The Maurice salad was huge and very tasty. Price was fine BUT $5 for a cup of coffee that was never refilled is outrageous.

Great food. Great people. Owner is top notch any of the bennies for savory. any of the waffles or pancakes for sweet!!

The avocado toast was just okay. It was more like a basic smashed guacamole and didn't taste very fresh. The fruit on the side was actually really fresh, but for the price I expected the toast itself to be a lot better. Service was a little slow, but our server was really nice so that helped. I came during a lunch rush and was able to get seated right away, which was a plus. Overall, I would probably come back and try something different because the location is nice, but I wasn't a fan of what I ordered this time. read more

The Hudson Cafe - Smashed Avocado Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Troy, Michigan

Breakfast here was eggs Benedict for me and the Triplq triple omelet (think eggs, hash browns, meat, meat and more meat) for my husband. He was happy with the taste, really impressed with the portion size (first time I've seen him unable to finish one) My food was also perfect and seasoned well. Our waiter was very nice and the food arrived quickly. The only damper of Hudson cafe is the volume. Because of the building design, it's super loud and sometimes difficult to have a conversation. We went on Sunday morning, before the church crowd was out (around 10:15) but reservations are recommended anytime. By the time we left the line was out the door. Better to make the reservations and not need them, then need and not have them. read more

Wait wasn't long. Very clean establishment. Waitress we had was nice and attentive. I got the Chipotle chicken wrap with waffle fries and a Very Berry Mimosa. The chicken wrap was tasty but the chicken needs more seasoning without all the other components of the wrap the chicken is flavorless. Those waffle fries are fried to perfection! Crispy and crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. Oh and yes their ranch is good too, not everyone has good tasting ranch. Mimosa didn't disappoint. You get a little cute bottle of Prosecco. read more

The Hudson Cafe - Chipotle Chicken Wrap - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Troy, Michigan

the only thing good about this restaurant was our server. The food was mediocre at best . the pancakes were spongy and served with log cabin corn syrup. the cubed potatoes were dry and looked like they were pre cut, possibly frozen. Way too loud. I could barely hear my table guests. read more

Good brunch spot because you can make reservations ahead of time! The food was pretty good. Lots of options. The apple walnut stuffed French toast is pictured. read more

I keep trying with this place lol. The croquettes are not appetizing at all. Shrimp and grits are very good, but made with Cajun spices and has a kick. (Don't remember this on the menu description) Spicy isn't my thing so our waitress remade w/o any issues. read more

The Hudson Cafe - Birthday waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Troy, Michigan

This was my first visit to the Troy MI location. I have only been to the Detroit location, which is situated across when the old Hudson building stood (hence the name). It was a busy Easter Sunday but we had made reservations and for a later time so everyone was just leaving. We did have to wait 10 minutes but it was expected on Easter. It's an open space with high ceilings which makes up for its limited space. Our server got us our drinks and took our orders. I ordered coffee but they don't have flavored creamer and the server didn't offer a flavor shot so I wasn't impressed with my only option of half and half. For my breakfast, I opted for the Red Velvet Pancakes which is my fave from the other location, with a side of bacon. The bacon arrived very warm, which doesn't always happen at brunch joints because they typically make it ahead of time and leave it in a holding pan. The pancakes were not dry, which is nice, but they didn't put any of the cream cheese topping in between the pancakes so I had to ask for extra. Yes, it's very much like a red velvet cupcake when it's all said and done but that's what I like when I want something sweet for brunch. Everyone enjoyed their breakfast choices but nothing really hit home as a stand out. I'm sure we'll return to try out some of the other options. read more

I have visited the Hudson Café's downtown location, but this was my first time at the Troy location. The roasted beet salad was very filling and full of flavor, and the side of pita bread was fluffy and so good! I thought the portions were very reasonable for the pricing. My friend ordered the eggs Benedict and said it was delicious! Our server, Heather, was attentive and accommodating, and was very knowledgeable about gluten-free options for my friend, which was so reassuring. The menu has such great variety and I want to try so many things, including the gluten-free berry French toast next time! The atmosphere is quaint and beautifully decorated, and the restaurant was very clean! read more

One of my favorite Black owned spots! Food is delicious! The bartenders are lovely and the atmosphere is diverse - just how I like it!

