They make the creamiest latte here. Not sure if it is their technique or the milk they use but it is very good. Let me know if I am wrong. Sweets and bake goods are different everyday. Great coffee with friendly staffs. Plenty of art works to enjoy too read more

I come to Black Box a couple times a month. I really enjoy the atmosphere which has a nice friendly artsy vibe. The art they display (which they change every month or so) feature local artists and can vary from paintings to pictures. Their coffee and specialty drinks are very good but to be honest I usually just get an iced or hot matcha depending on the time of year (what can I say I am a simple guy). They do also have fresh baked goods available if you're looking for something sweet to go with your drink (they are pretty tasty too). I also love the fact that they have an outdoor walk up window. Since this is a local place for me I can walk up with my dogs and feel comfortable not having to bring them in the establishment or if I don't feel like going in I can just quickly order there. The staff is often pretty friendly and accommodating if you have any questions for them about their drinks or need to make an adjustment to your order. They also are usually very efficient with getting your drink order ready even during busy times. One thing you need to remember though is that since they are a gallery they have limited indoor seating but if you want to stay for a while they have some standing tables and an outdoor seating area to accommodate you. read more

I visited here after a full breakfast next door. I was curios because I never even saw a his building before. Upon stepping in I was immediately in love. The artistry throughout is breathtaking, the smell of coffee is divine and not overwhelming. The coffee itself is perfect and the service was faster than expected. We hung out for a bit just to soak in the atmosphere. I would come here everyday if it was closer to where I live. But I'll have to settle for once a week going forward. And I'm telling all of my friends visit too. read more

We really enjoyed this spot. They have unique options as well as your standard drip coffee. A gallery to pass the time & neat homemade trinkets for purchase. My Matcha latte was refreshing. Someone got the seasonal vanilla maple & another had the air infused espresso. Everyone left happy :) Definitely a nice little spot. Oh & super friendly staff! Thanks again. Oh ! There's even a 10% off a cup of coffee if you check in on yelp. (for now) hopefully you get it too read more

Black Box - Little art gallery while waiting for your coffee - Art Galleries Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

I was running some errands in my old stomping grounds of Dearborn. I hadn't been here since well before the start of the pandemic and I was so excited to see all the new businesses and developments hopping there along Michigan Avenue. As I was parking, I saw the Black Box building and made a mental note to look up what it was when I parked. I quick search on Yelp told me that it is a much beloved art gallery and coffee shop. I was feeling a bit parched on that sunny day so I popped in to check it out. And I'm so glad I did! I had the most lovely experience! After a year+ of lockdown I was afraid I had forgotten how to socialize but the super friendly Sarah made for easy conversation as I waited for my iced tea (they brew and chill your choice on the spot). I learned that they had recently moved into this new space from down the block and it's truly the perfect location. There's a ton of foot traffic over there and they take full advantage of it, too, with a walk up window for ordering. I was already making plans to bring my pups with me next time for a stroll through town and a walk up here to get a beverage. It's also great if you're out for a jog and need a refuel, or just want to grab and go. The tables inside hadn't been set back up yet so the space felt very comfortable and spacious. I'm fully vaxxed but also fully 100% a hypochondriac so I haven't quite let go of my mask yet but I would have felt super comfortable taking it off there because it was so airy. As part art gallery they also had some artwork up on the walls and this weekend they have a "paint and pour over" event where $25 can get you a coffee and paint supplies to enjoy an artistic afternoon with a friend or on your own. Love that concept and I can't wait to see what they do next now that things are loosening around here! Oh, and by the way, my iced tea was delicious! read more

It was a really cute place with art installations in the back. Although there was a line, the coffee came out relatively quick. I ordered a lavender latte and it was extremely tasty. read more

The atmosphere is beautiful the best is the coffe It's my first time visit Detroit City and found Black Box and ordered their single origin coffee, very impressed with their quality of beans. Definitely recommend this cafe. read more

