New brunches, happy hours & more

Bar Pigalle, offering playfully modern French fare and cocktails in Detroit’s Brush Park, now hosts brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. The new brunch menu features French classics such as shallot tarte tatin, croque madam, mushroom and leek quiche, French omelet, and cinnamon brioche French toast. MEX in Bloomfield has also recently added a weekend brunch. The menu includes Mexican inspired dishes such as chorizo brunch skillet, breakfast burrito and tres leche French toast. In addition, MEX also offers “Wine Wednesdays” with half-off all wine bottles all day and “Thirsty Thursdays,” featuring half-off draft and bottled beers. The Geode Bar & Lounge, located inside the lobby of Daxton Hotel now has an oyster happy hour. The oysters are mainly sourced from the west coast and the type will vary each week. The oysters pair perfectly with the bar’s seasonal fall cocktails or champagne. Lastly, the Daxton Delights walk up window has partnered with Bakehouse 46 to offer cider and donuts alongside house-made seasonal ice cream flavors, including the cider house sundae – a donut tossed with cider-roasted apples and topped with one scoop of ice cream, candied pecans and cider caramel. barpigalle.com mexbloomfield.com daxtonhotel.com
