If you don’t know what a gastropub is, a trip to Bar 145 will give you the proper introduction.

They advertise themselves as a burgers, bands, and bourbon place, but you can also get gourmet burgers you would expect to find in top restaurants.

The restaurant boasts 25 kinds of bourbon and some very good bands, features that regularly draw huge crowds. With its large patio and high tables, the enormous 50-seat oval bar, and a number of flat screen TVs, the atmosphere is very lively. Burgers are served on fine white china, the quality meat comes from Myers Ranch, Grand Rapids, a local baker provides the fresh buns, and Zingerman’s in Ann Arbor delivers the flavorful artisan cheese. There are also 20 house made sauces, allowing you to have a completely individualized dining experience.
