Mesa Tacos and Tequila - Royal Oak, Michigan
One of the most famous places in Michigan. Love this place for a day trip. They often throw festivals (listed on their facebook)
Blake Farms - Michigan
This is my go-to place. I hated beer before I started going here. They have over 1,000 beers. Then have a REALLY good selection of non-beer cocktails. Food is amazing, and they have really good seating inside and out.
Michigan Beer Co. - Novi, MI
This beer is amazing! The anti-seltzers have real fruit in them and don't even taste like seltzers. The beer is amazing! Some of their collections sell out if you don't go on release day. Food is out of this world and pretty sure their nachos are act...
Ascension Brewing Company - Novi, MI
My favorite place in Ferndale. I would highly recommend making reservations ahead of time. Tacos and 1,000 tequilas. Menu is always being updated!
Imperial - Ferndale, MI
Artisan Doughnuts! They do characters and the most creative flavors. I go out of my way to get the smores doughnuts when in stock. They change the menu every week!
Donut Bar - Southfield
Artisan deserts and homemade ice cream! The staff is friendly, and they have a huge selection of deserts!
Treat Dreams - Ferndale, MI

Summer Specific
Michigan activities/Destinations summer specific that is always a fun time
Michigan has two East side Floating waterparks. I highly recommend these as they are a lot of fun. However, if you do not have kids check first if either park has kid less hours. If you don't mind kids, then ignore that tip.
Michigan Floating water parks
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING THIS AT LEAST ONCE IN YOUR LIFETIME! Adult summer camp is so much fun and personally I like summer camp 10x as an adult.
Adult Summer Camp in Michigan - CampForeverFun.com
This is a EXTREMELY large festival. Not for the faint. It gets hot, rowdy, and loud. But definitely for the country music fans.
Faster Horses Country Music Festival
No.1 Recommendation for Adult summer camp if you can travel. They used to host in Michigan however, they trimmed it down to four states and continue to grow back out. They are a very personable company and are absolutely amazing!
Camp No Counselors - Adult Summer Camp
This is a large festival for the tulips on the West side of the state where the city shows off it's dutch cultural background.
Tulip Festival - Holland, MI
