“The food was delicious lite and filling. I had the fish that was very flavorful with both types of rice. I like the second rice better than the coconut rice. The chicken was good just wished it could've been a chicken breast. Next time I will try the goat shank it looked delicious. The avocado desert surprised me and was delicious and lite. Nankya was simply a beautiful hostess with excellent recommendations.Vegetarian options: Food isn't loaded with oils, sugar, the corn salad was delicious the peanut butter spinach was tastyDietary restrictions: No paprika, lite, other options, hostess food awarenessKid-friendliness: No kids were there on my visit, if your kid is a healthy eater then yes. I don't recommend for kids because they wouldn't appreciate better eating habits.Wheelchair accessibility: There is wheelchair accessibility into the building and 1 private wheelchair accessible restroom. Call ahead if you're a spacious type of person it's a small cozy place with delicious food“
“We had the mango cloud cake slice, blueberry cloud cake slice, tiramisu latte, and the honey lavendar latte. All were amazing and 10/10. The cake wasn't too sweet but instead a more subtle taste (my favorite), tasted like the actual fruit in its name, and had the fruit in it. The honey lavendar has a stronger taste of sweetness and lavendar. Get it iced. The tiramisu latte we got hot and it was also not sweet and a more subtle tiramisu taste. The cake slices were $6-$7 a slice. The lattes $5-$5.50. Reasonable prices. The service was great. There is a nice seating area inside and outside. Our favorite cafe/bakery place in Troy. Will come again.“
“Love this place! I've never been unhappy with a drink I've ordered and the staff has always been so kind and helpful. I'm jealous I don't work there - it looks like a blast! Excellent atmosphere.I'm dying for the ube syrup they had this summer. I think about it weekly lol“
“Omg this place is life customer service was impeccable. The atmosphere is lovely, comfortable and inviting with a laid-back feel. Most definitely go and visit. The only thing I would say is parking is awful because of its location. Definitely is a hidden gem in the Detroit area. Go and visit coffee was delicious and also was the Old fashioned ?“
“This place is absolutely amazing! The most authentic Greek food in Detroit. The Gyros are soooo good and packed with meat for the price. Next, the fries are the best. Hand cut and seasoned to perfection. There is a nice selection of soda fountain drinks, but try the Freddo coffee it's so good. The donuts are little pieces of heaven. Staff is super friendly and service is fast. I love this place!Parking: Parking across the street.“
“Popped into this cute little spot and was amazed. There is something for everyone on this menu from an extensive list of Belgian beers to an excellent list of classic and inventive cocktails and even an interesting wine list so grab your buds and come check it out. Also, I have to go back and check out their sourdough pizza which I have heard is fabulous. It doesn't happen until after six.“
“Loved finding this gem! Very serene and an adventurous menu. The service was absolutely amazing. Plenty of seating inside, spacious, and good vibes. They serve Turkish coffee and Yemin lattes. Desserts too. Parking is lot parking right in front. You will pay for top quality coffee, display and all. So expect to pay top dollar and it is so worth it! Can't wait to return!“
“I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful staff at Apple Fritters. Their donuts are simply irresistible, and the staff always greets you with a warm smile. I've been a loyal customer for years, and I'm thrilled to say that the donuts are consistently fresh and delicious every single timeParking: FreeKid-friendliness: Awesome Donuts“
“Great spot/environment in terms of coffee shops! Owner and employees are always friendly and welcoming, and just a nice place to have in the Detroit community. Wifi may or may not be working depending on the day, but still giving it a 5 star for all the good this place has to offer, totally recommend!!“
“Such a beautiful atmosphere with a good amount of seating including some comfy chairs. Friendly service and delicious food and beverage. The Dexter Delight is dangerously delicious! It's an egg and cheese on a warm donut. There's the option to add bacon or sausage. Definitely a must try! The Cup of Gold was also great. I live in the area and appreciate the free wifi as a place to do some work outside of home. They also have some games for use including a tic tac toe board and a couple chess boards which is a thoughtful touch. Great way to support local business ☺️❤️“
“Place was packed on a Saturday morning which is always a good sign. Store was clean and had a pleasant vibe. Service was friendly.Had their "Qamaria latte" which I assume must be a signature drink. Double shot of espresso with cardamom and cinnamon. I don't think I've ever had cardamom in a coffee drink before but WOW. It adds all sorts of floral notes which give an intense depth of flavor. Insanely tasty. I also got a slice of baklava that was drenched in honey. Super yummy.Definitely lived up to the hype!“
“I came all way to Canada to try this place!! (my girlfriend also lives in royal oak) I love the atmosphere and combining science with a sweet treat! Definitely a must try! The owner is awesome and you can really tell he loves what he’s doing! Also the gnomes a nice touch “
