Quoth the Raven "Evermore!" Has an accessible entrance, flat flooring, and a wheelchair-accessible restroom. Unfortunately, due to the historic nature of the building, the upstairs seating area is only accessible by stairs. Quaint, charming café that serves lunchtime treats, coffee, and pastries. The hot cocoa is divine! I really like the literary/"dark academia" vibes and decor, as well as the many cute birdie knick-knacks roosting about the space. Service was friendly and unrushed, I felt free to linger and enjoy at my leisure. I will make it a point to stop in here whenever I pass through Port Huron! I dropped in during the week and there was zero-wait for a table, although I imagine the place probably bustles on weekends! read more

Such a treat to find this place in Port Huron. Close to the water in the downtown area. The Raven has an extensive food as well as drink menu. There's open seating up and downstairs. Our server was amazing especially with how busy they were. The Bloody Mary was excellent. Perfect amount of spice. I got the bon bon olive feta melt with turkey. It was so good. Melted feta and provolone cheese with black and green olives, red onion and green pesto on an olive baguette. Delicious. My friend got the Maelstrom salad with turkey, cranberries, Gorgonzola and bacon along with the lobster bisque which was delicious. All the dishes we saw looked amazing. I wish I could have tried dessert but I was stuffed. Definitely worthy of the drive there. read more

I've stopped in for coffee a few times but recently went and ate here with my siblings. You get to pick your own table/spot. So many great food and drink options. Our server was great and patient with our somewhat quirky group. I love all the books and comfy couches. read more

What a unique and delicious place! Love the Edgar Allen Poe theme. The food is great. The soups are the star! Mushroom Brie is so silky smooth. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. Can't wait to come back to try more. read more

Went here to grab a quick coffee and appetizer to go. The ambiance and whole vibe of this restaurant is truly one of a kind. Not only the exterior but the interior was extremely detailed and unique. I ordered the milky way iced and the spinach and artichoke dip. Both came out fast for them being pretty much full. The milky way was extremely light and could barely taste the coffee flavor. I will admit i like very strong coffee. The whipped cream made up for it being thick and tasty. I did not try the spinach and artichoke dip but my friend said it is the best she's had! Overall the drinks were okay. I would recommend ordering an extra shot of espresso in it if you wanted a more coffee based drink. Will be back to try more food next time I'm in town! read more

Raven Coffeehouse & Cafe - Milky way iced - Cafes Near Me - Port Huron, Michigan

Raven Coffeehouse & Cafe is a great spot for coffee and specialty drinks, including some excellent boozy coffee options. The atmosphere is unique and cozy, and it's easy to see why it's so popular. The food and drinks have always been good during my visits. One thing to keep in mind is that it's almost always busy and can feel pretty cramped, especially during peak hours. Even so, it's a great local café with a lot of character and is definitely worth a visit. read more

Raven Café is such a unique spot. The moment you walk in, the shelves full of books and the cozy wooden interior give off real HARRY POTTER VIBES--like stepping into a storybook. The place was packed when we visited, so service was a little slow, but the staff was friendly and kept things moving as best they could. We tried the coffee, which was rich and flavorful, perfect for the atmosphere. Definitely more than just a coffeehouse--it feels like a mix of library, café, and art space all in one. Worth a visit if you're in Port Huron. read more

I saw the rave reviews and figured I'd stop here for coffee and lunch. Seat yourself and check out the drink and food menu already at the table. I enjoyed a 20-ounce Nutty Irishman latte for a warm-up. I then chose a bowl of the lobster bisque soup, which was one of nine soups available but average. My entree was a delicious Pit and Pendulum grilled Reuben with homemade potato salad and a dill pickle. The lure to this eclectic place is the presentation. It is based on "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. There are bookshelves, bizarre artwork, and interesting figures. There is two-story seating with a rear balcony. Friendly but non-attentive service, as I had to ask for water refills and she left all the used dishes at my single table to maneuver around. There is a full espresso bar, eight rotating microbrews, a cocktail lounge, sandwiches, salads, nine soups, free Wi-Fi, breakfast, and live music. Shirts, hats, mugs, and more are available for purchase. The staff and environment exude a Seattle coffee house vibe. I want to return in the summer to examine more of the artwork on the wall and maybe sit outside. read more

Looking for an edgy coffee restaurant in Port h Huron? This is the place to do. The coffee and the food was good. They serve mainly sandwiches here but what Iove about the restaurant is the decors. The decors very edgy and remind me of Edgar Allen Poe (one of my fave writer). read more

