Avalon Cafe And Kitchen

Great food! We enjoyed the Mushroom Burger, the Roasted Veggie Bowl (with Tofu), the blueberry pancakes from the kids menu, the mushroom gravy, and the potato cakes. The Avocado toast plated well but wasn't as tasty (the avocado was bland and the toast had the overpowering bitter taste of olive oil) but everything else was top notch. Would highly recommend going to Avalon. Also, the staff was super polite and great hosts :)

We found this cafe while walking through downtown and trying to find a nice place to eat, and I am beyond glad that we stopped here! The service here was absolutely incredible! I unfortunately didn’t catch our server’s name, but she was training during our visit. She was wonderful to us! She was very attentive and extremely pleasant to talk to. The food and drinks were also amazing! I got the lavender lemonade and the may spring toast, and they were both delicious! Not only did they come out quickly, but they were also very reasonably priced. The overall atmosphere of this cafe was just so wonderful and comforting. I especially appreciated that they brought us water before we even ordered. We don’t live in the area, but I wouldn’t be above driving all the way to Ann Arbor just to eat here again! Thank you!! :)

5 STARS FOR SERVICE! STAFF WERE ATTENTIVE! 4 STARS on food First time here! Heard so much about this place. It was roughly an hour+ wait on Saturday 1130am. Everything sounded great on the menu. We ordered the potato tacos ($13) and brassica bowl with chicken ($13+$4 for protein) to try. See pics. Portions were decent to fill you. Flavor wise, not out of this world for the two dishes but still enjoyed them. Potato tacos... soft tortillas were filled and nicely topped with the egg. The sauce was meh... didn't do much on the plate. Maybe a little spice would've helped kick it up or add some citrus, like lime, or something to brighten it like cilantro or greens for garnish. Brassica bowl with the chicken added was very good. Liked the combination of ingredients. Healthy. Flavors relied on the mustard vinaigrette to dress this bowl. Wanted more of it. The hummus was more secondary for me. Didn't really need it. It would be good as a side with a slice of pita or something to dip. I would order this again. Definitely will go back to try other items on the menu!

We had the best breakfast here! Great service from the friendly staff and food was fresh, hot and delicious! I had the omelet with bacon, spinach and Swiss cheese that came with toast, finger potatoes and field greens. My granddaughter had the quinoa dark chocolate pancakes. We shared both and still had food left over to take home. We stopped in the store section on our way out and bought 2 small loaves of the bread of the month. The loaves were HUGE! I could smell that fresh bread all the way home. Now I can't wait to go back and try a new item on the menu. Definitely one of the best places to dine in Ann Arbor.
