    Salad and Turkey melt!

    Loving the relaxed vibe at BasBlue. The food is delicious too. Highly recommend a stop here on beautiful Ferry St just off Woodward.

    Seasonal decor

    Delicious food and cute atmosphere. Healthy & delicious options! Service was fine. Would definitely recommend a visit.

    I'm obsessed with this café. Very rarely do I find a café that ticks all of the boxes for me. There is an equal amount of sitting space for those who want to read and relax and for those who want to have a conversation with friends. My iced autumn spice latte was exceptional. Give the size of my drink, I also think this was a fair price (I spent $21 for the sandwich and latte, plus a tip). The baristas were also incredibly kind and helpful and super conversational which made me feel comfortable coming to a place I had never been to before. Speaking of which, I didn't know what the BasBlue foundation was before I came, and after reading about it, I definitely believe I will be coming back again to support an establishment with a great food and coffee and an even better mission.

    Every event in this Yelp series is better than the next, actually they're all super awesome! I appreciate the work Nina and her team from The Love Experience add to each Monday night! The company is also great! I've made a few friends attending these events! I appreciate the hard work you put into making this happen!

    Curried coconut squash soup
    Kirsten A.

    I love this cafe! Busier and louder around lunch rush, but still has loud music playing even after crowd has dissipated. Despite being busy, the service was still quick and friendly from both the servers and the baristas! Very friendly staff willing to answer questions! I had the chai latte, and, this is why I am knocking down a star. I'd recommend getting something else- not my favorite. However, the curried coconut squash soup is incredible!! Tempted to give 5 stars just because of how delicious this is!! Overall I recommend this cafe if you have a bit more money to spend on food and drink, and prefer a friendly, social environment rather than a quiet space Note: this is a woman's club and upstairs is for members only, but you will have enough space downstairs with tables and couches available

    Turkey Melt
    Greg B.

    I was very impressed for the minute that we walked in through the well-preserved door. We were greeted at the base of the grand staircase by young lady that directs you to the cafe. This building is a women's Club and the upper floors are for Members only or members and their guests. The cafe is quiet comfortable and definitely a beautiful space. I had the turkey melt and quite honestly I expected a small portioned sandwich with a large price. I was pleasantly surprised by a monstrous, tasty, reasonably priced meal. I know things are a little bit more expensive than they used to be pre-covid, so I won't say that this place is inexpensive however you do get bang for your buck. The staff was pleasant and very informative on the menu choices, there was no rush and it was a very nice experience.

    Chicken and waffles and french toast with the basblue latte
    Munzer R.

    This is probably the best hidden gem in Detroit. Inside of a house in a neighborhood, the whole space has been converted into a cafe and co-working/office space. The cafe has amazing drink and food selections that are as tasty as they are visually aesthetic. I would recommend the french toast and the basblue latte. I am always in awe that the space actually exists and isn't talked about more, but every time I post, I always get friends replying and asking where I am. I would highly recommend coming here for brunch and working out of the cafe. It's a cool place to check out and definitely a unique and historic Detroit spot.

    What an adorable hidden gem! We were riding scooters around and on the search for a great coffee. Yelp pointed us in the right direction! The lattes were on point and the berry danish was warm and delicious. Wish we had a little spot like this closer to home!

Tucked in the Chrysler building is the Dime Store restaurant, this is a small establishment with about 20-ish tables and bar seating. Entrance is through the Chrysler building. I must mention there is ample street or structure parking in the area. Dine Store is casual feels with BIG flavors! Plus the Staff were friendly and welcoming. At our table, we started with Chai Lattes. They offer milk alternatives-Yaay! The Chai was good sprinkled with cinnamon and steaming hot. It could have used a bit more chai, which I'm sure they would have supplied but it was good that I sipped away. To note, they do offer cocktails and beers, as not all brunch places do. We tried the Mushroom and Goat cheese Omelette and a Build your Own omelette. Our table was pleased as the omelettes may appear 'small' but don't let that fool you, they were packed with flavor. Also, the dishes were made to order. The cubed potatoes were delicious along with the Zingerman's Toast with strawberry jam. Oh yes, we also got a side of the chicken sausage and no disappointments. Everything was cooked to perfection. I must point out that the ingredients were fresh, we could taste the difference with the farm to table ingredients and the potatoes and omelettes were not greasy at all! Can't wait to visit again-recommended!

I need not have worried; there was parking closer by. Oh well. The restaurant is tiny. And it maximizes the space by lining its walls with colorful bottles of wine, chic and cher containers of olive oil, and pots of artisanal honey hiding here and there. My friend pointed out the breathtakingly beautiful bouquet of dried flowers hanging over our table. I should have taken a photo when I had the chance. I started with the spiced brown sugar latte, made with oat milk. Delicious and sweeter than I thought. Even though the menu is small and curated, I could not decide between the nosh plate, the biscuit brekkie, or the quiche, which was the special of the day. So I ended up with the quiche but added the biscuit and bacon - I did not want to miss out. The crust of the quiche was fine, but the custard-like filling was divine, more like a savory crème brûlée or flan. Service was quick and efficient. Our reservation was made for one of the predefined 90-minute blocks, so the staff was on top of getting and delivering our meals and bussing tables as soon as they emptied to make room for the next group of guests.

The biscuits were so good my aunt and mom are coming back before their flight to take 4 each lol

I normally do not like breakfast burritos since I find them really dry, but the eggs were moist and tender and ditto for the tortilla. I had the sausage, and it was diced and mixed in with the other ingredients, but it was more of a processed sausage (maybe chicken?) with a bouncy texture. Western Potatoes: This dish has diced red skin potatoes with thinly shredded cooked red onions and bell peppers. It has a coating of spice on it which made the ketchup unnecessary as it was already so flavorful. The inside was fluffy, but the outside had no crisp and was slightly oily. I know part of it was due to the fact that it was delivered, but I wasn't a fan still.  Veg Life Quiche: This was a good quiche. The egg were tender with the addition of buttermilk, and it was teeming with spinach, tomato, onion and topped with cheddar cheese. The crust was a standard crust.  This is a solid option for catering if you want to have a more unique place than the standard chain restaurants. I liked how everything was almost all pre portioned out too.
