Yellow Light Coffee and Donuts

Yellow Light Coffee & Donuts is a standout Detroit-based café that combines comfort food with a warm, inviting atmosphere. Their Michigan Central location marks a historic milestone as the first food-and-beverage tenant in the iconic Michigan Central Station, a landmark that had been vacant since 1988. The foodservice design for this unique space reflects the brand’s commitment to quality and innovation, helping bring this beloved local brand to one of Detroit’s most storied sites. Known for their handcrafted donuts, house-roasted coffee, and delicious biscuit sandwiches, Yellow Light offers a truly memorable culinary experience in the heart of Detroit.
