Raven’s Lounge and Restaurant, 5145 Chene St. Owned by Tommy Stephens, this spot’s claim to fame is that it’s the oldest blues club in all of Michigan. It’s tucked away on a lesser-traveled Chene Street. The live music, along with great drinks and soul food make this place a hidden gem. (Photo by Yelp user Eddie C.)

Dime Store, 719 Griswold St, Suite 180 Looking for a downtown spot where you can hold a power breakfast meeting, grab a quick muffin and coffee, enjoy a leisurely lunch, or a craft beer for happy hour?
