etc.), and affordable drinks… One of the best quasi-​dive bars in the area!

Club X! Always the place to have a great night with friends. BEST last call. BEST patio playing basketball. BEST bartenders: Greg, Steve, now Alex too!

With my recent breakup still looming over me this was a great place for me and 2 of my fav girls to drink several icy cold cocktails and talk it out girlfriend style.
What a comfy little place and the hidden gem out back. What a HUGE patio/​deck! Love that!
Pool tables, juke box, bar food, decent priced cocktails and always interesting folks to strike up a conversation with! All things needed when it comes to a great local water hole.
I like it! I’ll be back!

This is a very good sports bar that is hidden away in GPP. Since my alma mater is in the Pac 10, it’s very difficult to see their football games. This place will forever have my loyalty for having a west coast feed of FSN so that I could watch the Big Game! My point is, if they can pick up a low-​profile matchup like that, they’ll have just about any game.
