It was started by Paul Standley and Gene Simmions of KISS in 2021.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">The veteran restaurateurs will join Detroit rock radio giant Drew Lane to open the restaurant this March. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">The project started with operating franchisees, brothers Tony Yezbick and Danny Yezbick. They also own the longstanding bar Fifth Avenue, across the street, as well as 526 Main Piano Bar.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Food will be served on all three floors: the main dining area on ground level, the second-floor live music area and an open-air rooftop during warmer months. The menu will be like other Rock &amp; Brews locations, which have pub grub such as giant pretzels, wings, burgers, salads and pizza. Rock &amp; Brews spans across eight states, with many locations in California.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Lane has been working with the Rock &amp; Brews design team to incorporate as much music memorabilia from the city\u2019s past, including old WRIF stickers, Motown posters, garage rock-era flyers, radio chart lists, rock club ephemera, photos and articles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Lane was co-host of the award-winning \u201cThe Drew and Mike Show\u201d on WRIF (101.1-FM) for 20 years. He currently hosts \u201cThe Drew Lane Show\u201d podcast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Rock &amp; Brews is set to open this spring at 208 W.
