Manila Bay Cafe

Manila Bay Cafe Manila Bay Cafe is an OPEN MIC wherein our open mic guests perform whatever their hearts desire. We Manila Bay is a cafe, venue, and art gallery.

Our goal is to provide a home to local artists and feeding the community (literally and figuratively). Located in one of Detroit's oldest neighborhood's, we serve coffee and more to provide a place for you to relax, which is especially helpful to students from the local colleges. We host gallery shows, intimate concerts, parties, and generally any event where you might need a room with 150 people

capacity. We believe that Detroit has talent, and the best way to prove it is to showcase it. So stop by sometime, and take a sip of Detroit's history in the making.
