What customers say

While driving through town to go and visit a friend, we caught this coffee shop out of the corner of our eye and had to stop. It did not disappoint!!! We ordered espresso, the daily grind coffee, cake pops and chocolate cake. Everything was incredible! We also heard from some friends that their food is legit as well.

Good coffee. They have drip decaf. No vegan pastry, but the have good vegan options and can substitute tofu for eggs in breakfast entrees. We had an avocado bagel which had a generous serving of sprouts with a tasty dressing. We also had their vegan Thai wrap which had plenty of veggies.

The best coffee spot in town! From the coffee roasted in house, the culinary inspired menu, the impeccable service, to the community connection, this place has it all. Did you know that this was Effingham’s original coffee shop? It has that hometown feel that keeps me coming back!

The line moved quickly, and I ordered the tofu wrap, which came with side beans and salad. There were two rooms to sit in, one quieter than the other — I appreciated the choice. The food came quickly, the staff was friendly, and the Wi-Fi was fast. A great place to stop for lunch on my way from Kansas City to Columbus.
