Applebee’s Grill + Bar is like that friend who shows up to the party and immediately brings down the vibe. Sure, it’s got a decent 4.3 rating and 1700 reviews, but that doesn’t make up for the soul-sucking chain restaurant energy. The food? Predictable at best.
Location & Access
Located on E Jefferson Ave, this Applebee’s is easy to find, especially for locals and NFL fans alike. Public transport is available, and there’s ample parking nearby. It’s convenient for a quick stop before heading to the nearby stadium, but don’t expect stunning views or charming streets — it’s Detroit, after all.
The Viewing Experience
The vibe inside is a mix of regulars and families, and the sports memorabilia sprinkled around doesn’t quite compensate for the corporate feel. They have multiple screens making it a decent option for catching NFL games, but don’t expect much excitement. The sound can be hit or miss, depending on how many games are on. You might feel like you’re at a gathering rather than a sports bar. And the service? Sometimes it’s great, other times it’s sluggish. You take your chances.
