A Local Favorite: Pub 111
Located at 111 W Colby St. in Whitehall, Pub 111 is a relaxed bar & grill with three distinct seating areas so you can pick how lively you want your evening. The menu features classic pub fare, burgers, wraps, perch baskets, and the bar pours a rotating selection of Michigan craft beers alongside a full drink menu. With its welcoming vibe and downtown location, it’s become a go-to spot in the White Lake area for food, drinks, and entertainment.
The Music Scene at Pub 111
The live-music vibe at Pub 111 is a key part of what makes it stand out. They regularly book local and regional acts spanning rock, pop, blues, and classic hits. For example, a show in October 2024 by the band Group Therapy delivered “rock, pop and blues from a multi-generational perspective” with songs you can sing along to and dance to. The venue’s three seating areas give you options: you might relax with background music in one section, sing-along in another, or hit the dance floor in the third.
When it comes to schedule, Pub 111 frequently posts upcoming events. On the listing site Bandsintown, the next listed concert is by the band Velvet Mushroom Syndicate on December 13 (year not explicitly stated). Another source lists an event on Friday, December 12, 2025 at 8:00 pm featuring the band Bar Code, which covers “A to Z (AC/DC to ZZ Top) … from old (Beatles, Janis Joplin, Hendrix) to new (Maroon 5, P!nk, Katy Perry)”.
So if you’re planning, mark your calendar for the upcoming weekend show at 8:00 pm and check Pub 111’s social media or website to confirm details and any cover charge.
