The atmosphere is to inviting! Their black eye is out of this world, food is simple, heathy, and very tasty.

Had coffee and a bite to eat. Chai was very good. The grits we had were amazing! The place has a gallery and good size stage. Will definitely be going back.

Airy, gorgeous, modernist cafe with beautiful plants and a wealth of books. Delicious simple food and excellent coffee. A local artist and intellectual hangout. Warda patisserie does everything exquisitely. Peoples Records is friendly and well curated. A very well done shared business.

My favorite coffee shop. Great to get work done or relax with a friend. Also have a super interesting library and special performances/events.

I was told to visit this place bc, they are able to make vegetables savory. This is entirely true, brunch was delightful, filling, and in an environment where you could comfortably spend an hour or more. Trinosophes has a less hustled brunch vibe than other spots mostly due to just how large the space is. Mid-century modern vibes and good company make this a weekend favorite.

Love the décor and friendly service. I came here for breakfast - the breakfast sandwich for was pretty generic with too much carbs.

A cute place for brunch and a coffee with your cutie or your laptop.

First of all, the coffee is out of this world, and so is the setting. Minimalist is right, with little more than a bar, tables, and a beautifully-stocked bookshelf (or 3). I could skim a blanco and sip a novel in here all day, and that is not even to mention their delectable vegan offerings.

Amazing coffee and tunes and even better food. One room is a no laptop zone which is cool cause the next room has big tables to work at. Really amazing place.

Excellent vegan salads and soups. The olive oil they use is aromatic!

Review №21

The fact that you guys want to reserve the main space for customers who eat, mostly brunch during weekend, is perfectly understandable. But that you systematically kick people out of this room, even when it is totally empty on a early Tuesday morning, this is just unacceptable. The price (pretty high) we pay for food and drinks is the same so I dont see why I have to be forced (been asked twice then when I got my laptop out, the lady just lost it) to sit where you choose, never saw that before... I wont be back.

NOT A PLACE WHERE PRODUCTIVITY CAN LIVE. I want to like this place SO BAD! I work from home, its walking distance from my home, also cute, trendy, cozy and the food isnt bad at all. So help me, this is the most HORRIBLE place to try and get things done on your computer. There is always, and I mean ALWAYS an issue with seating every time I give it another chance. You cant sit here, This area is closed, No laptops at this table... Not enough outlets but dont worry, theyll get you an extension cord that doesnt have a third prong for your new and up - to - date laptop. Im telling you, the food is the only saving grace this place has from a productivity standpoint. Looking for a work space, go to Starbucks in Greektown. Looking to chill and have a sip and a bite, this is your spot.

Visiting Detroit for the first time and grabbed lunch here with my cousin. The breakfast sandwich (with avocado) was AMAZING. I dont know how they make their biscuits, but I dont know that Ive ever tasted anything like them. They are super buttery, crunchy on the outside, and so moist on the inside. I want to take a box of them home! Their green tea vanilla latte is delicious, as well. The atmosphere is super chill. Would definitely go here again and recommend!

Previously gave this place 5 stars, downgraded because now they no longer let you sit and meet people or do work on the weekends unless you buy a full brunch service (maybe even after you buy it) — be warned!I had to switch up my weekly morning coffee work meeting because I didn’t know of the new policy. Headed over to Germack’s across the street in Eastern Market, which has great coffee and teas.For brunch, I’d recommend neighboring Antietam while they’re still open!

Review №42

Always tasty, fresh and healthy, and then there is the music, the gallery and the books! Feels good in here with lots of natural light, lots of nice plants, strong coffee and art. An anchor in the local arts and music scene for which I am truly thankful.

It wasnt idle for a show. Theres no alcohol, or ventilation so up by the stage it was super hot/stinky and sweaty. Reminiscent of my warp tour days. We paid $20 for Ty Segall who was awesome, but I wouldnt want to be there for a show again. The cafe servers were half nice and half rude. Probably annoyed that everyone was disappointed they didnt serve booze... but that wasnt our problem it was theres :/

No disclosure of no refills on iced tea ($3.50). When I asked for sugar for my drink, the waitress told me that there was sugar at the counter. Water? Yeah water was at the counter as well. Is this a table service restaurant or not? Dump.
