    My deliciously smooth 16oz nitro brew coffee
    Nancy C.

    Fantastic nitro and cold brew coffee! I think their nitro coffee rates very high on my top ten best brews. Super smooth, robust flavor but not overpowering coffee. There are two drive thrus wrapping around this little shop and the service we experienced as one of the best coffee shop experiences as well. They gave us a sample of their cold and nitro so I could decide which was very nice. The menu has many concoction drinks as well as simple basics so whatever suits your coffee tastes. In addition they have flavored sodas, teas, and smoothies as well. Definitely will be stopping by again on the way back.

    My family got 3 really good coffees! The menu has a wide range of options for whatever you're feeling. And they also have a TON of sugar free flavors which surprised me and would be good for anyone who is diabetic or sensitive to sugar. The lady who took our order was super friendly and helped us with our questions! The reason I'm putting 4 stars is because there isn't a menu until you're at the window so make sure to figure out what you want before hand because there will likely be a line. Also there is no indoor seating to my knowledge so just be aware of that!

    I love the snickers. My partner loves the espresso shots. They also have multiple dairy free options, in case you need them.

    Good drinks. Every time we go the employees get our drinks wrong or size wrong though.

    Wonderful coffee shop!…read more We stopped here before the airport and I'm so glad we did! The owner was very nice and so was the staff! Oxygen quality was high and refreshing!

    The good: They offer pourer, which is frustratingly uncommon in Idaho, in my experience…read more The bad: The options for pourover are "medium" or "dark," served in a paper cup. I'll just say it: as someone who travels extensively for work, the specialty coffee scene in Idaho is grim. Coffee knowledge is extremely poor, and most people seem to be just looking for some sort of sweet, caffeinated beverage. And if that's your bag, this place might be great for you. The interior design is decent--it LOOKS, from a 10,000' view, like a specialty coffee shop, and I was hopeful when I was heading over here. There are plants. The baristas are friendly enough. But do not mistake this for specialty coffee. It's overroasted swill designed to sit "in the mix" in a sweetened, syruped milk drink. And they shouldn't be offering pourover coffee if they're not using coffee that needs that brewing technique to showcase its distinctiveness. Especially not for $8. Specialty coffee shops offer single origin pourover coffee from around the world on a cycle that follows the coffee crop (more or less). Without exception, specialty coffee uses roast descriptors from "cinnamon" to "city+," and there's no point in doing a pourover with anything darker than "Full City." And you don't do pourovers in a paper cup or offer "room for cream." Anyway, TL;DR: Got a pourover and it's basically undrinkable. I hate leaving negative reviews, but I wanted to leave a this for those like me who might come all the way here hoping to find a nice pourover. The coffee here is roasted much too dark. The espresso in the hoppers is black. The steaming pitchers are stored on top of the machine. The tamper is nice, but the distribution and tamping process was nonexistent, as befits a shop that is using coffee as a base ingredient and not a focus. If you're the owner, and if you have any love for coffee, please consider buying coffee from a legit specialty roaster and giving it a trial run in straight milk drinks and pourovers (single origin only). Even a large high-volume specialty roaster such as the ones you find on drinktrade.com--while not my first choice--would be a dramatic improvement in the resultant cup. You have a beautiful space, and good people behind the bar. You could easily offer a rotating selection of "the good stuff" for your non-sweetened beverages, if you wanted to do better. Even if you don't want to get into roasting, you could do what many premier cafes do and use a rotating selection of guest roasters for your specialty drinks. You have an opportunity to cultivate the art, not just the appearance, and be the first specialty shop in Idaho Falls. /soapbox

    Located just up the road from downtown Idaho Falls, this charming little coffee shop perfectly…read moreblends small-town warmth with creative, flavorful drinks that wake up both your taste buds and your mind. They offer a solid lineup of regular staples alongside a rotating selection of featured drinks each month--giving you a great reason to keep coming back and see what's new. We tried the Oatmeal Cookie and Honey Lavender lattes, swapping in oat milk to lighten the caloric load. Both delivered a rich, prominent coffee flavor and were pleasantly sweet without going overboard. While both were excellent, the Honey Lavender edged out as my favorite. Every drink can be customized to your liking, and they're happy to fill your own reusable cup if you bring one. Street parking is surprisingly easy to find, even on a Saturday around lunchtime. The only downside is the somewhat limited hours (8:30 AM - 2:30 PM), so plan accordingly if you're passing through later in the day.

    Such a cute little shop! I was in town visiting my sister and this is one of the few coffee shops…read moreshe really liked. We had a lot of questions regarding the lattes, and the barista was kind enough to show us the measurements and ingredients of each latte. There's also gifts inside of here and some tables to sit down and enjoy your drink. Parking was no issue and pretty walkable to the downtown area. Would definitely visit again!
