The Monarch Club

The Monarch Club is a rooftop bar occupying the penthouse of Detroit's meticulously restored Metropolitan Building, offering 360-degree panoramic views of downtown from the 13th floor. The sophisticated venue pays homage to Detroit's famed mid-century rooftop establishments like the Savoyard and Top of the Flame, reimagining their legacy for a modern era with rich interior design featuring deep blue and red hues, marble surfaces, upscale leather seating, and intimate banquettes. The bar specializes in classic yet innovative cocktails ranging from $20–$24, complemented by carefully selected spirits, wines, champagnes, and zero-proof libations, alongside refined small plates and shareable bites. With multiple indoor and outdoor spaces including firepits on three separate rooftop terraces, The Monarch Club serves as an upscale gathering place for sophisticated cocktail culture in downtown Detroit.
