Ham and cheese and chips and pickle $15.50  - that's too much IMO

Very nice staff, very cool space, coffee was mediocre, sandwich way overpriced - but good - $15.50 for a simple ham and cheese is too much IMO

Breakfast sandwich - Barry's sesame seed bagel, egg, pepper jack, cucumbers and mustard

This is a lovely spot in downtown Saline that brings the community together over food, coffee, mock tails, good vibes, and fun events. There's live music, knitting/crocheting, and family game nights, plenty of tables with an outlet next to each one at table height for working, and an all-gender bathroom with a changing table and free menstrual products. Your needs are getting met, people!!! The people behind the counter are friendly, they've got options for vegans, GF, nut allergies, you name it, and breakfast and lunch sandwiches or bagels. Loads of coffee or drink options, too. Although the very spacious indoor area has tables and benches to choose from, there are also tables out front if you prefer fresh air and people watching. This is a lovely spot with tasty food and a welcoming ambiance. Will definitely go back!

The cafe at 6am when they open

Go for the Breakfast sandwich instead of the breakfast burrito. It's not only their best seller, but also is more enjoyable IMHO. ENVIRONMENT This was my first visit. We went at 6am when they opened and I met with an old grade school friend for 4 hours. The cafe environment was a superb hangout, with brick walls, open areas and cozy tables. The staff was super friendly, and they felt like old friends even though we just met. COFFEE The coffee was good. I am a coffee snob, and didn't find the coffee to be of the highest standards but was better than standard coffee shops. My first cup was black, which is how I normally drink it. They offer dark, medium and light roasts which was nice. I opted for the light roast as that is my preference (accentuates the bean flavor more). I tried some drink called a "Debbie" which was like a Carmel Macchiato type drink. The whipped cream on top is the real deal...super creamy! FOOD I like their breakfast sandwich better than the burrito. Super customizable as you pick your bread, your meat, and your cheese. Keep in mind they make their own sausage, so that was my option. The staff recommended cream cheese with egg and sausage. It tasted great but squirts out and is slightly messy. That's what napkins are for. The burrito was more like they took a sandwich and used a tortilla instead of a bread. The sausage was in an uncut patty form and the eggs were scrambled but solid piece. The was a delicious creamy sauce that brought a good spice to the burrito. Overall, nice upscale cafe in Saline!

A lovely little cafe in town, that's just a short walk from my home. Tasty treats, delicious drinks, and very nice staff. I've been going here for years and they've consistently have been good experiences. Thank you for making Saline a cozier place to be.

Lattes and food are yummy and their service is amazing. we'll definitely be back!

A great little place to take your computer and do a little work or to read a book. The staff is always friendly and helpful.

Qahwah House - This Pistachio Dream pastry was delicious!

Qahwah House

I frequent this plaza a lot for Plum Market, Ricewood and my colorist. Ahead of an appointment, I…read moredecided I needed a quick caffeine fix. I'm familiar with Qahwah House thanks to Yelp! We had a Yelp event at their Dearborn location. I really wanted the iced Adeni chai that a few reviews have talked about, but they were unfortunately out. So, I got the hot Adeni chai with no sweetener. It does take a little longer as they brew it fresh. You can watch them heat and steep from the induction stove right there which is pretty cool. I was surprised by how spacious it was. There were ample tables (that I appreciated they were wiping down on a regular basis) as well as WiFi. If I need to change up scenery, I'll have to stop by here. Also they had a whole refrigerated case of goodies. I'll have to come back and get something - that Pistachio dream cheesecake was calling to me!

