“I recently visited Familias Saludables and it was a truly delightful experience. The pomegranate ice tea and banana shake with protein were not only delicious but also refreshing. Maria, the owner, was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a healthy treat. I wish them continued success and can’t wait to visit again!“

“The shakes and teas are the best downriver!!!“

“Visited here because it was open late. Got myself a latte with oat milk, which was extremely good, but notice that they also sold Acai Bowls. I decided to order one. Acai bowls are known to be a little expensive, but this one wasn't too bad. Not only that, but this was probably the best and freshest Acai Bowls that I've ever ordered from anywhere. Not to mention the portion size that coincided with the price. I will definitely be coming back to try all the different kinds that they have.“

“Was traveling for a conference and someone recommended this place and I’m so glad I stopped in. Short walk from many nearby hotels. The food is absolutely beautiful and there were pastries and desserts I’d never seen or heard of and I’ve been to a TON of French bakeries. This place takes it to the next level. I even had to make another transaction after I tried a piece of the mozzarella and Zatar bread loaf because it was that good. I’m not usually that into bakery style breads but this was insanely soft and the flavor was like nothing I’ve tasted before. Wish we lived closer because we’d be back everyday!“

“Haven’t had a miss on the subscription yet. Quick shipping, great roasts, and Kristi in customer service got me fixed up when I got mixed up on my subscription settings. 10/10“

“Beautiful setting, very clean and pretty store with quality products and a great coffee and soup bar.“

“This place is a complete culinary delight. I love the atmosphere, the sharable menu options and selection, and the amazing staff. If you want a truly unforgettable experience, try the chef’s table! Five stars every single time we’ve gone!“

“Love, love, love! Homemade, specialty, and fresh, the trifecta of comfort foods! Thank you for crepe too! So delicious! Everything is delicious! Make a meal of the chicken, bacon ranch pierogi, or the Mac and cheese for a side. Grab soup and a sweet crepe to finish it off! You can’t go wrong!“

“It was my first time in downtown detroit and I came across this food truck. The food was really good, and I tried their matcha. Truly one of the best food truck experiences I have ever had! I was helped by Ibrahim, who took his time with me and helped me understand exactly what I was looking to have.“

“I love walking here, getting a consistently good latte or espresso, and sitting outside. Quieter neighborhood to enjoy reading, but busy enough spot to run into folks. Usually on my list of coffee recommendations for locals or out-of-towners!“

“This place is beautiful! We had our daughter’s 4th birthday here and everything was great! The staff was a 10/10! There was tons of stuff to do for kids of all ages. Even the adults indulged in the fun! I can’t wait to host another party with them!“

“Such a standout little bakery. Boutique-style with everything made so fresh you can taste the quality in every bite. Beautifully crafted, delicious, and made with ingredients that are clearly top-tier — you can see and taste the difference. Nutritious options, amazing flavours, and so much care put into every detail. So fortunate to have this local spot in LaSalle. I always look forward to meeting friends there for coffee and a little snack inside or outside in their welcoming patio“

“The Christmas Bundle and Yule log were fantastic! We were able to enjoy some items at home and had enough to bring to every family gathering. Our families loved everything! Thank you so much!“

“This place has it all – great food, cozy atmosphere, and super friendly staff! The menu has some awesome halal options, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. I had the classic burger, and it was just perfect. Can’t wait to come back with family!“

“We really enjoyed our brunch. The staff was great and the sweetest people. I loved the Jammie eggs and the preserves.“

“First time here! When you hear about little bars or restaurants off the beaten path that have great food, Franks Cafe is the place. We squeezed in to the last two available seats at the bar today (Fish fry Friday) and ordered the walleye and the perch. The wait for it was a little long but holy moly, well worth the wait! The owner was in constant motion at the fryers working his butt off as were the wait staff and bartenders too. I’ve had fish all over the downriver area and this place was the best! I’m from Irish Hills where they have good fish too, but I’m telling you, try the fish at Franks! Outstanding!“

“I have a new favorite cafe! Today was my first visit to Moondog Cafe on Linwood in Detroit. I loved everything about it - the ambiance, the people, the food, the decor. The staff I met seemed like very friendly, inviting, and interesting people. I had a black cherry soda with cane sugar that hit the spot and a savory curry pastry that was absolutely incredible. I definitely plan to be back; I especially want to come back some time when a show or musical event is scheduled, as the stage and set-up looked like it will be ideal for intimate musical performances.“

