The artful Dodge

Few things compare to a night on the town with good friends. The New Dodge Bar in Hamtramck embodies this concept. A "partier's bar," the vibe at the New Dodge is simple: Have a ball. Owner, bartender, cook and run-arounder extraordinare, Kathy Gordon is a testament to the virtues of celebration - with her cheery disposition and gracious hosting skills, Gordon and staff will quickly make the New Dodge feel like your lifetime hangout. Boasting pool tables, a jukebox, a dance floor and weekly live music, this place is perfect for an after-work cocktail or a wild-and-crazy night of hedonism and hard stuff.
