Germack Coffee Roasting Co.:An Instant Detroit Classic!

[Gannon]

Finally made it to the new Germack Coffee Roasting Company in Eastern Market this morning.

They really knocked it out of the park...an instant classic in every way. The coffee operation is nearly everything I'd ever dream of in a non-artsy coffeehouse...on-site roasting, lotsa space, and a very friendly vibe...serving amazing coffee, of course!

They will make the coffee just about any way you'd like...if you are in a rush, they've pre-made coffees of the day in insulated urns...or will do French Press or Pour-Overs, or what I've also heard called Fresh Pours.

While you wait, the staff is totally interesting and engaging and welcoming...and one wander around the other side of the counter discovers some of the best of the old Rafal Spice haunting the walls. They even put the coffees in a similar space, pretty funny. I love the honoring of tradition and history.

The decor is all rough brick and open-beams...and simply f'in' cool. Lotsa windows and doors, it will be interesting to see how the traffic flows on busy Saturdays.


Ya gotta try this place out...


Cheers,
John
