The Corner Social

A nice cute set up of a corner coffee shop... they have a good variety of options for breakfast to choose from ... I liked thier avocado toast and 3 cheese sandwich... coffee too is delicious and tasty. A nice place to visit for a quick breakfast or coffee.

I enjoy this place because it's local. Is it the best coffee? No. Does it have differentiating food? No. But, it's welcoming, friendly, and they have a variety of food and beverage to satisfy tastebuds - plus it's close. Petoskey peppermint, corner social, and s'more lattes are up there in top flavors. Sometimes the coffees have an artificial cherry flavor and I can't figure out why aside from cross contamination of flavored beans and/or syrups. The ice cream + espresso drinks are really good if you're in the mood for something more filling. What would be really nice is if they added more unique pastries to the offering rather than bulk food options (large muffins, pound cake slices, etc). That said, they do have some prepackaged cookies plus black and white cookies from a local baker which is a rare find here - they are really good, too!

What a gem in downtown South Lyon! This is a cafe + bar + ice cream shop all in one. Me and my friends came on a Sunday evening for drinks and it was busy. They had so much to choose from including boozy milkshakes and coffee drinks. FYI: you can drinks to-go.I ordered a spring special Lychee martini and my friends ordered a spring special Strawberry cocktail and the Berry Social. All the drinks were incredibly tasty -- definitely on the sweeter side but that's exactly what I like. I also tried the Hammi sandwich. Simple but delicious. Plenty of seating inside. I'm looking forward to trying the coffee and ice cream next time

I was searching for a new restaurant after golf with the wife and read a little about Corner Social so we gave it a try. Nice little patio in the heart of South Lyon. I also read about the history from a coffee shop to fill a niche for cocktails and small plates. Perfect, except the only time small plates are served are during special events. Otherwise it's a unique sandwich menu and a few apps. Just not what we were looking for at the time. I will try them again if the occasion should arise. Service was a little slow and not attentive for the 15. min we sat at the high-top. We did end up leaving.

A friend and I had dinner here tonight. I'm only doing patio dining currently, and they have a really nice outdoor area; she lives in South Lyon and had recommended it.I had the pulled pork sandwich, which comes on Zingerman's bread - it's $9 but is huge. It does not come with any sides, but I wasn't super hungry. My friend had the grilled cheese sandwich (with like 3 cheeses! yum) on their gluten-free bread. We both ended up getting dessert - she had a shake, and I had vegan black cherry ice cream, which was DELICIOUS. Both were Guernsey ice cream, and I guess the vegan ice cream is made with oat milk; I could barely tell it was non-dairy. A single scoop was $4 before tax but the portion I got was very large. The pulled pork sandwich was just okay (probably because I got it sans cheese) but this place gets 4 stars from me for the atmosphere, and also its COVID preparations: there were only two other people on the patio besides us, and when they left, the staff wiped down the table promptly. We came inside to order the ice cream and when we got back our table had been cleared too. Everything seemed really clean inside including the bathroom, as well. Cute place and hopefully I'll return at some point.

I ordered a lavender lotus latte, which I think would have been really good but it wasn't mixed at all. That happens everywhere though: I just know to mix next time. Really nice espresso flavor.I also got a Trifecta, which is a grilled cheese sandwich. This was really good. Very rich and crispy.The service was excellent. The baristas and other staff were really friendly and helpful.We went on Sunday afternoon and it was busy and noisy but not too bad. The patio is nice. They have a ton of flower beds and hanging plants, very pretty. The inside is pretty cozy looking. Accessibility is a problem, as is usual for places in old buildings. The doorways are not wheelchair accessible, although the one stair is marked with yellow paint. I didn't see it, but my companion said the women's restroom has unmarked steps but also had a wheelchair ramp. Took a star off for the lack of accessibility. Other than that problem, I was happy to find this place close to where I live.

Met a friend here. Great spot for coffee (especially if you're over 21 and like to add a little somethin-somethin to the coffee)The breakfast menu isn't very extensive but what I ate was delicious. Staff was friendly and the old style tin ceiling made for cool atmosphere. There's a bunch of board games, which was a nice touch.

The food was great. Fresh and tasty. Wide selections of food and drink. Portioning was fair. Prices are low for locals. We felt welcome and warm. Right near the road with indoor and outdoor seating.

We both said how good our sandwich was after every bite the chicken salad was very good. The celery and walnuts give it a nice crunch

We got ham sandwich which was good and the only vegetarian option for food was the avocado toast. I told them to leave the egg off.If you order the avocado toast just beware that the egg is like a frozen premade egg that is jsut defrosted and the avocado is not a real avocado it's the spread kind that comes in a big container and it's not very good. Disappointing for $10 to not get real avocado (or egg). Bread was not very good just a single piece of hard toast. Had everything seasoning on it too and was too salty. The cheese danish was food. The very chocolate brownie was actually bad, like not chewy, not very chocolate definitely disappointing, how can a brownie not be good oh well.Almond croissant was okay, dry on the outside. Just make your own with Trader Joe's frozen one. Nutella latte was good!!
