    Love this place! The getting a discount and/or free drinks when you buy bags of coffee is cool, but the real hype is the beans. Always different types of cultivators, elevations, notes, and single sourced beans. Honestly if you know what you're doing when it comes down to brewing at home this is the place to get your beans!

    Adorable!

    I was invited to the 10 year celebration, so I thought I'd check out the spot. I'd been buying their coffee beans for quite some time for clients, but never had a chance to check out the cafe. Their Prometheus and Helios beans earn rave reviews with my friends, but I thought I'd try one of their unique drink creation. I got the cardi boi with decaf and oat milk. It was incredible. The perfect mix of cardamom, cinnamon and brown sugar. The location is an adorable, quaint spot right next to the co op. I'll be back to try more creations.

    I really enjoyed the ambience of Hyperion. The outdoor space is huge and comfortable. I got my go-to Iced Chai Latte and it was pretty sweet but delicious. My brother tried the espresso tonic (which neither of us had ever heard of) and he quite liked it!

    Ypsilanti has become a high quality/low key coffee Mecca with Vertex and cafe liv just around the corner, and Hyperion is definitely no exception! With its white coated brick walls, I love how they have repurposed this unassuming building into a great coffee shop. I got a nitro cold brew and it was deliciously nutty and earthy. Although I didn't get any of the pastries, the display looked tantalizing and it seemed everyone that did enjoyed their treats. What I find here that many Michigan coffee shops lack is that comfy lived in atmosphere. Service was on par and what you would expect. Overall, another great study spot for the books!

    Iced Honey Lavender Latte

    Ordered the Iced Honey Lavender Latte. OBSESSED. perfect sweetness, and the lavender aspect is perfect

    Impressive brewing equipment avail!

    Stopped by Hyperion as I've heard the hype & good things! I've been to Cultivate but I've never noticed it; the entrance is around the corner from the street though, so maybe that's why! I tried their seasonal beverages, on recommendation from the barista, as well as some of the locally made baked goods! *Honey Lavender Latte - Lavender in a latte is hard to get right. I've had too many lattes that tasted like drinking a soap/candle. This was the perfect balance and still let the coffee shine. I guess that's what happens when its housemade Lavender simple syrup! The other seasonal that looked BOMB (and something I've only had on the West Coast) is the Cardi Boi (brown sugar, cardamom and cinnamon). So Kudos to Hyperion for being up with the trends! *Everything Bialy - Oh this was perfection. I loved the sweet caramelized onions with the cream cheese center and just bits of savory from the everything bagel seasoning. I demolished this. Thanks again to the barista for recs. *Lavender Lemon Bar - A little bit more cooked than I expected from a lemon bar but the taste was good! I was also really impressed with all the coffee equipment available! Good to know for next time!

    I had a cold brew which was creamy and excellent. My daughter had a lavender, honey iced latte that we have been dreaming about ever since. Rustic shop with small menu with super friendly l, accommodating staff.

    I know it's a cliche but look how pretty and delicious this cup of coffee is! A very happy customer drank this!

    I can't believe I haven't visited such an iconic place when I drive by almost every day! Finally got the opportunity to visit when meeting with a new friend and WOW I had such a good time. The staff was very knowledgeable about their products and recommended a holiday flavored coffee for me that I absolutely loved! Very collaborative atmosphere and I am excited to meet more humans here and take advantage of their cool outdoor space!

    This is definitely my favorite coffee place in ypsi. Nothing like coming here on a nice day when all their doors are open for a relaxing iced coffee moment in open air! I never leave here disappointed. The atmosphere is very chill and perfect for studying or working. Staff has always been super friendly and welcoming. Their passion for coffee always comes across!

    Although a relatively unassuming location, the iced americano is pretty good and has the classic hipster coffee shop aesthetic

    Qahwah House - Adeni chai, strawberry cake pop and spinach pastry

    I frequent this plaza a lot for Plum Market, Ricewood and my colorist. Ahead of an appointment, I…read moredecided I needed a quick caffeine fix. I'm familiar with Qahwah House thanks to Yelp! We had a Yelp event at their Dearborn location. I really wanted the iced Adeni chai that a few reviews have talked about, but they were unfortunately out. So, I got the hot Adeni chai with no sweetener. It does take a little longer as they brew it fresh. You can watch them heat and steep from the induction stove right there which is pretty cool. I was surprised by how spacious it was. There were ample tables (that I appreciated they were wiping down on a regular basis) as well as WiFi. If I need to change up scenery, I'll have to stop by here. Also they had a whole refrigerated case of goodies. I'll have to come back and get something - that Pistachio dream cheesecake was calling to me!

    Honestly, I had an average experience. The barista was nice and helped recommend a great refresher…read morebut nothing special. We went when there was a student discount (buy one get one free) so that was great, but to be honest, I probably wouldn't go if one of my drinks weren't free- the prices are crazy! But, I guess I can't complain given my normal Starbucks order is around the same cost. Drinks were tasty but the refresher was kind of bland. Again, if we're comparing to Starbucks, I probably would still choose my regular refresher there over this one. Environment was quiet, clean, and easy to study, however it was SO hot! I'm wondering if the heat was on. Not sure why that would be the case since it was the middle of September. Overall, I was a little disappointed with my experience. It did not stand out to me and was overwhelming because of the heat.
