Cafe Ollie – Something for Everyone!

I read about Cafe Ollie over on AnnArbor.com.  It sounded like a nice place, but I sort of forgot about it.  Then I saw that our Dark Horse Brewing friend, Joanna Hollyday, had liked their Facebook page which got me over to check out the page.  This is when I saw they were big supporters of Michigan beer (yes!) and had lots of vegan options on their menu (YES!).  Our first visit was actually on Mother’s day with Brenda’s boys for brunch, which was great.  We decided we needed to come back for dinner and a beverage, so we may our way over there a couple weeks ago after work.

Cafe Ollie is located in beautiful (and historic!) Depot Town in Ypsilanti, Michigan.

 

When you walk in to Cafe Ollie,  you feel like you went back in time.  Its like a cool record store (remember School Kids??) and a funky coffee house.

 

 

There are some comfy chairs to enjoy a coffee (or hell, even a beer or two).

 

There is also some fun booths and tables to enjoy a meal.

 

If you are looking for great Michigan product, Michigan General Store is located right next door!

 

All right Charlie, hows the food??

Cafe Ollie’s menu really does have it all.  Just check out this menu!

 

There is a really nice selection of Michigan beers.

 

And something I’ve never seen before…BEER SHAKES!  I’d almost go back to some dairy to try one of those 🙂

 

We started out dinner with a Crooked Tree and a nice Sauvignon Blanc.

 

I opted for the Buffalo 66.  A tofu wrap with a tangy ranch buffalo sauce.  Yep, not a vegan sandwich 🙂

 

Brenda went with the Dimitri.  A grilled vegan cheese, avocado, and tomato sandwich on ciabatta with a side of asian slaw (totally vegan approved 🙂

 

We both really enjoyed our meals and beverages.  Brenda was a happy customer!

 

Cafe Ollie is a great place to hangout and grab some grub.  The staff at Cafe Ollie are very friendly and helpful.  Be sure to add Cafe Ollie to your dining out options.
