Flint, Michigan

Craft drinks poured with purpose. Real music played with soul.

Tucked along North Chevrolet Avenue, Rube's Booze and Blues is Flint's no-nonsense destination for expertly crafted cocktails, a curated beer selection, and the kind of live music that stays with you long after the last set.

Built on good music,
strong drinks, and
honest hospitality.

Rube's Booze and Blues wasn't conceived as a trend — it was built out of a genuine love for what makes a bar feel like home. From the first note of live music to the clink of ice in a freshly shaken cocktail, every detail is intentional.

We're proud to be a Flint staple where regulars know the bartenders by name, where the music isn't background noise but the heartbeat of the room, and where the drink menu changes with the seasons but never with the crowd-pleasing basics you can get anywhere.
