Atomic Coffee is one of my go-to coffee shops in Royal Oak! I love the cozy atmosphere of the area and if you go during the day, it's usually not too busy. I found that later in the day, it can be a bit difficult to get seating for more than two people, but there are plenty of benches around the area, which makes it a convenient location. The employees are always responsive, and give great recommendations for food and beverages! Today, I got a spinach feta pastry and, my personal favorite, the cardamom rose latte. The pastry had a great texture and flavor to it, especially when warmed up. The cardamom rose latte was superb as always. read more

I was originally leaning towards a 4/5, specifically regarding the espresso which I would rate at an 8.6/10. The factors pushing it into the 5's include the location in DT Royal Oak, and the indoor space itself which has three distinct spaces to choose from that all have their own nice vibe with elevation change, adding to a more 3D interior feel. Along with that the berry lemonade was refreshing and had the correct balance of sweet and sour. read more

Atomic is a RO staple, open late so that any work or meetings or conversations can happen with your cup of coffee in front of you. With that being said, it is always packed and fighting for a table with isn't really my favorite thing to do. They do have some fun flavors and would recommend a latte as their coffee tastes a little bit burnt. I got a matcha the last time i went and it was made with a lot of care and they didn't overpower with too much sweetness read more

To be honest, I haven't been to Atomic Coffee in a while, but any time I've been, it's been great! They have a large menu ranging from traditional lattes, cappuccinos, teas, hot chocolates, smoothies, juices, food items, and more. I've had their hot chocolate a few times in the past, and it's always delicious. I've also had the peachy keen smoothie which was so refreshing. One thing I love about this place is the atmosphere here. It's a great place to hang out, study, or to go for a casual coffee date. I need to make a trip back soon! read more

This is a fun place to visit, especially if you want an experience away from a big chain coffee shop. We like to visit local shops and we have actually been here a few times. This is the first time I remember actually stopping in and staying awhile (or else it has literally been too long and I don't remember). We visited on a Sunday afternoon and it was fairly crowded but not too much that we could not get a seat. Good people watching place and good place to socialize or study. We ordered a mocha and vanilla honey latte. I had the latte and it was so good, smooth, and creamy, it actually tasted like a golden graham cracker in the best possible way, like a comfort drink. They have a little bit of food, like some sandwiches and croissants. The croissants look really good especially the plain and the pain au chocolat. I also asked about their lemonade, which sounds good, they have regular, berry, and lavender. I am very curious to try some. I am also curious about how good their affegado it, sounds enticing on a future visit. read more

Not many options available for July 4th, so it wasn't surprising to see this place packed. Trendy corner coffee shop serving coffee and a full menu. Semi long line that showed some time to decide what we wanted. Was going to get both food and coffee, but they said it'll take at least 30min no matter what we ordered for food. Opted instead to just have the "Grizzly Bear" drink ($6.75). There was nothing that explained what it was, so went for it blindly. Basically it's a variation of a mocha, lots of ice, may have had more coffee than usual. Not too bad, but not substantial enough for the price. Obviously since it was a busy day, items did take some time to come out. May be better on a normal morning. read more

I also got an OG Burrito wrap for breakfast, so good! The service was decently quick for how busy it was. The interior was very cozy but also work friendly. It was packed but not noisy.

I have been here a few times and it's such a great spot with delicious coffee, and a variety of pastries and food items. The service is great, the staff is helpful and the cafe is clean. It's a good place to get work done, there is a lot of seating available and most of the times I've been here the majority of customers are studying or working. I recently got the mocha with cinnamon and wow it was excellent. The latte art is beautiful, the drink was creamy and the chocolate was rich. This is definitely a go-to spot for hanging out, doing work, and having a great drink and/or pastry. read more

