I come here in search of specialty whole bean coffee and I was greeted with a smile, a knowledgeable barista and a shelf full of beans. He made a few recommendations and even offered tasting (I declined this time but I'll be back) I got 4 different varieties and I can already tell that each is going to be special in its own way for however I choose to brew it. I loved how when I told him I was pretty experienced in coffee he just kind of stood back, let me check them all out on my own, think about the roasts and decide which I wanted based on how I brew. I cannot wait to come back with my husband and embark on the tastings everyone else is talking about. I set out for phenomenal coffee beans and I found them! Thanks so much!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Was so neat! I loved all of it. I didn’t order any food but was impressed they offered it. I loved the low lighting. Creates a calm peaceful environment. The only reason I have 3-5 stars on Atmosphere was because the bar room was a little small but loved that, however the ladies as customers were loud. I’m just sensitive but they were friends enjoying themselves. The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful! Even after I spilled my little coffee press. I will go back.

An incredible hidden gem of Shelby. I'm not a wine person, but the small coffee shop in the back was phenomenal. The owners are clearly passionate about coffee and love sharing their passion with their customers. The double espresso I had was incredible and so full of flavor and complexity. The beans are fresh and it seems like they even went the extra mile for special water. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area.
