Lafayette Coney Island

In short, a hot dog joint- but possibly the best hot dog joint in the world. This is a relaxed cafe with orange formica tables and matching chairs in true 1970s style. Detroiters stop by for the famous Coney Island Dog, a beef sausage topped with meat chilli, onion and mustard.

Elwood Bar & Grill

One of Downtown Detroit's most recognisable eateries, Elwood Bar & Grill is a retro art deco diner serving up American favourites. It was built in 1936 at the corner of Elizabeth Street and Woodward Avenue, but had to move to make way for Comerica Park in 1997. After the move, the diner was given a thorough makeover. Owing to its proximity to Comerican Park and Ford Field, it is popular with sports fans.

Address: 300 Adams Avenue (at Brush), Detroit, United States
Telephone: (313) 962 2337

Coach Insignia

Located at the top of the Renaissance Centre, this place is the second highest restaurant in the USA. The panoramic views of Detroit are amazing, and the contemporary American food isn't bad either. A world-class wine list makes this one of Detroit's finest dining experiences.
