Asal Bee Cafe
304 S Main St, Ferndale, MI
Crema's Take
“Asal Bee Cafe is a warmly run neighborhood gem where the owner's passion for honey shines through in everything from the house-made ice cream to the signature Yemeni tea, creating an unexpectedly memorable experience even on the coldest Michigan days. The intimate space with its inviting mood lighting and thoughtful pastry selection makes it feel like a place where the owner genuinely wants you to linger, try something new, and discover why their creative drinks and desserts keep drawing people back.”

The Yemeni Tea and Honeycomb Ice Cream were fantastic! Even on a day where the weather outside was below zero, the ice cream hit the spot! It was made entirely in-house and had flavors that were a refreshing change of pace. I will certainly add this to the rotation when I'm craving a sweet treat!
Came in because the cafe looked very nice from the outside. The owner was wonderful! He had us try the ice cream and all three honey flavors while he talked about their benefits. My friends and I got the Adani chai and it was very good. We were also given a small complementary mango ice cream which was a nice touch. I definitely recommend this cafe for their beverages and excellent service :)
This place is open on Sundays after all. They should update their hours on here, still shows they are closed Sundays. One staffer had to wait for his colleague to return to answer questions about what Vimto was and what zero sugar synthetic sugar is used for the ice cream. Ordered a Honey ginger tea and Arasi smoothie. $13.48 A staffer had us try their zero sugar ice cream, vanilla and mango. I am not a big fan of vanilla, it's too plain to me. They have an Oreo cone, that's unique. Pastries look interesting, but not appetizing though. The ginger honey tea is quite odd, not a big fan. The spices are not so good. It's got an odd taste that hits the back of my tongue and throat and makes it taste off somehow. My husband likes it less than me. This tea would have been left ad ginger and honey only. The odd concoction of spices made it really tough to drink. Like a bad medicine going down. They gave us a Boba straws and it doesn't fit inside the slot for the smoothie at all. The Vimto isn't for me, tastes like syrup to me. Smoothie would be better with mango only. We swapped drinks, since each of us could tolerate one drink over the other.
Delicious food and drinks. Great atmosphere and mood lighting. The owner is very nice and friendly. The tea, coffee, ice cream, and desserts were all delicious. The coffee was heavenly, one of the best I have ever had. The cake is just as delicious as it looks. I highly highly recommend you check this café out. I will be returning for the coffee and to try more desserts in the future.
Delicious smoothies and home made ice cream! I loved my smoothie. The man who greeted me was very kind and let me sample different kinds of honey and the home made ice cream. He said it’s their soft opening so they are still serving people as they come in and their grand opening will be next week. So friendly! Cute space inside too!
