18 years old
Alcohol Serving Hours
7:00 AM - 2:00 AM
Certification Required
No state certification required

Michigan does not require a specific bartending license, but bartenders must be at least 18 years old. The Michigan Liquor Control Commission oversees alcohol licensing for establishments. While the state does not mandate server training, many Michigan employers require completion of a responsible alcohol service program. Michigan's serving hours run from 7:00 AM to 2:00 AM. Detroit's growing cocktail scene and Grand Rapids' status as a craft beer destination create strong demand for skilled bartenders.
