    Braised Beef Benny
    Jessica R.

    Loved my visit to the Dime Store! I got a special - the Braised Beef Benny and it was so good. The sauce on the beef worked beautifully with the hollandaise. The eggs were cooked perfectly, and I loved the buttery puff pastry. I would order this again in a heartbeat. I wasn't as thrilled by the accompanying potatoes. They didn't have much flavor and they were lukewarm. I think I'll order fruit next time. My husband got the Reuben Omelette, and he really liked it. I tried a bite, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. Fluffy while still remaining moist. The Dime Stores serves good coffee as well. We will definitely be back!

    Great Downtown Brunch/Brekkie spot. They were slammed with regulars and travelers like us. Visiting from CO, stopped in and ordered the Veggie Benny, Veggie and Enchilada Omelettes. Veggie Benny was so money that it didn't even know it! Perfectly poached eggs drizzled with hollandaise sauce, fresh veggies on a stellar toasted English muffin. The omelettes were tasty, but the clear crème of the crop choice was the Benny! Great menu and full bar, they even will validate your parking.

    We were in town for weekend and stopped in here for a meal before the Detroit Auto Show. This place is awesome. The staff was friendly, and our waitress was an absolute vibe, a national treasure, and overall amazing at her job! This is a small restaurant, but they make really efficient use of their space. I didn't get pics of all the food. I started with a chai latte, and it was really really realllllllly good. Like I'm going to be dreaming of this chai latte for a while! The got the braised beef Benny. It was great. Their hollandaise is divine. My son got the corned beef hash, and it was great! We also got the French toast topped with fruit. The icing on the cake was their homemade strawberry jam. This was a wonderful meal with even better service!

    Corned beef hash w scrambled eggs
    Amanda B.

    Met a friend en route to Canada; great proximity to the tunnel and the expressway, and nice downtown location. Didn't have to wait for a table this morning, which was great. Waitress was promptly at the table, taking drink orders, then back to answer qs and get orders taken. I asked her if she'd rec the sausage and gravy bowl or the corned beef hash--she said corned beef hash was her favorite. Corned beef hash: they use Sy Ginsburg corned beef (made locally), which has a great flavor. Only wish the corned beef was hotter, it was served room temp-ish. The horseradish cream sauce was also very good, but wish it were on the corned beef instead of the eggs. Scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly, as were potatoes in the hash (also seasoning on potatoes was chef's kiss!) However, the Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes were undercooked and crunchy; wish they not only steamed sprouts, but also seared to get a nice crust and sweeter flavor. English muffin was undercooked and chewy instead of toasted and crisp. Coffee was forgettable, I'd just get water next time. Husband had the enchiladas omelette which he said was tasty, and our friend got the biscuit & gravy bowl, which he also liked. Great service; food on the table in 5-7 minutes; appreciate that their menu features lots of made in Michigan items from around the state (back of menu gives deets).

    Cheesesteak Benedict
    Rudy D.

    Was able to be seated right away. Place had a cool vibe! There was a table that was next to us that had a 4" gap. First guys decided to leave because they would not put them in another spot. Minutes later they put two girls next to us, but they left as another two person table opened up! Decided on the cheesesteak Bennie. It was super good. The potatoes were seasoned well but have to agree with other Yelpers that they were lukewarm.

    French toast
    Brett N.

    Why 5 stars? Because the pre-game breakfast hit the spot. --- --- --- Staying downtown for a Lions game, I couldn't think of a better place to visit than this. We were sure to get there right at 8am to avoid having to wait, and we ended up being the 2nd or 3rd table sat. I ordered a salmon benedict and it hit the spot very solidly. But the star of the show for me was the french toast, which was equal parts delicious, without being too heavy at the same time. I usually avoid french toast at restaurants just because it can put me straight in a food coma, but this was light and fresh. I see why Dime Store's reviews are so strong and I'd happily return again.

    Homemade sausage hash

    Never a bad meal at dime store. Good service and delicious food. I love their home made fries.

    Dirty chai tea latte
    Abbigale T.

    Didn't get any photos this time, but stopped in on Labor Day! The café is connected to a large city building (I think apartments are above), which made it a little tricky to find if you are not paying attention to the window sign. We came in around 8:25 and were told we'd have a 15-20 minute wait. We got sat at 8:50. I ordered a dirty chai tea latte - super tasty, though for nearly $10 I expected it to come in something larger than a small mug. The Belgian waffle was solid, and the corned beef hash was delicious with lots of veggies mixed in. It had a fresh twist that I really enjoyed. I also tried the biscuits and gravy, which came with a sausage/bacon style gravy. That combo was a little odd for us and not really a hit. Overall, good food and worth a try, but will try something different next time I'm in town!

    Dime Store is an establishment that serves breakfast / brunch / lunch. There are 2 locations and the one visited is in Detroit, Michigan. Dime Store is the 1st of this review series that I am writing on places that was visited during a recent trip to Michigan. This was definitely a wonderful Mother's Day Weekend! Thank you to Dime Store for having us start this trip off the right way w/ great food, cool ambiance & lovely service. From the moment we walked in, the tantalizing aromas of the various Breakfast / Brunch dishes was heavenly! We could not wait to view the menu & order - lol. Dime Store was buzzing w/ good energy of happy customers. We were seated immediately. Nadia was fantastic, attentive & was so patient w/ us as we had several questions regarding menu items. Nadia proceeded to provide service w/ a smile and we were appreciative. We ordered the following food & cocktails - 1.) Malted Belgian Waffle w/ Fresh Fruit (Strawberries & Bananas) 2.) Brioche French Toast w/ Fresh Fruit (Strawberries & Bananas) 3.) Bacon - Delightfully Crispy 4.) Scrambled Eggs w/ Spinach & Cheddar Cheese. 5.) Peach Mimosas - bronconess peach bubbly, w/ orange juice. 6.) Lafayette Lemonade Cocktail - vodka, housemate Lemonade, w/ fresh mint. 7.) Orange Creamsicle Cocktail - vodka, vanilla cream, orange juice, w/ mayo orange pop. When I say everything was absolutely delicious, I mean it. Everything we ate was fabulous. Special Thanks to Dime Store Manager Jeff & to Server Nadia for being so kind, hospitable, & for providing excellent customer service. Thanks to all of the hardworking Dime Store Staff! I will enjoy my Dime Store Souvenir Mug! Dime Store in Detroit is open 8am - 3pm everyday, except Wednesday. eatdimestore.com @eatdimestore

    Chai Latte
    Zackery F.

