Best Dive Bar in Washtenaw County
Tap Room, Ypsilanti; 201 W. Michigan Ave., Ypsilanti; 734-482-5320; taproomypsi.com
On Yelp, somebody referred to the Tap Room as a smelly, low-brow dive bar, and they meant it as a positive. That should tell you all you need to know about the place. It’s dank, it’s dirty, and it’s a great place to get hammered fast without breaking the bank. It’s not all grit though — the bar staff is friendly and skilled, and the food is surprisingly good.