“Was in the area so decided to stop by and so glad I did. They have lots of unique flavors that I throughly enjoyed. I loved my pear bagel and chai with carrot cake syrup. I ordered online and they waited to put ice in my drink until I was there so it wouldn't get watered down. If I was a living in Detroit, I could see myself becoming a regular.“
“Mr Chimetime had me feening over some pie!!:So I ordered the chocolate pie it was good, but the banana crunch with caramel it’s amazing I love the consistency of the salted maple and banana crunch pies better and then the cream of the crop the banana bread warmed up with your fav beverage made me want to go to sleep. Now the service top notch beautiful ladies answering all my questions! When I come back in town I will stop by.“
Coffee Shops • $
“Service is always fantastic. The owner is a sweetheart who takes pride in the quality of products and the overall establishment. Great coffee and drinks. Wide variety of pastries and goodies. Overall very chill atmosphere and great community spot.“
“The first callout I have to make is I absolutely LOVE the diversity of choices in this menu. They have so much more unique options than your standard coffee shop and all of them are so different. Their menu represents so many countries and regions, including Moroccan, Hong Kong, Brazilian, Spanish, Viennese, Vietnamese, Korean, Thai, Japanese, Indian, Sudanese, etc. This is a place that you can just keep coming back to and try completely different flavors and styles of coffee and tea with every visit and I really appreciate that. They also have small snack options, with my favorite being the Nutella taiayaki. This was a pleasant surprise for me since I'm generally not the biggest fan of classic red bean taiyaki. I ended up ordering the Brazilian style latte and my girlfriend got the London fog. We both loved our drinks and would definitely return to try others. As for the space, it's certainly not what I expected but I really liked the concept. Meillie Coffee is just one of a few vendors who all share a really large space (with TONS of seating). They also have sandwiches and ice cream available at the other vendors, so you can probably come here in the morning and end up spending enough time working until you want lunch from the other vendor as well.“
“If you're looking for a cozy spot to spend a delightful afternoon, I highly recommend my second favorite cafe. This place has everything you need to unwind and relax: from delicious coffee to a great selection of books, and a unique atmosphere that you won't find anywhere else. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to catch up with friends or enjoy some quiet time alone. Don't miss out on this hidden gem!“
Coffee Roasteries • $$
“It's very easy to see why this little spot has so many 5 star reviews. It's a small shop you would easily overlook. It's in the same plaza as the Italian restaurant, Mangiabevi. Got to meet and chat with the owners husband and he was such an inviting man and I enjoyed talking to him. I got the iced caramel macchiato; it was fantastic. Had the perfect amount of sweet and it tasted extremely fresh. The amazing thing about this unassuming spot is that they are a roasterie as well. Amazing customer service, amazing coffee, lots of cool trinkets and specialty items. I cannot wait to be back.“
“I've been here probably a dozen times for coffee and snacks. Finally got a larger meal today. The bread (possibly sourdough) is amazing. Some of the best I've had In the city. And it was a generous chunk with my soup. Next time I'm getting a sandwich “
“First time trying this place today; they are drive-thru only. I got an oatmilk latte that was great, I usually say all coffee tastes the same but this one was very good. The donut (birthday cake) was awesome, the outside was crispy but not hard, and the inside was soft. Pleasant, quick service - would visit again!Parking: There was parking available, but the place is drive-thru only, so you wouldn't need to park anyway.“
“I always enjoy working from here. The atmosphere is chill and conducive to quiet work or quiet reflection or people-watching. Conveniently so, I used to work in the office space directly above Atomic Coffee until only recently.Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“New bucket list: the sandwich menu here. Tasty and great value- and the coffee and banana bread was good as well. Friendly service, larger than normal selection of loose teas, and plenty of seating and parking. Support your local small business- especially one that will be a welcome addition to it's “
“Gathering Coffee Co was recommended to me by a local. During the first time visiting, I was given a warm welcome. Jacque, One of the owners of the shop greeted me and shared a delightful conversation. She provided me a great experience and answered all of my coffee questions. Isabelle was the barista that made my coffee and it was fantastic. The shop is very pretty. Seating is great. Wifi is provided to the public and shown on displays located throughout the shop. Outlets are everywhere. The interior decoration is vibrant enjoyable to see. Plants all around the shops. They have a really great retail display and options. There is a spot near the restroom where if anyone needed a clothing item, they can take it. As a coffee shop enthusiast, the experience is beautiful. Parking on the street between the shop and comic store is free. The space is not too crowded and a great place to study, do work, and meet up with friends. They've even got board games and books for individuals who want to do activities within. One side faces the street and contains large windows for a good street view. They also have a darkroom in the back for those who process their own film. It's worth asking about it to the owners. I highly recommend this local business.“
