Aubree’s Pizzeria and Tavern – Ypsilanti Township

January 14, 2010

Aubree’s is a long time institution in Ypsilanti, my adopted hometown. The original establishment graces Depot Town, a wonderful little strip of restaurants and bars just a mile down the road from Eastern Michigan University.

Pretty much every city has a road that contains the majority of their restaurants.  Sort of a central eating location, if you will.  For Ypsilanti, that road is Washtenaw ave.  This stretch used to be home to mostly fast food and local breakfast joints, but it has recently made the ...
