"While the country fell in love with and then became saturated with food halls, Detroiters sat back and waited patiently for years for the arrival of their first one. Detroit Shipping Company underwent location changes, name changes, and frequent setbacks with zoning and permitting for years before making its debut in mid-July. The finished Cass Corridor food hall is comprised of 21 stacked shipping containers and features multiple bars, a stage, and, of course, several well-trafficked food stalls. Customers are still awaiting the full lineup to debut as complications with international partners resulted in some restaurants dropping out, but there’s still a lot to love including Bangkok 96 Street Food, Brujo Tacos & Tapas, Coop, and -320º Coffee & Creamery." - Brenna Houck