I've eaten at the location downtown many years ago, and haven't been back because it's just so far. When I heard they were opening one up in Troy, I was excited because it's way closer and I can visit here more often. Since it's been a minute since I've eaten here, I had to re-acquaint myself with the menu. But, I do remember having a great experience at the one downtown, so I walked in mostly knowing what to expect. Well, mostly, sort of. I chose to come in on a Thursday morning instead of a weekend day to avoid any crowds. I read and heard that reservations are preferred which kind of put me off visiting sooner because I wasn't interested in booking ahead of time. So, this morning I finally said what the heck, tried to book a reservation and it wouldn't let me! Kind of annoying and confusing, but whatever. So, I drove over to see if they were even open on this nice Thursday and they were. thank goodness! They said the reservations are usually for busier times like weekend brunches and such. good to know! I reviewed the menu at home and was already set on what dish I wanted, but I love the selection of food they have here. They're a breakfast & lunch place, which is totally my scene. I wanted to try one of their more signature dishes, so I ordered the Huevos Rancheros. This is my favorite breakfast dish WHEN DONE CORRECTLY. Most places don't make it very good and it comes out tasting and looking like slop. NOT HERE! The hudson cafe makes it right! The only other place in town that cooks it well is Jagged Fork. and now Hudson Cafe! It came out in a skillet and was absolutely fabulous. I literally made a huge mess eating it. Thank goodness it was early, hardly anyone was there and I was eating alone. I got through most of it and had a few extra potatoes leftover at the end. They use green sauce here instead of a red hot sauce like Jagged Fork does, but it still tastes absolutely fantastic. It's a very hearty serving, so go here hungry when eating. Portions are worth the price. I paid by card at my table which was lovely. My breakfast was about $15, but I think they charged me extra since it rang up at $16.72 or something. I left a big tip, so my total was a little over $20. They also have mimosa's here along with a wonderful drink list both alcoholic and non alcoholic which is nice. I am so glad this place is here, and I'll be returning in the future. read more

After driving by this place a million times I finally decided to drop in for brunch with a friend. We came on a Saturday and it was pretty busy, but that was to be expected. I put my name down on the list but the wait was only like 10-15 minutes so overall not bad at all for a packed restaurant. I attempted to try to go for a healthy option, but all bets were off when I saw the cinnamon roll pancakes. They were delicious and not too sweet. In addition we ordered a bagel, yogurt bowl, scrambled eggs and grits with cheese. The food was lovely and the portion sizes are very good. You may find yourself asking for a to go box. Our sever was super kind and attentive as well which was a plus. In Addition, I parked in the structure as it's more than likely going to be your best bet as it has lots of spaces and trying to park directly in front of the restaurant seems to always be full. Overall tho I really liked my meal here and would love to come back. read more

My colleague and I decided to visit here for a late lunch and was DISAPPOINTED. Food: 4 - the food is pretty decent. We had the velvet pancakes, the chicken wrap, chicken and waffles and a few sides. In general, it was crispy where needed, seasoned well enough, and savory. I would recommend any of these items. Ambience: 1 - The scene was loud and noisy and difficult to hold a decent conversation. Service: 2 - 1/2 through our lunch, the server brought us our bill. In addition, they started racking chairs on the tables surrounding us and literally was telling us to "leave quickly". OVERALL: 2 In general, I will not likely be returning any time soon. The overall experience felt rushed and my patronage felt under appreciated. read more

I can say this place is the variety of food offerings. Omelets, pancakes and everything in between. Gives a lot of options to cover the bases for everyone. Have tried both this location in Troy as well as the original one in Detroit. I usually stick with their veggie omelet, my husband likes their Mexican or their portobello or veggie. Not a stop we frequent if it's just the two of us, as we have preferred spots. read more

Lunch was very good. Now I had the southwest salad with grilled chicken. Chicken portion a little lacking but salad was delicious. I will admit I wanted multiple other items on the menu and they all looked so delicious coming out of the kitchen , but..... I was good and had the salad. Not next time though !!! read more

I tried to make a reservation online, but it didn't go through. Fortunately, we got there early enough (around 9:15 a.m.) that there wasn't a wait & we were seated right away. I know that this is one of the restaurants where there's usually a line. My sister & I were debating between the same things: the portobello omelette & the Thanksgiving omelette, so we got both and shared. She opted for raisin toast & fruit, and I went the unhealthy way: potatoes and pancakes! Lol. The omelettes were both very good, but they seemed a little small. No matter, though, as neither of us finished them. There were TONS of potatoes, and I thought they only gave one pancake, but I had 2. The potatoes were nice & crispy. I just tasted the pancakes because I wasn't hungry enough to actually eat them, but they were very good -- the right amount of sweetness, and I did love the butter that was melting on top. (I usually take the butter off, but a good amount had soaked in before I did that. ) And that they serve the syrup HOT was a lovely touch. I also love that they serve LaVazza coffee (or at least their mugs); such a nice, rich flavor. It's one of my favorites. read more

The Hudson Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Troy, Michigan

I e got there at 10am on a Friday. There was no wait and the place was almost empty. By the time we left, maybe an hour later, it got busy. 5/5 - Service. Glass of water was always filled. They were attentive - took our plates away when finished. 4/5 - Food. Got the Very Berry Stuffed French Toast, which was very good for sweet lovers. It was like eating a berry cheesecake. Added a side of sausage links for a bit of a savory element. My husband got the Bacon Jam Crepe. Too salty for my liking - but the husband enjoyed it. He wished there was more bacon jam on it though. Quality was good. It's quite pricey though. I wish they included more items as part of a combo with their entrees. The place was laid back and good for small groups. read more

