Gathering Stories

Excellent service, excellent coffee. Servicio excelente, café excelente.

This is the kind of place that you really want to love when you first walk in... it's quirky, cool, has tons of seating and a "take a load off and read a book" vibe to it that is quickly becoming lost amid a sea of corporate coffee stores.

But in my experience, there's something... "off" with the coffee. I can't quite put my finger on it. I was passing through town so this is based on one order, but my (pricey) iced coffee had a weird taste to it that was simultaneously watered-down and ... "plasticky"? "Cardboardy"? I threw some milk in it, and it was ok after that, but as a bit of a coffee snob, this seemed to be a case of stale beans or a bad roast.

The staff was laid back and very welcoming, but the "all the drinks are 'up' on the end of the bar" system is a bit confusing and prone to grabbing the wrong drink or just not being able to find yours. More clarity there would be helpful.

Ok I get the whole eclectic attempt, but there is a difference between that and just terribly cluttered! Much of the furniture is in terrible shape and is filthy dirty. Some of the pieces smell like wet dogs! Watch out for the old man sitting in the back corner. He likes to lurk around invade people’s space. After visiting, I felt like I needed to be disinfected!
I think it’s funny how the entrance door and window next to it are both 100% covered in local postings that are so old and overrun that you can’t make heads or tails out of any of them. Also, the ENTRANCE is NOT the place for this info as people are trying to come and go, so who is going to clog up the only entrance trying to read all the stuff? Uh NO ONE! How about cleaning up the entrance and putting up a bulletin board somewhere else. Then of course it needs to be purged continuously. Just use a little common sense here.

It's good for a small town coffee shop, but the coffee drinks tastes a bit bitter, which tells me the coffee roasting quality is not great. It can definitely be offset by adding sugar, but if you don't take sugar it's not great.
The service is good and promt though. There is usually two baristas working both the register and the drive through.
Atmosphere: great cozy vibe with awesome local art and lots of comfy couches, and private nooks, BUT there is a shop that's part of the venue called Junk G-word written with a J.... and I'm not a fan of a racial slur used as a businesses name.

If you haven't had a Brew'ha monster cookie you don't know what your missing. Seriously, unexpectedly delicious. The coffee is always good and consistent. The staff are so friendly, patient and helpful. Thanks for always taking care of us.

Excellent coffee! Fast drive thru if you're in a hurry. The atmosphere inside is really fun if your wanting to hangout. The espresso is perfect. Every drink I've tried has been delicious. A huge selection of flavors and milk alternatives. The baked good are very good as well. Really friendly workers too. I highly recommend this coffee shop. I wish it was closer but worth the drive from southwest once a week.

Super friendly service. Funky little vibe inside!! This is a great find for me as someone traveling through. Something tells me the locals already know what a great spot they have here?

Gingerbread latte on point. Quiche was so good ?

I spent 1 evening a week here for meetings with a friend to catch up over coffee for about 2 years. The staff are great, the coffee delicious, and the food (especially the muffins) divine! If you don't have time to stop in, then they do have a drive thru window for a quick stop. If you are in the area and need a pick me up, then stop here.
