Corktown Taphouse opens

A family-owned and operated restaurant has officially opened its doors in Detroit’s Corktown neighborhood. Corktown Taphouse delivers a unique combination of beverages, locally sourced cuisine, and entertainment options. Established by the family team of Ron and Michelle Moore and their son Mitchell, it serves as a gathering place for both locals and visitors. “Our vision is to create a welcoming environment where people can enjoy food, drink and entertainment together,” said Ron Moore, owner of Corktown Taphouse. The Taphouse boasts an impressive self-pour tap wall, offering over 70 craft beers, wines, sangrias, and a full bar with craft cocktails. The tap wall allows patrons to sample beverages at their own pace while enjoying entertainment options such as augmented reality dart lanes, live performances, trivia nights and duckpin bowling (a variation of ten-pin bowling that uses smaller balls and pins, and shorter lanes). There’s also a small play area for children, however after 8 p.m., the venue will be reserved for guests aged 21 and over. The interior, designed and constructed by Premier Construction & Design of Farmington Hills, blends modern elements with references to Detroit’s industrial past and features a large mural by Michigan artist, Austin Fabinski. Foodwise, Corktown Taphouse delivers two distinct options. Popular Detroit food truck “Agave and Lime” has a permanent space within the Taphouse featuring their famous fresh tacos, handcrafted rice bowls and build-your-own burritos. The 1834 Kitchen is the run by the Taphouse and offers up comfort pub food such as smashburgers, mac and cheese, chicken tenders and more. The Taphouse is committed to supporting local causes, including initiatives benefiting military veterans, youth programs, and sustainability efforts and plans to collaborate with local businesses and organizations to give back to the community. 1611 Michigan Avene, Detroit corktowntaphouse.com
