Today we are breaking down our top 3 cafes in Detroit, MI. Detroit is a historical and innovative city that was once the hub for modern industry in the United States. Since it’s hay-day the city has fallen on hard times, but has seen a resurgence in recent years through its food and real-estate scenes. We love this city for its young and energetic vibe, thriving arts scene, and farm-to-table foodie culture.
