About this place Escape Lounge

Escape Lounge is a gay-owned bar at 19404 Sherwood Street on Detroit's east side. It used to be called Stingers Lounge. Pride Source and Travel Gay both list it as a men's bar known for after-hours nights. The crowd is mostly local, and it's a neighbourhood spot rather than a destination club. The bar is a long way from downtown and Midtown, so plan on a car or rideshare. It has no website in our data and recent coverage is thin, so check its social pages for current hours before you head out.
