    Strawberry matcha

    Came back to try one of the fall drinks- 10/10! Not too sweet and the pumpkin foam was perfect- my only complaint would be that I needed to have a little bit more of it!

    Birthday Toast
    Jessica L.

    I think going to Dixboro for my birthday is going to be my new tradition! The staff took such great care of me and even went as far as to get me a welcome toast. I like that their menu is seasonal and changes every few months. The menu from when I first went is different from this last time, and it made the experience so much more exciting and enjoyable. I also feel like I can look forward to coming back and seeing if the same menu items are there because they're so tasty. The Grilled Octopus was to die for. Classy and delicious at the same time!

    Sumptuous pb and J croissant

    Can I just say these pastries are unreal ??? Wow On par with SF and better than NYC Quick service I recommend you get a coffee and sit outside What a lovely afternoon

    Usually here for their brown sugar latte, but my new favorite here is their cereal milk latte!

    Fruit salad with sour honey

    Drove by the DP all the time and finally decided to make reservations for brunch. The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous and a bit breathtaking. We were seated in the room, farthest to the main entrance, and could see the lake from our table. Service from the moment we walked in, till we walked out, was outstanding. We ordered a ham and cheese croissant, duck hash, side of fruit and cappuccinos. Everything was delicious but the dish that blew me away was the duck hash. It was like an explosion of flavors! Can't wait to go back to try other dishes. This is a great place for brunch and date nights!

    I LOVE the aesthetic and rustic vibe of this place. The Dixboro Project really did amazing job restoring the century-old barn while keeping certain elements from the original structure, such as the exposed 140-year-old timbers, gambrel vaulted ceiling, and original stone fireplace. The menu is simple but tasteful. The wood-fired pizzas and bakery items are SO delicious, you'll want to take some to-go for the next day! They feature Roos Roast coffee and make yummy adult beverages at their bar too. They also have The Boro, a side door all-day cafe for takeout.

    The Boro-eo cookie :)

    My new favorite place in Ann Arbor The margarita pizza was 5/5 and the chili oil was so good with it. The mushroom sandwich was so flavorful 5/5. Cold Brew was strong and woke me up lickety-split 5/5 forgot to ask which coffee they use. The Boro-eo cookie was delicious. Service 5/5 everyone just seems genuinely happy working there. Really made you feel welcomed. Ambiance 5/5 near a creek and plenty of trees surrounding. The layout is very nicely spaced. The table to table spacing is on point. I love this place :)

    Peach cobbler dessert special

    The service was excellent, the food tasted great, but the prices were a bit steep. My side salad was $17 we especially enjoyed the peach cobbler dessert.

    Chili oil that comes with mushroom pizza
    Grace K.

    This is my favorite pizza place! I've been hooked on their mushroom pizza ever since the first bite. I love the thin, slightly charred crust, slightly sweet cheese and cream sauce, and savory mushroom and mushroom topping. This pizza also comes with chili oil on the side to sprinkle over your slice and give it a little kick! I didn't realize this till after a few visits, but there are actually three 'restaurants' in this location. The Dixboro Project is specifically for their tasting menu, the Boro is a little more casual, you can order things like pizza, steak, pasta, etc., and there's a pick up spot where you can quickly pick up delicious pastries (made by a Michelin star chef!), coffee drinks, and takeout orders. You can't go wrong with any of their pastries. My favorite is the nutter butter sandwich and almond croissant. Their drinks are also fantastic. During my last visit, I ordered the grapefruit spritz mock tail which was delicious and refreshing! The location is so gorgeous. It feels like a green retreat space outside the hustle bustle of Ann Arbor. The patio is beautiful and overlooking hammocks and a small dock next to a stream behind the building. I appreciated the picnic tables strewn around for those who want to eat their pastries or takeout outside in a quieter location and don't necessarily need service. Love this place. Will be back and bringing friends/family!

