TrueBean tickles my tastebuds in a different way. The flavors are complex yet smooth and I haven't met a roast I didn't like. My favorite is the Tanzania Peaberry. The art on the bags is gorgeous as well and created by the roaster/owner, Jason. Grab a cup at the Lockport Community Market, The Lock Keeper Coffee House, or on their website. Do it!

Such a great spot that we have here in Lockport!! I absolutely love this concept. I came here on a…read moreSaturday morning with a group of 4 to get some coffee and also do a craft. We did make a reservation about a week ahead of time. Even if you are just going to the coffee shop and not doing a craft, it is so cute and cozy in there. My oat milk latte was delicious, as well as the cinnamon fig oatmeal. However, I do wish they offered more pastries!! They only had one type of cookie when I was there. The craft space is next door. Many different options to choose from- I opted to make a keychain from the bead bar. It was such a relaxing way to spend quality time with my group. Highly recommend checking this place out.

I also split a cherry frosted cookie. Yum. Upstairs, I crafted a beaded plant which came with all sorts of beads and an instruction sheet. The crafting attendant was fun and attentive, but not too bothersome and allowed us to have fun on our own. Can't wait to go back in the fall; the whole place feels like a cozy fall hug!!

Found Gypsy Kitchen on Transit Road, I mean to make a habit of going there often from here on out. The coffee is legit. They clearly know what they're doing with espresso. Also grabbed a bite to eat -- food is fresh, not an afterthought. The space is comfortable without being pretentious. Good seating, good light, not loud. I've worked remotely from here, met up with people, and just sat solo -- all work. Free wifi, easy parking, the whole thing. Open Tuesday through Saturday which works fine for me. Staff is friendly every single time, remembers regulars, doesn't rush you out. If you're in Lockport, Niagara Falls, or anywhere in WNY and searching for a local coffee shop that's actually worth it -- this is the answer. Not a chain, not a compromise. Just really good coffee in a spot that feels like it belongs to the neighborhood. One of the better finds in Western New York honestly.

There were items ranging from honey & candies to jewelry & clothing. A good place to find a unique gift... Maybe for your Valentine. The shop is clean and organized. Service was friendly. There wasn't much of a bagel selection when I visited (around 730am on a Monday), so unsure if options have been cut back or just lesser on certain days of the week. I opted for the Annabel (2 eggs, pepper jack, spinach, tomato and chipotle mayo) on an everything bagel. It came to just under $10, which I found to be a bit expensive for a sandwich without any meat on it. It did taste good and the bagel was nice & fresh as they always have been when I have visited. I plan to stop back again... Perhaps on the weekend to see if there is more of a bagel selection available.