I recently visited black box and I was amazed by the Great service, great tasting coffee, and. great concept. Everything was so amazing and the staff and owners were so friendly. This little gem is a family owned business. They have a walk up window which I think is pretty awesome. The two best selling drinks are the lavender latte and the iced caramel latte. Check out how beautiful they both look if u swipe right. They both tasted delicious. And they were paired beautiful with a freshly made strawberry rhubarb cake. Never had it before but it was super good !!! What's unique about them is that they feature many artists on the wall and have events such as open mic night. Definitely sounds like a cool place to be to meet some ppl. We'll be seeing you guys soon read more

Absolutely *amazing* addition to this area! Black Box is a wonderful, family run artisan coffee shop. After searching a bit on Yelp for a new coffee shop, I started my day on a sunny morning by going to get Black Box and the walk up window was the sweetest addition to the experience. The barista was very knowledgeable and friendly and told me the lavender latte was their most popular menu item so that's what I ordered. Lavender lattes can be tricky sometimes but at Black Box, their lavender was *wow* so yummy!! I also tried the blackberry almond cake, which is made fresh by the owner, and it was such a yummy, light pastry to have with my coffee!! I will definitely be making this a regular place for my coffee and morning vibe! read more

Well, wow. How incredibly cool. I honestly wouldn't have thought that this place was a super cool coffee shop if I hadn't searched through Yelp. But, I'm blown away by how awesome this place is. First, the coffee shop things: the selection is limited, but high-quality. I'm currently nibbling on a ridiculously tasty almond croissant. I'm told that there are usually additional selections, but they are out at the moment. That's fine with me. But, if you look at the artwork here, it reminds me that I haven't been in art gallery in a very long time. This place is a great excuse to change that. The owner said that they change the exhibit about once a month. They have concerts here sometimes. And, they also have smaller, more affordable things, made by Detroit area artists. This is a super cool fusion of concepts that I would expect to see in the bay area of California. Fortunately, I don't have to drive that far to get to this place. read more

Not your typical coffee shop. A wonderful corner place for coffees off Wagner Place on Michigan Ave. My sister and I came here right after our lunch to try a Cappuccino and a Latte, with dessert. The pours were perfect and had a cute design on top. A delectable slice of Blackberry almond cake. The interior was modestly decorated with local artists works on the walls. Service was friendly and also happy to answer all our questions about the place and artwork. This is the first time I have ever tried a stand up bar coffee shop, but due to Covid sit down seating wasn't available at the time. I can't wait until the weather is warmer to take my coffee outside to enjoy the view and weather. This place will defiantly get busier when Covid is finally done, and more people are out and about. I would highly recommend you give this place a try if your in West Dearborn! read more

Our go-to coffee spot! Their iced caramel latte is my absolute favorite. They blend the flavoring in with the milk which gives it a special touch and makes it have a delicious frothy top. The grab and go window is convenient for sitting outside at their tables, or going inside offers an opportunity to see unique, local artwork they have for sale/on display! Only little critique I have is hoping that someday they will make their own flavored syrups for their coffees - they currently use the usual brand you see everywhere and I try to avoid due to the ingredients added. Otherwise, seriously 100% 5 star with kind employees and owners. We are forever guests and come almost weekly :) read more

5 stars for service, great tasting coffee, great concept/location! Currently they have a walk up window and the inside is open for viewing art. Soon they'll have outdoor seating too!

