Nestled in the heart of Monroe, Michigan, and just off Exit 11 of I-75, our cozy café offers the finest artisan coffee, expertly brewed to perfection. Whether you're here for a quick espresso, a leisurely latte, or a handcrafted cold brew, we guarantee every sip will delight your senses. Come experience the best coffee in Monroe—where warmth meets quality.

 

People rave about our amazing lattes with a choice of over 30 flavors, our Signature Paula’s Perfect Latte, with pistachio, coconut, and cinnamon with just a dash of cayenne, or maybe our House Special Cold Brew – Slow-steeped for 8-10 hours to extract bold flavors, our cold brew is smooth, refreshing, and packed with rich, chocolatey notes. Made from locally roasted beans and served chilled for the ultimate pick-me-up. Maybe our Vegan Oat Milk Mocha – Indulge in a decadent blend of dark chocolate, espresso, and creamy oat milk. This dairy-free delight offers a perfect harmony of bold and sweet flavors, topped with cocoa shavings.

 

Are you hungry? Our Signature Stuffed Hashbrowns are unlike anything you have ever had. Stuffed with eggs, cheese, and meat, and toasted to perfection in our wafflizers. In addition, try waffles, breakfast sandwiches, or did we tell you about Ron's Famous Biscuits and Gravy? House made muffins, Neen’s delicious cookies, treats & snacks are also available. Our food is in a different league over the big box restaurants.

Our Story
Introducing Our Cold Brew Coffee 

Here at Fresh Start CoffeeHouse, we make cold brew coffee using this beautiful Yama Glass Cold Brew Maker with slow drip technology. This premium, innovative drip cold brew system ensures the richest, acidic free, full-bodied cold brew coffee. Through a unique 8-hour process using pure filtered ice water, cold drip coffee produces a unique flavor not found in regular brewed coffee. This method passes individual drops of ice water over a bed of coffee grounds. The result is a strong, smooth and delicious cold brew.
