Kalamazoo bars certainly offer up something for every walk of life, and each attracts a specific clientele. Some have mastered the art of making space for conversation. Other's beg you to join in cheering along to see a football victory. From old wood to neon signs, every bar is unique from one to another.

So, if Kalamazoo bars had Tinder profiles, would you swipe right... or left?
