On…read moreanother errand at a strip mall, I noticed this business right away and stopped in after finishing my shopping and dinner takeout. I like the whole experience and there are so many choices. Being a new Boba tea customer, the staff was very helpful in helping me select a drink. I chose Tiger as a base with Thai and black tea. I like Chai spice, and Thai was a similar taste. There are many toppings to add, and multiple can be added for a truly custom drink. I chose a favorite caramel and the Boba to complete the drink. I went up to the counter to place my order to get advice and suggestions. The kiosk would be handy also. I like the fact that the drink was sealed with plastic, and the straw is thick due to the Boba. The business is clean and spacious, and I could see how it would be good for students completing coursework on laptops or gatherings of friends and coworkers. It is in a strip mall near the Saline Emagine and would be a good place pre and post movie to gather. Thanks Quikly for a great first time experience

The service was very kind, I enjoyed talking to the baristas that shift. As far as my drink, I got either a caramel or a tiramisu latte I think. The coffee quality is just not there for me. It wasn't to worst and was most definitely drinkable, but I'm just spoiled in the Ann Arbor area with the coffee we have there so the bitterness and tinge to the coffee they had there stuck out to me. Regardless, I would definitely come back and try something else or something none coffee related!

The value here was fantastic!! *Toasty Cardamom Latte - I was influenced by the little handwritten 'drink of the week' sign so I ordered this. It was really good - not too sweet and had all the warm notes of a toasty cardamom latte -- think like a brown sugar latte but better! Also for the coffee cred - they make their espresso on a beautiful matte lavender La Marzocco machine and they use Hyperion for their beans.

The food, though, lands squarely in the "just okay" category. The calamari came with a honey glaze that made them noticeably sweet. If you enjoy sweet‑leaning seafood dishes, you might love it, but it wasn't my favorite combination. The beer, on the other hand, outshines the food by a mile. I had the Heavenly Hefeweizen, and it was excellent smooth, refreshing, and easily the highlight of the meal. I also had the hot chocolate which was tasty and rich, but it comes topped with a giant marshmallow. It looks great for photos, but once you start drinking it, things get messy fast. Service was fine overall, nothing special, nothing terrible. The host, however, came off a bit rude and had us waiting even though there were plenty of open tables. My guess is they're short‑staffed, which might explain the delay, but the attitude didn't help. The bathroom could also use a more thorough cleaning. All in all, it's a nice spot for drinks and atmosphere, but the food and service have room to grow. If you're here for a good beer and a relaxed vibe, you'll probably enjoy it

Our server was quite efficient and pleasant. A bonus was that the manager/owner (?) came over to check on us and have a brief discussion. I had the fish and chips for lunch.

As a lifelong Washtenaw County resident, I am more than familiar with Zingerman's and their family…read moreof businesses. I appreciate the efforts they put into community building and local craft. But none of that is why I'm here... I stopped in on my way to work yesterday to get a cup of coffee and decided I'd better write a review about what I got. Many of the reviews below mention the great coffee that Zingerman's provides. But as a coffee drinker of 30 years, I can confidently say Zingerman's roasts the MOST BITTER coffee I've ever had. I guess it's a product for connoisseurs, but I am a little disappointed they don't have a normal coffee that tastes good. They only have burnt tasting, extraordinarily bitter coffees that make a British IPA beer taste watery. What's up with that? Why no mellow coffee at Zingerman's?? Also, if the cream curdles as soon as I add it to the coffee, I'm grossed out. If I want curds in my coffee, I'll dump some cottage cheese in there. What I prefer is a nice, smooth, creamy cup of drip coffee. There's really nothing better!

I'm not excited about their pastries whatsoever, especially when places like bird dog in ypsi have a superior sourdough that gets me through the week perfectly. Step it up guys
