I came here on a Sunday before heading to the Rustbelt Market next door, and had a great experience! I ordered a matcha latte and the cherry almond loaf. The latte was delicious, and the loaf was sooo good. It had almost a pound cake-like texture. Dense in the best way, and the perfect amount of sweetness. I ended up grabbing a table to sit at, and enjoyed the ambiance and people around me. I will say it's pretty small in there though -- probably less than 10 tables, so I wouldn't count on getting a seat. Regardless, a great space to grab a coffee or tea and treat to go! read more

On a cold morning in Michigan I stepped in here to grab a nice hot cup of coffee. I normally always go for something iced, but when it's single digit temps out there, I go with hot. They have seasonal syrups, but they do not offer seasonal drink specials. That's no problem! I asked the barista what he would recommend with their house made ginger molasses syrup and he made me a latte. I appreciated that it wasn't just some sugar bomb, this coffee had character. The ginger comes through the coffee and it really was very enjoyable. The place has a few tables and it was busy for this frigid morning. Cool spot, good coffee! read more

The coffee is good, inexpensive, but also fresh. The baked good are varied, and sometimes have different offerings each day. I wish the staff were friendlier, and took more pleasure in explaining their coffee/options than they are, but overall, could be worse. read more

First visit to Red Hook, and we had such a delightful time! We didn't try any food this time, but it looked delicious. The service was fast and the people working were so nice! It was pretty busy when we went, but the ambiance was inviting and warm. Would definitely come back again! read more

Very good coffee and delicious snacks. The staff is always very friendly. Small space, limited seating.

Small cafe in Ferndale. I had coffee and a piece of ginger-maple bread (not sure of the actual name). The coffee was very good. The bread was good,as well. A little on the sweet side. The shop had the usual variety of coffee and coffee drinks along with various baked goods. The baked goods looks "fresh made", and some uncommon baked items, like some sort of giant baked rice Krispy thingy. Service was friendly and fast. There is seating inside and outside. Most of the table are for 2 people. read more

Gotta check out a local chain! There's parking in the lot in the back. You can access the cafe from the front or back of the building. Lots of pastries here! Including vegan options too! I got a cortado with lavender. For some reason it was decent but not my fave. I do want to try a different flavor. Cute place! Not large. No seating inside for now. Lots of plants in there that are thriving! They've got large windows in the front that allow lots of light in. read more

Although it was warm for a January, it was still a cold morning when a friend and I met up for coffee. Restaurants were still closed for COVID so we checked out the display of pastries and baked goods placed temporarily at the front of the café and placed our order at the takeout window. The line was short and it moved very quickly. With our goodies, we made our way to a nearby bench to catch up with each other while trying to stay warm. Since COVID cases were still increasing, I decided to leave my mask on and eat only when I returned home. It was a good decision since I was able to pop the goodies into the oven for a quick warm up. I had selected the egg biscuit and bacon/cheddar popover for breakfast and a galette for another day. In addition to those items, there were scones, cakes, cookies, and macarons available. I think I saw a cinnamon roll, as well; I am still surprised that I resisted. The egg biscuit was spectacular. That is the only word to describe the tasty, tender and flaky biscuit with the delicious egg topped with a slice of melted white cheddar. The sandwich was so thick I nibbled around it. I am so haunted by how good it was. And even now, several days later, I am still thinking of it. The popover was different from what I expected. Instead of something similar to Yorkshire pudding, this was comparable to a Red Lobster biscuit, but with a soft center, topped with cheddar and bacon. It was small but good. The galette was okay. Filled with mushrooms, sliced small potatoes, and sunflower seeds, it was a flaky, creative lunch treat. I will definitely return - probably earlier than I typically would, especially given the distance from home. read more

I love this place! Super friendly staff, and the coffee is always tasty! I absolutely love the scones. 5 stars!

Cute little coffee shop in downtown Ferndale. I had the iced chai tea latte and it was very refreshing. My husband ordered golden milk (mainly because he was intrigued with the name).. he said it was interesting but not sure if he'd get it again.. apparently it had turmeric spice and fresh ground pepper in it? The latte art was beautiful though! read more

my coffee tasted like (watery) burnt tar. i hope i got a bad batch and that this isn't what people like to drink.

Got an immunity shot (Drought), spearmint tea and a lavender latte. The immunity shot from Drought is intense and potent. Felt a boost of energy from it. It burns a little at the back of the gulp. The spearmint smells nicely and effervescent even though it's just a teabag. The lavender latte doesn't have a strong lavender scent to it, tastes okay. Total $12.23. read more

Decided to try this place out based on the other reviews. It's a cute, cozy and comfy place. Daughter asked for an iced coffee and lemon cake and enjoyed her choices. Said the cake was very sweet. I opted for a mocha with skim milk and a banana chocolate malt scone. I love scones and this one had a great flavor and was not dry like some can be. read more

Bacon cheddar popover. My friend picked a couple up for us so we could could have a light breakfast. They were unassuming, just there at the register when he was getting coffee, an afterthought to the order. I ate mine first. He did not believe me that this little biscuit packed such flavor and texture in what appeared to be a boring biscuit. Then he ate it. Though mmmmm, this is so good, he described it as a flavor organism. We will be going back many times in the future just for this. (The coffee is also solid, though the size is a bit small for price point.) And that little biscuit deserves every bit of a five star review. read more

