So I ordered the s'mores latte, a pimento scone and then 2 of each truffle: amaretto, rum and champagne. The latte hit perfectly as I drove home and also while I sipped on it from my home office. The scone was warmed up perfectly and devoured while on the ride home. As I sat at my desk, I have so far had one truffle... And OMG it was so smooth and rich! I'm doing my best not to eat another until later and I'm hiding them from my kids! The person working there was very polite, helpful on guiding what flavor I should go with (because I was being indecisive) and she was also very efficient. Great customer service.

The flavors are not consistent, sometimes it tastes burnt - I don't know what's up. Based on my last few visits, I don't think I will be getting my morning dose of caffeine here anytime soon.

Ambiance: 9.5/10 I…read morereally liked the covered outdoor seating. It was comfortable, inviting, and a great place to sit and enjoy a coffee. The tables were a little rickety, but that's certainly no reason to stay away. I didn't sit inside, so I can't fairly comment on the indoor space. Why 9.5 instead of 10? The rickety tables. I know. I know. It's a nitpick. I'm okay with being honest about it. Service: 10/10 The gentleman who took care of me was genuinely friendly, and the service was prompt and attentive. It was a nice contrast to places where you get the distinct impression the person serving you would rather be anywhere else. Nothing to criticize here. The service was exactly what it should be. Food: 8/10 This is where they lost me a little. I asked about the baked goods and was told they're sourced through a distributor. I understand that this is common practice, and there was nothing inherently wrong with what I had. But "nothing wrong with it" is a pretty low bar for a café. There's a bakery and restaurant directly across the street, and there are excellent local bakeries that deliver fresh products daily. Why resell distributor-sourced baked goods when there's an opportunity to support another local business and serve something that could make the food every bit as memorable as the service and atmosphere? For me, that's the difference between an 8 and a 10. Ambiance: 9.5/10 Service: 10/10 Food: 8/10

The baked goods are provided by a local baker; my raspberry lemon poppyseed muffin was terrific. So two marks for the quality of the coffee and baked goods, and friendly service. Summit Coffee scores a three out of three for their interior space. (They do have outdoor seating; I'll be back in cooler weather for that.) With tall ceilings and wide windows, SC is bright and airy, and their decor is understated elegant: nice touches here and there that reinforces the care gone into creating a relaxing space.

What follows is the marching orders to all other places doing the same thing. Give me a McDonalds with from the 80s with an exterior that dared to be unique, not part of the 1984 (read the book) agenda. This brings me to Summit coffee; I absolutely hate the exterior. Devoid of life, soul and any unique presence. However, I'm not really here to write about a drab exterior but coffee! Let's go inside, shall we? Summit coffee establishment is located is on the outskirts of Nexton proper, easily accessible by foot and with a sterile atmosphere. One oddity I noticed is the place doesn't smell of coffee, which I found interesting. Sadly the inside is as lifeless as outside. It looks like a they paid a cleaner to remove all vestiges of life while only leaving a spec here or there to meet a quote. Ok, enough with aesthetics as I've complained enough, The staff is quick to help out and offer good suggestions when they're asked. Being a former comedian, I tried to whip up some jokes to compensate for my utter boredom, the ladies were nice enough to laugh. Needless to say, the women here had a heart. They made good suggestions but I was curious why their pastry display only had like a handful of items, did they make them or get them from the grocery store? I don't know but I was only here for coffee. I did like some of the creativity - a banana creampie latte - sounds like something.... Nevermind but all props for creativity. Birthday cake latte didn't sound good for the waistline but another attempt at creativity - I love it! But I opted to go for my own flavor. A lack of options for addins, I mean literally no hazelnut, almond etc. Well, I did the best I could - Latte with 2 shots caramel and 1 vanilla. I can honestly say it was "mid" at best. The roast didn't resonate while the lack of options made it feel so generic like I couldn't play the part of an evil scientist mixing a crazy concoction. But it beats McDonalds. Oh, they do have "the world's best granola" which I made several jokes about, even encouraging other customers by saying "if you were in France and ordered granola, they would talk about Summit's granola, after all it's the world's best!" Yes, I was being the overfriendly annoying customer, b/c I was bored. At least there were some laughs. Sadly, there's nothing about Summit that stands out. I hate saying that for local businesses but I want to be authentic. Stop by if .... Well, I'm not sure why so just stop by, I guess.

They have all sorts of coffee drink options as well as a fridge with other canned drinks like energy drinks and probiotic sodas and more.

The barista, Lauren, has helped me the times I've been there and is always so friendly. It's very much a small town southern hospitality feel in there! She even made me a pup cup for my golden retriever when I went to pick my coffee up. As much as I'd love to keep this place as a best kept secret I had to shout them out because I love the quality of service I've gotten there. Thank you Shirley's Mercantile for being so great!

I watched them pull espresso shots, leave them sitting, then head to the back and suddenly my drinks appeared. When I asked about it, I was told the espresso was "pre-pulled and chilled." Meanwhile, the shots I originally saw pulled sat untouched at the machine for about two minutes (100% expired at that point). It was a confusing process and honestly, pre-pulled espresso just doesn't taste fresh. As for the drinks themselves, they were overly sweet. The vanilla latte had an odd banana flavor, and the Purple Haze tasted chemical (ironically). Overall, I won't be back for drinks. I've heard great things about their beans, so it's a shame I didn't get to experience a fresh espresso shot