If you're ok with your order probably being wrong and sub par customer service, this place is for you! The taste of the coffee is unmatched! I've never had a bad tasting coffee from here and their options for drinks are plentiful. Their food is also tasty and fresh and I appreciate the variety. Sometimes you have to wait a bit for your order if they're busy but that's understandable. However, they somehow always get the order wrong in some way. Then when you tell them, they're very short with you. I've gone here several times over the years and no matter what worker I interact with I get the same results - not friendly and irritated that they got my order wrong. My friends and family have had the same experiences here and we don't know what it is. Anyways, plenty of seating and they are dog friendly if you like that. Clean place and a good place to try - just don't come with expectations and you'll be happy with your visit. I'm sure I'll be back to visit too read more

I decided to give their house blend drip coffee ($2.50) a try since I didn't want to splurge $5 on a nitro cold brew but it was just OK. There wasn't much of a strong after taste, and it's about average or slightly below in my opinion. My friend did get their honey vanilla latte which she loved along with a pastry. She slurped half of the latte before I even got a chance to take a picture (see below). Maybe lattes are the move here? Definitely willing to give this cafe another try eventually! Great interior and indoor seating! read more

Consistently good coffee and food, equally consistent terrible service and attitude from staff. I always feel like i'm putting them out when I order. And i'm ordering the item exactly as it is on the menu. Whenever I suggest atomic, my boyfriend always sighs because he knows it's an ordeal to go there and feel like you are inconveniencing the person taking your order. I will keep coming back for the breakfast burrito and honey vanilla latte but i'm annoyed I like them so much because the experience is so sub par. It's a good spot to work and has a nice feel to it with ample space and outlets and you don't feel on top of each other but the service just really knocks this place down a few pegs. read more

As someone who travels often for work I make it my business to find quaint, unique, or comfortable coffee shops where one is able to sit down and work for their computer while drinking a cup of dealers choice, within the visiting city. for this, I always come to Yelp as they tend to be the most verifiable, and honest. This is now my third time at Atomic Coffee and can say without a doubt, it will remain my favorite. I cannot comment on their food selection as I have never ordered, however this time around I have a delightful 12 oz. hot cocoa with oak milk. to was both delicious, and comforting to drink while working and enjoying the gloomy. cloudy weather outside. Give Atomic Coffee a try, I'm glad I did. read more

The line was quite long but worth waiting. Their latte is good and bright. It has a strong coffee flavor but is not too bitter, harsh, or dry. It is a well-balanced combination between coffee and milk. They have many outlets if you'd like to work here but a bit crowded indoor. They do have many outdoor seats without outlets. Personally, it is not clean enough so I took one star off. It might be because of the dingy lighting.

The A in Atomic Coffee stands for AMAZING! I've had Atomic Coffee bookmarked on Yelp for what feels like years. On a whim, my boyfriend and I stopped in recently since we were in the area. I appreciated the large sign on the front door due to Covid restrictions (wear a mask, don't find a seat before ordering, etc) There was a clear and direct flow to their system, which is also so appreciative. Too many times have I gone into another coffee shoppe and it's just absolute chaos, despite having to social distance. Coffee shoppes are very, very overwhelming to me. What I loved about this one was their menu was straight to the point and their online menu was also current and updated. I ordered the iced honey vanilla latte based on the good reviews. It was kindly made quickly and the barista was quite kind and welcoming. The drink? AMAZING. I probably had a dream about it last night. For the price point of over $5 I definitely felt it was worth. Very sweet, but not in an overpowering kind of way. I'm not a hot coffee girl, so this iced latte was a win! My boyfriend is not a coffee fan, but he told me he would love to come back again to just relax and hang out. Atomic Coffee makes the place cozy and relaxing. Everyone was spaced out and it was quite clean too! They also offer smoothies, juices, and other baked delights. Don't walk ... run to Atomic Coffee! You won't be disappointed. read more

The pizza was excellent! Tasty and filling. Overall a great place to connect with friends and try unusual but delicious beers.

