Morning Glory Coffee & Pastries

It was amazing the donuts and the scones areOnly a thing that they can make.And the peoplethat work there are really nice!

I stumbled into morning glory for a quiet spot for a book read and it felt like i walked into another world. The ambiance is amazing and is so quaint and old school. The seating wasn't too comfortable as to not keep me for the entire day but just enough to get a couple pages in. the staff is super friendly and they made my matcha really quick. It was a little overly sweet and didn't taste as earthy as I like my matcha to. There's street parking out front and overall a decent quick fix for a pastry and cup of joe

First 5 stars for the counter service everyone is always great!! But...I was thrilled to learn that a new pastry chef was taking charge at this cafe. Having moved to GP less than a year ago...Michigan, in fact, I've been eager to discover my go-to spots. Unfortunately, the offerings so far have been underwhelming. The seven-layer bar is muddled, the cupcakes are crumbly, and the croissants and other laminated pastries lack the finesse that indicates a skilled baker. As someone who makes kouign amann for holidays and seek out bakeries on my travels, I'd say I have a keen eye for well-crafted pastries, and the ones here don't meet that standard. I'm beginning to question the new pastry chef's credentials or whether she has properly trained her team. However, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, hoping they improve as they settle in and overcome any initial jitters.

On a popular Street in Grosse Pointe Farms. Charming outside seating. Street parking and a lot behind.As I walked in I was greeted by Patsy Cline on the radio. Upon first entry the shop is warm and inviting. The board is kind of small with coffee options and hard to read. I wanted a latte but both flavors I wanted were out of stock. Ended up getting a small coffee cost about three dollars. The cream was in little packets which I detest I'm not at McDonald's. The barista was more than happy to pour cold cream into my coffee but seemed taken back that I asked. It's 2 o'clock in the afternoon the coffee looks like it's been sitting out for a while. Even though I was told it was freshly made. It doesn't taste fresh. I took a few sips and threw it away. The pastries looked absolutely beautiful. The family sitting inside seem to be enjoying themselves. I'm always about supporting local coffee shops. However... old coffeeno cold cream out of flavors Two stars from me.

Morning glory coffee is a ok place to come but it is not the best.The ambiance was cold and the cake pop was mediocre. The coffee however was good and the staff was kind.Overall I wish I could give this more but it does not meet the standard.

First impressions and atmosphere: Very cute and cozy. Nice gated, stonecarved courtyard for patio (heated) seating with a statue of a plump version of Michaelangelo's David, and indoor-outdoor fireplace as you walk into the shop. Oh, rrright. We're in boujee-land, kids!So, the indoor seating has an 'interesting' vibe with lots of safari-type decor; dark wood floors, highback chairs, high ceiling with lots of natural light. Then, you continue to walk into the middle part of the cafe with the display of the pastries, grab and go lunch items, and a menu which includes wine and mimosas (of course, in GPF): https://www.metroalive.com/include/pdf/10169-menu.11.18.pdf.The loo was clean, stocked, and warm. Not sure if there was background music playing.Service: Overall good. Friendly. Helpful. Knowledgeable.Victuals and Potables: Tasty pastries and visually appealing. We had the coffee, and just could NOT give it a fair score for taste because they had UHT mini moos for creamer. *cringe* Mini moos in coffee is like putting ketchup on a Wagyu steak, bumper stickers on a Rolls-Royce, and so on. *sigh* We had high hopes, Morning Glory. *IMO: Any coffee shop worth their salt offers REAL creamer. So, unless that changes, we will opt for tea instead.

I'd say it's all about the experience but it's so much more! While waiting for family, just down the street, I decided to go for coffee. Immediately, I fell in love with this romantically quaint and whimsical shop, it's a must see! I was greeted by a smiling, friendly face, helpful recommendations, and fabulous small town service! Yummy tasty treats paired with a hot, delicious mocha latte - win win!!!

Place was a mess, we went at about 10am on a Sunday (too late I know). The waitstaff was very stressed, they weren't very responsive or communicative. After a long line when we got to the front after hearing all these orders go out for bfast sandwiches they were out... of course. So we ordered two everything bagels, only one came out and it was a plain bagel. The crowd was rude, folks behind us were saying "I wouldn't have come here if I thought it looked this shabby". It was fine looking inside, the pastries look tasty but the bagel was a Thomas' bagel and there was a side of Philadelphia cream cheese inside the plastic container. Definitely was not worth $6 due to getting 1/3 of what I ordered. Not to mention it took 25 minutes for 1 bagel. I wouldn't recommend.

I went Christmas Eve in a panic when I realized I hadn't thought out what desserts I was bringing to Christmas dinner. Great selection everyone raved about all different things I got and the service was amazing

I picked up a birthday cake out of the case.Lovely chocolate with white buttercream icing- pink with edible glitter and flowers. Even more delicious when at room temperature and all flavors can be most appreciated. When I received the cake, I was asked when was the actual birthday. Then a note was written on the box, " Happy Birthday Virgo," Very sweet!Thanks for making our celebration extra special!!!!
