Looking for a new sports bar to check out? Look no further than this new arrival. Called Detroit City Clubhouse, the newcomer is located at 3401 E. Lafayette St. inside the Detroit City Fieldhouse.

The Detroit City FC soccer club debut the indoor sports facility in October, with one field for soccer and lacrosse, and another for baseball, softball and football practice, Eater reports. Now the spacious new Clubhouse adds an all-ages venue for eating, drinking, socializing, and watching live or televised sports.

In addition to beer and cocktails, Detroit City Clubhouse serves classic bar snacks. Look for items like the Irish nachos made of potato chips that are smothered in cheese sauce with bacon and green onion. Or, try the chicken wings, served dry or with traditional Buffalo sauce or sweet-and-spicy Thai sauce.

As for heartier meals, the bar offers signature savory pies, like the Vietnamese chicken sausage pie — made with ground chicken, lemongrass, sage, green onions and cheddar. Or go meatless with the The One Without The Animals pie, made of roasted butternut squash, roasted almonds, sautéed spinach and mushrooms and served with mushroom gravy. A children's menu is also available.

The newcomer has already attracted fans thus far, with a five-star rating out of three reviews on Yelp.

Rachel P., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Oct. 28, wrote, “There are awesome pasties and a bunch of other shareable bar snacks. It’s a great spot to catch a game on TV, in person or hang out when there's not a game (open evenings and weekends).”

Yelper Joanna H. added, “This clubhouse is beautiful. The building lives and breathes Detroit City Football Club. The food and the drinks, everything is perfect. The traditional meat and vegetarian, even vegan, pies are amazing. The salads are great too. There’s a varied but delicious beer and cider selection.”

Head on over to check it out: Detroit City Clubhouse is open from 11 a.m.–11 p.m. on Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m.–2 a.m. on Friday, 7 a.m.–2 a.m. on Saturday, and 7 a.m.–11 p.m. on Sunday.
