Shorty's Bar & Grill 4769 Dixie Highway, Waterford Township, MI 48329

"I love a good dive bar, this one is fairly typical in that regard. The food is OK, pretty normal for a bar. It is a dive, if you like dives, the atmosphere is just right. Only real knock on this place is service is pretty poor. Bartenders take their time and seem to show extreme preferential treatment to regulars. I get it - but at times waiting 20-30 minutes to get service is just not going to make you want to go back. Can't stay thirsty for that long!"

"I love this place!! Very good atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Pretty good food options. Darts, Keno, karaoke, trivia. Good fun. Fast service, attentive servers. Out door upper deck in the summer. A good diverse group of patrons. Always a good crowd, and a fun time. Don't forget to ask the bartender about their house wine. The bathrooms are always there is an outside heated smoking shack"

"Food is great. Sometimes it's a little crowded at night in the summers. They have an outdoor smoking area that is semi heated in the winter."

"Last night was my first time there. We sat on the deck even though it was a chilly evening, they had the heaters on so it was ok. It took a little while for a waitress to get our drink orders but she explained that it was only two of them at the time..she took our food order as well. The drinks came quickly and they were really good, the food came out after about 15 minutes and it was still warm! Everything we ate was well seasoned and cooked properly. Overall the entire experience was a good one, the waitress took her time and explained drink selections, I really enjoyed her conversation. The atmosphere was perfect for us because we don’t like shoulder to shoulder type of places. The music was a nice vibe as well! I’ll definitely be returning!"