Maybe it was an off day... A few of us drove over from Metro Detroit as this has been on my list to try. It's a cute place with a cool theme and is likely great for neighborhood folks who have their regular orders and stop in since it's close. Cons: I felt the place could have used a detailed cleaning. They brought out my friend's salad with *completely brown/gray avocado* on it. And when I say completely gray, I mean completely. Why it left the kitchen and made it to the table is a mystery. We addressed it with the server. Server was nice, but seemed perhaps not as informed about details of menu and drinks. I ordered the peanut butter mocha, but tasted no PB at all. I drank it all - it wasn't that big of a deal, but I agree with other reviews; iced coffee drinks are a touch weak. Pros: Staff was friendly. Cozy atmosphere. Nice size menu. Rest of what we all ordered was good. read more

I think a coffeehouse has pretty basic requirements: quality coffee, pastries, & a nice atmosphere. Ok, the Raven scored 33% - a nice atmosphere. The coffee & ice were just a hair above iced temperature. I hate cold coffee! And on a cold winter day, I really, really hate cold coffee. Taste may have been good, but hard to really tell. Pastries were dark & white chocolate cookies. Service was ok. Took our order & delivered it quickly. But no "how is your order" & coffee refill. read more

What a very cool spot. This is the second bookstore/cafe/bar I've been to and I'm loving this trend. I mean, it was inevitable I would love this spot because I love Edgar Alan Poe and obviously the owners of this spot are too. Was the drink anything special? No not really but was the experience special? Hell yeah! Just so cool. Loved it! read more

Super cute! Loved all the books from owners personal library as decor. Upstairs was lovely. Enjoyed the Doctor Who Tardis door :) The bloody mary was delicious and cappuccino hot and strong! We enjoyed our sandwiches. Service was fast. Cant wait to come back! read more

Cool vibe, elevated deli sandwiches and nine assorted soups daily- what else could you ask for? Beverage wise they offer a full bar, coffee/espresso and made to order Italian sodas. I could spend the day in here. It was very cozy. read more

We are regulars at this establishment and they do a great job with their coffee drinks and food. We really enjoy the hummus sandwich and we usually get a side of potato chips to dip in our tomato basil soup. They were not very busy and they had live music tonight. The service is great and we usually get our food in a reasonable amount of time. It is a coffee shop so it has a very casual atmosphere and a relaxed vibe. Sit, read a book, and enjoy the overall experience. Don't be in a rush. We will return to this restaurant again. read more

Went here for my first date with my (now) wife... Waited 45 minutes to get our drinks, fully expected to eat lunch here also... but never came back around to take our order. Sat for 2 hours. Service was absolutely AWFUL. Coffee was subpar, especially having a better coffee shop just a few doors down. read more

This spot was recommended by a friend a while back and we finally tried it, it did Not disappoint! The food and drinks were amazing. My sister had the roast beef and cheddar sandwich with fancier potato salad (mayo based plus bacon and chives) and I had the California Club and standard potato salad (mustard based). My sandwich was on a heartier bread that was grilled with garlic butter, and it did not overpower. Between the toasted bread, turkey tomato and avocado it was the Perfect combination of texture and flavors! My sister said the same about hers. They are a coffee shop with a Well stocked bar + draft choices. My sister had the "Bees in a Barrel" cocktail and it was a "juicy" pour! I enjoyed a "Magic Hat" which was lighter and refreshing. See photos for ingredients. The ambiance was a cozy bookshop feel, plenty of classic artists (literary, musical) acknowledged wherever you looked. Great music played overhead and they have live music on certain days. Menu had So many offerings for many categories, the drink menu was equally as large as the food one, located on the tables: heavy wooden tops with iron pedestals and metal bistro chairs. There was an upper level but we didn't venture up there. We were waited on by a young man who was very personable and I always like when the staff says, "Great choice!" or "Oh that's my favorite!" when I'm ordering. It makes me feel like "this is going to be Good!" and in this dining experience it certainly was. I Highly recommend this place for a great experience and I will definitely be back again when visiting from Dearborn! read more

I stumbled upon this quaint Cafe during a trip to Port Huron! The cafe is themed after Edgar Allen Poe...how cool is that! I loved the layout and spent some time exploring the cafe. They have an upstairs and outdoor patio, too. The menu is quite extensive for a cafe. I was shocked to see so many drink options on the menu. I loved the boozy shakes!!!! I ended up eating lunch at the cafe before heading out to the beach. If you get a chance to visit, I highly recommend the Raven Cafe on your next adventure. read more

I was staying at the CityFlatsHotel while visiting family in the area and I wanted to find coffee and breakfast on a Friday morning. The Raven was just down the street and just what I wanted: great coffee, great food and friendly people. If it wasn't obvious from the name, the whole establishment is an homage to Edgar Allan Poe. The decor is appropriately quirky, dark and humorous. They have many coffees, and the one I tried, Deadman's Reach dark roast, was excellent. I tried the breakfast B.E.L.T. Sandwich (bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato,) with a spicy mayo, served on some thick grilled pieces of rustic bread. Really an elevated breakfast sandwich. My partner had the Loaded Oatmeal with brown sugar, nuts and dried fruits. Very good. They also have a small retail shop so you can take home coffee and other souvenirs. They serve much more than breakfast and they apparently have live music regularly. The Raven is one of those off the beaten path places (and admit it, Port Huron, MI is pretty far from any path!) that you love to find. The people running the Raven Cafe are bringing joy, humor, attitude and skill to provide an enjoyable dining experience. read more

