Mayfair - Lansing

This is a great spot to relax and have a beer in a cozy, neighborhood setting.

Place was near deserted, a few people at the bar. Excellent service and they serve food late on the weekends. I had the fish tacos, they were killer! They were out of a couple of items that the waitress was up front about, normal supply line issues and they were short staffed but the service was great anyway. They had vegetarian options for the vegetarian in our group and everybody got up to play pool afterwards. A nice little place.

Like some of the other reviews on here, I am also not quite sure how this bar has the high rating that it does. The young lady who seated us was very friendly and attentive. The first thing that I ordered was a beer. They have a decent selection of beers on tap, and it was a nice surprise to find a few that I had not tried. It arrived quickly and was very cold. *Spoiler Alert* This beer turned out to be the highlight of our meal. My fiancee and I decided to try a couple of different items from the menu, and ended up ordering The Duke Burger and the nachos. The Duke Burger was decent, but definitely nothing to write home about. The onion rings that came with it were clearly straight from the freezer section of a budget conscious shopping center. If that wasn't already bad enough, they were also overdone and flavorless. The staff favorite nachos as they were listed made the burger seem like an award winning meal from a fine dining restaurant. The portion was large and enough to feed two, but this was the only thing going for them. Every component to the dish tasted cheap. Whatever flavor was incorporated in this delicatessen was clearly lost during it's long trek from the kitchen to our table. As my fiancee correctly stated, These are the kind of nachos you would eat while drunk, and not touch at any other time I couldn't agree with her more.

A jewel of a sound during the journey from detroit to grand rapids. huge deck with views of the lansingsee. charming park over the street. perfect mix of dipped and summer vibes. try the pickle fries!

That is a nice little local bar, is busy during the rush. I was just here once, but I want to come back. eating was really good, and it was a double date with friends, so it felt like a good meeting point for us to talk and catch.
