An absolutely beautiful spot, very walkable town and if you're nearby, stop here for sure. I got a pumpkin spiced latte because apparently we are in the season already. This is what the other PSL spot wishes it could taste like. The people were friendly, the coffee was delicious and it's a spot you could sit at and get work done.

They have indoor and outdoor seating and even seating by the river! I chose a spot by the river and it's euphoric. Coffee is excellent quality; best espresso I've tasted in Grand Rapids if I'm being honest and I go to so many coffee shops. Also has the best bathroom in a coffee shop I've seen; they even have a full on changing table!!! Great place to come catch up with a friend, do work , or get some quiet time. Highly recommend.

This review is solely on my experience and not the integrity of the bagel itself. I was fascinated when a colleague recommended this place in Rockford for breakfast and I had no idea what to expect when I pulled up to an old home. When I walked in, I was greeted with delicious coffee aromas being ground while people were buying pounds of fresh ground beans. I was confused about the ordering process, but friendly customers explained the procedure. First, you get in line and pick your drink and order a customizable bagel. I picked a sandwich because I was hungry, so I opted for a full on sandwich. I chose an onion bagel with house-made smoked and sliced roast beef, egg, pepper Jack cheese, horseradish sauce, onion, tomato, and lettuce. Yum! The bagels are homemade and on the smaller side so I was able to scarf down the whole sandwich whilst enjoying a large NOLA coffee brew. All of this came to under $10. A great value and interesting experience. After, ordering you can find a seat and they come find you to come back to the counter to pay. You only pay when your food is ready. Then its cafe seat yourself territory. They also have random items for sale and interesting curiosities hidden in the nooks and crannies of this space. Certainly worth a visit based on vibes and price point alone. the food did not disappoint. Smoked meats for the win!

Menu should not say milk of choice then or should say, non dairy options are extra. Coffee with a SPLASH of oat milk, add another $1.50. Its crazy. Fyi starbucks doesn't even charge for oatmilk any more. Food items are all highly priced, most $20-30. One single vegan option on the menu, salad. The good: Atmosphere is nice. Service is good, staff knowledgable about the menu. Bathrooms are clean. One bathroom does have a changing table (a must for this area). We were so very excited to have a new place in Rockford; however, I wont be back any time soon.

Lots of LGBTQ+ propaganda so not my cup of tea when it comes to supporting businesses. Did see a handful of people there reading their Bibles and/or bible studies with a friend which was refreshing after seeing some of the other agendas in the room.

It's connected to Kingma's, but also stands on its own. Their baked goods come from Lucy's, which is right down the street. Their coffee is always rich and leaves you wanting more. The prices are on the higher side, but it's our splurge every so often. Perfect place to work if you need a change of pace. A cozy, but trendy spot. And the baristas might be the friendliest in town.

The staff was more than friendly and polite. They gave us some really helpful information and recommendations for drinks. We didn't end up eating any of the food but the honeycomb dessert looked incredible and my boss has said that the spinach pie is amazing. I really loved my strawberry matcha!