Who knew that one of the most popular spots in an up-and-coming neighborhood would be an art gallery? That's precisely the case at Black Box Gallery, a cool must-see that has transformed a tired corner in southwest Dearborn. The most recent (and well timed) exhibition, Posters on Politics, proved to be so popular that its stay was extended. This and other exhibitions have proven to be an easy way to spend a leisurely day learning something you've never even imagined. Lately, Black Box Gallery has expanded its hours to offer fresh coffee and baked goods indoors and through its convenient walk-up window. For early-risers, this is quickly proving to be a fast, convenient, and tasty way to start the day. The various blends of coffee offer tasting experiences as unique as the parts of the world from which they came, and the teas are a great way to warm up, too. You also MUST try the fresh-baked pastries, which include a slightly-sweet almond flavor to a more zesty, yet not messy, za'atar reminiscent of the best of the Middle East. Do yourself a favor and introduce yourself to the Alcodray family. You'll feel very welcomed and you will already being planning your return visit before leaving your current one. read more

I love this place. We moved out of Dearborn right as the pandemic hit but have been coming to the area a lot to try out all the new places that opened after we left. This place is somewhere I so, so badly wish had opened prior to our move because I probably would've walked over every single day. The cafe is really sleek and modern inside, but still a cozy vibe, and the staff who work there are very welcoming and friendly. There is a walk up window where you can order coffee from outside as well and enjoy your coffee in the outdoor area behind all of the Michigan Avenue businesses. Their lattes are so smooth and perfect, the lavender latte with oatmilk is a favorite of mine. I always try to make sure to stop by here for a coffee if I'm in the area. Definitely a must try spot. read more

It's not cheap but great coffee and paintings.Great place and friendly,beautiful baristas.

Delicious coffee, cozy atmosphere, and phenomenal service! This family run coffee shop has easily become one of my favorite go-to shops with their lavender latte being my ultimate favorite (so yum!). I enjoyed my latte with a piece of warm, homemade Blackberry Almond Cake, which I highly recommend! The Dark Chocolate Chip Sea Salt Cookies are AMAZING too! The art is constantly updated and created by very talented local artists. This is overall a beautifully ran business by a beautiful and warm hearted family who is ever so welcoming! Everyone should go try this amazing coffee and enjoy the art! read more

This is an interesting concept. It does not invite one to sit and relax. All the "eco" cups are disposable to go. The space has art on the walls. The coffee was mediocre. And overpriced. The staff were super nice and friendly. It was enjoyable enough, but not what I am looking for in a coffee shop. read more

Finally. Some GOOD coffee in West Dearborn. Love what they did with this spot. The walk up window is awesome. Met the owner on our first visit. Nice guy who loves what he's doing. I've been here twice already and have had a great experience both times. Plenty of parking directly across the street in the parking structure. read more

This place is soooo cute, it always has an art or community event happening. Their gallery changes every few months and there is always something new to see. The coffee is the best in Dearborn, deserts are delicious, and the matcha latte is PERFECT. It's not too sweet and it has a really balanced matcha and milk flavor. I always go here when I'm walking in downtown West Dearborn, and it has a convenient walk up window that makes it easy to grab a drink and go. Its literally the perfect business to be at that corner: a friendly, neighborhood coffee shop. read more

I'm not a big yelper. But this spot deserves to be put on blast. My buddy and I were looking for a spot to have a cup of coffee and play a few songs. He mentioned the new spot on the corner of Carlysle and Monroe and that's where we ended up. We were greeted by the owner, Ray. He was extremely welcoming and professional. We asked him if we could play a few songs and he was all for it. The coffee and service are second to none. The space is wide open with walls filled with exceptional works of local art. This spot is a fresh breath of air for the city. Be sure to support your local business and get up here for a solid cup of coffee and conversation. Hopefully you're lucky enough to run into Uncle Al. read more

I discovered Black Box last summer when I heard about a new art gallery opening in Dearborn. I have seen every exhibition since finding them and they are always engaging and enjoyable. They have also been slowly rolling out the coffee shop within the gallery and it is imho the best coffee shop in Dearborn! They serve Great Lakes Roasters Coffee and pull a mighty fine espresso. Having moved here from Portland, Oregon not too long ago I learned to appreciate great tasting coffee while living there. Ditch the chain shops and go to Black Box I hope they start selling whole beans one day for my home brewing. I this little stretch of Monroe St. and look forward to seeing how it grows. read more
