When you’re a kid, having a birthday party is the best thing ever. But as we age out of themed birthday parties and birthday celebrations with cartoon characters, ice cream cakes and kid-friendly games and activities, marking another year gone by can feel a little, well, weird. In fact, as adults, we are sometimes discouraged from having birthday parties.

At Detroit Rolling Pub, that is where we draw the line. To us, another year around the sun is always worth a celebration. And if you’re going to throw a Detroit birthday party, we suggest you party with us.

Happy Detroit Birthday! How about a birthday
bar crawl?

Adult birthday party ideas don’t tend to be as freewheeling and fun as the birthday ideas of our youth. Often there’s some kind of very grownup dinner party or restaurant gathering, and if a birthday wish is made, it’s done via a single candle in a slice of cake rather than a flaming crown of candles stuck into an entire dessert.

We are not about that life. Birthdays are supposed to be a good time and when you’re looking for fun birthday ideas for adults in Detroit, that’s when the #1 pedal bike in the state comes rolling your way. Book one of our fleet of pedal bars, bring your own birthday beverages, make a playlist of your favorite tunes (we suggest a song from each year in the life of the birthday boy or girl) and pedal along a birthday pub crawl with one of lively and knowledgable guides, stopping at the coolest downtown bars and restaurants along the way.

Want to decorate the pedal bar with a birthday banner and balloons? Fine by us. Feel like handing out birthday hats and noisemakers? Be sure and bring enough for your guide. Want to bust out a rowdy version of “Happy Birthday” as you cruise the downtown streets? Be our guests.

Make that 21st birthday unforgettable

Milestone birthdays are always worth a party of any kind, but none more so than the 21st birthday. And while 21st birthday ideas vary, they’re sometimes hampered by a common obstacle. To speak plainly, 21st birthday party ideas tend to revolve around being legally old enough to buy and consume alcohol.

We’re not here to judge. We were 21 once. Instead, we’re here to facilitate a safer alternative to the standard 21 run.

A birthday bar crawl is often the top item on the list of things to do for a 21st birthday. However, figuring out transportation can be tricky enough to put a real damper on the plans. But not when you book the most popular pedal pub in the city to take you bar hopping for your downtown Detroit birthday in safety and style.

Give it some thought: Is there a more perfect 21st birthday idea? We sure don’t think so.

Unlike your car, as many as 16 people can ride on one of our pedal pubs. And also unlike your car, we provide the driver/guide so there’s no need to draw straws among your friends to figure out which one of you will spend this 21st birthday party stone cold sober. We even provide the ice to keep your drinks cold, something your car certainly does not offer. Of course, while we do encourage everyone to have a great time during your pedal bar Detroit birthday party, we also expect you to keep things somewhat under control and be respectful of the pedal bar, driver and surrounding folks who might not be on your birthday bar crawl with you. After all, you are 21 now.

If you’re looking for fun birthday ideas for adults in Detroit, you’ve rolled into the right place. All you need to do is book the pedal bar and invite some friends to the birthday celebration. We’ll handle the rest.