“I recommend The Hulk smoothie extra banana, Chica Fresa but don’t limit yourself everything is delicious. Such a supportive space for creativity and community ❤️🔥“

“The fact that a COVID-19 card was needed upon entry, along with the fact that it wasn't advertised on the door, were the lowlights. I don't anticipate returning until the policy is changed. My recommendation is to obtain an updated COVID-19 card, and have it on your phone or in your pocket/purse/wallet before you visit. it will save the trouble of being turned away.“

“Best place to go to stay on track with your nutrition! If you don’t have time to wait call ahead and your TEA or SHAKE will be ready for pickup! 10/10 recommend!“

“If you’re looking for a peaceful escape tucked away among the palm trees, Coco Shack is a must-visit. We were so pleased to stumble upon this hidden gem on Cauayan Beach, and it certainly didn't disappoint. ​The first thing you notice is the striking industrial-rustic aesthetic. It strikes a perfect balance between modern design and laid-back beach vibes. While they currently close at 8:00 PM, it’s easy to imagine this becoming the ultimate weekend beach bar—it’s just begging for some twinkling fairy lights, bean bags and a chilled Ibiza sunset playlist! ​The menu focuses on simple easy food and beverages. While they don’t serve alcohol themselves, they offer a corkage fee option, which is a great touch for those who want to bring their own drinks for a sunset toast. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. ​The biggest win for us? It’s pet-friendly! Having a massive beach right out front makes it the perfect spot for long dog walks followed by a relaxed sit-down. We 100% recommend Coco Shack for anyone looking for a chilled afternoon. We will definitely be back with friends for some chilled afternoons 🌊🧉☀️“

“Amazing food and drink would recommend“

“First I'd like to express how delighted I am with this cafe's staff who are always cheerful and welcoming. Their food is extremely fresh, and I am amazed at the wide selection of choices they offer in their bright, and very clean cafe. Try their soups, usually 3 or 4 choices that change each day. I like to get their lamb shawermas too, and really, their mediterrabean offerings are tasty! They also do a bunch of yummy sandwiches made right on the spot to order. I tend to try their daily specials, as those are usually being prepared and cooked freshly just moments before lunchtime. You might find a mac n cheese one day, a lasagne the next. Today I'm enjoying their spiced chicken. You can clearly see all of the ingredients offered, and if you arrive early in the day, they do a breakfast selection to keep you going. As their clean, bright, cozy space is take-out only, the outdoor deck is only 20 feet away, a nice place to eat on non-Winter days. There is a padded bench just inside nearby in a pinch. They're a family business, so please do come and satisfy your hunger.“

“What a lovely surprise it was to pop in for a coffee date with a longtime friend only to realize that we chose a café inside a flower boutique on Valentine's Day, of all days. This particular flower shop is a gorgeous and thoughtfully curated space, welcoming and lush. We sat together on a plush pink loveseat, talking and observing while flowers, chocolates, balloons, and teddy bears flew off the shelves in the most orderly, peaceful fashion.

I ordered the Biscoff shaken espresso (hot) and couldn't have been happier with my choice.

The manager sought out my friend and me individually to comment that we chose the busiest day of the year to stop by and thank us for staying. We assured her that it was actually a heartwarming experience.

If you haven't been here yet, what are you waiting for???“

“best service and best drinks aswell as the deserts, was very suprised with this business especially with the man at the front counter, i had to specifically ask for his personal name so i write this review, he made my shake and gave me it with a smile, 10/10 business and i will come next time for sure! ( MOE JT ) best one“

“Amazing Staff and great products“

“Kresge Court is a great place to relax, have a conversation with friends, or get some work done on your laptop. There's a small selection of food and drinks available for purchase nearby, but most folks come here for the atmosphere and the WiFi“

“Amazing bagels and cream cheese, but my morning was basically ruined when I saw that the goat cheese and honey cream cheese is no longer on DoorDash 😭 Yes, it’s THAT good. My whole office loves it. Please bring it back!“

“Best nutrition hub hands down. Provides the best drinks and service is fast and love love the staff every single one of them.“

