Enjoy the summer months in the outdoor seating section! – Very attentive wait staff on our last visit. Probably visit 10 or so times per year. This place is high on our list now that summer is here--great outdoor seating along Woodward--some of it is covered, the rest is open. Started with drinks and pretzel appetizer. Told waitress we wanted to wait on dinner. Not hurried at all. Ordered chicken and avocado quesadilla and salad to split. Avocado slices in quesadilla were hard--not yet ripe. Told waitress and she happily swa... read more

Good Times at the WAB – I was shocked to see bad reviews of the WAB. While not a regular, we still go about 8-10 times a year for the past few years and have never had a bad experience. I don't know how someone could hold the restaurant responsible for a long wait. They can't kick people out of their seats. Take a look around. Is there anyone else waiting in front of you? If there are 10-15 tables in front of you at the WAB its going to be a bit of a wait. There are tons of places on Woodward so if takes you 5-10 minutes to ... read more

Bad service/managment, great food, you choose – I will assume you are someone who works there or, that is a good friend of one of those rude waitresses, because if you were not, you wouldnt expect people to wait a total of 2 1/2 hours at a resturant to even eat!! Seriously that cannot be exceptable with you, busy or not. Two of the people I frequent there with are waitresses and they get more angry than I do, they know how things should be ran. I see a lot of the staffs friends there every time I go, so are you one of them, ... read more

EXTREMELY RUDE MANAGEMENT and PERSONNEL – I sat a few tables away from an older gentleman whom was approached by management about the tips he left for the waitstaff. It seemed as though they recognized him as a regular. The manager went on to explain that he can't have the man coming in and being served without leaving at least a minimum gratuity. I don't have direct quotes from the exchange, however, I noticed that the manager was going a little beyond his duty to be rude to the man. A waitress also discussed the matter wit... read more

A hip, laid-back, two-story brewery, this bar offers good beer, food, music and decor. – In Short With in-house brewed beer on tap, a funky mix is drawn of hipsters and professionals. Great food, from burritos to burgers, is on the menu, while the ambience is eclectic. Wood floors and booths make it cozy. On weeknights, stop in for a quick meal; on weekends join the crowd for drinks at the bar. A deck and sidewalk seating make the WAB a great stop in the summer months.

Great Jukebox, Good Food in Ferndale – Definitely not your typical bar fare. The food ranges from a variety of cold burritos to above average sandwiches to a WAB appetizer favorite consisting of pretzel rods served in a pint glass with a mixture of homemade mustards (while this doesn't sound very special, you must try it to understand). The food definitely gets an A but the beer is somewhat iffy at times (the vanilla porter is your safest bet). The outdoor portion consists of open air seating downstairs and a handful of tabl... read more

Nice WABos – Great place to hang! Upstairs or down, this is is a favorite! Try the thai wraps - they rock! Great brewed beer - even for the non-connoisseur. Everything here is just cool - right down to the license plate menus! Great place to catch up w/ the old gang!
