    Lovely pastries, bread, sandwiches, and coffee. They serve Sabbath coffee - free refills while dining in. I love the chocolate croissant for breakfast and Crispelli's cannolis are the best in Michigan (we had them at our wedding reception they're that good!). After 10:30am, they serve yummy sandwiches, which they'll warm for you upon request (see pics). Dedicated parking and quick service. Don't forget to grab a loaf of epi if you can before it's sold out! A few places to sit inside and out, however, I just enjoy on the go!

    That's supposed to be a thin crust wild mushroom pizza it wasn't very good

    Very disappointed in my wild mushroom pizza last night in Clarkston usually it's very good but last night it was doughy and not cooked. Very good. I ordered it well done and I asked for goat cheese and they didn't even know what it was.

    This place is the coziest bakery with a variety of breads and sweets. I usually come for the sourdough which is light and airy, but last time I got the cinnamon roll and it was AMAZING. It's flaky like a croissant with the perfect amount of icing! Highly recommend! There's a few tables inside and they do have WiFi if you wanted to do some work here as well!

    The perfect place for a weekend treat! Crispelli's has been a go-to restaurant for pizza, baked treats, starters, sandwiches and salads for many years. I just learned about the bakery on Main, and stopped in for a treat. I was famished, so I ordered a ham & cheese croissant, a lemon tart, and a treat for later in the week. I chose carrot cake for my mid-week pick me up. The croissant is fantastically flaky and buttery. The crisp bits on the pastry was what truly sent me. It was heavenly. I also enjoyed the lemon tart filling, which is sweet with the perfect tang of lemon. I didn't much care for the crust, it seemed to be baked too long. I couldn't really eat it. The carrot cake is good. There of course, are lots of other bakery staples to choose from including breads, which are offered in daily specials, cookies, brownies and a variety of cakes. The coffee drink menu looks good as well. There are a handful of seating options, but perfect for carry-out. There is a small adjacent parking lot.

    This bakery is seriously amazing. I always make a stop if I'm in the area. The bread they bake here is how bread should be: flavorful by itself without the need of anything else, but of course you can add butter, spreads, or make an amazing sandwich with it. I love their sesame semolina bread. The toasted seeds add a fragrance to the bread as well as a textural contrast. The baguettes are good too, with diaphanous, lacey insides and a good crust outside. I wish I could say I love the epi bread-it's a baguette cut to look like a stalk of wheat so you can break off pieces for rolls, but they sprinkle a little too much salt on top for my taste. Instead, I buy the rolls which do the trick. I like how they have loaves of bread open to air and not stored in plastic bags-this helps preseve the texture of the crust. The pastries are also delicious. I have had the croissants before, both savory and sweet, and they are flakey and full flavored. One tip is to come early-they sell out of some items pretty quickly, and the last time I came here was in the early afternoon and they had already sold out of many items. They do get busy in the morning, so be prepared for lines.

    I don't go to bakeries often but I'll say that Cripellis is one of my favorites. The staff that I encountered has been friendly, engaging and gave great suggestions when I'm torn between cookies and brownies. The Epi bread is crunchy, salty and delicious. It's also a great coffee shop to go to work. The space is quiet during the day.

    Chocolate cake

    I'm updating my review because Crispelli's used to use European buttercream in their cakes, but they've changed to American, which is really disappointing because it's extremely difficult to find a bakery that uses European. I thought they had the best cakes in the area, but I wouldn't buy again because it tastes no different than a grocery store cake to me. If you don't like that kind of frosting, I wouldn't get a slice here. I'm not deducting a star because the laminated pastries and bread are still five stars (though I miss the apricot danish, my family's favorite) -- not removing one just for cake.

    This is a bakery everyone kneads in their life :) pun intended. I already love crispellis for their pizzas and salads and finally ventured to this stand alone location bakery located on the less busy stretch of Main Street. The cafe has an amazing aesthetic and a decent amount of seating both inside and outside. It was cool to see bread being rolled and hand made thru the window, it is clear that bread is being made fresh and daily and this bakery has that artisan feel to it. There is a great variety of breads, pastries, cookies, and drinks that this location offers. I tried a carrot cake croissant and it was unique and very tasty! The only con I noticed is the trash was overflowing when I visited but I think I was there towards the end of the day. Anyways a great place to chill and enjoy a good pastry and drink in RO!

The people working here were so friendly and personable with literally everyone that walked in the door. The service was top notch. It is also the most adorable place giving vibes of Lamy's food counter at Henry Ford Museum. I loved all of the options on the menu and it was so hard just picking a couple items to try. We had chicken tacos. They were so good and so fresh, I loved the sauce on top. Honestly, I am not sure if it was cheese or a sour cream type mixture, but it was creamy and flavorful. I also had the torta which was absolutely incredible. It had the same chicken as the taco. The chicken was slow cooked or stewed and shredded and was so flavorful, like a homecooked chef's kiss. The bread was fresh. I loved the sauce poured over it, making it a dipped and soaked sandwich. The carrots and cilantro, sliced radishes and sliced fresh jalapenos added a level of crunch, freshness and deeper flavor profile. I would want to get this every time. We also tried their delicious "curly" fries, which were like julienned shoestring fries fired fresh. It seemed like every dish was made fresh and right in front of you. So worth it, plus the prices are great. I would love to try their fried chicken plate, their breakfast sandwiches, and their other desserts. We talked to the man behind the counter who seemed like maybe a manager. He gave us their famous chocolate chip cookie to try. It was fresh baked and delicious. I would love to take home more of those. It looked so simple but was better than many bakeries specializing in cookies alone. He also gave us an second order of fries to take home with my leftovers, just top notch kindness and service. This man told us that OWL owns other restaurants and we would probably like them. I am open to trying more of their group but I do want to return here. This is one of those diners you would find being profiled for best kept secret or gourmet home cooked foods under the guise of fast food.

I ordered the country breakfast, which came with biscuits and gravy, eggs, toast, potatoes, and sausage--everything was spot on.

I went with the cubed breakfast potatoes (not sure what they officially call them), and they were so much better--crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly.

Oak Diner has a really, really good vibe, and I'm glad I rediscovered breakfast here. Highly recommend.

The frittata was nicely plated, with a dollop of sour cream in the middle. It a bit bland tasting to my palate. Payment is accepted via cash, credit or QR Code. All worked well for our group. Restroom was clean and stocked. I would definitely consider returning to First Watch again.

    Idk what's going on with the First Watch chain but the food is a little more meh every time I come…read moreand the prices are ridiculous The service at royal oak location is always good and that keeps my mom requesting this place but a $9.00 pancake?? That's one pancake, nothing on the side, no extras... somehow a pancake is $8.50 and it's another .50 because we ordered the pumpkin version (again, no toppings so I guess that's for the spices folded in??) So one pancake and a drink plus tip and it's $20 and it wasn't better than ok Prices are up all over but that's ridiculous We also had the veggie sandwich with kale salad for a few dollars more but at least that felt like product and effort went into it