“Fantastic food, wonderful atmosphere“

“Awesome!🤩 place is great!“

“This is a great addition to Wyandotte! The bagels were good and the sandwiches were solid. The bacon is not premium, but does the job, and the eggs are pretty good despite their appearance (square cut from a sheet pan). The coffee is great! If you’re dining in, you’ll get a glass and real plates, so order to-go if you’re planning on taking your coffee with you. You could tell they had a bigger budget for the one in Corktown for the interior, but the vibes here are still good and on the way to really knocking out of the park.“

“Love this place great drinks friendly staff“

“Best spot in Detroit! Love the ambiance.“

“This place is amazing. Turkish coffee is delicious and my favorite. I enjoy my regular coffee with heavy whipping cream, maple syrup and cinnamon. However, I took a sip of the Turkish coffee just as it was prepared and was delicious and full of flavor. Extra hot (my request), plain with a layer of smooth syrup coffee grounds on the bottom. Yes, sounds odd, but don't judge until you try it. True coffee lovers will appreciate the smooth taste. The service was wonderful and the staff was willing to answer any questions. Also, any of the wonderful desserts will compliment your coffee. This is my number one coffee shop!! ❤️“

“I love this place and it smells so good!“

“The MOCAD Café is a relaxing and very chill café located directly inside the Museum of Contemporary Art. As expected, the space is designed thoughtfully and exudes relaxation. It has an urban-industrial feel with a touch of modernism. The big garage windows allow for plenty of natural light - when it's warm, they're open to allow a nice breeze. There are many tables with chairs, creating a perfect atmosphere for small group gatherings or a quiet work sesh'.Not only do they sell coffee, tea, and baked goods sourced locally, but there's also a fully stocked bar with a rotating seasonal menu. Many of the cocktails are bright and refreshing, having been curated by the bartenders. Pricing is fair, as well. The staff are always friendly and kind, and the service has been nothing short of splendid.You don't need to visit the museum to visit the café, as it's located directly to the right of you as you enter the museum. Stop in for a drink or treat, and enjoy the museum if you have time.“

“The restaurant has a nice atmosphere but the food could have been hot. The potatoes were unseasoned but the omelet was excellent.“

“beautiful inside , delicious foods and great drink offerings“

“First time at Sams coffee the food was beautiful. We had the streaky bacon brioche with scrambled eggs, cheddar and fresh chives, every mouth full was so tasty the bacon was crispy, not greasy it was light it actually reminded me of bacon frazzle crisps it was that light. The scrambled eggs were so light and fluffy perfectly paired with the toasted brioche bun. To drink I had a chemex coffee using a Kenyon blend it was fruity and full of flavor. Then to finish a flat white which was beautiful. I highly recommended Sams Coffee we will be back very soon“

“I love going to the DIA!! It is so clean and beautiful museum to visit! We went as a family and even my son loved going to the DIA!“

“The summer lychee boba tea was delicious! Such a cute shop!“

“A fabulous coffee house; pleasant decor, friendly personnel and the most creative little foodie delights. We were visiting from the UK and had been told to try..,.so glad we did! The cheese & chive sconewich was fab as was the lemon & lavender cake. Merchandising, produce and plants also for sale. Loved our visit.“

“WOW!! This cafe is my new favorite place to go. The drinks are AMAZING as well as the food. While those are 10/10, the hospitality is what makes me want to come back over and over!! Madeline was so passionate and knowledgeable about everything and made us so excited to be there. Also there is a nice indoor and outdoor space to enjoy your coffee!“

“I want to shout out this location. Everyone that works here is so kind and helpful, so cherry and positive. I visited this location today (2/25/26) and want to give a shout out to Chloe (hope I spelled that correctly). Thank you for being so kind and having a smile on your face this morning. I had no idea what I wanted- she asked me what I liked and made it for me. Absolutely delicious! Thank you again!“

“Very friendly and excellent tea and cold brew coffee“

“Just left from getting a Tubbys and some treats. I went inside and the two young gentleman working provided great customer service to me. They made sure I got everything I needed and was satisfied. My food was also made quickly and is tasty.“

“The Christmas Bundle and Yule log were fantastic! We were able to enjoy some items at home and had enough to bring to every family gathering. Our families loved everything! Thank you so much!“
