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.

    They were so accommodating that they gave me a blanket to warm up. Obviously the drinks are great but… the service was next level… fuzzy blankets.

    The food items we wanted were not available and the food items we ordered didn't meet the expectation for the cost. However, The Monarch Club makes up for the food misses with the ambiance.

    Service was so slow - we waited 5 min at the door for the host to show up and waited at least 20 minutes after ordering for our drinks (restaurant was not busy, it was a Monday night). Drinks were overpriced and not anything special. There are incredible rooftop views but the drinks and services really tainted the whole experience.

    Horrible service. Was sat with no menus. Didn’t see a server for 15 minute. Didn’t get menus until 30 mins after our reservation time. Didn’t get our drinks (for 2 of us) for 45 mins.

    Waitress was rude and messed up our groups drink order. Also didn’t see the waitress for a long time, ended up take a good amount of time to get our first round of drinks, so didn’t end up staying too long due to the long waits. Looked like plenty of staff was working but couldn’t serve their tables correctly.

    Terrible! We have been to this place three times and it’s been a very poor experience each time. This is it. Officially we will never visit again. Poor service, half of the menus not available. Who runs this place and why do they still have this job?

    The ambiance is always amazing on the patio. We had after brunch cocktails sitting on the patio with the Tigers playing in the background. The signature drinks are interesting and delicious.
