What The Detroit News said
"Ellen's Bakery & Cafe rolls quality into every dish." We've been baking that way since 1999, and we're not planning to change.
What our guests are saying
Ellen's has a fantastic bakery and coffee shop and to top it off their cafe menu is just as unique and flavorful. Definitely worth the time if you value great taste and service.

I stumbled across this place last week. I took my wife there for a special breakfast today and she loved it! Best breakfast place! EVERYTHING tasted great. Even the water was better somehow? Crazy but true. Take your special someone here, but don't tell too many people about it, please!

Phenomenal food & service. 12/10!!! First time customers and already anticipating our next visit. Breakfast tacos were amazing, as well as the spicy sausage hash & the brioche French toast. Didn't catch our servers name but he was so accommodating and polite.

I like to bring my two-year-old in here in the mornings and have some coffee and a snack. All the staff is so nice. I love the biscotti. I now get all my special occasion cakes here. Used to use Sweet Dreams but they charge extra to use a credit card. Carrot cake and white chocolate strawberry shortcake are first rate. Can’t wait to try more flavors !
