The Fern

Just went here after playing pickleball. I love the the coffee is off the main downtown royal oak area with plenty of street parking. The design and decor itself is so cute with the green paint on the outside and cute design on the inside. I got the Gingerbread Chai Latte with Quad shots and my drink came out delicious . The chai actually taste like chai. The service was also quick.

Sooo many new cafes, so little time. The Fern was a manual find, discovered while Googling the RO area for new coffee spot to try. Lo and behold, The Fern was found.It was a quite a vibe inside! Plenty of plants and greenery. Guess I should've known by the name lol! With plenty of of open floor seating, a well appointed bar, a garage style door that opens to a patio for warmer days, and The Notebook being projected onto a retractable screen, I can see The Fern being a destination! The best part was their seasonal Elvis latte, of which I failed to capture the ingredients of. I do remember peanut butter and marshmallow fluff, so I'm assuming there's banana flavoring as well. Either way, it was extremely tasty! Pricing was typical coffee shop nowadays. Man, inflation is a snitch! The owner, who also was my barista, was welcoming and informative. I could see myself hanging here, especially once the temps pop up and their patio opens!

Wasn't sure if I was going to like anything because they don't have dairy and in the past I've never really liked my coffee with anything other than. I was pleasantly surprised with this drink, it actually kinda blew me away at how delicious it was. I like the variety of teas they have. I'll have to come back and try some. I'm not sure about the prices though, they seem kinda high. I would probably go more often if it were priced a little lower. I'll definitely be back. Good vibes.

Total vibe. Got this bomb drink (LOVE IN A CUP) tbh idk what's in it but it's refreshing not too sweet. Perfect for a summer day. Great open study place with friendly staff! Dog friendly!Just wish they had sandwiches or salads.

This is a cool little spot located off the main strip in Royal Oak. The variety of tea selection and latte floorings was very impressive. The service was amazing and she even suggested a certain combo of flavoring - vanilla and hazelnut - that was amazing. The place is fully decorated with trees and is dog friendly. Definitely a place to take it easy and read or study.

I got the banana bread herbal tea with oat milk and it was wonderful, it really smelled like banana bread! The ambiance and music is really calming and the barista was super nice and helpful as well! Great spot to study or work at with free wifi, I recommend checking it out!

This is such a great spot to work or catch up with a friend. There's lots of room, tables and parking. The drink menu is extensive but the people working were very helpful with giving guidance and recommendations. I had a peach tea which was quite sweet and tasty. I will definitely be back to try their matcha soon.

It's so pretty in here! Perfect place to come to study or read. The coffee is very good and you can also make modifications. I will definitely be back.

The Fern is so cute! They have lots of drink options and tons of seating. The barista was so nice and went through the menu with me. Students get 20% off too, which is great! I'll definitely come back here to study or drop in for a coffee.

Place has good vibes but doesn't have milk. Only oat and almond milk. Wouldn't go if you want actual milk.
