History

Established in 1991.

Opened in 1991, JB Bamboozles in Dearborn was the first of 3 Bamboozles to open with two others, one being in Warren and the other in Farmington. The Dearborn location was expanded in 2001 to accommodate the growing number of patrons and parties reserved at the bar. The bar was sold in 2009 and had changed hands twice before returning to the hands of the original owners, Vince & Bill. Upon their return, «Bamboozles Dearborn» as it was commonly referred to, was re-​branded as JB Bamboozles Pub & Grille with less of a party atmosphere and more emphasis on comfort and great food at a great price. Though they still host numerous work and private parties, the atmosphere here is now one that makes you feel like your home.

Another Saturday nite and another awesome night… Corina went above and beyond… she rocks…

This place has great bar food! I got a french dip and it was really good. I hate how some places just give sliced deli roast beef, this place actually uses big juicy chunks of roast beef on theirs and there were chucks of beef in the au jus, It was pretty good. They have fries or home made chips as sides. I got the home made chips and they were great. Very crispy and the BBQ seasoning they put on them was good. My fiancé got the fries, they are crinkle cut and they came out crispy too, There is nothing worse to me then soggy fries but theirs were very crispy fresh and good. We ordered their Vinny sticks with parm cheese to start the meal. I LOVED THESE. they are not your average bread stick, the dough has almost a doughnut dough texture to it, light and fluffy. You can order the vinny sticks with cinnamon and sugar as well but we didn’t try those. I would have given this place a higher score but their beer selection brings my rating down. they did have some oberon and some other bells selection on tap but that wasn’t enough to give them a 4 like i wanted to. If they add some more taps and put some more Michigan beers on tap i will change my rating but until then they stay at a 3.

The rating is probably right where it should be. The menu is on par for any bar, but the food quality is above average. Short beer selection knocks it down from a 4 to a 3 for me.

For a quick lunch, Bamboozle’s is a good option, especially considering they’re practically the only bar in East Dearborn.
Their menu features mostly burgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, soups and salads. Nothing particularly jumped out at me, so I just went with chicken fingers. My lunch mates ordered a chicken sandwich and a Philly. They both loved their sandwiches, and I really enjoyed my chicken fingers. The sandwiches were served with chips or crinkle fries. I sampled both, and they were really tasty!
The service was fine but the place was also dead, so I’m not sure what it’d be like if there were more people in there.
They had a TouchTunes jukebox that I could control from my phone, and I also saw a pool table and a few TVs. I’d imagine this is a perfectly adequate bar to hang out in for a few drinks with friends. It’s nothing special but it’s not a complete dive, either.

I like this place but I can’t help but whine about not having a delicious Guinness on tap. Granted last time I went they actually had something better from Ann Arbor. I guess as long as they have a delicious Irish stout on tap then I will shut up about it. Big Big Bonus points if they did it with Nitrous. Ever had a Guinness out of a clean nitrous tap??? I just feel like it’s the stable of a good Irish bar. Anyway the ladies have always been good to me and the bus they do for the St Paddy’s day parade is tons of fun. My liver disagrees. Also those apple pie shots will sneak up on you. I guarantee it.

Went to comedy night, loved it. Ordered jalapeño poppers and burnt the hell out of my mouth. Not amazing when it cooled down either. Orange cheese? Weird. Will return for comedy again but will stick to drinks.

I don’t think they ever changed the fry oil. they have a big beer list of Michigan beers but they were out of most of what anyone at the table ordered.

Nice place, good prices. Owner very kind. Did not like that before, because girls from near by club were often visiting,… Good food and good prices on drinks and draft beer.

Nice bar with great burgers. Had the ½ lb. burger with kraut, Swiss and corned beef on a pretzel bun. With fries, that cost about $ 8. Well worth the price. Also, lots of TVs and reasonably priced drinks. I will be back.

Living in Dearborn, we don’t have a ton of neighborhood bars. My husband and I have tried most of them and this is by far our favorite. This is not a party bar. It’s just a quiet place with lots of regulars. Newbies are always welcome though. Usually they run a drink special or two on the weekends. They are also starting to get more Michigan beers on draft as well as bottled. There is a dart board, pool table and a juke box. Lots of TVs if you want to check out a game. Saturday nights at 8p they have a trivia game and it gets pretty crowded then. The trivia is fun and free and you can win prizes. I know they do bus trips to casinos as well as Tigers games. I’ve never been but it looks like a good time. Drink prices are pretty average. I’d say a mixed drink is around 4 dollars and beer, depending on the brand is 3 or 4 as well. Their pizza is excellent. They tend to run out of dough towards the later hours though so if you’re looking to eat, order early. Usually a pretty mixed crowd as far as age goes. Many men tend to frequent the bar. Sometimes I’m the only lady there besides the bar tenders. But, that doesn’t bother me. :)

Place is awesome! We frequent this haunt after work several days a week and I must say best waitstaff in town. Talkative, friendly and just down right nice people make this place a great place to hang out and blow off steam after work.

There aren’t a lot of bars in predominantly Muslim East Dearborn anymore but the ‘boozler is a hold-​out. Bamboozles is part neighborhood pub and part sports bar. Since the business was sold a few months ago, they have added at least a dozen plasma TVs so you can always catch whatever game you may want to see.
The crowd is pretty diverse in age and race. Often you will find some of the girls from BT’s next door come over here for a drink before or after their shift mingling with a city councilman or a guy who thinks he is Michael Jackson. The oddest thing is that this place does extremely well on weeknights and can be a virtual ghost town on the weekends.
They have typical bar food (pizza, burgers etc) if you are hungry but it’s nothing to write home about. There is Megatouch and darts if you wanna get off ur duff. Not much of a dance floor. The waitstaff is friendly and quick enough. Moderately priced (there are specials if you look and dont mind being a bit flexible).
My only beefs are that the bartenders don’t know how to make a lot of drinks (my girlfriend had to explain how to make a dirty girl scout) and that the draft beer selection is pretty limited. Last time I was there, they had set up the back area as a smokeeasy but you could smell it up front by the bar.
