Review of Local Coffee

Last week we had the chance to stop by a new coffee shop that opened in near us. Since we have not been able to find another coffee shops other then Starbucks we thought we'd try it out. Upon our first visit we ordered there droppo, which is a cappuccino with less milk. We also bought a Carmelo and a whole wheat apple and pumpkin muffin. The apple muffin was excellent, we especially loved the moistness and not to sweetness of it. The Carmelo and pumpkin muffin were for a friend, she really liked them both. When we went home we told our mother about how wonderful it was and said we'd have to go again soon. A few days later being out doing some garage saling we decided to stop for a quick energy boost, this time we got a regular coffee, our Mom ordered the pumpkin muffin and we got a gluten and dairy free brownie. The coffee and brownie were good but their pumpkin muffin seemed a little dry. We ate a little of the brownie and saved the rest to bring back to the rest of the family, we were surprised the it was gluten free as the texture and flavor was so good. This past week we stopped once again, can't you tell we like our coffee!?!? We ordered a iced coffee with an extra shot of espresso, this was not something we would order again, the coffee tasted horrible and was not very strong. If your planning on going there to get a frappachino don't go because they don't even own a blender!


Pros:Great droppo, maybe a little more milk for our liking, brownie and apple muffins were fantastic.
Cons: Dry pumpkin muffin, iced coffee had a bad flavor,don't own a blender
