Whenever my fianceè and I are visiting in Detroit, Roasting Plant is always a MUST. I will be…read morehonest here: the drinks are a little pricey and so are the loose beans (yes, you can buy loose beans to take home!), but they're always fantastic with their flavors and service. I had a caramel latte (recommended by the friendly staff) and it was worth every penny! I also really enjoy the atmosphere; from a nice little sitting area outside to the beans shooting over your head when you order (go and you'll see what I mean!). I know there are a lot of coffee shops in the Detroit area, but put this one towards the top of your list!

Super hot so it took a bit to cool, but then a strong roast. While the laws of thermodynamics were underway, I was able to watch the flow of customers, observe the "Javabot" that sadly no one used this morning and watch the Detroit traffic circling around Campus Martius. Other than I was not able to get their wifi to work (Detroit has a free wifi as well), it was a good resting spot with quiet background music and it never did get any other sit down customers while I dawdled.

My favorite Matcha spot in the downtown Detroit area, hands down!!…read more Bright, open and airy inside. Open air seating outside as well spilling into a beautiful alley that allow you to visit other quaint shops while you sip. Helpful and friendly baristas answered my questions about the quality of the Matcha. I had a hot Matcha latte to start the morning with while I took a Matcha tea to go and my husband ordered a Mocha. We noticed there was Mad Cap Flash canned cold coffee at the airport so we purchased some cans for home!!

I was here just after they opened (at 6 am!) and enjoyed morning coffee and wifi before heading to the office. I love a coffee shop that has a cortado on the menu. Or a Gibraltar. This tells me that the barista isn't some button pusher but instead of a craft coffee barista who actually has some training. I'm talking to you, Green Siren people. The barista this morning assembled a perfect cortado for me. Half espresso and half steamed (not foamed) milk in a short glass. I love the cortado because it's the same amount of coffee as a big latte but now I won't need to hit the restroom all morning! It was fabulous, delivered to my table as I wrote my morning's Yelp reviews. Dessert Oasis is a little grunge, a little industrial, a little coffee shop. It's not fancy but they have lovely wooden tables, comfortable seating, quiet music and power outlets. If I wasn't heading into the office, I could spend all day sitting here and OD'ing on great coffee. [Review 869 of 2025 - 434 in Michigan - 24426 overall]

It is in front of a building that has a lot of other storefronts...but if you park anywhere on that block of Michigan Ave you will be within walking distance. They thrive in coffee and pastries but they do have a really good egg sandwich as well. They are super nice and friendly and will walk your food to your table. It's not a large shop so it may be crowded depending on what time you go. There is a countertop that seats 4, a long table ther seats about 10, and a few 2 top tables. If you have a large group this may not be for you. Alba egg sandie - this was an excellent sandwich. I wish it had sausage or bacon on it but regardless it's great. It's light and fluffy as well as airy and savory. It comes with the aioli/chive and this is what sets it off. But the egg is thick and the perfect size to boot.

[Out-of-Towner Review]…read more Possibly one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had! That's a strong statement, but OH MY was it good! The Alba Egg Sandie is a soufflé egg on a brioche bun with cheddar, chile deârbol aioli, and chive (available until 2pm). The flavor was incredible. My only gripe is how much egg is on there, but I tend to get the egg ick quick. So I'm sure it's a normal size and I am just odd. I was so enamored with the breaky sando, I don't fully remember my thoughts on the coffee. It's an iced latte with soy milk, I think. If not, it's oat milk. Either way, the food stole the show! The interior is a vibe and I really enjoyed it in there. And so did many others, the back was already full with people gathering, studying, or working. The front was empty and full of good vibes. The staff were what I may call eccentric. Not quick to hurry themselves or their customers. They didn't even say my name when my food was ready. Not a big deal, just didn't realize this was their style, since it was my first time. If you're in or near #corktowndetroit, I highly suggest a visit! Don't be silly and stroll right past, stop in!

It reminds me of a coffee roastery or storehouse. Much like its predecessor, The Gathering, the baristas are always warm and welcoming.

Definitely worth checking out that seasonal menu as it will be unlike anything in the immediate area.
