Dessert Oasis Coffee Roasters Royal Oak

Dessert Oasis Coffee Roasters has served Southeast Michigan since 2009, and their beans are roasted at the original Rochester location. The Royal Oak café is roomy, with lounge chairs, work tables, wifi and outlets. There's an open mic on Wednesdays on a small stage, and the playlist runs from funk to chill.

The espresso and cappuccinos are well made, and the pour-overs are a highlight. The cheesecakes and pastries are house-made, with vegan and gluten-free options. Seasonal drinks rotate, and you can buy beans that change with the seasons.
