In the past few months I have been doing A LOT of coffee drinking, so I thought I would share my top five favorite places in Detroit to catch a brew or two.<\/p>\n

1. MADCAP – 1413 Farmer St<\/p>\n

MADCAP recently opened in the Shinola Hotel downtown and hails from Grand Rapids, where they roast and serve their coffee. My favorite drink at MADCAP is the affogato – it’s an espresso shot poured over ice cream – what’s not to love?<\/p>\n

2. Dessert Oasis Coffee – 1220 Griswold St<\/p>\n

Dessert Oasis is on Griswold Street – it is surprisingly large, yet intimate place – one of my favorite places to get work done. They are in-house roasters who got their start in 2009.\u00a0My favorite drink at Dessert Oasis is the Chai Tea Latte – the smoothest one in the city.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

3. The Urban Bean Co. – 200 Grand River Ave<\/p>\n

The Urban Bean Co. is a very unique space in downtown, a double story, floor to ceiling glass, retro building. There is honestly nothing cooler than stepping foot inside! This visit I got a Harney & Sons Earl Grey Tea.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

4. Detroit Sip – 7420 W McNichols Rd<\/p>\n

Detroit Sip officially opened in November of 2017, just up the road from my alma mater University of Detroit Mercy. Jevona Watson, the owner, is also a Build Institute Graduate, just like me! At Detroit Sip I have two favorites – the Livernois Latte and the Ford Frappe.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

5. Narrow Way Cafe – 19331 Livernois<\/p>\n

Narrow Way is also close to my alma mater, on the Avenue of Fashion. They have a beautiful shop, full of vibrant and involved employees. While it isn’t coffee, my favorite drink is the Peach Ring Smoothie, it’s the perfect amount of Lime and Peach.<\/p>\n
