Best Happy Hour for Drinks in Wayne County; Best Female Bartender;
Chelsea Chandler at Coach Insignia; Floors 71 and 72, 100 Renaissance Center, Detroit; 313-567-2622; theepicureangroup.com/coachinsignia
Yes, the Coach Insignia is a fine dining restaurant situated atop the Renaissance Center. But it’s also a bar with a beautiful view and a beloved bartender in the form of Chelsea Chandler. This is about as far from a dive bar as terrestrially possible — dressy attire is encouraged and the wine list is impressive. The Monday-Friday happy hour is a must, an affordable way to enjoy something a little fancier than the norm.