“I had been going to Birmingham Roast for years before Royal Oak Roast opened, and it is just as amazing as the original. Drinks are incredible (though the “Joy” drinks are pretty sweet, I always order half sweet), the breakfast burrito is a must try, as is the açaí bowl. They constantly have new “seasonal” menu items which is great for regulars to get something new to try. This will forever be my favorite coffee shop in the metro Detroit area!!“
“Drinks were great! Very nice ambiance, clean and aesthetically pleasing. I did notice there seemed to be one person working when I was there at 8 pm. No worries at all! Just hope they were okay during rushes! You might want to expect a little bit of a wait.“
“I cannot believe it took me so long to discover this not-so-hidden jewel, which is only minutes away from my home. My husband and I ditched our normal Saturday brunch to drop in on Detroit Sip. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about the products. Detroit Sip's vibe is like a warm, neighborly hug. The decor is whimsical and inviting. My caramel latte and cheese Danish were very goodMy husband also enjoyed his dark roast and muffin. We'll be back, in fact I tried to return the following Tuesday morning. Guess I should have paid attention to the hours listed.“
“Relaxed atmosphere, Father/son run store! Fairly priced and quality fresh roasted coffee. It's really a great spot to hang out and enjoy an expresso and also pick up a fresh roasted bag to go. The guys roast in store, frequently, beans sourced from all over the world, and they are very kind, excellent service!“
“This is my absolute favorite coffee place in the gp/scs area! Their oat milk cereal milk latte is the perfect flavor combination, not too sweet. The food is incredible as well, the made-to-order French toast bites are the best way to treat yourself! They have a good customer loyalty program and are also a great spot for gifts- apparel, mugs, k-cup pods and fresh coffee will not fail to impress your family and friends. Check them out!“
“They have a wide range of soft delectable bagels with multiple options for spreads and ways to eat them.Want an egg sandwich with sausage and bacon? They have it.Do you want a Parmesan Bagel with Honey Sriracha? They have it!If you have never been here, I'd recommend giving it a shot. It just might be your go to Bagel Spot!Parking: The location is in a strip of stores so the parking is actually behind the building. There was plenty of parking on a Saturday morning, which I have to imagine is a pretty high volume day for them.Kid-friendliness: This spot is very kid friendly. There were a good amount of parents who have brought their kids. Very upbeat positive music playing, and very friendly happy staff.“
“It is a little expensive but so worth it everything we have had from here has been super flavorful And delicious. I love that you can buy a few things like Tequenos and cachitos frozen since they have a little market area of Venezuelan snacks and foods. If you have a sweet tooth I recommend trying the chicha which tastes very similar to a rice pudding but in a thick drink form. This is a very unique place if you are looking to try Venezuelan food.“
“I absolutely love Crispelli's Bakery to pick up a treat and coffee either on the run or to linger over coffee chatting with friend(s).There's not one bad thing there but I especially love their cinnamon croissant rolls. Oh, breads fabulous but I am addicted to the lemon rosemary sea salt bread. Atmosphere also so pleasant and when nice out, outdoor patio is set up.Kid-friendliness: Kids always pop in with parents for bake goods and treats.“
“everything about The Fern is perfection - the owner is friendly and helpful, she's always supportive of everyone and genuinely builds connections.the teas are DELICIOUS - i have never had a bad one. and the coffee? it's WONDERFUL. the dark chocolate hazelnut latte is my absolute favorite.“
“I frequent this place every week as a nearby student. The coffee & food are excellent, and the service as well, everyone is very nice and i’ll stay there open to close working on school work. very cozy and great place to chat & work.“
“This place is amazing. Great coffee. Great food. Great bakery items. Most coffee shops have those things though. What truly set this place apart was the incredible service I (and others) received while in store. Angelina helped me out and provided some of the best service I've ever gotten in my life. The other employee who helped the people in front of me was extremely helpful figuring out what drinks would be best for a couple who was in for their first time and weren't sure what to get. All around a great experience.“
“We ordered a two tier vegan cake for my daughter’s birthday. It was absolutely delicious!! My daughter is allergic to eggs and enjoyed it… so did everyone else (non-vegans). That was my goal and For the Love of Sugar delivered. I do wish there wasn’t an extra charge for vegan cakes, but we will be back either way because it was a great ordering experience as well.“