Honestly, I had an average experience. The barista was nice and helped recommend a great refresher…read morebut nothing special. We went when there was a student discount (buy one get one free) so that was great, but to be honest, I probably wouldn't go if one of my drinks weren't free- the prices are crazy! But, I guess I can't complain given my normal Starbucks order is around the same cost. Drinks were tasty but the refresher was kind of bland. Again, if we're comparing to Starbucks, I probably would still choose my regular refresher there over this one. Environment was quiet, clean, and easy to study, however it was SO hot! I'm wondering if the heat was on. Not sure why that would be the case since it was the middle of September. Overall, I was a little disappointed with my experience. It did not stand out to me and was overwhelming because of the heat.

lots of potential but the staff is incredibly rude which ruined the whole experience…read more tldr: coffee: 2.5/5 food 4/5 service 1.5/5 happened to stumble into DOZER after working out with out of town friends. since it was my first time here i asked the cashier what sizes were available and what they looked like. i was met with a flat "12 or 16 oz" .... okay eventually she showed me what the cups actually looked like. and okay we all have bad days so i kinda just wrote that off. i ordered a 16 oz ube latte and my friends got a 12oz ube latte and a 12oz fruit loop latte. i was actually really impressed and excited about all of the options that were available! additionally we all preferred food (2 burritos and a monte cristo). our coffee came out first and i was already kinda thrown off because even though 2 of us got the same drink in diff sizes, they looked DRASTICALLY different in color. this drink was brown in color and not purple. i wish i kept the drink to take a comparison pic. ok maybe a fluke. tried mine (16oz) and it tasted enough like ube. but when i tried my friends drink.... straight up tasted like the discarded water from espresso mixed w some oat milk. i'm not kidding, it was so gross. my friend was just gonna drink it but im thinking "surely this is mistake and we can get it fixed!" i was sadly mistaken lmao i take the drink up to the barista and tell him what's going on. i don't think was being rude or too demanding by saying "hey my friend ordered this and it doesn't really taste right. can it be remade?" he responded in the most condescending, rude way!! he told me that "because of the different size, the ratio (of milk/ube/espresso) is different because of the size..." and that "if i don't like it i should order something different." .... i was so shocked by this extremely rude response. and i kindly asked for it just to be remade. there were other people standing around so i really didn't want to make a scene, but i really did not appreciate being talked down to in such a way. a mistake is one thing, but to blame it on preference and then to insult my intelligence with some bs excuse like a ratio issue (which doesn't make sense because if you're making the same drink in a diff size.... then wouldn't you scale it up/down to retain the same flavor???). just such a bad customer service experience. he begrudgingly made another one, which i will add, looked and tasted DRASTICALLY different from my 16 oz drink and the original nasty drink!! it was wayyy better which makes me think there is some inconsistencies with how the drinks are made. regardless, at this price point i really think customer service could be way better all around. sad because i work nearby and was exited to have a new coffee place to go into before work, but i will not be returning. the staff who brought out food out was lovely, and i wish there was a more open and inviting vibe here

As I drove up to the incredibly brutalist, all white and gray style buildings, listening to the…read morecustomers discuss coffee notes with strong coffee in hand, I could smell the millennials before I walked in. With that being said, my hot take has always been that millennials make some of the best coffee. I tried the miso caramel hot latte with oat milk, the honey matcha, and a mango lemonade, all of which turned out delicious! The miso caramel had a deep rich miso flavor which complimented the caramel so well. Though I probably wouldn't order it again because it wasn't quite my preferred sweetness for that flavor combo, I still admired the ingenious of the flavor combo and really enjoyed it once I added a little extra sugar. The honey matcha was very good and I like the subtle sweetness that the honey gave the matcha. I could tell that their grade of matcha wasn't the best but they made up for it in technique and flavoring. The mango lemonade was a sweet pick me up and I really enjoyed the fresh mango taste. For food, I tried their lox bagel and I will admit, it wasn't my favorite lox bagel I've had. I could tell everything was fresh and I did enjoy it to a degree, but it tasted very heavily pickley and wished it leaned more into the classic lox and caper bagel I prefer. I also didn't prefer paying 16 + tax for it and definitely won't be doing that again. Despite that, I don't think it deserves a removal of a star because it was still made well, it just wasn't for me. Though I'm a gen-Z and the brutalist style lacks the whimsy I so desperately (and totally not performatively) crave, I still appreciate that it cleans and there is so much space to study if necessary. I also appreciate the community mindset with the fresh roasting across the street, pizza bar Nextdoor, and ceramics studio down the road (I love a coffee + ceramics combo as a ceramicist myself). This place is definitely a hidden treasure and I can't wait to try more of it and bring friends along with me.

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