This is an order at the counter spot, so you grab a menu, place your order up front, and they give you a buzzer when your food is ready. I ordered a drink and the chicken Caesar wrap, which came out to $21. The chicken was grilled really nicely and had a lot of flavor. The wrap also comes with a jalapeño Caesar dressing, which initially threw me off since I am not a spicy person, but it ended up being delicious and not spicy at all. I stayed until about 5:30 and more families started coming in and there were quite a few kids around. There is a small playpen area for kids that is not padded, and watching a two year old climb around with no adult looked like a lawsuit waiting to happen. Overall, I had a good experience. The food was solid, the vibe was nice, and I would definitely come back again.

Smashburger. Cheeseburger and fries.

Wellll, let me tell you. I thought I registered for the event at the Ferndale location, and had…read morebeen looking forward to visiting this bakery... So, I didn't register, but of course I made a purchase well, purchases. I bought 1 oatmeal raisin cookie, 1 chocolate cupcake, 2 Blake's donuts annnnd 1 scoop of butter pecan ice cream in a waffle cone. It was very nice when I walked in, the space was clean, the deliciousness was beautifully displayed. It was good to see so many of Blake's Apple Orchard items for sale here. It was kind of quiet, well after the family (father? and 2 children left) nice place to sit and enjoy your goodies, scroll, etc. When I came on Yelp to write my review, I noticed there's one in Grosse Pointe, MI. Glad to know there's one closer that I can return to visit. Ohh, I almost forgot, the ice cream was Really good, I didn't taste like a diet fail at all. The Blake's donut, well you know... aren't they all good? The cupcake was light and the icing was perfect. Now, let me tell you about their oatmeal raisin cookie (my favorite by the way) Man, was that cookie good. All of the goodies were excellent. Nothing was too sweet or off. I really enjoyed everything purchased. You gotta go!!!

We purchased a mix of items to sample two different types of cheesecake, some ini cupcakes cookies and of course the pup cake. My fur baby devoured it. He can be a little picky so that speaks volumes!! We were the only ones in the shop on this super cold, snowy winter day but the service was still impeccable!!

Nobody had to care in the world of the line of people waiting to order while these two ladies were standing at the register, just talking as if there's nobody behind them.. I ended up walking out without coffee. I came here to try their new cloud drinks. Honestly, I don't think I'm coming back, but I will definitely check out another location.

I went to Atomic last week when The Office Café in 4th Street closed for the night. I asked the barista to fill my empty tea with hot water. She said yes, then backtracked and said she couldn't give me hot water because my to-go tea cup was from somewhere else. I asked her if she would fill it once because she already said yes, then she copped MAJOR attitude with me and rolled her eyes at me!! I complained to the manager, who was about 20 years old, and he quickly defended her saying that "she's right," they couldn't give me hot water- even though I was complaining about the eye roll, not the water! I used to like coming here to study, but the staff has gotten worse and the place gets way too loud to study. It's more of a social hangout than a study spot. I'll stick with The Office Café. read more

The place is cool, but not worth it in my opinion. Definitely a good place to hangout, but I've had better coffee in RO for way cheaper, too. I tried the nitro cold brew because everyone raves about it. I'm a huge cold brew fan, but I didn't really get this. It's expensive, and frankly wasn't worth it. Purely based on taste, it was about average, but tasted worse to me because I had to pay so much for it. I've only gone once to try it out and likely won't be back. read more

Love this place! Staff very friendly. Crowd always laid back and the shop has good vibes. Exceptional Service! I ordered a hot tea and asked for something that wasn't on menu (wanted fresh ginger chopped up and added to it. They did it and wouldn't even let me pay extra). Hats off to Cameron, Tony and Staff! Keep up the great work. Will be definitely making this place one of my regular hangouts. read more

Tell your customers you charge a fee of 3% of the bill for credit cards. Don't rely on the piddly small sized sign off to the side of the register. Every time a credit card is presented your employees should easily say we charge a fee. It's crap and you know it. read more
