GREAT COFFEE. Respite usually has a house blend available and it's usually the way to go. Besides great coffee, they offer healthy smoothies and a small, local-sourced breakfast and lunch menu. The owner might be the sweetest lady you have ever met. Go meet her and drink her coffee. Live music on some nights.

Eclectic menu that showcases all good things grown in Michigan and thoughtful wine list. Great for a nice dinner out, but be aware that this place gets crowded fast, so the earlier you can get there - the better.

BEST. DELI. SO. MANY. GOOD. THINGS. Farmhouse puts a lot of love into their food, and is worth it, but they are a small shop. Calling and ordering ahead is HIGHLY recommended, especially on the weekends. Nice people that work there, but they haven't figured out how to handle the large hungry weekend crowds that want their sandwiches yet.
