Service is excellent and the interior atmosphere is large and spacious. I believe this is one of two locations in Michigan, and the origin story (they are from Pittsburg I believe) occurred when the founder was making fudge in his basement and felt like he was doing a chocolate moonshine operation. Check it out!

When I went in, it was dead as it's been since the store opened and people realized it was…read moreextremely expensive hot chocolate. The service was a multi-pronged failure. A member of the corporate staff "located in Pennsylvania" threw her hands up to avoid a sample sheet I was handing back, and she proceeded to holler about why there isn't a trash can for sample sheets if they really are sampling that much. after waiting at LEAST 15 minutes for this to end, the "owner's wife" (who refused to serve or acknowledge me despite being very cordial and patient and decided to talk to some random non paying screenager about her silly bandz) to hunt down some poor minimum wage food service worker to put some pre crushed chocolate chunks (against the freshly crushed chocolate promise on the menu!) into my overpriced diabetes slurry that will eventually be used to fix the dang roads. All in all a waste of time a waste of money but if you have about an hour to blow you might get to try the mango habanero fudge which was ok. Overall 4/10

I was researching local kombucha makers with a storefront and Neu Kombucha was the only business…read morethat came up. As it is a small business, there is usually only one person working the front counter. Sometimes there is a wait and I'll just go to another store and come back a little later when the line has shortened. Most of the time there is no wait at all. I've tried the sparkling and still water, but my favorite is the kombucha. At first, I would sample different flavors by buying a 12 oz. cup. Soon after I bought a 16 oz. bottle that I can return to be refilled for $3. I recommend the Cardamom Cream, Blueberry Mint, and Lavender Lemonade flavors. The store also sells vegan snacks. I like Vegan Rob's Turmeric Crisps and Nakee Butter. Neu Kombucha's store has become the main reason why I have started visiting Downtown Farmington more often. I like the idea of supporting a local small business rather than buying kombucha at a grocery store.

We first discovered BonBonBon at a hip Valentine's craft fair at the Majestic Theater in 2019 and…read morewe've been hooked ever since. Their chocolate creations are not only delicious, but creative and unlike any other treats out there. Back in the day, it was not unusual for us to make a 40 minute drive into Hamtramck or Detroit to get a Bon fix, so you can imagine how excited we were as they opened more storefronts across Metro Detroit. We recently discovered the newest location in downtown Birmingham and it is just as cute and the staff was just as friendly as we've come to expect from B3! This is a business that you can feel really good about supporting. Not only is their product top notch, but their practices prioritize quality, sustainability ,community and inclusion. It has been fun watching their tremendous growth over the last seven years and cheering them on from the sidelines!

The 70% dark chocolate is some of the best you will ever try! Our host and owner is so lovely, she was patient with the beginner questions and offered nothing but her extensive knowledge which is invaluable. A small tight production, you can see the care and attention to detail. They are the only chocolate make in the greater Detroit area, most others are chocolatiers who fashion their good from premade chocolates that are laden with sugar. With Dwaar you will taste the notes of the chocolate. And they should sell those roasted cacao seeds, they are delis and addictive! For high quality dark search them out!

Dark chocolate is the least of my favorite chocolate variety, but after having a bite of DWAAR…read morechocolate I developed a deeper appreciation .. more so having after gaining knowledge on how the dark chocolate bar was originally made of ... from cacao beans imported from a country like Ecuador. Tons of dried beans are imported to Michigan, which is then roasted, shells removed, grind, mixed and tempered to shape as a bar, bonbon and other holiday shapes. Each bar individual bar is priced a bit higher than the commercial chocolate late because DWAAR chocolate has a higher percentage of cocoa and much darker in color. The chocolate maker / owner of DWAAR chocolate is very passionate about her product. Be assured the she creates the highest quality of dark chocolate you can find only Michigan. The owner received an award and was featured in magazines, online and tv. I wish in the near future she will be able to mass produce and supply chocolate discs that can be melted and used as coating in fruits, chips, apples and pretzels. Must try the so-called sipping chocolate which is 100% dark.

It always pains me to leave a somewhat disappointed review but I really think it's a business duty…read moreto be very transparent about what they're selling. I ordered two drinks, one mango smoothie for a friend and they really liked it. I almost ordered the same but thought hey I'll try this raspberry energy drink as it looks good. I wasn't 100% what all that entails as I thought it would just be some in house made drink. I come to find out all it is, is a Red Bull with some raspberry flavoring. I guess I partly blame myself for even ordering smoothies/drinks online in the first place because you don't get to ask questions but nowhere online did it say I was ordering a Red Bull if that was the case I would've got something else I literally had a Red Bull in my fridge, but I thought I was trying something different so it just felt like a waste of money when they could've explicitly stated that on the menu when ordering, I guess you live in you learn.

It took almost 30 mins for them to make it. The staff is not very friendly. I asked if the pomegranate juice was real and he pointed to a dispenser with juice in it.

This is the wholesale bakery counterpart of Cannelle Patisserie in Birmingham and downtown Detroit…read more I've tried several of their croissants at coffee shops in the Ann Arbor area. Since the ones I've tried were baked earlier before being transported, they probably weren't the freshest and consequently were soft and not flaky at all. So I wouldn't be surprised if the products at Cannelle Patisserie were significantly more enjoyable due to freshness. But for Golden Wheat at least I agree with another review that the items I've tried here were "not bad but not awesome either". The croissant dough here is chewy, denser, quite sweet, and not the most buttery in flavor (the aftertaste is more buttery). I've probably liked the plain croissant and the zaatar croissant the most. The zaatar croissant I tried had raw dough in the center and the outside was too dry, but the flavor was good and there was a lot of zaatar swirled throughout. I didn't like the other items I tried. The pain au chocolat (aka chocolate croissant) only has one strip of chocolate, as mentioned in other reviews, and it's very soft chocolate, not a high quality bar. The cinnamon roll is on the bready side (think Asian bakery bread but denser and harder) and the filling isn't super cinnamony, but it's also not overly sweet; personally I prefer the ones from Crust. The almond croissant is very soft and flat, but it felt a bit like I was eating raw dough, and texturally the dough and filling felt sort of similar.

Issues: for whatever reason they record your drivers license number on your receipt and in their computer system when you use a credit card. Maybe due to fraud or something else. It is not clearly stated that they record your identification but just they need to see it. I gave the owner my card, he swiped it and the proceeded to scan my driver's license into the register and it saved on the receipt. I immediately asked him to cancel/void the transaction because I didn't want my license number stored anywhere. I paid cash for the purchase, which I should have in the first place. He said the charge didn't go through, but it showed pending on my credit card app. He said to call if it posted. Fast forward 2 weeks later and I'm looking at my account with the charge present. I call immediately and the owner brushed me off with call my credit card company because it's nothing he can do. He stated it wouldn't go through because the transaction wasn't completed and then said he did what he needs to on his end. Customer service is poor and he stays in business because of the vast selection and acceptance of EBT as a payment option. I'd never go back to patronize this business. The response was so nonchalant when I purchased and when I needed the credit card issue resolved. Now I'm disputing the charge with my credit card company. Taking credit cards if you have to maintain personal information in such a manner blows my mind. I don't believe in scamming and I also don't agree with my driver's license number being printed on my receipt and archived the manner that was attempted.
