Discovered this place one Saturday afternoon...and they were closed. Went there the next day, but they are closed Sunday too! Closed half of Saturday and all of Sunday? Might be good hours for a coffee house to be open...maybe?
Anyway, went back a week later--on a weekday this time. Obsessed? Sort of.... I'm on the hunt for a first-rate coffee house closer to me than my favorite one is (read my reviews if you must know which one). However, Brubaker's is not that place.
The coffee...? Whenever I try a new coffee house, I always get a mocha, that way I can compare evenly across the board. Plus, I just like mochas. Anyway, this place made it too sweet for my liking. I like to taste the sweetness of the chocolate juxtaposed against the bitterness of the espresso. If I wanted it taste like a hot chocolate, I'd order one. I can't recommend their coffee based on the drink they served me.
If I was basing this review solely on their coffee, they'd get a lower star-rating; but I happened to pick up a cinnamon roll for a later in the day treat. And when I finally got to it hours later, wow, it was good! Even reheated in the microwave it was good. I liked it better than Cinnabon even. I think. Maybe I should do a side-by-side comparison? :-)
Will I be back? Eh, maybe for the cinnamon roll, but not for the coffee.
