21 of metro Detroit's coolest things to get delivered to you in quarantine

Ferndale Project

567 Livernois, Ferndale; 248-556-5512; ferndaleproject.com/
Beer. We. Need. Beer. If we can’t pop a cold one with the boys, we at least want to pop a cold one with our cats, which is what the Ferndale Project is all about. The Eastern Market Brewing Co. offshoot had the unfortunate experience of opening right when the whole pandemic thing took over our lives. But that didn’t stop the hopped-up crew from continuing serving up frosty IPAs, pasties, bags of coffee, and dog treats to the beer-thirsty masses. To accommodate the demand, they’ve pivoted to a curbside pick-up and delivery format. And good news: you can order online and their delivery radius is 25 miles outside of Ferndale.

Good Cakes and Bakes

19363 Livernois Ave., Detroit; 313-468-9915 goodcakesandbakes.com
This Livernois Avenue organic bakery has been in the spotlight since it opened — and they've stepped up to make our sweet dreams come true during this nightmare. You can order some of their signature sweets for delivery, like personal pan versions of their lemon gooey butter cake, strawberry crunch cake and 7up pound cake slices, as well as cupcakes and cookies. But seeing that we might be staying home a bit longer than we had hoped, you might as well order a whole cake, because you can do that, too. Vegan? They’ve got you covered with whole cakes in red velvet, double chocolate, carrot, and lemon pound cake varieties.

MotorCity Wine x Third Man Records

1949 Michigan Ave., Detroit; 313-483-7283; motorcitywine.com
Spring is here, which means one thing: fire pit-lit nights with a bottle of vino on the music-filled MotorCity Wine patio. Welp. It's going to be a minute before we can get wine wasted in public, but MCW is offering delivery and curbside pick-up Wednesday through Saturday. Folks are asked to text 313-483-7283 with their name. MCW will call you back to assemble your order, which will be delivered after pickup times, which are between 4-6 p.m. Cutoff for same-day orders is 4 p.m. There's a six-bottle minimum (they've got bottles starting at $10!) for Southwest, Boston Edison, and the Villages. If you're outside of their radius, just ask and they'll see what they can arrange.
Oh! MCW has also partnered with Third Man Records to offer wine and record pairings, because we miss record shopping, too. Captain Beefheart, France Gall, and Mdou Moctar are among some of the tunes on the menu.

SMPFLD

313-285-9564; smplfd.com
We might be depressed and sticking to the same set of sweats, but that doesn’t mean we don’t deserve some Detroit-born snark to spice up our WFH fits. Detroit screen printers at SMPFLD have complied with CDC requirements with a one-person skeleton crew to bring you the tees you need. They’ve restocked some favorites (peep the student debt longsleeve or the Hamtramck Disneyland graphic tee) and they’re taking custom screen printing orders, too, with specials designated for out-of-work industry folks.

Mongers Provisions

4240 Cass Ave. #111, Detroit; 313-651-7119; mongersprovisions.com
So you may have snatched up seven packs of rubbery American cheese slices and some Spam during your pandemic shopping spree, which makes for one hell of a depressing charcuterie board. Why not step it up with Mongers Provisions, which has a dizzying array of gourmet meats, cheeses, and chocolates available to order online so you can munch on the best during your next Zoom brunch (it’s a thing, you guys). Trust us, you’ll be feeling Gouda in no time.

Source Booksellers

4240 Cass Ave., Ste. 105, Detroit; 313-832-1155; Source Booksellers
Uh, fuck Amazon, dude. Aside from their unethical work practices during the pandemic, this crisis has highlighted our many beloved independent retailers that need our love most. Among those we love to support is Midtown’s Source Booksellers, which is offering a selection of its in-store offerings online so you can log-the-eff-off and dive into works by emerging Black authors, New York Times bestsellers, health and wellness reads, and everything in between.
