“Upon arriving after a long bike ride, I was pleasantly surprised by the warmth and friendliness of the staff. Emma, my server, went above and beyond to craft a delightful London Fog drink paired with lemon cake. The combination of flavors was simply divine. I cannot wait to return for another beverage and experience.“
“First time dining here … it was delicious! We had the goat dish & chicken dish both served with plantains, coconut or spiced rice, beans & corn/cucumbers salad and spinach side dish, both entrees were tender, seasoned with earthy spices … excellent! Their hibiscus tea and spiced coffee were delicious too. We enjoyed the avocado pudding and passion fruit desserts. Our server was knowledgeable and personable. He made great suggestions. We will be back soon!“
“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!“
“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.“
“Okay okay.. so we just came back from our trip to Italy and were searching for good gelato back in Detroit.. and this place delivers! The gelato is legit. The pistachio flavor is so good. Affagato with vanilla gelato was a hit. We are coming back for sure!“
“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!!“
“In love with this place! Their coffees are to die for! The coffee/drinks portion served is huge which could easily accommodate 2 people. I tried their hot latte which was good and also their milk cake which was too good. Atmosphere is pretty cozy too. I’ve heard it gets busy at times but I’ve been during the day on a weekday so it wasn’t busy. All in all highly recommended.“
“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.“
“I don't know which beautiful employee is writing encouraging messages on the coffee cup sleeves, but after stopping by last week for a coffee and having one of the hardest day, I glanced down at my cup to see "you grow through what you go through" handwritten on my coffee sleeve. It legit made my entire day so much better and I was grateful for humans like the one who work at Awake Cafe. :)“
“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!!“
“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“

“This place is a Sunday afternoon vibe. Chill relax place to talk with friends and be blown away with every drink on their menu. I'm a sucker for hidden away coffee shops to begin with, but this one deserves all the stars I can give. Very unique, very Detroit vibes. I love it.Edit 2024: during the weekday, it's a quiet and chill place to work. There's great wifi too. Their playlist slaps, so be warned, the vibe is real.Dietary restrictions: A huge selection of alt milks!“
“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 “
“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.“
“Loved my 60th Birthday cake!!! Not only was it delicious! The final cake looked exactly like the photo! The bakers were so accommodating and communicated with me every step of the way! Thank you #forthrloveofsugar team! I will definitely be back! Life is sweet!!❤️“
“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!“
“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 ? ? ??“
“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!“
“I love this coffee shop so much! It's so convenient I can walk to it and it's open late during the week for when I need to work on side projects after my 9-5. The vibe is very cool and the music is just the right volume. There's also options to sit up front by the windows if you want more light, or you can sit in the back for a more cozy feel. I love their coffee and rotating specials. The Columbia Espresso is my favorite and I usually get a bag for home too when I'm here. The Guatemala blend is also very good!“
“My recent visit to palm bites located inside the eastern flavours was a delightful culinary journey, made even more memorable by the outstanding service provided by Lakshmi Priya .We had waffles which was Crisp on the outside, yet delightfully fluffy on the inside, they were the epitome of waffle perfection. Each bite was a symphony of flavors and textures, leaving me craving more with every mouthful.And then there was the French vanilla topping. Smooth, creamy, and infused with the intoxicating aroma of vanilla, it was the perfect accompaniment to the already delectable waffles. Together, they created a flavor combination that was nothing short of heavenly.But what truly stood out during my visit was the exceptional service provided by lakshmi. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary.She deserves a pretty good hike for sure.“
“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.“
“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.“
“Summertown Fresh has a variety healthy food options in Corktown - the food is freshly prepared right in front of you. They made a juice for me and literally pureed/blended the veggies as I waited. The staff is friendly, there is street parking in front, and they have a great light-filled space that is great for hanging out, having a meeting, or getting some work done on the laptop (free wifi). They also cater sandwiches and other foods for local businesses.“
“Tucked away in an old warehouse building, this coffee spot exudes a unique charm despite its concise menu. While you won't find plush chairs to sink into, the cozy ambiance and minimalist décor create an inviting atmosphere. The menu may be small, but what it lacks in variety, it makes up for in quality. Each brew is expertly crafted, ensuring a memorable coffee experience. Admittedly, the prices lean towards the higher end, but the attention to detail and flavor justify the cost. So, if you're after a no-frills coffee joint with a focus on quality over quantity, this place is worth a visit.“
