Balkan House to Open First Detroit Location in Summer
A new development project from the Detroit Shipping Co. is bringing a taste of Europe to Detroit's streets with the opening of Balkan House, a beloved eatery known for its authentic döner kebabs.
Located at 3700 Third Ave., the first Detroit location will be part of a concept similar to the company's food hall, featuring multiple restaurants and bars alongside 10 studio apartments on the second floor. The development is set to open in the summer, pending any finalization of details.
Balkan House has gained a loyal following since its opening in Hamtramck in 2019, with fans flocking to the restaurant for its European-style pita sandwiches. The Ferndale location soon followed, and the eatery even expanded into a food truck, but unfortunately, the original Hamtramck spot closed earlier this year.
The company's decision to bring Balkan House to Detroit comes as no surprise, given the eatery's popularity among locals and visitors alike. With its unique offerings and European flair, it's likely that the restaurant will become a staple of the city's food scene.

I mean, who doesn't love a good döner kebab? It's like the ultimate comfort food for when you need a taste of Europe in America. The fact that they're opening up shop here makes sense, though - Detroiters are always down to try new (and old) things. Plus, it'll be dope to have some international flair on Third Ave. 
Just hope they don't displace all the local eats...

Detroit's getting some serious FOMO vibes with this Balkan House opening. Döner kebabs are on the menu? Yes please! I mean, who doesn't love a good pita sandwich

I'm SO down for some authentic Turkish vibes in Detroit! Balkan House is already a fave spot for me after trying their pita sandwiches 
The food hall concept sounds awesome too - can you imagine all those restaurants and bars? 
Balkan House is still doing well tho but i'm skeptical about their new detroit location... i mean whats next? more chain restaurants and less local spots?
