Delicious food, and a great beer menu. Kind of a cool location above a market. Would love to come back on a weekend when it's a bit livelier. We went on Wednesday evening before a concert at Pine Knob.

I booked Parker's Hilltop because it was in Clarkston and close to DTE Music theater and we were going to a concert. The place was very spacious and very nice! I would love to sit at the bar next time I come. The beer I had was amazing and the pierogis where delicious! Oh, and the fried pickles were soooooo good!!! This was a great place to enjoy some great food and drinks before hitting a show at DTE which is usually when I go out to Clarkston. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
