Dara FisherMay 11, 2015Hands-down my favorite bar in Ann Arbor! They have a bagillion beers on tap, and I also love both the chicken tenders and the mac & cheese (although everyone else gets the pesto fries).
Gaurav SikkaSeptember 28, 2014Over 70 beer taps and about 100 bottles. This is one of the best beer destinations in Ann Arbor. Try the Michigan IPAs, hand pulled ales or a Jolly Pumpkin sour beer!
By far one of my favourite bars in Ann Arbor. Great atmosphere and a kickass beer selection. Servers are helpful if you're having trouble deciding what you want. Great bar food too!
Andrea MMarch 26, 2015Great beer, scotch, waffles, and wings! Can't go wrong here. Also "friends don't let friends drink cheap beer" written on the waiters' t-shirts is the cherry on top of the cake.
Lars LarslarsJanuary 24, 2013Best bar in A2. I've been to Ann Arbor 3 times and I've visited Ashley's every time. Do not miss this bar.
Renee DeanNovember 23, 2017Really sweet place. Good was delicious & amazing selection of beer on tap. Reminded me of Old Sheleighly in Detroit.
Jim Masullo ⚾🍻🎸🎶August 8, 2014Mammoth beer list with huge amounts of Michigan beers -- this is a must stop place for craft beer fans🍻🎉
ConnorJune 15, 2015A nice selection of local craft beers. Old Fashions are delicious here. Very tasty. The vibe is a little bit more hipster here than I expected.
Never had a bad meal here, Pesto fries and Rattlesnake chicken pasta are amazing. Best selection of beer in town, great cocktails too
Brendhan GivensMarch 22, 2012The wife and I enjoyed our time here on the day after the wedding. The honeymoon was in full swing, and we tried a number of delicious alcoholic beverages--she found out that she liked lambic.- Kevin HeintschelJune 1, 2013Daniel will lead you to a beer you'll enjoy. What a great start to our A2 rod trip. Stilton fries... Ask for extra jalapeño ranch dip.
Best beer and bourbon selection in Ann Arbor. Chowder is worth checking out.
Men's Health MagAugust 3, 2014Ashley’s is the local beer Mecca, featuring more than 70 beers on tap and hundreds more available by the bottle. The drink menu looks more like a novel. Read more
All the food here is amazing, try the artichoke dip, best I've ever had by far! Don't forget to check the rotating taps, and get an Ashley's card for rewards
Keith LamprechtAugust 13, 2014My favorite bar in Ann Arbor, most taps you'll find anywhere around, great food and trivia too!
Karl EdelmannJuly 18, 2013Lost Scotch distilleries. A whiskey list to die for. Great bar food. Art Fair and great friends! An awesome place.
Christian WarzochaAugust 3, 2019Great beer selection and the jukebox music was on point. Food was another story. Had the special (fish po’boy) and it was fine. Nothing we had was remarkable. Not bad but nothing to come back for.
Always order something off the rotating taps! Also, start a beer tour if you'll be here a lot.
Jake SmithJuly 27, 2013If you're undecided, try a flight. The dish they serve the beer in has a label (under each glass) distinguishing which beer is which.
The BEST beer selection in town! Sure we all have our personal favorites, but when at Ashley's, encourage yourself to try something new from their wide selection. So many options! :)
Bill CJune 22, 2015Pretty awesome beer selection. Great mixed drinks as well. I had a n awesome bullet old fashioned.
Rachael WilsonMay 20, 2014Great beer selection. Skip the rest of the menu and go straight to the loaded waffle fries. There's no wrong answer there!- Paul KuhnMay 8, 2012Best beer selection in AA (and my fave spot as an undergrad). Get a draught sampler and the cherry stout pork tenderloin.
Brian O'KellyAugust 3, 2013Got the table at the front window! Awesome. Get the clam chowder and put Frank's red hot on it. Best soup ever!!
Anne VargaSeptember 15, 2011The grilled shrimp on the ceasar salad was amazing and my friend Geoff had the Viking mead (honey wine) and said it was perfection!
Varun ShettySeptember 27, 2012If you're in undergrad and you go here, you need to take yourself less seriously. But there's an amazing selection of beers.- Men's Health MagAugust 3, 2014Ask for an Ashley’s “passport” to earn rewards like food or gear as you sample the bar’s many international suds. Read more
Amazing selection of beer and whiskey! They have a downstairs section that is open once in a while.- Start the Ultimate Whiskey Tour and the Ultimate Beer Tour! Its a fun race with friends, new and old.
julie rajagopalDecember 27, 2012Ask the bartender their theory on the great safe heist of 2002. Tell them you suspect Jeff.
Frankenmuth BrewerySeptember 9, 2011One of the best beer selections in Ann Arbor... Make sure you try a Frankenmuth next time!
The beer selection is great. Try filling out an entire beer passport. Don't cross the waitresses.
Besides all the wonderful beers, the clam chowder is out of this world.
Dirk K.March 18, 2011Great selection of beers, even important brands from czech republic are on draft.
Sean Michael PatrickAugust 6, 2017Sexist bar staff re-id'd only women after entering the bar during a wedding reception ad refused service to women over 21 on the "assumption" they weren't. Pigs.

"Cocktails, obviously. Great whiskey selection (half price on Wednesdays?!), good fries (though this may be correlated with half price whiskey)."
