Fantastic Food and Hundreds of Beer- Box Bar, Plymouth MI.

We lived in Plymouth, just after we got married, and loved the downtown atmosphere.  One of the places we frequented was the Box Bar.  We love this place. So when my girlfriend and I were looking for a place to stop and eat on our way back from Detroit, we both suggested the Box Bar! (She too loves this place!)

The Box Bar seems to have always been in Plymouth.  It was a small bar next to Kellogg park for years and then expanded in the 90s allowing for more dining space and room for parties and functions.  The main dining room has high ceilings and two large projection screens for the sport of the day.  There are shelves aroung the room that hold beer steins from around the world and the original sign is hanging over the host stand.

The back wall is lined with every bottled beer you can think of.  The selection is enormous. They have a multitude of draft beers as well.  Of course they have local beers on draft too!!





One of the coolest things about the Box Bar is how they serve the beverages.  Each soda or non-alcoholic beverage is served in a mini pitcher!  Huge hit with kids and those of us who love big sodas!

The menu is very large and bound like a book.  It sports items from burgers and nachos to bangers and mash and stews.    There is so much variety it is hard to choose; Mexican fare, burgers, barbeque, soups, salads, sandwiches, entrees and more.

We started with the nachos of course!  The nachos here are awesome!!!!  VERY cheesy  and meaty and topped with guacamole and sour cream.  Yummy!




I decided to order from the special menu, I couldn't resist the idea Guiness Beef Stew.  Beef, carrots, celery in a Guiness based beef gravy over a baked potato, topped with fried onions! Really who wouldn't want that!!! It was gigantic!!!  Every bite was a rich and full of flavor.  I ate a little too much, yet still had left overs for the next day!



My girlfriend ordered the meatball sandwich. This isn't your ordinary meatball sandwich. Instead of a roll the meatballs are baked into a bread bowl and topped with mozzerella.  Wow!!! and Wow again!  My girlfriend loved it!!!    














The kids menu is great and not only offers chicken tenders and macaroni and cheese but pasta and even PB&J.  Just be aware that like the adult menu the portions are huge. Each dish comes with a side of appleasauce.

The kids really liked their meals which made the meal better for the us!   We were so happy that we chose to eat at the Box Bar!!  This is a great place to take your family, meet friends for beers or watch a game.  Everyone will be happy with a visit to the Box Bar!
