  Such a lovely place, nice atmosphere. Old time country store, sat in the back, had a coffee, read the paper and used the wifi. Everyone was so nice!! Coffee was excellent! They were baking cinnamon buns in the morning and I was able to grab one, hot & tasty!! Will stop by again when I'm in town :-)

  UPDATE (May 2016): The owners asked that I update my review. After I left my initial review, the owners called me (I'm not clear on how they found my contact information but one of the owners responded, "I was a private-eye in a past life.") They defended their issues (the doors are broken because they were expensive to fix, they closed early because there weren't enough customers, etc.). They asked that I understand their issues and invited me to return and give them another chance.
  
  I eventually made my way back and have made a handful of purchases since. I've also left the store empty handed several times because items (drinks, bread) were out-of-stock.
  
  I visited the store most recently this month and the owners rather rudely announced I'd entered the store ("Oh, it's him, he came back! It's Tommy West!") shouting about me by name. They then asked that I update my review.
  
  ORIGINAL REVIEW:
  Suffers from "the only thing in the area" syndrome. A change in ownership has twisted this place drastically making everything inconsistent. Everything. From hours of operations (you'll find them closed when they should be open), prices at the register that don't match what's advertised, stale "fresh bakery" items and broken fixtures (the custom refrigerator doors need some repair).
  
  What was once a nice, local spot that set a standard for modern-country living has transformed into an eye-roll-inducing "convenience" store.

  As it's now been several months of drinking coffee here regularly, The coffee is a 16 oz. (bigger than most other places!). Their coffees are some of the best I have had, and I drink A LOT OF COFFEE! It's very robust and earthy and the same time, still nice and smooth. Great neighborhood shop!
