We had heard about this coffee shop from locals, and decided to get a cup for our morning shopping. It was well worth it! They have baked goods,and daily specials. I had a milky way latte that was ahhh-mazing!! Stop in, you won't regret it!

I don't eat ice cream very often, it has to be a hot day and we do not have a lot of those days where I live. And most of the times I think the ice cream has a boring taste, is not creamy or ... Lets just say I'm picky. Here none of the above: raspberry truffle was just... More

An odd little place consisting two wooden shacks and some outdoor tables. You order breakfast in one shack and then have to walk over to the other one to get your coffee - strange! However, the coffee is excellent as were the eggs benedict and bagels with lox and cream cheese. Not sure I understand the framed very large insects... More

Normally I prefer just plain black coffee, but something inspired me to try one of their specialty mochas, and it was SO worth it! It's a really unique spot with lots of choices and amazing coffee!

Do you drink black coffee? Currently, many people are looking to put anything and everything in their coffee. That is fine for them. Personally, I prefer black coffee made by a local proprietor. Fortunately, this place meets and exceeds all of my expectations as it relates to coffee taste. Moreover, it does not have the tacky after-taste that some corporate... More

Looked for this coffee place because of reviews on Trip Advisory. Too many choices so I went with one of the day's specials, Milky Way Mocha. Very good. Service was good. Enjoyed sitting in the sun for a bit on a cool Florida morning.

My family stopped here for a night cap last night and had a wonderful time. My wife had a toffee nut latte and I had a triple espresso. My wife ordered her latte with soy milk (which she was impressed they offered) and the toffee nut flavor was not overpowering. My espresso was one of the best thy I've had.... More

We ordered speciality flavored coffees (snickers & milky way), but they didn't taste like snickers or a milky way. If we would have ordered just coffee then it would have been good.

I'm glad I stopped in- the coffee is very good! The Milky Way latte was my favorite. Nice sitting area, too.
