Located in a cozy historic building on Chardon Square is a family owned coffee shop with welcoming friendly service. The style is a mix of blonde wood country and rustic contemporary with chalkboard hand written menus. The interior could use a little attention but there are things that do look modernized, so maybe it's a work in progress.
We ordered a wrap that came with pickle and chips, a cup of tomato soup, a baked good, a cup of coffee and hot tea and our bill was $19. The soup and sandwich were both excellent and made with fresh healthy ingredients. They were both flavorful. I'd highly recommend the Johnny Utah wrap. The tea, coffee and brownie were basic... nothing special. Some of the other baked goods looked better and homemade. My chocoholic husband chose the brownie which looked like GFS's. I drink my coffee black and it was weak for me. I tried the serenity which was the medium roast. They had three varieties pre-made and in plastic pump-style carafes on a separate self serve counter. Then there was a little sign on the wall that said "refills $1.50." They do have soy and almond milk alternatives. Maybe next time I'll try a chai latte.
I don't believe they're open Sunday's or evenings. It's a good place to stop to do some work with free wifi or meet a friend. There are also some board games available to use. There's a nice leather furniture conversation area up by the front windows.
Making some cosmetic updates would boost the rating here since coffee shops should be serene and the nicked walls, carpet and blah tables distract from that. I'd like to try a different coffee variety also to see if it's more impressive. Another thing that hurts is that if you're going to charge for in house refills on plain coffee, don't have a self serve station of pump style carafe dispensers. Just give me a fresh cup at the counter! All in all, I'd come back. It's a nice option on the square.
