Thompson & Co. lives at 400 North River Street in Ypsilanti's historic Depot Town — a place rooted in updated southern cuisine, country cooking, and the simple belief that good food brings people together.
The Food, Straight from the South
Gulf shrimp over stone-ground cheddar grits, buttermilk fried chicken, gumbo, étouffée, and pizzas with a Southern twist. MLive called it "classic southern comfort" — that's exactly our standard.
A Civil War-Era Building, Made New
The Ann Arbor Observer described it as "a clean, New York loft look with a high-end vibe." The Civil War-era Thompson Block delivers: exposed brick, industrial lighting, and a dog-friendly patio on the street.
The Bar Program
Craft cocktails like the Fairytale in Ypsi — bourbon, cinnamon, rosemary, and a red wine float — sit alongside Michigan craft beers from Jolly Pumpkin, North Peak, and Old Nation. The bar is where the night takes its time.
Ypsilanti's Gathering Place
Social hours, weekend brunch, private events, live music — Thompson & Co. is Depot Town's place to show up and stay awhile.
