“Would've given all stars, but they're kind of slow, they do actually take the time to pay attention to every single order and make it properly. Would recommend ordering ahead of time. Other than that, our drinks were perfect, and the young man at the register was super polite. I wish I could remember his name.“
“Great place for South Indian food. Small and cozy. We were greeted with warmth and hospitality. Tried weekend veg combo, food was delicious. Staff were welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was perfect. We will definitely be returning for more!“
“Oh my lord, all of the options looked scrumptious. We ordered a pistachio and chocolate croissant, Blackberry/Blueberry croissant, an Almond croissant, Smoked Salmon sandwich, Chicken sandwich and a loaf of Sourdough bread. Everything was excellent and very fresh. It's pricey but worth the splurge occasionally.“
“Cafe Amor has delicious coffee, sandwiches and traditional Mexican treats. The team is very kind and always provides excellent service!It’s a magical place where you can relax, view local art, attend events and even meet new friends!!100% recommend!“
“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.“
“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.“
“Great coffee shop with a creative array of specialty lattes, including some fun seasonal flavors. I really enjoyed the honey cinnamon latte, though it was on the sweeter end. It would have been much better with half as much sweetness. I’d certainly return for the coffee.Food options leave something to be desired. I tried the only vegan option, an orange pound cake, and found it flavorless and dry.Vegetarian options: Orange pound cake is the only vegan food option. They do offer plant milks“
“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.“
“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!“

“We just had the best service here! And great coffee, tea, and treats! We had went on a walk and decided to treat ourselves to a coffee. After our order was ready and we went pay we found that I lost my license and id along our walk. OYE! They were so kind and patient with us with our frantic responses. They had us take our order anyway and said that they 'trust us'. Luckily, we found my id and card and went back and paid. They were still super nice when I went back in. We will be back and tell everyone else they should go as well!! You just don't have that small town feel anywhere else around here.“
“I Needed a midday pick me up while in the area and located this gem. I had a caramel macchiato which did the job. The coffee tasted fresh and of great quality. They have a variety of different coffees and choices, that I was initially overwhelmed. I will be back to try something new.“
“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.“
“Fantastic coffee at no nonsense prices!! They looked and tasted like we were at a sidewalk cafe in Italy!! The sandwich was big enough for hubby and I to share so that we were each able to get a small treat!!! a perfect lunch!! Very quaint and friendly atmosphere!!“
“My husband and I tried Papelon Arepa for the first time today and it's going to be hard to stop ourselves from eating here multiple times a week. The gentleman assisting us was so kind and throughly explained the menu options to us, and made great recommendations. The food, omg, the food is out of this world delicious. Everything we tried was superb. This is my new favorite spot in all of Macomb County. Go give them a try, you will not regret it!“
“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!“
“Staff was personable and helped create a drink that fit my preferences! Highly recommend the orange cardamom latte with some chocolate. Syrup made in house, which is a plus. The vibe was cozy and suitable for somewhere to chill solo or chat with friends over a cup of joe or tea. Free designated parking lot was clutch.“
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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“Love the bohemian unpretentious vibe of this independent coffee house. The local artists displayed here from the wall murals to the galleries of artwork are impressive and add to the cozy atmosphere. Great place to chat or get some work done.“
“HIGHLY recommend stopping by. I happened upon it (visiting Detroit) on a rainy night, was pleasantly surprised by the hours, offerings, atmosphere, and the lovely staff. I returned maybe 4 more times over my trip, staff was always lovely. Highly recommend the iced Irish coffees and their drip coffee offerings were always stellar. The little cookies I got were phenomenal. I met the owner the last day and he was very jovial and enthusiastic, talked about the music and how they shift the vibes for Detroit's Opening Day. Thanks y'all!“
“We’ve gotten Dooped Donuts twice downtown and once at the Ferndale Project and they are are always amazing! We decided to order two dozen for our baby shower and they did not disappoint. They were a huge hit and nobody could believe they’re vegan. They’re THE best! Our favorite is the cinnamon swirl!“
“Love this place. Love that they have vegan options for myself. I love the coffee, food and atmosphere. It’s busy when we go for lunch but I love seeing a little unique place like this bustling in Downtown Windsor.The service is great and the staff are so nice. I cannot understand anything under 5 star rating for this place. Keep on doing you Cafe March 21.“
“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.“
“This place is a warm, cozy, refreshing, breath of fresh air. A space where complete strangers are immediately connected by a cup of impeccable coffee or sweet treat. The staff interaction between every customer is genuine, and joyful. A must go to if in Windsor.“
“Really cool place. The staff were very courteous. They have whole bean coffee and some merch. The cheesecake desserts, cookies, and muffins are great. I had the eggnog cheesecake, which was amazing. My wife had a chocolate cookie that they warmed up.“
