01 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Mike's Pizza Bar is Little Caesars Arena's in-house pizza bar, open only during arena events, so you'll be here with a game or concert ticket. It's a tribute to Mike Ilitch, who started making pizza in the early 1950s in the back kitchen of Haig's Bar at Livernois and Tireman before founding Little Caesars. Expect handcrafted pizzas, regional craft beers and a solid wine list in a sports-bar atmosphere.
