When we walked in, the smell was overwhelming, but I soon discovered it was coming from the fog machines they had running, which eased my discomfort a bit. The swamp-themed atmosphere is definitely unique; it genuinely felt like we were in a little cabin in the swamp, scents included! However, the service was a bit on the slow side, likely because there was only one person handling drink orders. They actually ran out of duck, so the server creatively put a dirty rubber chicken in our drink instead. I appreciate the effort and it gave me a good laugh, but it was rather unappetizing to see the dirt caked onto it when I pulled it out. We waited around ten minutes to get our bill, and it took about the same amount of time for it to be processed. There are plenty of other cool bars out there that offer better service, ambiance, and cleanliness, so while this was a fun experience, I won't be returning.
One of my good friends is a tiki aficionado and this is his favorite tiki bar! I was happy to finally be able to come and pay this spot a visit with him and my goodness the VIBES HERE ARE BEYOND IMMACULATE! What's a word that could describe something more perfect than immaculate? I can't think of one, but whatever that word is Lost River is that vibe!! From the moment we walked in, they had Gilligan's Island playing and projected onto one of the walls, a smoke machine puffing out smoke every 5 10 minutes (we stayed here for several hours and it got increasingly smokier and smokier as it got darker and darker as well LOL, but the smoke never bothered us and added some seriously delightful ambiance! , and just the cutest decor as far as the eye could see, which wasn't far because of the previously stated smoke machine! All the drinks here are so CREATIVE and all come in extremely delightful and fun GLASSWARE! There are several non alcoholic options too, so a non drinker like me can partake in the fun as well! I can't recommend this spot enough! My friends truly ran the gambit in all the different drinks they tried on the menu and all were delightful, so I don't even have specific recommendations for you, it just depends on what kind of drinks you enjoy! The service was also so wonderful and the bartender that was serving us was so personable and fun to talk to as well joined in to our conversation at many points and was such a delight! There was also a food truck outside in partnership with Lost River for a bit there and they carried some delicious foodstuffs there too that you could then bring into the bar to enjoy as well! Absolutely loved it and even though it's a bit out of the way in terms of spots I typically frequent in Detroit, I'll always make a point to stop by here in the future whenever I can because it's just that fun!!! Thanks Lost River!
Fun tiki themed bar in Detroit. Lots of cocktails to choose from with tiki-style glassware. Each drink is unique and the bartenders do a great job with the presentation! They could chill out with the fog machine, it's a smaller space and it gets to be a bit much at times.
Fun place to stop in for a drink! Unique. Friendly staff. Really enjoyed the atmosphere.
