Weekends, it's a hodgepodge of neighborhood folks, partying collegians, east side barhoppers and sports fans drawn by the multitude of TVs. The Excalibur Park occupies what once were three storefronts on one of Grosse Pointe Woods' downtown retail strips. You won't get lost, but it's pretty big. It's the sort of place where the regulars greet each other by name and nearly have assigned seats. Decor at the Excalibur is incidental, almost an afterthought.
Comfort comes first.
Brewing company posters, mirrors and banners suffice for visual stimuli. It's on the young and boisterous side on weekends. On Fridays and Saturdays, you're pretty much there to party. During the week, the crowd thins, and forty- and fiftysomethings come looking for cold beer, cheap eats and a place to kick back with friends. A Friday or Saturday night visit would be your best bet if you're in search of love's nearest approximation.
