"The baristas of the now defunct Great Lakes Coffee Roasting Company deserve a shoutout for organizing one of the biggest labor strikes locally this year." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Disappointing closure; perfect spot for late-night writing sessions with coffee or a cocktail." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Great Lakes Coffee Roasting Co. has shuttered its cafe indefinitely following a COVID-19 outbreak that, according to a report by the Metro Times, infected at least nine of 15 employees. The abrupt closure follows a battle between workers and company ownership over COVID protocols. The outbreak and subsequent closure illustrates the dire state of the restaurant industry, which is besieged by temporary closings in metro Detroit and across the country." - Serena Maria Daniels
"This contemporary open space in Detroit’s Midtown has a wide variety of coffee drinks to keep people caffeinated while they’re working on their laptops. The space offers tables to meet and greet over avocado toast or cucumber toast and a lavender latte. A full bar serves wine, beer, and cocktails. A new cafe at Rivertown Market also has tables for working." - Monica Williams
"Great Lakes Coffee in Midtown remains open for carryout coffee service and also offers a selection of beers and wines to take home." - Brenna Houck
