Rita Isready has been waiting a long time. For 10 years, as a matter of fact. Her purse once held the required necessities for all types of fun, but it was swiped. This sounds like a miserable plight, until you consider some points: A) She's a mannequin, and B) She's spent her tenure as the plastic mascot at The Inn Place, one of Royal Oak's quirkiest gems. In a city that seems to be overrun with frat boys and label-fiends, The Inn Place is the funky antithesis. It's a tiny (capacity: 56) social club; it's a dive that's well cared for, right down to the new vinyl tablecloths. Bugles, donated by customers, hang all over the walls. How about a drumroll for the punchline. Did you guess? It's the horniest place in town. Fake grapes and a plastic owl liven up the bar, where regs munch on media-noted fried bologna sandwiches and liverwurst specials. Attention would-be crooners: On Thursday, The Inn Bar is your star stage. During big games, karaoke runs only during the breaks. Join Rita at The Inn Place. She'll make sure you're treated well and will give you something to snicker at over a cocktail.

The Best Ever!
By ging81 on 02/18/2008
We are regulars at The Inn Place and you couldn't ask for a better bar! The staff is really what sets this place apart. Everyone there is great and so friendly. They remember your name if you are in there enough and maybe even what you drink. The atmosphere is great and they always have the best decorations up for each holiday. The food is great too which is unexpected from a place so small. Can't say enough good things about this place!

Why go anywhere else?

If you haven't been to The Inn Place, then you haven't experienced an incredible evening with a great group of people! Let's start with their WORLD FAMOUS (my world) burgers. I don't know how they do it, but these burgers have incredible flavor. I don't know if it's the type of meat or the spices or a combination, but the burgers are awesome. Seriously...if I don't have one of these burgers every couple of weeks, I go through a withdrawl. Now, if a party crowd is more your thing, then you ahve to come on Thursday or Saturday for Karoke. Not only are there some incredible voices, but it is the most diverse group of people you will find at any bar. From college kids to senior (citizen) rappers, these folks are crazy. You have to experience it to believe. So, you want a great night out? Go to The Inn Place! I'll be there tonight for my weekly burger...gotta get my fix!

couldnt ask for more.

My fiance introduced me to this little place. I love it. Should be more places like this in the metro detroit area. To much corporate bullshit and whiney prissy folks out there.
