Kid Rock, the iconic American musician, has launched a new dining establishment in Nashville called ‘The Detroit Cowboy,’ offering a blend of steak, seafood, and fine-dining experiences. This venture is a collaborative effort with Joe Muer, a restaurateur from Kid Rock’s hometown of Detroit, which reflects the singer’s deep roots in the city. The restaurant, which opened its doors to the public with a grand celebration, has drawn attention from prominent figures such as Dennis Quaid and Lee Greenwood, a Grammy-winning singer who performed at the event.
During a live interview with Fox News’ Steve Doocy at the venue, Kid Rock humorously declared that he consumes his breakfast at 1 p.m. or 5 p.m., challenging conventional notions about when one should eat. When Doocy pointed out that this timing resembles lunch, Kid Rock maintained that his approach to meal times was personal and unique. The restaurant is also notable for its interior design that showcases memorabilia from his musical career and an inspirational message on its walls, encouraging visitors to ‘Go Where You’re Celebrated Not Tolerated.’
Additionally, the venue has received a favorable mention from President Donald Trump, who endorsed it on his Truth Social platform, highlighting the restaurant’s alignment with his MAGA philosophy. ‘Congratulations to my friend, Kid Rock (I call him Bob!), on the Grand Opening of his new Nashville restaurant, ‘The Detroit Cowboy,’ Trump wrote. ‘I hear it is a very friendly MAGA establishment, and look forward to going there sometime soon.’
Kid Rock was also present at the White House in late March for the signing of an executive order targeting unfair scalping of concert tickets, which he shared with Trump. This partnership underscores the significance of the restaurant’s role in the broader cultural and political landscape. The establishment is positioned as a place where customers can ‘come for some good food and chill,’ reflecting Kid Rock’s commitment to a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience.
