    Proud local owners of this fine shop.

    Unbelievable hospitality! Great owners who really care to deliver the very best products. Bread is homemade, has the ham & cheese on a croissant. Pastry's galore.. one better than the next. Support small locally owned businesses and give them a try. Wish I could give 6 stars

    Okay Brennan's, I see you!…read more From the outside, Brennan's is pretty unassuming, but also incredibly cute. The best way I can describe it is modern, traditional, and farmhouse-inspired all at the same time. They have this beautiful ironwork sign out front with their name on it, and it immediately caught my attention. The real star of my visit, though, was Emerson. She was absolutely amazing. She took the time to explain everything they had to offer and gave me plenty of space to look over the menu before ordering. I ordered the Pigeon River Latte and wasn't even thinking about the milk situation. Emerson asked if I wanted whole milk, which immediately reminded me that I am lactose intolerant and that choice would have ended my day very badly . That extra step showed a level of attentiveness that you don't always find. She wasn't just taking an order. She was actually thinking about the customer in front of her, and that deserves recognition. Emerson also explained that most of their menu items, along with many of the products in their refrigerator cases, are locally sourced. The only exception is the burritos. I absolutely love that. Since I'm also a kombucha girlie, I grabbed the "Bumble Blossom Jasmine" and the "Be Still" from Bailey's Farms to try. Both were great choices. The space itself was clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. Parking was easy to find right out front. To be fair, I arrived around 8:00 a.m. right when they opened, so if parking had been difficult, I probably would have been concerned lol. Another detail I appreciated was finding resources in the restroom related to women's safety. It's a small thing, but it showed me that they care about creating a safe environment for their customers. I was also excited to learn that they offer delivery. Since I'm in town working with my team, and many of us are up and moving well before 6:30 a.m., knowing they're open at 6:00 a.m. on weekdays and can deliver is a huge plus. Overall, I highly recommend Brennan's. If you find yourself in Gaylord, Michigan, give them a shot. They earned every bit of this 10 out of 10.

    Honestly just not a good coffee. If you don't like coffee then you might like it because it doesn't…read moretaste like coffee, it tastes like sugar water. I ordered an iced dirty chai which is my go to at coffee shops. Pros: the service was good. Cons: it was $10 which is diabolical, it tastes like water, and didn't even have good ice cubes lol. I saw a handful of other folks in there holding coffees and they all looked too watery or milky.
