Midtown coffee buzz: 14 East cafe opens in Park Shelton, The Bottom Line nears completion on Third
Business is steady at Midtown's newest cafe, 14 East, which opened its doors in the first floor of the Park Shelton building earlier this month.
Owner Joanne Czerny, an interior designer by trade, opened the coffee bar, which serves espresso drinks, teas and gourmet sweets from Madeleine's Patisserie, after enrolling in a business start-up class offered through an entrepreneurship program at Tech Town. She was introduced to Midtown Inc.'s Sue Mosey, who sold her on locating the Park Shelton building and the merits of the Midtown district.
Combining her love of design and entertaining with her new career as a coffee entrepreneurship, Czerny plans to host art shows, tea events and cupping parties in the evening hours. The cafe, which is about 1,500 square feet, also offers guests a private meeting room and free Wi-fi. For two-wheeled coffee fans, there are bike racks available for public use in the Park Shelton garage.
14 East is located at the corner of Woodward and Kirby in the Park Shelton building. It's open seven days a week right now, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday thru Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays. Call (313) 871-0500 or visit 14eastcafe.com.
A few blocks away, in the Beethoven Building on Third Ave. at Prentis., the close-knit family working to open The Bottom Line Coffeehouse say they are determined to finish construction and start pouring coffee by Labor Day weekend, when the neighborhood throws their annual Dally in the Ally festival.
Owners Al and Pat Harris, along with their son Kyle, (who will manage the retail operation), will begin hiring a few experienced baristas soon -- though they say a love for Detroit is just as important of a qualification as the ability to pour a mean espresso.
"People who love the area -- that's key. We want our baristas to treat our community members with love and respect. That's really important," Pat Harris says.
In addition to serving coffee during the morning, the Harrises hope to keep the coffeehouse open late to provide customers with an alternative destination to the Midtown bar scene.
"We're going to be looking at opening early in the morning, but we want to stay open late in the night as well," she says, though specific hours haven't been set yet. "We're hoping our customers will drive some of that demand. We've already got some feedback on our Facebook page, that people are excited about the idea of later hours, even up to 10, 11 or 12 at night."

What started as an idea to get more people to visit Detroit and dispel myths about the city turned into a reality.
More than 200 people gathered at Hostel Detroit, at the corner of Vermont and Spruce in north Corktown, for a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sunday. It is the first hostel in Detroit in about 15 years.
Among those celebrating were volunteers who have been working for five months to convert the building into a hostel, Lt. Gov. Brian Calley and other politicians, the Detroit Party Marching Band and people curious to check out the finished product.
About 100 volunteers helped set up the hostel with $25,000, said founder Emily Doerr, 26, of Detroit.
There are 16 beds at the hostel. Those on bunk beds will pay $18-$27 dollars per night. Those sleeping on full or queen beds will pay $40-$45. There is also an apartment available for month-to-month rent. The hostel had a soft opening Friday, but it will be a few more weeks until the public can stay there, Doerr said.
