“ The Awake cafe in Detroit definitely kept me up and moving. I enjoyed the aesthetic of the establishment. It provided ample seating of various varieties as well as a friendly staff and variety of merchandise options. I enjoyed the forest Avenue sandwich which offered some delicious pickles on the side. The staff was so welcoming, helping me determine which drink to purchase for my first visit. This café is a beautiful option to study meet friends or enjoy the music. There was free parking both in front of the establishment but also across the street. I would like to note this is street parking so on busy days it may be hard to find. I also enjoyed at the entrance they offered a variety of local events and vendors advertisements. Another amazing facet is the fact that there are outdoor seating areas for you to enjoy your coffee on a warm summer day. Check this location out if you are in Detroit near MGM Grand area. ”

“ Great atmosphere and excellent coffee and food! I particularly enjoyed their yogurt parfait, which was layered with honey/granola/fruit bits and made with care - not just a bunch of toppings on a cup of yogurt as many "parfaits" are made. ”

“ Love it here!! Service is friendly, quick, and they even brought my food out to my table. It can be hard to tell at some places- but I believe the baristas here are pretty good. No loud milk steamer mishaps- very smooth milk texturizing on the hot lattes I've had. Not to mention the food! I had a breakfast sandwich with sausage, egg and cheese on an everything bagel and was impressed. The prices are a little cheaper than some other establishments so I was nervous it would show in the food- but it was delicious!! Great place to come for a chill time with buddies or even quiet work or studying. Music is on the quieter side and vibe is relaxed. There are also two rooms- the main hot/cold bar room upon entrance has seating and also an additional only seating room with a large bookshelf free to use during your stay. Facilities and entire guest area was very clean!! Note: there is no parking lot. This establishment is located on Third St in Midtown and if you can walk or use transit I'd recommend it. It's likely you will not get street parking right in front of the business ”

“ Despite frequenting the area, this was my first time here. I met a friend here to catch up and have coffee. It is a quaint and cozy space. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. After asking a few questions about my coffee experiences and preferences, I ordered a Mocha latte at their recommendation. I found the handwritten note on the sleeve to be a special touch. ”

“ PRODUCTS. Copetic. Very good scone with cream cheese. Tender and flavorful. Daily coffee was average. SERVICE. Friendly! Accommodating with providing cream on side for coffee. AMBIANCE. CUTE. Quiet like a college library. Studious. Lots of outlets for charging devices. Artsy decor. Plants brightened the place. Seats about 30? Homeless loitering around outside. OF NOTE. Street parking in DETROIT. So, park at your own risk and hopefully your car won't be ticketed, stolen or broken into, even if you have insurance. Overall... Good. ”

“ I tried the Frosted Oatmeal Cookie Latte and I really liked it. I like how you could taste the flavors and sweetness but it didn't drown out the coffee flavor. It didn't turn the coffee into a dessert. I got an everything bagel. I like to drown my bagels in cream cheese so i got an extra on the side but i think it's convenient that they put it on there for you so someone who may be on the move, trying to get to work or school can just open it and start eating without the hassle. Customer service was good. It's such a nice space to do homework in or even sit in the back area and read a book. I really like this spot. I'm glad I was able to check them out. ”

“ My friend and I stopped by the Awake Cafe to pick up breakfast before heading to Belle Isle to eat it. The cafe had a warm and friendly feel to it so we decided to sit down and stay awhile. The staff was super nice and accommodating. We asked if there was outdoor seating. At the time, there wasn't, but before we left, they'd set up tables and chairs outside so people could enjoy the weather. I thought the staff's quick response to customers' requests was admirable. The coffee was well-made and delicious. Totally worth the trip. I had a toasted Asiago bagel with cream cheese, which was wonderful. My friend ordered the Ford Ave. breakfast sandwich. She swears it's the best breakfast sandwich she's ever eaten. This is really saying something since this gal eats ALL her meals out. I also thought the pricing on the breakfast sandwiches was very reasonable. If you're looking for a cafe with great food and coffee, a chill atmosphere, and friendly staff, check out Awake Cafe. ”

“ Stopped for a coffee and cinnamon roll. Coffee good. The cinnamon roll was good. They were nice enough to warm it up, and skip the icing (which can make it too sweet for me). It is a nice vibe with tall ceilings, and soft indie music playing in the background. There are Sayings are posted throughout. There is lots of seating with a counter, couches, tables and a fireplace area. Good space for working or meeting someone. It was not busy on this Saturday later in the morning. ”

“ Nice place to work with ample seating and enough outlets and extensions for laptop and phone chargers. The music is not loud at all. It's typically very quiet inside but it does get a bit busy during lunch hours. The ingredients taste so fresh, the coffee and the food are always sooo good. I highly recommend trying their cinnamon roll! My favorite drink to order is an iced latte with caramel and coconut syrup -- not too sweet, and it tastes amazing. Other food items I recommend: the Willis avenue, the Woodward avenue, their spicy chipotle breakfast sandwich. Only downside is that they close early, but they do open pretty early for folks who want to grab a quick coffee and breakfast sandwich before work. ”