From the gardens to the land with a creek flowing though it -- to the beautiful building and pleasing decor inside and a porch with tables around much of it. So impressed. The menu, our server explained, is changed out quarterly and this is the new summer one. So many unique small and large plates (but when he described them, they were way more intricate and enticing than the menu even showed). He was attentive and helped guide our choices. We ordered the eggplant small plate to share, then the mushroom pizza (so much tastier than the description would indicate), and the wild boar brat with cherry and peach accents. Everything was delicious. I also got an iced latte with the house made mocha and it was better than alcohol, if you're a coffee lover anyway. 100% plan to come back! And likely soon. This is up there with how I feel about Sylvan Table, which is a huge compliment to Dixboro Project!

This Sunday, my mom invited myself and my siblings to join her for brunch. The ambience was amazing - with lovely natural lighting and gorgeous table settings. The menu makes every dish seem mouthwatering and delicious. When the plates came out, they were gorgeous and the food looked so inviting. Unfortunately, the taste was completely lacking. If you're going to charge the prices they're charging, the flavor should be amazing in every single bite. We sampled four different dishes, and none blew me away. Some, were even borderline "bad." Here's a rundown: mushroom pizza - the description makes it seem like it will be cheesy and full of flavor, but it was very one note duck confit pizza - had three pieces of duck on it and was otherwise covered in hot peppers lemon blueberry pancake - more of a skillet cake - sauce was the best part, otherwise dry on the bottom Raclette burger - $30 which is almost comparable in price to a burger I had at The Four Seasons in Maui. That burger, was worth every penny. This one had absolutely no flavor. The meat tasted like mush - definitely lacked seasoning, and there was not a speck of cheese to be found. If you're going to call a burger a raclette, it should be oozing with cheese. grilled Romaine salad - leaves were bitter and the dressing again, looked delicious, but had no flavor. The flavors did not compliment each other at all - with the pickled grapes, taking away from the dish and contrasting very starkly against the rotten tasting lettuce Brown sugar oat milk latte - really the only thing that delivered both on looks and on flavor. Sadly, not high on my list of places to return. It kind of made me think of Vegas: lots of pomp and glam which momentarily distracts you into thinking you're having the best time of your life. But in retrospect, not very fulfilling.

After thoroughly searching Yelp, Google, and Reddit, I decided to check out Moonwinks this time. I arrived right as they were opening at 8 am and immediately loved the parking lot and plentiful seating inside. They also have some outside seating. Ann Arbor seems to have quite a few of these cafe/bar combination concepts so I think this spot turns into a bar in the evening. I ordered the Sammy's best (bacon, egg, spinach, tomato, swiss, and garlic aioli) on an asiago bagel as well as an oat milk latte. They brought my order out to my table when it was ready. The wifi was super fast and I was able to get quite a bit of work done. The bagel sandwich was super tasty and the asiago bagel was the cheesiest I've had in awhile! The garlic aioli gave it a bit of a zip and I really enjoyed this. The latte was smooth and creamy, not the best I've ever had, but it did the trick. I'm so glad I gave this spot a chance and will definitely be back the next time I'm in town. It was getting pretty busy by 9 am, so get there early if you'd like a table.

After clarifying that a Dulce de leche cinnamon roll is a cinnamon roll (there was a voice of two different cinnamon rolls, so it made sense to me to be specific), I was asked if I wanted it heated, which of course I did. I then caught that a regular coffee (rather than a latte) had been rung up. While I was typing my phone number to register for repeat customer rewards another person came in. While I was typing the cashier rang up the other customer cancelling my entry. This does not matter, actually, because the roll, while the frosting looked like it had been heated was stone cold and stale (clearly the icing had been touched or brushed somehow) and I would be crazy to return and spend money the amount I did, which unfortunately included a generous tip. This was before I realized that four workers could not focus on their jobs enough to incorporate a new potentially repeating customer into their morning routines.

As others have noted, it is pricey. It would be nice if the drinks were less expensive. A few things to note (and the only reason it's not a 5 star): - The website needs to be updated. I just wanted to peak at the menu, but there is no real website-- just a page that says it still hasn't fully opened yet, but it's been open for months. - When I clicked "order online" to try a different way to peak at the menu, that was also a dead end. Maybe just when I looked but either way, not great. - What made this place extra special and why it stood out from everywhere else in Ann Arbor was its late night hours. It effectively offered the only off-campus late night study spot (especially on Friday and Saturday, when the libraries and every other coffee shop is closed). I understand it's extremely costly to keep a business open when it's slow, but I hope it will go back soon.