Love the downtown branch of the chain, so was delighted to have it open so close to home. Moreover, I LOVE the fact that they take reservations, so no need to worry about long waits for brunch. My go to is the Voodoo Benedict, but I have to say their pancake are also fantastic. Also, the staff is stuffed with total pros and the decor is modern, but not overly trendy. A fantastic local brunch joint in a city with a dearth of locally based restaurants. read more

Quick service, almost too quick. They wanted you out in a hurry. Our server never asked us if we wanted a second drink. Our food came out in 5 minutes after ordering. My girls and I went for Sunday Brunch, aiming to take a few hours, get a lot of catching up in, and the obligatory boozy bevies. I couldn't decide between the Hudson salad and the Irish bennies, so I go both, so I could take leftovers home to the hubby. I loved the idea of the Irish bennies, but it was just too much. Too much corned beef, too much spice, too much aoili, and the muffin was too thick that it got too hard to cut, kind of like it was microwaved. The Hudson salad was everything I remembered, though. The gerkins, green olives, and the dressing were fabulous. I can definitely crave this salad. I dined with 3 others, and no one said great things about their meals, nor did they say "Let's come back here". I may order a Hudson salad as a carry out once or twice a year, but other than than I'm not impressed, or intrigued enough to come back. read more

I've been to the Detroit location a few times & really liked it so I decided to go today w/ my grandma & aunt! The Maurice salad is HUGE & my grandma approved (she said it was similar to the original Hudson's Maurice!!) it was pretty packed at noon on a Wednesday.. lots of background noise & good music. The OJ was refreshing & the bacon jam crepes were unlike anything I've had before. I think next time I'm going to try a sweet dish. The only negative thing I have to say is that there is no handicap parking that is close to the door to the restaurant. There was one spot kinda farther down but it was taken. read more

Nice location. Very busy on Saturday's so pack patience. But they are pretty efficient getting you seated. Bar area available for full service. Food came out promptly and temperature was correct. Service was ok. Mimosa was very good. Son said strawberry lemonade was the best he had. Red velvet waffle was a lil dry but had a good flavor and not too sweet. The warm Syrup helped. Chicken wings were cooked to perfection. Stuffed French toast was very good. Chicken tender were just ok. Tasted like regular frozen nothing special tenders. Added touch...music was great. Overall good experience. Will give back for more. read more

We're big fans of Hudson Cafe downtown, so when we heard that they were opening a location in Troy, we were very excited! After months of waiting, we saw an article in Crain's that said they had opened on Friday, so we were sure to be there on Saturday morning! It was hopping, but we were able to get a walk-in table without waiting too long. I went for the Smashed Avocado Toast and it had a great flavor and the portion was very generous. My wife loves a good Benedict ans she enjoyed the one here. She also ordered the Cinnabunn pancake for us to share and she said it was great (I was too stuffed to have any). My daughter also liked her waffle with bacon. The decor was pretty generic and the staff seemed like they are still getting up to speed, but the food was top notch and that's why we were there...and it's why we'll be back! read more

I've been here twice and have had different food each time. Once for a birthday and another for Mother's Day. The service was good both times and since we had reservations we didn't wait long. Depending on where you're seated you could be really close to another table and overhead the conversation which I don't love. The place is on the smaller side and compact. Although the food is good overall there's nothing new or special on the menu. read more

The food was good and the portion sizes were great compared with the prices. I even had to take home some of the plate as another meal for later on. The service we had was very kind. Some of the tables were too close together, where we could hear the other tables conversations. But after our table neighbors left, it was better. They have many options for sweets/pancakes/french toast which is great for sweet toothed customers! read more

They have a policy of not seating any incomplete parties. I asked why this was the case when there were open tables and was not given a reason. Just, it's company policy. It is definitely their prerogative to have that policy, but at least be able to articulate why. I would have sat down and ordered a glass of wine! I prefer to eat at an establishment that welcomes me as their guest, not making me sit at the door as punishment for having a late lunch companion. I voted with my feet on this occasion and did not stay to eat. I have eaten here before. It is a decent restaurant and convenient to my home, but I don't intend to return. read more

Been to this one and few times and the one downtown. Food was really good. It just be too crowded. But I will be going back.

The Food was amazing and the service was as well. Everything I saw that came out of the kitchen looked awesome. I can't wait to come back!

We made reservations for a Saturday and our table was ready as soon as we arrived.

I went to the Hudson Café today for brunch for my birthday. I had never been there before, but had heard amazing things. I am vegetarian and I was very disappointed to know that even though you have gluten-free and vegetarian items, you don't have almond creamer or oat milk creamer as substitutes. Just almond milk and oat milk, which isn't very good in coffee. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but it is when you're looking forward to a great meal with a good cup of coffee so although you have great variety with your foods, I would definitely get those items to include for your guests. Their service was OK, the restaurant was not that busy and our waiter never came back wants to refill coffee or water. You guys can do better. read more
