    Matcha that was not made properly
    Maddy B.

    The worst matcha ever the grounds were still visible in the drink, tasted like old milk, and was just not good. Disappointed because it's such a cute place with a great location. Person who made seemed irritated so maybe it was just a bad day??? Anyways, it was the worst ever, so sad.

    Cute drawing on the window!

    I've been meaning to try Cahoots Cafe and am glad I finally got the chance to do so today! My friend and I stopped by after a light lunch this afternoon. The interior is very spacious and clean, but there's not a lot of seating. That might actually be a good thing now since omicron and other nasty COVID variants are on the loose. In order to sit in, we had to verify our vaccination status with our barista. I'm really glad that Cahoots is taking these safety precautions! The barista was very funny and quirky, which made my friend and I laugh a lot while ordering. He definitely gave us good recommendations based on our drink preferences. We really enjoyed talking to him, and this was a huge plus for me. I got the cafe miel latte (honey & cinnamon) with oat milk. For the most part, I enjoyed this drink. It's a bit too sweet for me (not a huge sweet tooth), but honey is OK so it's whatever. I would prefer the flavor of cinnamon to be more obvious (so maybe more cinnamon and less honey?) but overall, it was great with the oat milk. I don't think I could really taste the espresso, but I mean, that's kind of what you expect in a flavored latte. Next time, I'll definitely give their black coffee or more espresso heavy drinks (like a cortado) a try. They use RoosRoast beans here, so you know it's gonna be good quality coffee! Great vibes, funny and friendly baristas, and good coffee. I'd highly recommend giving this place a try! There's also cute drawings on the windows.

    Cozy place with a fireplace

    Just discovered this nice cafe and coworking space downtown. The interior is open and airy, but also cozy with seating by a fireplace. The working space looks nice. I had the 5-spice Latte and it was a nice blend of spices without being too hot. I would definitely come back.

    Impressed by my first visit to this cozy little cafe. The Brown Bear Latte (maple syrup & brown sugar) was a new seasonal special so I decided to give it a try. Delicious, and not too sweet! Atmosphere is quiet and cozy for getting some light work done. If you ask for your drink "for here", they ask to see your vaccine card which made me feel safe to sit and enjoy.

    An iced vanilla oat milk latte from Cahoots Café - the bright spot in an otherwise dreary morning.

    Well, the reviews don't disappoint! I stopped by Cahoots Café for the first time today - and walked away with the best iced latte I've had in Ann Arbor in a long time. The shop itself is super cute - with an aesthetic that's clean and modern, a weekend pop-up for those who are looking for some tasty treats, friendly baristas, and a few small tables set up outside. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the specials board until after I ordered, but I love that 20% of sales for their pride latte will be donated to Ozone House through the month of June. All in all, it was definitely worth the drive in from Dexter - and I'll be back soon to grab one of those pride lattes!

    Nice cafe/coffee spot with a cool indoor area with plenty of seating and eclectic decor. The menu had plenty of hot and cold beverages from tea to coffee based drinks. I had the cold brew coffee and it was strong and flavorful. The location is about a block from where the farmers market is on Saturdays which makes it convenient. I will definitely go back and try more menu items!!

    First of all, I am obsessed with the aesthetic ambience in this cafe, such a vibe. They have a pretty big variety of drinks and treats on their menu. I tried their seasonal brown sugar m salt latte and it was delicious! Very smooth and creamy flavor. I will definitely be back to try more drinks! i'm sure the lavender latte is incredible as well. The only tricky part was finding quick parking because it is off a busier road but definitely only a short walk from liberty st. Would love to come back and sit in here.

    I can't help but get a latte every time I come here (it's just too good). Cahoots Cafe is definitely my favorite coffee place in Ann Arbor.

    This is a great coffee shop & I'm so glad to see it in downtown Ann Arbor. The coffee and the…read moredessert were great. The space is nice and well put together. I might actually buy coffee and tea as holiday gifts for my coworkers. The reason for the 4 star instead of 5 is because the women's bathroom was not clean, customer service can be improved, and some music can really make the cafe more inviting. I made coupe of orders, one included dessert. I was handed the cake with no fork, had to ask for one. Wasn't given napkins and didn't bother asking. I might sound petty, but honestly the product can be great. However, customer service is what brings customers back. There needs to be proper training. If I'm going to spend money and do everything myself and ask for everything that should be the basic/ standard, then I might as well make my coffee at home. It terms of music, I think it would amplify the space. When I stopped by the cafe, I was the only one in the main space and it was dead silent and all I can hear is the buzzing of the cooler that had the water and pop/ drinks. Some light music in the background would've blocked that noise. I only share this because I would love to see this business thrive.

I enjoyed a rich pour over accompanied by a delicious Pistachio Basbousa Cake. Other members of our party enjoyed their Biscoff Latte and White Mocha. As an added treat we ordered a Carmel Milk Cake. The cafe was quiet and made for a perfect meet up or study spot. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be going back!

    "RooRoast!"…read more Waiting for the light to change at Main and Stadium, I look down at the clock. Seven minutes to five. "What the heck. I'll call." "Hey Siri, call Roos Roast." My heart races a little. I'd been trying to get over for a coffee all day and now they are about to close. I blurt out my ask. "...any way you could just leave a coffee outside on the picnic table. I could slip the money under the door?" "Don't worry about it." Kyra says. "Just knock. I'll make it right now." "Thank you so much." 5:02 pm: I zoom into the parking lot, jump out of the car, run up to the door and knock. The door swings open and there she is...my coffee angel; coffee in hand with a smile. I know she is trying to get out of there. I grab the coffee, shove some money with a good tip into her hand. "Thank you so much. I'll write about it." I yell back. It's taken me a couple of weeks but herein lies my humble expression of gratitude to Kyra, the one who had the where with all to stop and ask herself: Who's in charge here, the clock or my heart? I love everything about RoosRoast; the music, the art, the bulletin board, the garden, and especially the relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to stop and have a chat with someone in line or the lovely people who make you really good coffee. Did I mention the really good coffee? All of this run by the renewable energy of the sun. I learned from a young person (I'm 70) in line one day that the buzz word in commerce right now, is "frictionless"; luring us to fly even faster through our precious moments without obstruction. No time to chat or stop and connect. Oh my gosh! If we don't have each other, what else is there? As Ann Arbor drifts away from the townie town it once was, RoosRoast stands defiant; determined to hold space for the slow down, the slow talk, the long pull. I always leave RR happier and more at peace than when I arrived. Thank you Kyra and RoosRoast
