2026 is shaping up to be an excellent year as far as new eateries and cafes are concerned. And now, we have another one we can add onto the list.

A New Coffee Shop is Opening in East Lansing

East Lansing is about to have a brand new place to get your caffeine fix at. Get ready to welcome Foxtail Coffee Co. to town!

Foxtail Coffee Co. is a Florida-based coffee chain. And while it's not new to Michigan, it is new to the greater Lansing area.

When Foxtail Coffee Co. Opens

Mark your calendar for Tuesday, March 31 — that's when Foxtail Coffee Co. is having its Grand Opening celebration. The doors will open at 7 am and there will be all kinds of things going on to celebrate the grand opening until 1 pm:

  • Free gift bags for the first 50 guests
  • Complimentary gelato for kids 12 and under
  • Samples of their favorite drinks

You can find this new coffee shop at 431 E Grand River Avenue in Downtown East Lansing. When the doors open, you can expect all the usual offerings one might find at a coffee shop — brewed, iced, lattes, and more. But there are also more specialty beverages like the maple pancake latte.
