Next Door Café

Coffee, Pastries, Cakes, Chocolate, Candy, and Gelato

Looking for a sweet treat? Come to our Next Door Café, where we’ve got cakes, pies, cupcakes, gelato, cookies, brownies, chocolates, candies, oh my, the list is as long as it is sweet. We’ve done our due diligence in curating an amazing array of chocolates, some made right here in Ann Arbor, others from across the U.S. or abroad. Whether you are looking for a special gift or a treat for yourself, our chocolate and confections will impress. Our baked goods from Zingerman’s Bakehouse alongside a cup of fresh roasted coffee from Zingerman’s Coffee Co. are reason enough to pay the Deli a visit.

Products We're Featuring

Next Door Café Drink of the Month: Mexican Drinking Chocolate

This traditional Mexican chocolate (cacao, sugar, cinnamon and almonds!) has been stone ground and not heavily refined, thus lending to a crunchy texture and bright flavor. The almonds add a little richness to the body. The cinnamon is gracefully balanced, adding a little spice without being overdone. We like to combine chopped Mexican chocolate with water, but milk and almond milk are also excellent combinations.
$3.50/each

Zingerman’s Coffee Co. Roaster’s Pick: Uganda Gibuzale
We are excited to feature a coffee from the Gibuzale Washing Station in Uganda. Plenty of rainfall and volcanic soil make for rich soil for coffee growing! Juicy, balanced, bright, and winey medium roast with a note of white grape.
$17.99/12oz bag
