Whether you're dropping in for a quick drink on-the-go, or planning to stay awhile, they've already hopped into the Fall season with cozy movies playing for patrons to enjoy. With shareable board games to take your mind off the phone and a plethora of books to borrow in case you come empty handed, the Story Brew is at the top of our list of places to visit the next time we come by the historic town of Natchitoches!

I love your store full of beautiful kitchenware, coffee, and oils, and it's one place I can find exactly what I've been looking for.

We need more family-owned spots like this one! Don't drive by thinking it's just a cute coffee shop -- there's legit good food coming out of that kitchen. Service is drive-thru only, which honestly works perfectly for me. The kimchi cucumbers? Always a hit. Everyone puts their own spin on them, but these taste like the real deal. The rice was perfectly cooked, and the potatoes were amazing (but seriously... why only two tiny pieces?!). The bulgogi was solid -- not the best I've ever had, but it definitely put a smile on my face. Overall, this place is a gem in a town that desperately needs more spots like it. I'll 100% be back -- and don't forget to grab a coffee while you're there!

Would make a great study spot. My husband and I have had the serenity latte, hot (latte w/lavender simple syrup and honey) and the caramel macchiato, cold. We were both pleased with our drinks. The serenity latte is very sweet on its own so taste before adding any sugar. I only wish the espresso shined through a bit more. I think I'm going to ask to add an extra shot next time. Also cold drinks come blended, not on ice but maybe you could ask to have it served that way, I don't know. Definitely worth a stop. Grab a coffee and a good book (which are priced quite fairly) and enjoy while sitting on the patio!
