What sets Australian coffee apart? Let's start with size. Down Under, they believe in savoring smaller doses of espresso-based magic, served in cups ranging from 8 to 12 ounces. Contrast this with the extra large portions commonly found in American coffee shops, where 20+ ounce cups reign supreme.
But it's not just about the size; it's about the artistry behind each cup. Australian coffee culture thrives on three mainstay beverages: the Flat White, Cappuccino, and Latte. Don't be fooled by the common thread of a single espresso shot and steamed milk—each sip offers a distinctive flavor and texture, cherished by Aussies for their unique profiles.
What's the secret ingredient? Proud Mary Coffee, an award-winning Australian roaster, joins forces with this Detroit gem, ensuring each brew maintains that authentic Australian taste.
Coffee Down Under's address is 607 Shelby St. Ste. B, Detroit, MI 4822. They are open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays and Mondays, extending their hours till 11 p.m. from Tuesday through Thursday, and keeping the doors open till midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.
