A hidden historic gem with genuine baristas and amazing selections of coffee. Real coffee too! They have huge brownies and goodies for a well deserved price. Also, there is a drive thru for a quick coffee run or you can come inside into their chill afk vibed cafe. This is my families regular go to for coffee!

This coffee place is really one of a kind. It's in a perfect spot whether your coming off the mountain or heading up. Their coffee is great tasting and they can make most anytime you want. We were out thrifting and needed a pick-me-up so we stopped in. They have the best baked goods and also make breakfast and some lunch options. Always fresh and good.

These Ladies are so sweet and caring. There food was great but then I managed to lose my wallet in the parking lot and they went way, way, way out of their way to get ahold of me. Blessings to them

What a hidden gem!! Small enough to be cozy, enough room to work inside. Food is lovely and they are so accommodating to sub, add-on or create your own version. Drinks, how do I try them all at once?? AND they have a drive-thru in case you don’t have time for a proper stop. This spot has it all.