“This is a beautiful coffee shop in St. Clair Shores. They have ample sitting with traditional tables and chairs, but also booths, counches, and louge chairs. They also have outdoor seating. For a Tuesday afternoon they seemed busy. You could see friends were gathered, people working on their laptops, and young families dining in. We liked the food, but for what you paid for what you got was below par for us. We had two sandwhiches, a soup, and a smoothie for $40 not including tip. We did carry out and still was very hungry afterwards. I also didn't like how they refused to turn one of the sandwiches into a salad. Most places do that, but not here. They do have Udis gluten free bread as an option, but I don't like that brand. FYI Canyon Bakehouse gluten free bread is way better. I was definitely left hunger, but my husband too. His sandwich was so small. We couldn't believe it. The service was okay, but they made us wait a lotng time. A women greated us after she rang up the women in front of us and then ignored us for about 20 minutes. She might of been putting orders together, but didn't say one word to us. Another woman came from the kitchen and walked passed us to not a word as we awkwardly waited. Finally a young guy from the kitchen came out to serve us and take our order. He was nice. But since we were the only people in line, I can't understand why it took so long.“
“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".“
“Had a new year's day girls date with my family and everything was great. Our server (I wish I could remember her name) was top notch. We came for breakfast but it turns out that the chicken strips my granddaughter ordered and didn't eat were the star of the show! I would definitely take the drive and come back.“
“If you are looking for a bakery in downtown Detroit the Astoria is a gem. The products are good and they offer a little bit of everything (e.g., cookies, pastries, cakes, etc.) I don't remember seeing pies but they have them too. And to top it off the coffee was $1. Wow, when was the last time you paid $1 for a coffee.“
“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 little shop downtown. Stopped in by chance on a Saturday morning and grabbed a breakfast sandwich. It was fantastic! Menu looks great, and quality of food is top notch. I will definitely make a point to return and try more sandwiches next time we're in Detroit!“
“This is the only Starbucks I go to where they always make the drinks correctly and they always engage in a full conversation with me while they make my coffee. I had an extra good time today where the batista said she'd remake my drink if I didn't find it sweet enough after I asked how sweet the drink was. She was very personable and I can tell this location trains their employees well!“
“Wonderful Coffee! The hand made syrups were probably the best I ever had. I tried two lattes, one with vanilla lavender and the other with honey cinnamon and they were great! I recommend both of them with oatmilk. The owner was super friendly with my party and I and we had a very nice conversation with her while she made our lattes. Down Under is only FOUR minutes away from the TCF, walking. There is NO reason to ever get Starbucks again while I am in Detroit for Youmacon. A definite must for all the con goers to give them a try!“
“I regularly visit this cafe for my morning coffee and have always had a great experience with my drinks, friendly workers and the other regulars.This morning there was a rude customer that woke up and chose to be hateful (Islamophobic) towards me and my friends while we were waiting in line to order. Thank you to the worker that refused to give service to the entitled customer and being patient while they threw a tantrum and also to the lovely customer that stood up for us.I'm from Windsor and already know that one person's actionsdoes not represent the majority here and I'm thankful that despite everything happening nowadays, there are still kind people around.To the customer that was spewing hate, I think a walk by the riverside might help you vent your anger towards the world or therapy :)Will definitely continue coming here.“
“I happened upon this place on accident but my experience was great i got a French vanilla latte that was really good but I think it was missing the hazelnut which makes it a French vanilla latte and the morning side frappe could have been blended smoother but the person I got it for enjoyed it. The bacon and cheese croissant was ok it had something spicy on it and I wish I would’ve known because I don’t eat spicy food however that could have been my fault for not asking but everything was great and the service was even better and the cafe is beautiful“
“One of my favorite coffee spots in the D! A bit unique in that you can have your coffee beverage made of any of the many types of beans and roasts they have available thanks to their Javabot that uses a system of tubes connecting their various types of beans to the barista station. Kind of fits with the whole factory vibe They also have the types of coffee broken up into Full bodied (dark roasts), balanced (medium roast), and mild roasts in case you need some guidance as to what to choose. Want your latte made with Jamaica Blue Mountain beans? No problem! I usually take my coffee black as a pour over, aeropress or drip so I do the "brew by the cup" option which I think they do as an Americano but don't quote me on that. It is pretty unique. You can of course also by whole beans as well which I usually do. They are located in the lobby of First National building at Campus Martius so you can easily do some site seeing after grabbing your cuppa Joe. Parking in the area is usually street parking a few blocks away or the parking structures on Congress.“
