We looked up local cafes and Forestry Coffee popped up, just a few miles drive away. I love matcha and called ahead of time to see if they had it. A very friendly man, Tim, answered the phone and said they did! So, we drove to the cafe, took some photos, and enjoyed our drinks. Only complaint I have is the drinks were both warm and not hot but otherwise, tasted great! The cafe was adorable inside, nice decor and rustic vibe.

What an amazing spot for coffee. You don't find many gems like this in southern Illinois and we…read morewere pleasantly surprised to come across this roaster and coffee shop in Benton. The vibes are amazing. What a fun theme- national park! Mix in a little Sasquatch and you've got a super fun and unique cafe. The owner is so kind and we were chatting with him for a while during our visit. The shop itself is beautiful and spacious with ample seating both indoor and outdoor. He roasts all his own coffees- and there are many! Syrups are free AND house-made, so that's pretty amazing. We tried the blackberry honey iced latte as well as the strawberry mocha and both were just incredible. We loved the passion and intention you can see in every detail of this place. It seems like the owner also has plans to clear some trails for hiking that will start right at the shop! How cool!?

But the flavor of the coffee definitely did not complement the flavor of the foam. Honestly, it was a pretty jarring mismatch. In terms of service, there was quite a bit of traffic in the drive-thru.

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.

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.

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!
