Royal Oak's Main Street is the epicenter of trendy in metro Detroit. Many chains have taken hold here, but turn the corner to its downtown sidestreets to find more eclectic fare. Wherever you roam, you won't be alone. Its nightspots lure in the crowds around the clock.

If Royal Oak has two faces, Sharon likes them both: sipping some vino in a posh wine bar and slamming back cold ones in what's pretty much literally a hole in the wall.

Jayme likes crowded bars and drink specials, without a college-kid swill-beer aesthetic, thank you very much. Grey Goose and "trendy without trying" is more his style.

If you can brave the cigarette smoke, Lindsey knows where to find the bar with 100 beers. If you can brave the tofu, she'll show you the best places for cheese, beans and greens, too.
