Dearborn Activities

Things To Do!

The Henry Ford and Greenfield Village:

Total classics!

Dearborn Brewing:
A local microbrewery with great beers and lots of local charm. They also regularly host the Barley Brothers, Dan, and Patrick’s Irish band.

Two Joyce family food favs: The Emhurst and Miller’s Bar
Great burgers, they only take cash though.

The Custard Hut:
They have great custard (Dan prefers custard to ice cream) and you can order it between two Eggo waffles and dipped in chocolate... seriously amazing. Watch out!

Cedarland Restaurant:
They have the best chicken schwarma & lentil soup!

The Hill:
All of your shopping needs in one place. Target, Meijer, Home Depot, DSW, etc.!

Dearborn Coney Island:
A local watering hole. Super cheap diner food, open 24 hours.

Ford Field Park:
It is a beautiful local park that Dan and I regularly run through.

Detroit Activities

Things To Do!

The Bronx is kind of where our love began and they have THE BEST burger in Detroit. It’s huge and you can get a cheap beer with it.


Shopping:

There are shops in midtown we love, particularly City Bird, Nora, and Nest. The Shinola store is also right across the street. 

John K King Used & Rare Books:

It is THE MOST AMAZING BOOKSTORE EVER. Floors upon floors, aisles upon aisles, stacks upon stacks of new and used books. 

Masonic Temple:

It is one of our favorite places in detroit and SO beautiful inside. They occasionally offer tours.

The casinos are always open.

Belle Isle

A beautiful park (does require a pass). The aquarium and conservatory are also really cool to tour.
