My parents used to go to the Soup Kitchen and took us there for lunch a few times. Wasn't it in an old warehouse down by the Detroit River?

Yes-- it was thought to be the oldest bar in the city, dating back to 1850. It was closed because of one of the dopey casino plans for that area (which never came to fruition).
