Sightseeing

If you want green space and time outside, this is the spot. You can enjoy on the beach, check out the historical infrastructure like the fountain or just do a loop around it in a car to say you did.

An ever growing art exhibit that uses found junk to beautify (?) blighted neighborhoods. Bring a camera and don't be intimidated by the surroundings - despite appearances this neighborhood is safeish.

Only on Saturday Mornings. Everything you could ever want from a market from produce to soap. Try the perogies if you can find the little cart making them - decent price and it'll keep you going.

This is by far the best place to get groceries. Once a Mexican market but has become much more - they have everything from organic cleaners to perfectly ripe papaya. If you can, buy chorizo. So good.

Food Scene

This is by far my most frequent stop in Detroit. The coffee drinks are spot on (try the lavender latte) and the wine list is hand picked by a friend of mine. Sit at the bar. Don't bring your computer.

Great club if you're into Jazz. The food has gone downhill in the past year but the music has stayed as delightful as it ever was. Sit, listen and if you get a chance, walk around the place and look.

The bagels here are hand-crafted Detroit originals. Dont be distracted by the many options for food - the rosemary and sea salt is by far the best, toasted, cream cheese. Keep it simple.

Be warned - this place is full of hipsters and the music is often terrible . However, the espresso is ok. I go here to meet with people and to slow sip a double shot while watching passer-bys.

This is the best and closest place to grab food (DELICIOUS SANDWICHES) and a beverage. Impeccable beer selection, their wines are more than what you'd expect from a sub shop and they have coffee too!

Drinks & Nightlife

Good Cocktails. Often crowded and a bit pricey but worth at least one visit. My favorite cocktail isn't on the menu - the EFK is a bourbon cocktail that they smoke on site. It VERY SMOKEY...

This distillery is home to our good friend Brad Greenhills Thai food pop-up "Katoi". The drinks are so-so, the service is terrible, but the food makes it all worth it. After 5pm is when they start.
