“There’s great seating inside and out, the coffee is fantastic, staff is so kind and great dietary/lifestyle options both in coffee and cocktails/beers.”
“Since it opened, Lowertown has energized the vibe of our neighborhood! We love this place, love the coffee and the drinks. Especially the outdoor seating when the weather is nice is hard to beat!”
Yoni Pinto
“This place has quickly become one of my favorite spots in town. The drinks are good, there's ample outdoor and indoor space, and the atmosphere is lovely. It's far enough away from campus that it's not so congested and it's rather peaceful there. Highly recommend :)”
Emma Flynn
“The coffee is great, using Hyperion Coffee beans, and it's a great place to work during the day. At night, Lowertown turns into a bar, and hosts my favorite trivia night. The drinks are reasonably priced, service is good, and it's a fun place to hang out with friends.”
Nishant Kheterpal
“Love this place so much! Great vibes, super friendly staff, and the best cold brew in town. I also love that it turns into a bar at night. It’s the perfect laid back spot to grab a drink, especially on their patio around the fire pits, and their cocktails are delicious!”
Emily Reedy
“The espresso drinks are excellent. They do great classic cocktails and always have new unique options. Good variety of beer. My favorite thing is the selection of non-alcoholic/low alcohol options.”
Sarah Eppley
“The chai tea was amazing, and the music created a great vibe. Everyone around me was polite and respectful, making it a comfortable space to focus. I just wish they had more pastry or food options when I visited!”
Paige Ciuzicki
“Big community people who host food trucks consistently and Tuesday trivia nights that are fantastic! Love the fact that they allow/encourage outside food so we can make a day/night of it! As a regular, we also are grateful for the ways they remember orders, names, dogs, etc. The best spot in Ann Arbor!”
Erin Prior
“The perfect neighborhood spot!! We love coming here any time of day whether to meet with friends or co-workers, sometimes for work but mostly for time to relax and hang.”
Erin Prior
“We love Lowertown! Even if there were other cafes and bars nearby I would choose Lowertown every time. The people who work there are lovely and friendly - baristas and bartenders alike. I love the concept of a coffeeshop by day and bar by night.”
Sarah Eppley
“Great coffee, one of the best Mocha drinks I have had, and I LOVE cafes with real mugs.”
Savannah Coppersmith
“Within the first 3 weeks of them opening, I became a regular because i love it so much. The coffee is SO good and their drinks are delicious.”
Kate Miller
“Excellent coffee, excellent cocktails, great vibe, great outdoor seating, what's not to like? It's a most welcome addition to the neighborhood.”
Ronen Steinberg
“Incredible new addition to the neighborhood! Great for reading and working in the morning, or for going out with friends in the evening. Drinks are delicious, coffee is great, staff is super helpful.”
Will B.
“Wanted to host a casual birthday party for my friend, so I emailed to see if we could reserve a table for a larger group. They not only held a table for us, but had the tables decorated with happy birthday signs before we even got there. Employees were so so sweet to us. 11/10 experience and can't recommend enough.”
H. L.
“Whether you're an easy going any-coffee person or a hipster coffee snob who home roasts like me, you'll like Lowertown. It felt like a hybrid garden oasis and speakeasy.”
Kevin F.
“As a coffee enthusiast and cafe aficionado, I absolutely adore Lo Bar & Cafe. They truly elevate the coffee experience.”
