The flavors meld together so well. It had a little spice to it, but nothing that lingered on your tongue in an annoying way. I had a seasonal latte and it was like Autumn in a cup. Baby had a mango smoothie and a breakfast sandwich. The smoothie was delicious! Sandwich was cooked perfectly and toasted up in a handheld package. The cafe itself was cute and clean. Decorated for Spooky Season, as I visited here in the Fall. Can't wait to visit Van Wert again to stop into Brewed Expressions. And kudos to the staff! They were professional, helpful, and well coordinated in their service-- communicating kindly to me and to each other and pitching in to help for efficiency. Kind of rare to see these days in the service industry...

She ordered the French Soda and the breakfast sandwich and I did a custom iced latte (white chocolate and pistachio with almond milk) and the smoked Gouda grilled cheese. Everything was very good and perfectly made. They did run out of eggs that morning so my friend's breakfast sandwich was just a bagel, cheese, and bacon. They didn't have any sauces to add to it. The workers were so friendly and helpful. They clearly know the regular customers and they stayed busy. My friend and I aren't familiar with Van Wert and the staff was happy to recommend local businesses for us to visit while he hung out. We were there on a Saturday morning and it was busy, but there's ample seating so it was fine. It was cute inside and the enjoyed the exposed brick walls.

At the end of June, the company I work for had a special treat for all its employees, they had a…read morecoffee/food truck from Deaf Dog Coffee come to give either coffee or refreshers to the employees. I had not heard of dead dog coffee before, but while I was waiting for my coffee I looked them up. The owners launched their company 8 years ago. It is a family owned company located locally. The coffee they roast is hand selected. They routinely donate to humane societies as their company was launched after adopting their rescued boston terrier, who is deaf. The company is deduced to bring awareness to other animals that have special needs Five percent of your purchase is being donated to a local humane society in your honor. As an animal lover, I think the above is cool. In regards to the coffee, I ordered a salted caramel + toasted marshmallow coffee. Omg!!!! So good!!! You could taste both flavors distinctively. It was a great treat while I started my day, and it felt great know that some amazing dogs, cats, and other animals are getting some much needed help! Look up their website: https://deafdogcoffeeco.com They sell great coffee!

I had a doctors appointment I needed to get to about an hour away and I needed to drive. It was a cold morning out, and I needed caffeine. I was about to go through Mcdonald's but remembered this location. I drove by and found that yes it only has coffee but not even the full menu of coffee available at the main location. I was hoping for some of their harvest coffees they didn't have but i settled for Blanc Dulce. Not that i don't love that coffee... just the coffee they make during harvest and holidays are special. Anyway i got some great coffee to go!

I have heard of Biggby Coffee before, driving by it while in Lima. I wish I had tried it before, because it has become a favorite of mine! The coffee is incredible! My favorite was the Salted Sweet Tooth Latte, which was a salted caramel, white chocolate, and butterscotch flavored coffee. Perfection! I do plan on trying some other flavors, but it's hard not to order this one! My brother likes the one called tan line, which is caramel and vanilla. It also sells donut holes, which are pretty good. Its bagels, though, are to die for! Some of my favorite ever! And the breakfast sandwiches they have in those bagels are absolutely delectable. My only gripe about Biggby, the menu needs something to pair with the breakfast sandwiches, like hashbrowns! I am so glad this place opened! People in Van Wert need to try this place out!

I loooove Cabin Fever Coffee! It's so wonderful to have a local coffee shop in Defiance. For years…read moreI'd drive through and just thought it was Bigby - nope! There's a downtown location and a south side location. The downtown location looks sooo good. Amazing vibe. Truly feels like you're inside a cabin / lots of wood, comfy furniture (and a variety of seating options), plus some dead animals on the wall (!). :) The coffee is solid. Sometimes really good - just depends what I get. Current special is honey lavender and iI'd definitely get that again. I usually like their seasonal latte option and usually their brew of the day. Service is always great. Parking options are street, parking lot behind the location, etc. lots of street options.
