A rendering of the future Fourgrounds Coffee Shop in Plymouth

Graham Media's WDIV-TV (Detroit) has announced that its opening Fourgrounds, a "one-of-a-kind coffee shop experience" in the heart of downtown Plymouth.  The station says Fourgrounds will be where community connection meets trusted journalism, one cup at a time.

Fourgrounds is set to launch in September at the corner of Ann Arbor Trail and Harvey Street in the Detroit suburb.

“At Fourgrounds, we’re bringing journalism out from behind the screen and into your daily rhythm, as familiar and approachable as your morning coffee,” said Bob Ellis, our Vice President and General Manager. “We want our reporting to be accessible, rooted in community, and part of the conversations that matter most.”

The station has partnered with The Great Lakes Coffee Roasting Company to serve a full menu of expertly brewed, locally roasted coffee, cold brews, and hand-crafted drinks. The space will be warm, welcoming, and designed to spark curiosity and conversation.

“This project is a perfect match for us,” said Greg Miracle, President and Founder of Great Lakes Coffee. “Our greatest passion is bringing people together over great coffee, and we’re thrilled to help create a space that keeps Plymouth buzzing with energy, engagement, and local flavor.”

Every product sold inside Fourgrounds will celebrate the local spirit, from Michigan-made goods to menu items named after iconic landmarks in and around Plymouth.

“This will be more than just a coffee shop — it’s a gathering place,” said Mayor Suzi Deal. “We’re thrilled WDIV and Great Lakes Coffee chose our city for a venture that blends trusted local journalism with our small-town charm.”  The location will also serve as a satellite location for their newsroom, giving the station a new way to be part of the Plymouth and western Wayne County communities.

Fourgrounds reflects WDIV’s deep commitment to meeting people where they are, not just through a screen, but across a table. It’s a place for meaningful moments, honest conversation, and staying truly informed.

“We want to be a local news brand that builds community,” said Ellis. “By creating a space like this where everyone is welcome, we will be more local than ever before, and we believe that means something special.”
