About the Menu

The Sugar House offers a thoughtfully curated menu that blends timeless cocktail craftsmanship with approachable bar bites. Its selection is designed for relaxed evenings out, whether you're unwinding after a long day or gathering with friends for a lively night in Detroit’s distinctive atmosphere.

The cocktail menu spans from classic favorites like the Manhattan and Moscow Mule to inventive seasonal creations and unique offerings such as the Smoke Bacon Old Fashioned or the Birch Cocktail. These drinks pair naturally with the bar’s vintage-industrial ambiance, where dim lighting and engaging energy set the stage for savoring well-crafted flavors.

Complementing the drinks, the menu includes small plates and snacks like the Charcuterie Platter and Cheese Plate—perfect for sharing and balancing the evening’s drinks without overwhelming. Single barrel whiskeys and a carefully chosen selection of absinthes provide additional depth for those interested in exploring rich, nuanced spirits.

Whether stopping in for a specialty cocktail or lingering over a casual bite, the food and drink options here reflect an easygoing yet refined experience. The menu supports a range of moments, from quiet reflections at the bar to spirited conversations in a lively crowd.
