About this Experience
What you'll do:
Hop aboard Detroit’s original pedal-powered party on wheels! With the Detroit Rolling Pub, you and your crew can legally bring your own beer, wine, or liquor as you cruise through the heart of downtown. Pedal (with the help of an electric motor) past iconic landmarks, vibe to your custom playlist via the onboard Bluetooth speaker, and stop at some of the city's best bars—many offering exclusive drink specials just for riders. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, bachelorette, or just a sunny Saturday, this is Detroit’s #1 way to roll.
Why we love it for your party:
BYOB (beer, wine, and liquor welcome—just no kegs)
Bluetooth sound system (you control the playlist)
Electric pedal assist (so you can party without breaking a sweat)
Coolers and cup holders provided (stay refreshed and hands-free)
Feel like a VIP (Exclusive drink specials at partner bars)
Pedal & sip (Flexible routes with stops at top Detroit bars and rooftops)

Frequently Asked Questions
Safety
Detroit Rolling Pub takes the highest pride in safety. All of our drivers go through a mandatory two-week training program, and our bikes are put through rigorous testing on a regular basis to ensure they are at peak performance at the time of operation. In addition, we are the only bar bikes in Detroit with seat backs! While these provide a better and more comfortable ride, we chose to include these on our bikes as an extra measure of security and safety for all of our passengers. Lastly, we take the City Of Detroit’s rules and regulations very seriously so please be sure to listen to your driver.
