Cafe Prince
4884 Grand River Ave, Detroit, MI
Crema's Take
“This Detroit gem combines exceptional craftsmanship with genuine hospitality, from their inventive signature drinks like a carrot-forward creation and Maple Shakerato to house-made touches like marshmallows in your latte. The cozy, welcoming space strikes that rare balance between a serious coffee destination and a peaceful refuge for working or lingering, while their fresh, thoughtfully prepared food—like Ricotta Toast and creative seasonal offerings—elevates the entire experience. You'll find yourself returning not just for the excellent coffee and pastries, but for the warm service and the sense that this is a place where care goes into every detail.”

Great service and good coffee! I had their Maple Shakerato and a brownie. The drink had the perfect level of sweetness once stirred, and the brownie was soft with rich chocolate chunks, really satisfying. The ambience was also great; the indoor seating area had a calm, cozy vibe. Most people were working or studying, so it wasn't too loud, perfect for relaxing or getting some work done.
My favorite cafe to visit when I’m in Detroit. The space is amazing, and the menu is wonderful and life giving. I especially enjoyed the drink with the carrot! So fun and brilliant! I’ve been here 4 times during my visit as there’s a beautiful park and wonderful neighbors to patronize as well. What a gem!
We absolutely loved this place! It has a peaceful, cozy, and welcoming atmosphere — perfect for working, writing, reading, or simply enjoying a coffee, tea, or a snack from the menu. The music is soothing, and the vibe is ideal for focusing and feeling inspired. Laptops are welcome, and everything is spotless — clean, tidy, and well-organized. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. We tried the espresso and an herbal tea (chamomile and lavender) — both were delicious and thoughtfully prepared. They also serve decaf coffee espresso. Outside, there’s a small garden with beautiful trees and flowers where the birds come to sing, making the scenary from the window even more delightful. Inside, the presence of green plants adds even more charm — making the space feel warmer, more vibrant, and inviting. The space is filled with natural light, has high ceilings, and features modern, visually pleasing decor. It feels fresh, airy, and energetically clean — truly an inspiring place to be. I would definitely come back.
Very cool space, love the esthetic! We tried the Ricotta Toast and the Tomato Chickpea and really enjoyed both. The chefs kiss though was the house-made marshmallow in my latte. Service by Madeline was fantastic as well. Will definitely be back!
Passed by while in Detroit and really loved the cafe! The food is so fresh and good, and they prepare it right in front of you & use really fresh ingredients. Doesn’t get any better! The staff was so nice, I hung out and did some work while I had my food. They’re bringing a good vibe to the neighborhood. Love the coffee, nude carrot & of course the pizza when it’s available. Everything on the menu is amazing! Highly recommend.
