The 38 Best Restaurants in Detroit, Spring 2025 | Eater Detroit

"This quintessential all-day brunch spot has been a downtown stalwart for more than a decade. The restaurant, named after the city’s famous former department store called Hudson’s, has a reputation for its mountain of savory and sweet breakfast dishes, so much so that lines can usually be seen overflowing onto Woodward on any given weekend. The red velvet pancakes with a generous cream cheese drizzle and the voodoo eggs Benedict with corn cakes, Spanish chorizo, cheddar cheese, and ranchero sauce are legendary. Fresh-squeezed juice, teas, coffee, and espresso drinks are available, as are brunch-worthy cocktails like the Pancake Breakfast Shot made with TAP Canadian maple whisky, maple-infused simple syrup, orange juice, and a slice of bacon. Online ordering is available. Know before you go: As an alternative to searching for parking downtown, Hudson Cafe now has locations in Troy and Northville." - Serena Maria Daniels