This is closer to a 3.5 star review instead of a straight 3 star review. I came in here for a drink after brunch but prior to going to the AR Workshop. They are a closer to a traditional coffee shop rather then a Starbucks/Coffee Beanery/etc. So if you are going into here looking for name brand type of drinks, this is not the place. They have both regular milk and non cow's based milk which is nice especially if you don't normally drink a lot of cow's milk. I had a hot chocolate with almond milk which was decent but not great. It was not super hot which was on a cold day is what I was looking for. The cool thing about here was that there were gluten free food. I did not try the brownie to know if it was good. I also had the feeling based on how the food was setup, the food changes by the day. It would be interesting to see. I will probably be back given the lack of the "box" coffee drink places in the heart of Ferndale. read more

It has been a few years since I last came here, and things were surely different. The lobby is now closed off to customers and Red Hook introduced a walk up window in place of their lobby. Part of the whole experience of Red Hook that I really enjoyed was being able to go in and get that freshly baked desserts blended with coffee aroma. There are still a few tables out front on the sidewalk, but this coffee shop is always busy so getting a table will require perfect timing (or good luck). It will be nice to see their lobby be open once again, and hopefully it will be soon. read more

Came here for the first time and saw they had banana bread loaves. Now, I'm suuuuper picky about my banana bread and was leery about it because the price was $10. I've paid $10+ for loaves before at other places and they were dry as hell, and most definitely not worth the price. Let me tell you... this was the BEST banana bread I've ever purchased!!! So heavy, so moist and so goddamn delicious, it needed a review!!! This bread is FIRE and if you stop in here and they have it... BUY A LOAF!!!! read more

So... this place is small. For that reason, I don't want to tell you about it. I don't want to tell you that the moca cafe is chocolaty-coffee goodness. I don't want to tell you that the service is quick and with a smile. If I tell you these things, you will go, the place will become crowded. So please don't listen to me. If you do, you will go and have a great experience. Consider this a warning. Décor: 3 out of 5 Food: 3 out of 5 Drinks: 4 out of 5 Service: 4 out of 5 Cleanliness: 4 out of 5 read more

The Red Hook is legit. A cozy coffee shop with the best espresso drinks in Ferndale, and a bakery case worthy of a 5 star review of its own. Sure, it's kinda hipster, but Red Hook had been a fixture on 9 mile for 8 solid years now. It's a community spot where you'll run into, well, everyone. From service workers grabbing a cup of coffee before they shuffle into the boutiques on 9 mile, to local writers, artists and entrepreneurs hunched over laptops. Noticeably present too, are the moms and dads with kids in tow. With a coloring/reading nook in the back hallway, this is a small but lovely spot to stop with kids for a bit. Don't expect open seating at peak coffeeshop hours. This spot is busy, and there is only seating for about 10 people inside. Summer brings additional outdoor seating, which makes for a great sunny, people watching spot. I drink the Cortado, and highly recommend it. It is served in a small glass, but it's exactly the proportions I like, about 50/50 espresso & cream. (Note: do not order a Cortado to-go, unless you like holding a Dixie cup while you drive. Ask me how I know.) The iced chai is my second choice. And never disappoints. Do yourself a favor, and pair your drink with a baked good. The case is full of cookies, savory scones, spiced loaf, macarons, bars, the works! Try the almond tart w raspberries. Not too sweet, and a great small portion that won't make you feel toooo guilty. Best eaten on-site, with a fork and a plate. Vegan? Not a problem, they have several vegan cookies and loaves baked fresh. The vegan chocolate zucchini is scrumptious. And naturally they offer almond milk substitutes for beverages. Park in the back parking lot, or grab a street spot out front. The parking meter will cost 50c per hour (soon to be $1 per hour) and it's worth it, because you're near so many cute shops and have time to pop in to browse before you go. read more

Cute coffee shop with great coffee and homemade pastries. Stopped in here for a quick latte before dinner. I'm glad I did! The decor is shabby chic, staff was friendly, the medium latte I ordered was delicious, and beautiful with latte art! They share their space with Pinwheel Bakery so all the pastries looked and sounded delicious; they even had some vegan options, which is always a plus. I picked up some macarons too which were so light, airy and flavorful. Nice little cafe located between some great restaurants in Ferndale! read more

Cute little coffee shop in the heart of Ferndale next to the Boston Tea Room. Super busy today, but it's because the coffee is great! I got the lavender latte for $5.50, a lil pricey but it was tasty so worth it. I'm sure it's a great place to chill and relax on the weekdays when it's not as busy!

The coffee and pastries are good but not the most welcoming place. The staff has changed and the energy as well.

They are so sweet here. Best chai I have found in Metro Detroit - not too sweet, little peppery and really creamy. Honestly great ownership and staff. Kind people. I always drive out of my way for this one. Today my dad was visiting and driving and he kept getting flustered. We ended up arriving 1 min past close and the woman inside took our order still. - I was having such a bad day, and going here cheered me up today and I think it calmed my dad down too. read more
