A new vegan taco spot is planned for Southwest Detroit

Rocky's/Facebook

A new cafe that trades in vegan tacos and organic coffee will take over the former Charlie Clark's Bar space at the corner of Morrell Street and West Vernor Highway in Southwest Detroit.

The owners of vegan taco and coffee truck Rocky's Road Brew purchased the building and hope to open Damelo Cafe by this winter, Eater reports.

Owner Rocky Coronado launched Rocky's three years ago in Austin before moving to Detroit. The truck offers organic coffees and teas, along with vegan tacos like fried avocado, vegan al pastor vegan beef, and black bean.
