First off, the girl who works here with the glasses is such a doll! She’s so sweet! Not my first time here, probably won’t be my last. Atomic Coffee served here. Avocado Breakfast sandwich is a big sandwich full of flavor. Served with their crispy cubed potato’s covered with seasoning and a splash of melted butter. Thanks Mae’s!
My mom and i ordered their grilled cheese with french onion soup and it was phenomenal. I could not recommend it enough. My mom is also gluten free and they accommodated her very well which is really nice since she usually has to skip out on things because of her allergy. I will most definitely be back!!
EVERYTHING is DELICIOUS!!! Delicious for everyone! Even my young sons enjoy the variety of food options! Fresh ingredients. Amazing specials. If you like mushrooms, the mushroom soup is phenomenal.
Decided to try somewhere I haven’t been before for Sunday Brunch, and the group and I decided on Mae’s. This is a place where you order at the front, and then the food gets brought out to your table once ready. We told the lady at the front counter that it was our first time so she provided us paper menus to sit down and go over so we weren’t pressured to make a decision right away. The atmosphere is super cute and in the heart of downtown Mount Clemens. My friend and I decided on the Avocado Breakfast Sandwich but with sunny side up eggs instead of the friend eggs. My other friend kept it simple with the Mae’s Breakfast with over easy eggs and turkey sausage. Our Breakfast Sandwiches were absolutely huge and the yolk from the sunny side up egg really brought the sandwich together surprisingly without it being as messy as I anticipated. All of our meals came with Red Skin Potatoes which were cooked to absolute perfection making sure each piece was crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside. The Turkey Sausage was really good as well. The Fried Cauliflower was a hit for the table, however some pieces were a bit too batter heavy for my liking. Overall it was a great experience, and it’s always fun supporting a local small business when given the opportunity.
This place is a lovely retro-modern lunch and breakfast spot. You get warmly greeted by lovely waitresses coming in offered a reasonably priced menu of fresh and traditional options served up by a badass chef who knows how to work the grill. This place is a secret treasure right in down town Mt. Clemens, highly reccomend for a great dining experience for breakfast or lunch.
My mom and I were greeted as soon as we came in the door. The menu and offerings were shared. I ordered the baked potato and bacon soup and their signature burger. The soup was amazing! I wanted to run my finger along the inside of the cup to get every drop! Don't judge me! 😁 They also sell soup by the quart. My burger was really good and although I shouldn't have, I ate the entire burger, chips, and pickles. My mom ordered the same burger however she requested it to be made as a patty melt- she said it was delicious. We both added caramelized onions to our sandwiches. The young lady who served us was fantastic and the chef was incredibly lovable!!!! Great first-time experience! Will definitely be back- worth the drive!
I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. This place is in the heart of downtown Mount Clemens; it's not the biggest establishment but mighty. The servers were beyond friendly, personal, and attentive. When you walk in, you'll order at the counter and then sit at any open seat. Then, the server brings your food. I ended up getting the Fried Southern Chicken sandwich with chips and a Diet Coke. The sandwich was not overbearing or too heavy. The sandwich was made with a coleslaw, pickles, and mayo, which brought a good pair and provided a good balance of taste. Once you're done, you leave your plate at the table and the server will collect it. Overall, I loved this place and would love to come back to try other items on the menu.
most underrated breakfast/lunch spot in metro detroit. whole menu is filled with variety and the prices are decent. cinnamon butter pancakes melt on your tongue and the chorizo is well seasoned and cooked to perfection. dining is fast and easy because you pay at the counter in the area is nice as well because there's a record shop right across the street and a coffee shop on the corner. Mildly mid-century themed as well very cute ceiling and decor.
My first time at Mae's. The mushroom soup was so fantastic, I brought a quart home for my family. Shout out to Tyler and Nick! Great service and food. Definitely will be back.
Quaint spot in downtown Mt. Clemens. One can see the history in the exposed brick & unique crown molding. The chef’s kitchen is visible to customers, & the waitress is very attentive & friendly. Reasonably priced, but they def. need to get some ice for ice waters. 95 per cent of competition will have free ice waters. What sets them above the rest is their sausage gravy. It was delicious! Maybe the best I’ve ever had as far as flavor is concerned.
