Metro Detroit’s Best Parks for Picnics | Eater Detroit
"A city favorite for more than 100 years, Palmer Park is spread out over 281 acres of meadows, athletic fields, native woodlands, and recreational areas on the city’s northwest side. After a picnic, enjoy the playground, biking trails, or tennis courts. You’re likely to spot a wild animal or two here while listening to the warbling of the throngs of songbirds. What to eat: Pink Flamingo To-Go, which is temporarily delivery-only, whips up grab-and-go salads, rice balls, veggie curry, and flavorful lemonades. The beloved Dutch Girl Donuts has been met with long lines of satisfied customers since 1947. Next door, Cynt-Sensational Popcorn will bring its famous array of seasoned popcorn to a storefront this season." - Monica Williams
