Ford's Garage, a restaurant styled to resemble a 1920s automotive service station with vintage cars and memorabilia, is in the works for downtown Dearborn, Crain's Detroit Business reports.
The 200-seat restaurant, which has a name-licensee deal with Ford Motor Co., is expected to open in spring 2017 at 21367 Michiganin Ave. next to the John D. Dingell Transit Center in a 13,200-square-foot development that is expected to include a banquet room, a coffee shop and a merchandise store, Kirk Pinho of Crain's writes. There are already four locations in Florida.
Billy Downs, a Detroit native who co-founded BD's Mongolian Grill, will run the new site.
The menu includes a group-size 10-pound hamburger called "Henry Ford's Hub Cap" and more than 100 craft beers, Crain's reports.
One of the Ford's Garage restaurants in Florida posts thise:
Ford’s Garage pays tribute to a true American legend, Henry Ford. The Original Ford’s Garage is located in Historic Downtown Ft. Myers, Florida just minutes away from where Henry Ford and Thomas Edison spent their winters. Ford’s Garage combines the look of a 1920’s service station with the feel of a modern day “around the corner” Prime Burger and Craft Beer Joint. Ford’s features one of the largest selections of American Craft Beer.