“Modern and chic coffee shop with very nice wall drawings. The Habibi Latte was a little too sweet for me even with asking for less sweet. The pistachio latte has a very nice pistachio taste to it. The Shaghf tart was super yummy. It was not too sweet. The crust gives it this nice crunch and texture with the filling. Great customer service.“
“Simple, but fun. Light atmosphere. Not your traditional “Troy” vibe. Love it! Sorry it took me so long to come.I’m stuck on the salmon croissant, and I have yet to have even an even average cup of coffee. If you’re into Matcha, you will thank me later!“
“Clean brightly lit. Product presentation is awesome. Great variety. When you walk in you start salivating. The cakes I purchased were moist and the frosting is sweet and light. Staff makes you feel welcome. I'm definitely returning and spreading the word.“
“I’ve personally been here multiple times, and every time they have great service and great food and for the most part, it is all healthy based on your own preference and delicious. If I could come here every day, I would this is by far my favorite small restaurant for açaí bowls!Vegetarian options: There is no meat at this store.“
“Super friendly staff they we’re able to help me make a decision with having so many delicious varieties to choose from so I got the gluten free chocolate chip cookie. I even tried their ice cream and their gluten free brownies. wow so delicious also.. Id give 10 stars if I could.. totally recommend ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️???“
“The Dovetail is a great coffee shop. The owner is a sweetheart, and makes fabulous drinks and food, at reasonable prices. There is plenty of seating, and the place is full of great art to take in, including all of the beautiful wall murals.They have plenty of non-dairy milk options, and tea options. There are a lot of creative drink specials, and the owner does a great job explaining the menu.Vegetarian options: Lots of non-dairy milk options, and vegetarian menu itemsDietary restrictions: Non-dairy milk options, some gf options as wellParking: Large lot with plenty of close parking“
“Coffee is amazing. However, I’m dinging one star on service only because it’s Christmas Eve day, and I’m a Jew who wished a Merry Christmas, and got replied back with a Happy Holidays...on Christmas.You can say Merry Christmas, on Christmas. Nobody gonna cancel you. Merry Christmas ? ? ??“
“Ferndale Project is a very unique, cool space that feels inviting and homey. We tried several NEIPAs and sours and thought they were some of the best we've ever had. The bartenders were friendly and gave great beer recommendations based on our preferences.“
“It's an amazing quiet, and upscale experience. If you need a low key vibe, you can order a glass of wine and a really good appetizer, and pick a good book sit by the fireplace, or have a nice date with conversation. This is the best spot for intellectuals in MHO.“
“My cousin is a regular here and this was my first time here. This is a fantastic little shop. Their menu is extensive but filled with great things. They also operate as a snack and liquor shop with specialty items. The food I had was well made and the service is friendly. You can really see that the locals love this place and come here often. It's a place that is definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.“
“Without exaggeration, I can say that this is by far the best coffee I've had in America.They(boldly and unashamedly) serve incredible alternative processed coffees, and if you're into coffee, you are in for a tasty that very few places in the world can offer. Their anaerobic process rivals some of the best competition coffee I've tried in Momos (kor)/Watchouse(uk)/stow (slo) for much lower price.If you come, you should ask them to make you an espresso flight: two espressos and a long filter espresso - an owners own invention i found similar in taste profile to tim wendleboes "nomaricano".“
“Parking here sucks but the coffee and pastries are very good. There are tons of vegan options for drinks and a good amount for food. There's a small sitting area in the back, and the line can end up filling the seating area. If you want to sit and chill, I'd go to another red hook location. All of the other ones have more seating. This one, though, has the best vibes tbh. Make sure you get whatever food you order warmed up it makes it 10 times better.Dietary restrictions: They have all the vegan milk options and vegan quick bites“
“Great people, staff, and overall experience. Food is great and consistent. Coffee is great. Queer atmosphere that keeps me coming back.Dietary restrictions: Vegan friendlyParking: There is parking behind the buildingWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp and parking, although space is small and limited.“
“We love Mia's! We go every week. We have brought all of our friends and family to Mia's. They all ask to meet us there now and many have ordered desserts and food of their own. My favorite experience recently was my daughter's frozen birthday cake. She loved it so much. She kept going over to look at it during her birthday party! She was so happy. All of our guests loved it. Most cakes that are pretty on the outside taste awful inside but everyone told us they couldn't believe how delicious it was!“
“Great atmosphere and prices. Their Cafe Miel (honey latte) was a spot-on dupe for Madcap's, and not too sweet which I appreciate! Pastries were awesome too. The chocolate croissant was so good and didn't shatter into a million crumbs like most croissants, so it's safe to eat in the car, lol.“
