12 Best Coffee Shops in Ypsilanti

“I am a coffee enthusiast, who is getting a bit more into snob territory, and I have Hyperion to blame. I found Hyperion years ago by chance, and said “This is the best coffee I’ve ever had. I never even knew coffee could taste THIS good!” Now I’ve gone and bought coffee from several places, beans and drinks too. As I write this, I actually have 6 bags of various different coffee beans from places, each unique vendors… except for the two I got from Hyperion. I’ve yet to find ANYONE who has beaten them. Some have come close, some may have them beat in other ways. But ultimately, Hyperion makes THE best coffee I have ever had. I have tried to find someone who can best them and have not found them. I cannot recommend Hyperion enough. They ignited a passion for me, and continue to provide the utmost excellence in coffee. Oh, and they finally sold the banana guava beans! I’m SO excited to see how they turn out at home!“

“My favorite shop in Ypsi! The staff is always so friendly, warm and welcoming, the coffee is exceptional. Whether you’re looking to meet up with some friends, or set up and work for a couple of hours“

“Really cute and stylish cafe. The owner is very sweet and takes pride in what she does. I've had the coffee, the smoothies, and some of the food, and it's all amazing. The music is great, and there is usually locally sourced artwork on the walls that changes frequently. I would love to see this cafe graduate to a bigger storefront someday so that they could display more local art. I've been here a handful of times since they opened very recently, and I look forward to coming back many more times. The smoothies are truly unbeatable! I'm excited to see what the owner does with the space as they settle in more.“

“A beautiful accident finding this place. Stellar music awesome crowd and excellent service. I will definitely be back!“

“Love this little gem. Visiting town from Utah...want one in Utah now.“

“it's amazing, the pistachio latte is delicious. my only complaint is the serving size. 9$ is a lot for 4 sips.“

“Was craving some plaintain, so I stopped by to get some grilled chicken, jollof & fried plaintain and oh my goodness it’s delicious!! Everything hit the spot, and the chicken was so flavorful & juicy. The portion sizes are great too (there’s a whole other piece of chicken & more rice not pictured)! And lastly, the woman that brought me the food was so kind ☺️ definitely coming back for more ?“

“First of all the food and drinks are always amazing. I have yet to try something that I didn’t like. Secondly, the staff is always so kind and it’s such a large and welcoming space that you can sit and have a conversation with a friend or get some work done and not feel like you have to rush out to make room for others. It’s in a cute area too so you can walk to other small local shops and the library fairly conveniently. I love Bridge it’s exactly what I look for in a cafe.

“Absolutely amazing beverages! I either order the lemongrass refresher if I want to cool down or a shot of espresso to wake up. The refresher is phenomenal! I always want to try something new, but i am addicted to this one. The baristas are always pleasant and prompt with our drink orders. They always keep the cafe clean. I love to sneak down to this floor when I'm working. Phenomenal job!“
