The lifestyle in Detroit · Metro Detroit · Wayne County
The lifestyle scene in Detroit, Michigan.
Detroit is America's great comeback city — industrial bones, a world-class music heritage, and a rebuilt downtown ringed by fiercely intact neighborhoods. The social scene runs warm, local, and loyal once you're in it.

What the scene looks like here
Detroit's scene runs two formats: Hidden Agenda, the boutique members' speakeasy branding itself the city's premium lifestyle club — four Prohibition-inspired floors, a cigar lounge, BYOB with attended bar service — and Wild Walker's in Dearborn Heights, the low-friction lifestyle bar and social club running since 2009, memberships available but not required. Speakeasy polish on one side, weekly bar regulars on the other.
