Bruegger's on Detroit is one of the few places I can call myself somewhat of a "regular." I frequent Bruegger's before work and have gotten to know some of the staff, who is very friendly and helpful! They're always more than happy to share their recommendations with you.
I rotate between a bagel and cream cheese and various breakfast sandwiches. I usually enjoy the everything bagel as my go-to, but they have amazing monthly specials that vary from pumpkin, ranch, and cheesey taters. The breakfast sandwiches are delicious, as well.
One of my ultimate favorites from Bruegger's is their coffee. In my opinion, this beats Starbucks and Panera by a landslide. I particularly enjoy the hazelnut coffee, but also enjoy their monthly special flavors like french toast, pumpkin, and coconut. Their coffee is strong, but not so bold or acidic that it is difficult to drink black. The hazelnut in particular has a gentle sweet taste that is the perfect way to ease into the day.
The parking lot at the Crocker Park Promenade has plenty of spots, particularly in the morning, so Bruegger's is a convenient stop. During peak morning hours, their is often a line, but it moves quickly. I hope to stop in for lunch next to try out their lunch sandwiches!