Because of all the great reviews I read about the Raven, I decided to go there for lunch. What a neat place this is! I came in through the back parking lot, so had to go up the stairs. Lots of fun signs & pictures along the way. I sat at a small table on the main floor -- so much to see! I ordered the half lemon chicken salad sandwich and a cup of mushroom brie soup. The sandwich was fine, but the soup was really good. My server, Idyll, was very good, making sure I had what I wanted and very personable as well. After I ate, I went upstairs -- which overlooks the downstairs. It looks like a comfy library, with couches and books and tables everywhere. Honestly, since I couldn't really find much to do in Port Huron, I should have just hung out there longer. I'm not sure that I'll go back to Port Huron, but if I do, I would definitely come here again. read more

Port Hurons best kept secret!!! The coolest atmosphere and great food and drinks-still at affordable prices!

Nowhere online does it say BREAKFAST ENDS AT FUCKING 11am!!! I ordered a mocha latte hot with oatmilk substitute. It had a plastic like aftertaste. I went to the register to say something as our server was busy. A heavier blonde woman from behind the counter told us we could check out with our server. I told her my latte had a plastic aftertaste and was curious what oatmilk they used. She said "I haven't had any complaints about our mocha today." She showed me the oatmilk they used. I don't believe it was the oatmilk that gave it that taste because I buy the same brand. No, "I'm sorry you experienced that." No offer to replace the drink. read more

dark and sweet experience... My last day in Port Huron, I was taken to a coffee shop because I'm a snob at heart and love discovering hidden gems, and this visit did not disappoint. We entered through the alley, and there was so much to take in that it was impossible not to fall in love with the place immediately. Dark themes include ravens, death, and the author Edgar Allan Poe. The Raven Cafe's inspiration for its collection of "bitty baddies" was a highlight among the local artwork I viewed. I knew the moment I laid eyes on them that I had to have them (now if only they were available as tiny dolls). The swag was so interesting that I ended up buying a few things before I even tried the coffee. Finally, I pursued the menu and ordered a nutty Irishman (mmm, that sounds good) with a classic almond biscotti for dessert Sandwiches, soups, and pastries are among the other tasty options. Check out the brunch and dinner menus, some of which have live acoustic music playing. The coffee may have been the initial draw, but I lingered for the cryptic artwork and rhyming couplets. The cup of coffee I was given was among the best I've ever had. My highest rating (5 stars) goes to a magical encounter at a top-tier coffee shop. read more

We visited Port Huron on a whim and came upon Raven Coffeehouse. Not only is the whimsical atmosphere a joy for avid readers, they also manage to bring in artists and musicians to round out a truly enjoyable experience. The food and drinks are also a favorite. Being vegetarian, there are plenty of delicious options and I don't know what it is, but I've never fallen so hard for a Greek salad. Spices are out of this world and the chipotle ranch is a one of a kind. The hummus veggie sandwich was also bomb - the potato salad was the fuse. Our server was also super chill, professional and easily handling 10 tables at the same time (probably more since there are 2 floors!). We would highly recommend this spot and given the non-veg reviews, we hope this balances out the well-rounded reviews. Thank you, Raven Coffeehouse for making the trip worth while! We always look for the food spot and this was it! Update: We ordered the fudge brownie sundae 5 minutes after writing the review...damn...so good! read more

Stopped here while on vacation. I had the "Mother's Sinful Sicilian" sandwich. It was zesty as expected because of the pepperoni. However, the French banquette it was served on was small. It was served alongside plain potato chips. Seasoned kettle chips would have been better, but that was not an option. My wife had the El Dorado Mesquite chicken salad. The serving size was hugh. She said it was a little spicier than she had anticipated. We split a large Vanilla Ice cream Sundae. However, the two scoops of ice cream were small. read more

Service is horrid. Drinks are wonderful... been coming here for years. Every time I order it seems to be an inconvenience for them to do their job. I'm in the service industry and understand how things get busy. The owner seems to hate what he does because he had absolutely no respect towards my partner and I. We patiently waited for nearly 20 minutes, just to put a two drinks in. We placed our orders and then he told us we were jackasses and then said it'll be longer because he has to make other drinks first which is obvious because those orders came in before ours. Great, coffee, great food, horrible horrible horrible service every single time I go. read more
