We love Bon Bon Bon and they have a small stall here! One of my favorite discoveries though was The Workplace Program - selling cards made by people with disabilities - they were so unique and awesome! I ended up buying one for my brother's birthday and it was the same price you'd see at Hallmark for a nice card. Overall, the space was clean and easy to navigate - only took us about 45 minutes to browse through all the vendors. Definitely check out if you're in the area and want to support local!

I used to come here more often. Do not get me wrong, this is still a great city. I love the…read morewalkability of it, the many parks, the great theaters and restaurants, the fun carnivals and art fairs, but I have seen a downside in more recent years. There is so much construction that has closed so many streets, so many lost businesses, and the overpriced restaurants that do not offer enough value, I have been coming a bit less than usual. I know it is a tough time for businesses and restaurants, but so many of my favorites have closed. Plus, a lot of times, walking around the city, there needs to be a bit more tree cover and shade, it gets hot getting around on foot. I will still continue to be your tourist and customer, and I still do enjoy a day over here.

BHam is a stones throw away. It's a great city for nightlife, parking is as much of a headache here…read moreas it is in any downtown area. Luckily they offer their first couple of hours free in the structures. There's so many of my favorite places to eat here. I like Market place, adachi, social kitchen, Raw eats, Vinsetta (formerly transplanted from Royal Oak), Churchill's, Mitchell's, streetside, Tallulah and the list goes on and on. There are so many fun shops and stores here too. Papyrus, West Elm, Caruso Caruso, Anthropologie, Harp's lingerie, Paper source, Claymore shop, Lucido jewelers, La Croix, Suhm-thing, etc.

That was the rumor, so of course we came; actually, we came here a few times during my senior year in high school. Once a few people climbed down to check it out. I think I stayed and made out with someone in the car. All in all, it's totally anticlimactic, but it's still thrilling if you're in high school and had nothing better to do. Long live the Trowbridge!

It's hard to know how to accurately review Ferndale. It's a very nice, well-kept suburban town with…read moresome interesting shops. We particularly like The Rocket, which is a fun shop with toys, candy, and various peraphernalia such as superhero merchandise, etc. We also like the dining and pub scene there, particularly the The Oakland which has great cocktails and sports a new look. In other words, this is a great town in which to spend a day or evening and 9-Mile on both sides of Woodward, particularly the west side, are fun strolls. Woodward has a few things as well and Troy St. also has some commercial opportunities. On the cautionary side (and this is a minor thing but one that stuck out to me), the fact that Woodward runs right through town makes it almost feel like a highway is right on top of the town center area. So while Ferndale is still a fun visit, this means that any sort of quaintness is gone. This is often expected with a small town. But as long as you know that, the attraction is still there. There is plenty of accessible, affordable parking which helps with a visit to an older area not originally meant for the volume of humanity it currently sees.

Why am I paying to patronize your city anyway; and watch the man that is running for mayor, Sean Hurley drunk and throwing things at the waitress. Never going back to Ferndale!!!!

Who would have thought we could really "Save Rackham" 8. Everyone really seems to understand and embrace the value of recreation. 9. Clubs & Organizations really enhance the offerings of the city. Men's Club Auction is a city "must do". 10. Opening Day for baseball is an absolute slice of Americana, with the mayor throwing out the first pitch, the parade of players and 100 video cameras rolling. 11. Kids can ride their bikes all over town without having to cross a major road. 12. Our community-built playground. 13. It really is a cross between Mayberry and Wisteria Lane....mostly in a good way. 14. The never-ending support from area businesses like Zumba, Four Seasons, Pronto and many more.. 15. The pool is a summer gathering place. 16. Fruit Camps are a great place for both campers and staff - and voted #1 by the Hometown Herald. 17. Parents are friends with the parents and the kids, kids know their friends parents and extended family. ;ines of the generatioms are blurred as families are friends with families.

From its summer camps, year-round recreational activities, beautiful parks, and great community center and aquatic center, Huntington Woods screams family charm.

The other weekend the Craft Revival took place at the Loving Touch in Fabulous Ferndale. I heard…read moreabout it from a friend who is active in the Handmade Detroit/Detroit Urban Craft Fair circuit. I had never been to the Loving Touch before. I walked down Woodward until I found it not far from the WAB. I walked inside to the tables and tables of art and crafts. I thought it was a brilliant venue with the pool tables being covered and converted to tables for the vendors. The way that the pool tables are arranged made it easy to meander through the tables and see all the items without being overly crowded. I am always impressed by local craft shows. The people in the area are really talented and they make some really nice items. I was surprised to see a few people I know, including Yelp aristocrat, Mariah C. The only drawback that I found was that the place was a little too dark to see things clearly. It wasn't a major problem but just not ideal. Other than that I thought it was a great show.

I've only been to the Troy location for dine in…read more The only positive thing I have to say is that the restaurant was clean and my pizza was on time and ready when i arrived. i ordered a gluten free Margarita pizza with double cheese. They gave me a regular Margarita pizza, The cheese was regular and not extra and i'm 100% positive it was not gluten free because I got severely ill few hours afterwards. It's one thing to get a topping incorrect but messing around with food intolerances/allergies is unacceptable! The cooks need to be more careful and attentive when they see the words "gluten-free,, dairy free, shellfish free, ect. I will NOT be returning. There are many other pizza places i can go to in the area that prioritize food allergies to ensure their customers are safe.
