I wish we lived closer. The building and decor produces a space you want to spend time! The Bourbon Vanilla Latte and Coldbrew were really delicious. Great little courtyard out front to enjoy your drinks in the sunshine.

Absolutely one of the best lattes in town. The ambience is fantastic - very much looking forward to reading a book with a coffee here once the pandemic subsides. There are a few comfortable seats and a long table that looks great for laptop work. The cafe is up some stairs in a courtyard behind the building, adding to the ambience. Antique items from Detroit (and a moose head) nicely tie the room together. For now, it was worth the drive just to pick up a couple of lattes and some ground coffee.

Super friendly, really warm and relaxing spot. Upstairs with the view is great. Coffee is also fantastic.

A cute, if gentrified, coffee shop. The barista knows what hes doing, and they have great espresso.

I live right down the street from this place and it has become my regular spot! Such a cool location in a barber shop and everyone is friendly. The barista is always on point and makes a killer latte. Ive only had good experiences here

Maybe the best chai lattes in the metro area. Great staff too.

Very relaxed vibe, complimentary wifi, and available outlets for your electronics to charge. With a simple selection of coffee and specialty drinks. Located above the barbershop, so enter from the barbershop.

I loved the vibe. Stopped in with a friend after doing some shopping. The decor was feels like someones garage or basement. I would very transitional shabby chic vibe You have to take stairs to get up there. Not a huge place. I wish the drinks were bigger.

Love this space. Upper floor in a barbor shop. Well made coffee. With pour overs available. Not quite the freshest roast... But latte, and more importantly, the maple latte is beautiful and delicious. Good setting for reading and change of scenery from normal coffee shops. I recommend a visit.

Amazing espresso, brewed perfectly. Not sour, not over extracted and bitter. Completely delicious.The coffee shop is on the 2nd floor and a bit on the hipster side, but it’s well worth the hassle.

Great place to sit down and do work. Awesome view of downtown Detroit. Love that its on the second level. The interior design is pretty cool too. Gives it a chill vibe.

We were visiting Detroit for the first time, went to LUCKY Coffee shop on Friday 9/3/21 late afternoon. Anywhere we travel, we find local coffee shops, and if we like the coffee/ambiance/baristas, we will buy a pound of coffee and apparel if available. the building is cool, decor cool. Front desk personel were friendly. the LUCKY BARISTA was stand off-ish, scowled several times at me, gave me the passive aggressive stare down. I attempted to engage with him several times asking him about the coffee menu, what roaster they use, any recommendations. I got minimal feedback from him, he even rolled his eyes when I did not know what neighborhood his roaster was in. I told him I was from out of state and did not know what street he was referring to. The coffee shop was dusty, unorganized, items spilling out from the open storage shelves. we wont be back.

Best cold brew Ive ever tasted! Its tucked away upstairs on top of the barbershop below. Grew brews and ambience.

Another great local place I visited today. Good coffee, good treats. Meant to snap a few pics of the cookies but I was hungry and forgot, will stop by to rectify this mistake next time Im in the area. In the big picture Ill say there is nothing wrong with Starbucks, but if I want a cup of coffee Id rather swing by a place like this. Local, much better decor/vibe/ atmosphere. Nice and mellow, not the hustle and bustle of a crazy overloaded coffee chain, is rather read my book here. My coffee choices are pretty basic, black or Americano. They nailed both. Stop by next time youre at the barbershop downstairs.

Very hipster chic coffee shop above a barbershop. Beautiful decor and good ambiance for studying if you can get a table.There was one lone barista working his tail off so it was a bit slow. But the coffee was good!

We stopped in right before he closed. And, we ordered two dirty chais. I’ve got to say we both agree that the drinks were fantastic. They were top notch coffee...

Ordered coffee on the website (luckydetroit.com). They took my payment and sent nothing. Couldnt reach anyone to figure out what was going on, even after calling Detroit Barbers (which is the PayPal name and is located at the same address as Lucky Detroit).PayPal refunded the payment after no response from the seller, no idea what the malfunction is but dont order from their site--seems nobody is fulfilling those orders!

