Coffee was delicious and the ambiance was inviting! Love that that shop is small and prices are affordable. They have punch cards and freshly baked goodies from a local baker! Tristen treat my cousin and me very well during our 2.5 hour stay!

You know the coffee is good when you wait 30 mins in the drive-thru line. (Not joking) That one employee just isn't enough employees for busy mornings! Kuddos to the lady there this morning, she was busy. Ik, now that I can call ahead and place my order as well. My fave is French Mocha with raspberry flavored added! My kiddo enjoys the smoothies too.