    I must admit, I was a bit disappointed that they didn't offer a "basic" breakfast option like Eggs & Toast, which is a staple for me. So, I decided to venture out and try something different. I opted for homemade granola and Greek yogurt, accompanied by a side of potatoes. I was thoroughly pleased with the results! The seasoning they use on the potatoes is quite good and unique. The best part for me was undoubtedly the drinks. They had incredible coffee, and the chai they made my wife looked picture perfect. Another plus was that we were in a bit of a hurry, and despite being quite crowded, the service was fast and friendly. If you're downtown Detroit and looking for a great breakfast spot, this is a good choice.

    My omelette meal
    Jazmine L.

    Great experience and good food! I was in Detroit for 48 hours and kept seeing this as a must visit. When we got there there was quite a wait, but we got lucky and got seated at the bar so we didn't have to wait long. The server was fast and friendly. The food was really good too! I loved the atmosphere.

    Brioche French Toast
    Lexi M.

    We popped in here for breakfast and wow! They had a good cocktail brunch menu, amazing food menu and local coffee! The server was hilarious and so nice. We ordered waffles and the brioche French toast and both were delicious.

    Couldn't agree more
    Joanna M.

    The front entrance is in the building and you can't enter directly from the street. There is a discount on parking in the Kennedy center parking. There is metered street parking around the building. We went early on a week day so there was plenty of seating available however on a weekend there can be a wait. It is t a huge location but there is efficient use of space for seating. There is lots of natural light. The menu focuses on bennys, hashes and some sweet treats like French toast. The service was efficient. I got 2 over easy eggs, chicken sausage and potatoes. The chicken sausage was really good. The potatoes had a little too much paprika for me but the hollandaise sauce was really good and helped balance the paprika. There isn't any gluten free options for toast or otherwise.

    Ask the Community - Dime Store

    Can this business accommodate a party of 10 for brunch on the weekend?

    No, I’m sorry, we are a very small restaurant with limited seating options for large parties and can only accommodate parties of up to 8 people.

    Do they have bottomless mimosas?

    Hi Natalie! No, I'm sorry, we don't offer bottomless mimosas. (They're actually illegal in Michigan.) However, we do have one of the largest mimosas you'll find around town at 12 oz., as well as a mimosa pitcher option.

    Do they take reservations?

    No it's first come first serve

    What is the average wait time for a party of 5?

    Best time to go is within 20-30 mins of opening as you will not have to wait. Wait time steadily increases from that point and peaks at about 1.5 hours. I always go shortly after opening and have never had to wait.

    Any good veggie options?

    Hi Alekhya! You can find our menu on our website - http://www.eatdimestore.com/menu/ - along with several veggie options. Many dishes can also be made vegetarian with some small modifications. Our servers/chefs are happy to offer recommendations… Read more

I purchased gift cards during Covid to help support local restaurants during shut down, and I was pleasantly surprised that we could still use them in 2026! We had tried to use them in 2022, but were told the restaurant was small and could not accommodate our party of 8, even early on a Sunday. Fast forward 4 years! We made a reservation for a party of 4. It would've been nice to know the restaurant was on the second floor with no elevator, but perhaps that is my lack of inquiry. We were warmly greeted. Our server was absolutely fantastic! She made wonderful recommendations, and our meal was delicious! We had the crab dip, cornbread muffins, fried chicken and catfish entrees with yams and collard greens. Our family is from the South (KY, NC, TN, VA, MS, & AL) and we cook southern food on a regular basis. The yams were perfectly cooked and sweetened. The collard greens had just enough density, not runny or too salty. YUM!!! The chicken was tasty and moist. Catfish was seasoned and prepared perfectly and absolutely delicious also. Served with Frank's! We finished it off with the skillet cookie dessert, shared by all. A great way to end a really wonderful meal. The restaurant wasn't busy, so food service could've been a little faster, but we enjoyed a leisurely early dinner. My only other comment is that with glass top tables, you almost have to use Windex when tables turn over. The water streaks on all the glass top just make it look more like a greasy spoon or diner and does not do justice to the great service or the quality of the food. I don't usually do catfish at home, so we will be back for more!

From the second you walk in, it's obvious this place isn't just another bar -- it's a neighborhood hangout with serious personality.

The menu is packed with attention-grabbing comfort bar food that goes way beyond typical pub grub -- think flavorful sandwiches, crispy fries, and dishes that pair insanely well with a cold drink. One of the best parts? Wednesday night trivia. It's the kind of event that turns a midweek night into a destination night. Trivia kicks off in the evening and runs until the fun's done, complete with drink specials (like discounted pitchers and fun cocktails) and a crowd that's all about playing hard and laughing harder. Whether you're a regular trivia team or just looking to make new friends, it's a blast and a perfect reason to mark your calendar every week. The drinks lineup here is solid too -- from craft beers on tap to creative cocktails -- and the bartenders know what they're doing whether you're asking for something classic or bold.
