Should I Order At Each One
Here is exactly what to order at each Corktown spot for the ideal coffee and pastry pairing.
1
Alba
Known for blending Mexican and Italian coffee culture in the sunlit former Astro space. Order the spiced café de olla with a tender house-baked concha dusted with sugar. Expect to spend around $10 a head, and arrive before 10 a.m. for the best pastry selection.
2
Yellow Light Coffee & Donuts
Known for scratch-made yeast and cake donuts alongside house-roasted beans in Michigan Central's grand concourse. Order the warm brown butter cinnamon donut with a classic drip coffee. It is a quick counter order at about $7 a head; arrive early because popular flavors often sell out by noon.
3
Folk
Known for vibrant Australian-style brunch fare and an exceptional biodynamic wine and coffee program. Order the sweet-spiced cardamom bun paired with a silky flat white. It runs around $20 a head with hospitality built into the check; book a table ahead on weekends to bypass the brunch crowd.
4
James Oliver Coffee Co.
Known for house-roasted single-origin coffees and hearty baked breakfast treats. Order the tender blueberry lemon biscuit paired with a pour-over of Ethiopia Harrar coffee. You will spend around $8 a head for a fast counter stop, ideal for an unhurried weekday morning.
- Momento Gelato and Coffee — Known for scratch-made Italian desserts crafted with techniques learned in Bologna. Order the freshly filled cannoli piped to order with sweet ricotta alongside a pulled espresso. It runs about $8 a head, and the airy outdoor patio is the best place to sit on sunny afternoons.