“Can’t say enough great things about this place!! Best coffee ever. Great food. Workers are so kind and happy unlike every other food industry worker these days. Coffee is consistently great every time! My fiance and I look forward to this every weekend!“
“One of the few great places to grab a pint downtown. From the moment you step in you can tell its meant for beer lovers. A huge selection of delicious beers, labeled, explained, and categorized perfectly. Every holiday they always have a great holiday themed brew that I always enjoy. The prices are great for the quality you get from these local brews. They even have a small of assortment of snacks and candy if you need a snack, and also allow food to be ordered. The brewery's commitment to quality is evident in each meticulously crafted beer. The diverse range of styles offered something for every palate. The knowledgeable staff are happy to shared insights and enhance the overall enjoyment of the tasting experience. The ambiance, coupled with the friendly community vibe, made it a perfect spot to unwind and savor exceptional brews. Whether you're a seasoned beer connoisseur or a casual enthusiast, this craft brewery offers a tasteful journey i always enjoy. I look forward to my next visit to explore more of their inventive creations.“
“This place has 3 ways it serves the neighborhood: There is a cafe with drinks and to-go style food that is well-made and fairly priced. It has a laundry mat. And there is a nice sized upstairs space for community needs and fun stuff like ballroom dancing. People behind the counter have always been nice. The space is clean and well-lit. Free street parking is on Mack and Beals. It is a comfortable place to visit.“
“I stop at this location 1-2 times/week. Every person that has been at the window (drive-through) has been polite and smiley. The service is quick, which is needed in the mornings on my way to work! The drinks are always made well, which is not always the case in my experience at other Biggby’s.“
“My husband and I had chicken parmesan panini and it was melt in your mouth delicious! The desserts were heavenly, Amalfi coast good. We'll definitely be back to try everything on the menu and in the dessert counter. We were able to have a wonderful, relaxed dinner with friends in a warm, welcoming, Italian atmosphere. Bravi Gina and family!“
“They have THE nicest customer service here. I needed a cake kind of last minute and they were so helpful and kind and provided a BEAUTIFUL and delicious cake for me. They also have a wonderful gluten free selection. We have some with gluten intolerances in the family, and they have a good amount of gluten free (GF) treats you normally don't see like GF cheesecake cups, GF cookies, GF "cosmic brownies". Their GF cakes are like no other. Usually they can be dry, but I could not tell the difference between that and a regular cake. Amazing! Will always support this wonderful, friendly, and delicious bakery.Dietary restrictions: Great GF options“
“Found a delicious vanilla latte; plus the dirty chai was super strong and had a unique spiced flavor. The chocolate chip cookie was excellent, soft but with crispy edges, just like I like it, and the yummy chocolate bites mmm so sweet. The eggy breakfast sandwich was perfect on a fluffy savory biscuit. It had an interesting cream cheese spread mixed in making the eggs nice and creamy and the pickle slices made for a nice surprise. I do wish we got a bit more of the side salad because I enjoy my greens! The neighborhood doesn't seem like the safest, but it was still great to stop by this chill spot by chance during our visit to Detroit!“

“LOVED HOW COZY THE PLACE WAS, DIDNT FEEL LIKE I WAS GOING IN A REGULAR COFFEE SHOP , BUT LIKE I WAS ENTERING A WARM HOUSE. Staff was very friendly and welcoming, loved the fire place area?. Ordered herbal tea, a latte and 2 bananas and the total for all these was under $10 so surprisingly cheap as well! Definitely this is where Im getting my coffee when I’m in the area!“
“We recently spent a night at The Siren. The hotel was very clean, comfortable and quiet. Our breakfast at the Ash Bar was amazing. The best part, however, was the staff. From the valet, the concierge, the restaurant staff and the housekeeping we received nothing but smiles and friendliness with excellent service. We give them 5 out of 5 stars and hope to stay again soon.“
“My friends and I stopped in for a quick coffee and baked good before setting off for the day. The coffee was brewed fresh and the shopping fun began in the store picking up a few Michigan goods and smoked salts. This coffee shop has a little bit of everything from the beans to spices. Stop by and enjoy the smells!“
“Came here with my husband and 4 year old. Very welcoming, friendly staff. Decently-sized, manageable menu, unique variety of smoothies and Italian sodas and coffee. Food came quickly and was delicious (bacon egg and cheese panini, crustless broccoli and cheese quiche, blueberry muffin and Monte Cristo). I came back twice in one day. Considered a third but exercised some self-control. But I will definitely be back.“
“What a great little coffee shop! You don’t have to bank at Capital One to go there. If you use your Capital One card to pay, it’s half-off. I got a ginger cinnamon breve (just ask and they can switch up the latte), and it was excellent. I don’t usually like flavored coffees but this one hit the spot on a chilly day. Both staff members were friendly and welcoming. I commented that there should have been more people, but it was close to lunchtime and nice not to wait in a long line. I didn’t try any of the sweet treats in the case, but they looked delicious and they had a ginormous cinnamon bun.“
“Phenomenal little shop! Staggering selection of tea, teaware, and accessories. Owner was wonderfully helpful and passionate about tea. Absolutely will come again and would recommend this shop to anyone who is interested in tea, or would like to learn more and get some delicious tea!“
