Just WOW!!!! I never knew this gem was so close to my home. When my friend was searching for a place to meet and have a cup of coffee and a snack, he just googled coffee places near me. Coffee First Cafe & Bake Shoppe was the first one that came up and Im SOOOOO glad it did. I ordered an iced white mocha and muffin and it was a great pair. We took a seat inside and we were able to talk with no issues with lots of other noise. I DEFINITELY recommend this fantastic coffee and bake shop, go check it out and let them know I sent you.

Polite, hospitable and very friendly. I wouldve found this place if I didnt see it on Groupon. Its practically in my backyard. This place is a gem. Prices are right and a great selection. Sorry Starbucks. I found a better place that I dont have to wait 25 minutes for a coffee.

Love a coffee shop full of people! The staff were kind and helpful! It’s an independent shop that doesn’t have the “polish” of a chain, which is exactly what we wanted while we were in town. The have comfy seating, games and quite a selection of drinks. The coffee was good and the spinach feta pastry was serviceable.

Coffee first cafe is Sterling Heights new little GEM!!I recommend you try their delicious baked goods and a number of there traditional and unique beverages. As for their prices they beat any Tim Hortons Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. The staff makes you feel like you are part of their family. And if you are looking for a welcoming place to start or end your day the clientele there makes you feel like you are part of our community. I recommend everyone give coffee first Cafe a chance. We need to support are small businesses in this day and age. Thank you to Janet and her family for staying strong and providing a safe and happy place to keep Community United.

This cafe is probably the cutest place I’ve EVER been to!! The iced mocha that I got was probably the best I’ve ever had and it was made relatively fast! What makes it even better was the fact that the staff was absolutely AMAZING!! They were the most polite people I’ve ever met and I wish I could have stayed longer! I definitely can see myself going back and I would 1000% suggest going there if you have time!!

A great local coffee shop. Friendly and personable service, cozy atmosphere, good variety of seating, and affordable prices. A small assortment of breakfast pastries and snacks also ensures you can find something that appeals to you. If you like the vibe of a local coffee shop and lack a place to stop in Sterling Heights, make sure you give Coffee First Cafe a try.

I couldn’t wait to stop on my way home, especially with the 3 p.m slump starting to set in and no nap in sight. This cozy cafe is a perfect place to get well brewed coffee and personal service. Janet introduced herself and told me about the specials on baked goods, which are perfect sized for a sweet treat without the guilt. I’ll be back tomorrow and highly recommend this as your new go-to for all things coffee!

We are extremely picky coffee drinkers! This place had amazing coffee, done just how we like it (which is not easy!) Beautiful and cozy inside, friendly staff and a very sweet owner!

Everything I’ve had here is so delicious. I’ve been drinking and enjoying their iced coffee all summer, but they also make the best lattes I’ve ever had and I’ve had more than my fair share.The atmosphere is so cute and they really add something special to the area.

Good coffee and ambiance and friendly staff. Outside this cafe looks very unassuming but inside its pretty cozy. Restroom is also clean. They have pastries and some food but we simply got donuts. I couldve given them 4 stars but their free sample apple cobbler earned the 5th star :)

Weird employee felt the need to stare me down for a solid 5 minutes while my 4 year and I were in our car outside about to go in. It’s not polite to stare. Didn’t your mother teach you that? It makes people self conscious.

Review №68

This place is a hidden gem! Sterling Heights very own independent coffee shop when there aren’t that many around. I honestly know of just one other place that does barista coffee.I hear it’s not been around for long (I’m visiting from out of town but visit often ) and it’s so refreshing to see a local, independent cafe run by such a sweet bunch.I have just tried their coffee but the baked items look delicious and everything is homemade.Probably could look into more local roasteries down the road, but good choice of going with Lavazza for now.The Cafe has a really cozy vibe. Love seeing local businesses thrive. Keep up the great work guys and hope to see you when I’m back again!