“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“
“what the actual F this place has an absolutely killer egg sandwich that I cannot stop thinking about. I do not live in Detroit I was just there for a pit stop and now I am waking up at my home that is far from Detroit and wishing I could have this egg sandwich. The flavors go pow.“
“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!“
“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!“
“Cute Greek French fusion bakery, nice location in the middle of Greektown. Staff was friendly and welcoming, and the pastries all looked amazing. Great coffee! Got a tiramisu which tasted excellent and was a generous portion. Rolled baklava was crisp and with a delicate sweetness! Will be back, lots more to try!“
“Campus Bistro is easily the best option for breakfast in Midtown. Like it isn't close. Every other spot (except for possibly Olympic Cafe) is completely overpriced or doesn't offer a breakfast option.The draw of Campus Bistro is that it's a great value, especially if you're a Wayne State Student. Besides a couple of spots in Mexicantown, you will not find a more affordable breakfast than this. Also, your portions are huge, so a meal here can take you through to dinner. I had the steak and eggs and would guess that the steak I was given was all of10 oz.The service is awesome, and each time I've gone the waiter has been incredibly attentive. I used to go here when I was in Law School, and now that it's under new management, I think it's a much better restaurant. Highly, highly recommended“
“Been looking for a third place to just chill & work since I work hybrid and this place is perfect! Calm & chill during the day with free wifi, great beer and retro games for when I want to take a break. They also have comedy shows & events at night. Great vibe all around“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“Friendly staff and one of the few coffee places near the Henry Ford main campus. Prefer a simple cup of black coffee when the coffee is quality. Usually request extra coffee when doing a pour over. Usually I avoid the specialty flavored coffees: cherry, vanilla, or hazelnut. I can do a light or dark roast. Flavored coffee is not my cup of tea, as the mixed analogy goes.“
“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!“
“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!“
“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.“
“Had a great quick sandwich and look forward to trying out there coffee and pressed juice (bottled). The sandwich had turkey and avocado and was like the best sandwich you can make home between two slices of bread with good ingredients, but with a delicious dressing and panini'd. Really beautiful outdoor space wasn't expecting this at all. Thanks for Google for bringing me here and now I add to Yelp! Would be a great place for an event“
“Love this place! Great food with lots of flavour! Nice people working and just a totally welcoming environment! Love the music and they are always playing local music often!As a student the good quality/healthy food that meets many of mine and my friends different dietary needs!Whenever I order anything I don't like they offer to make me a new one! Wayyyyy nicer than any other place near my campus!I can't express how much I love this café! As a small townie moving to this city it's like a slice of home!Not only that but they are dog friendly and have lots of quirky little elements to breath good vibes into the place!“
“Lovely cafe right across the street from Orchestra Hall. My daughter plays with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra's Civic Youth Concert band so I have time to burn during her rehearsals. Give Thanks is a great place to grab a pasty and coffee. The croissants are butter and flaky. Delicious. The iced latte is out of this world good. I see myself being a frequent customer.“
“Adorable place!!!! The decor, even the bathrooms are SO CUTE. I got a mocha and it was good, more foam on top than I'm used to but still good. Bought some strawberry sprinkle shorties for me and my daughter and they were amazing. My friend ordered the quiche and she said it was delicious. Definitely want to come back!“
“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!“
“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.“
“I've come here several times with my family and it's been a great experience every time! Both of my boys (3 and 5) can be very impatient and rambunctious but the friendly staff didn't seem to mind at all.There can be a bit of a wait in line during the summer when it's busy, but the staff really tries their best to give great service!“
“I just went inside the business for coffee. The service was great. The employee was engaging and the decor is niceWheelchair accessibility: Door entrance and common areas are spacious enough for mobility devices and have accessible bathrooms“
“One of the best coffee places near Wayne State! I literally go here every day and I am obsessed with their iced brown sugar lattes and at the moment their seasonal pumpkin spice is amazing! They have really good pastries and food as well! The staff is also super friendly! Highly recommend!!!“
“The food was fresh but the lady employee was very rude and she gave my order wrong . When I reached out to tell her that she gave my the wrong donuts she just walked away without replying to me, but the guy over the counter was very helpful ( Urevesh) he replaced my order.“
