Definitely the place to go to in West Frankfort. My only complaint would be consistency with product. Each employee seems to make the drinks differently depending on who you get. The owner being the one who makes the best drinks of course. Would be a 5 star place if it was consistent.

I came with friends and they ordered a cold brew and the red riding (a signature seasonal drink) and they both loved their selection. The food selection is limited so the coffee/beverages are truly the star. We ordered some bagels with cream cheese and they were warm and toasty. They have a chess set on one of the tables and a shelf with games. It was peaceful and the person who took our order was really sweet and helpful! We loved everything he recommended. It seems like a great place to cowork or grab a coffee with friends.

They could not have been nicer, happy to help us out! I loved the space also with local art work and a little book store of local lore written by local authors.

This is one of those places and I highly recommend you come here for the coffee alone. I wouldn't call it a coffee shop, as it is primarily a restaurant, but it's the closest thing to it and serves a variety of coffee drinks. I just consider it a bonus that they do a great job with the food that they serve. Their menu isn't big, but it feels like they put a greater focus on quality rather than quantity. Everything I have tried here has been superb. Great atmosphere, food, and coffee. You can't go wrong!

The scrambled eggs were not scrambled. They were flattened, like it was made for a breakfast sandwich, then chopped up. The texture was not good. I wish I read the other reviews about the eggs. I expected real butter and not a butter spread for my biscuits. The sausage and biscuits were just ok. I recommend the restaurant changes how they cook scrambled eggs and get real butter for the biscuits and toast.