The place is a little difficult to find. It is upstairs from the barber shop and to the right. Its a small coffee bar with limited seating. But cute and classy decor and reasonably priced yummy coffee. They did have non dairy milk options also and the nitro cold brew.

This is a great spot to get some craft coffee and enjoy a well curated space with tons of natural light, fun music, and interesting decor. I recommend the vanilla bourbon latte. Take some whole bean home with you, too. Anecdotally, it makes a great home brew with prominent chocolate notes.

You have to try the vanilla bourbon! A unique coffee shop in Corktown. The pastries were fantastic! The coffee was also wonderful. The atmosphere is chill... But how could it not be with a bull moose hanging on the wall??

Been to the barbershop here and gave a 1 star. Not sure why I thought the coffee shop would be better. Coffee was super watered down. Way overpriced for sub par drip coffee. Service was rude. Don’t waste your time or money here.Editing my review after the business response:I think the response to my review and every other negative review - consistent theme of rude staff - speaks to the attitude you get from from the business.

Lucky Detroit is a great place to stop by to grab a coffee in Corktown. There is street parking that’s free on the side street and metered parking on Michigan Avenue. They have great house coffee and great Chai tea ☕️ and other specialty drinks. They are adjacent to a barbershop 💈 and the whole experience is pretty cool. The coffee shop is on the second floor and they have a few places to read and study 📖 or have a meeting.

A coffee shop, in a barber shop, in a queer neighborhood. No more inception. An unexpected location and a beautiful entrance to a simple and unique coffee shop. Coffee was good but I think their latte had too much milk. Place would be a wonderful place to hang out in summer as their unique touches were too cold to experience in winter. Ordered a muffin and it was crispy and beyond expectations. Not much to eat, however a unique mixture of coffee and barbershop.

I normally remove a star when the bathroom is lacking changing table. However, I dont think I would come here with my kids.The café is upstairs not wheel chair friendly.Place is super clean neatly taken care of. The ambiance is super nice - like super hipster. Really like the decorum.Service is very friendly and nice. Not too loud and comfortable. I would easily spend time there regularly.The pricing is high for a coffee $4to5...But the coffee is actually very good.I would definitely come back and hang around regularly.

Great jazz vibe and terrific double dirty chai! I went before work so it was a little hard to find the door in the side of the building but they helped by putting signs on the sidewalk. Worth the search.

Great espresso pull, where as the pour could use some work. The cheesecake bites were nice though too! The window views make this a nice sit down hub!

Probably the best pour over coffee Ive had in Detroit. Ive visited most of the local coffee shops in the greater Detroit area.I visited Lucky Detroit Coffee and Espresso on a Tuesday and ordered a coffee from Ethiopia. Naturally processed coffees are typically very fruity in flavor and aroma and this coffee lived up to the expectations. The fruity aromas and flavors were undeniable! There was a great balance in the cup. The acidity level was pleasant, not too strong. It was naturally sweet and had an enjoyable aftertaste. I loved the coffee so much I was so sad I couldnt go back for another cup before I left the area. If I didnt have enough coffee at home I would have bought a bag of the coffee to brew it at home.The coffee shop is beautiful very old school, relaxing and everyone is very nice.

Pour over coffee was weak. Barista less than cordial. we have been hear a few times and apparently just stopping in with small kids is frowned upon (didnt even attempt to sit down). The barbershop downstairs is AWESOME and their staff very friendly.

Review №56

Coffee creamer was expired chunky and sour!! When we poured it we told the “barista” and he said that organic milk gets chunky, even though it smelled sour. It said on the bottle it expires tomorrow ( everyone knows that date on the carton is an estimate). He then got a new bottle out which also said it expired tomorrow 10/30 (same date) and that was still chunky! He then heated it up until it melted the chunks and just poured it in our coffee. The creamer curdled! I have bought organic milk my whole life and it never got chunky unless it was expired!! It smelled so sour me and my sister had to through it away. Waste.

Pretty chill environment but the coffee isnt really good and has a burnt taste. Feels like all these other new Detroit business with random old stuff laying around as decor and industrial-ish fixtures... So i dont feel like Id be missing anything by never going here again.
