Checked out the newest coffee shop in Brownsburg this morning, Tempest. They are still in the soft opening phase, with the grand opening being held tomorrow! Tempest in located under the Arbuckle Apartments, which makes for a great location for their residents. I popped in around 7am and there were a few customers already there. I was greeted by Caleb, who helped me narrow my drink decision down. I was torn between the Vanilla Toast and Burnt Amber. I landed on the Burnt Amber. Thanks, Caleb, for explaining the selections and their ingredients! I was also excited to try a waffle, however, Caleb informed me the chef on duty had a family emergency so food wasn't being served at the moment. I could've taken my coffee to go, but I decided to stay and get a bit work done + enjoy my coffee. Several more customers popped in while I was there which is always a good sign! Tempest is a cozy chic atmosphere which makes for a great place to hang out with friends or have a cute coffee date. Tempest will turn into a lounge vibe after 5 or 6pm, serving cocktails. Caleb told me the bartender is coming from Nashville, TN... so you know what that means... He's seasoned! LOL. Overall, my first experience at Tempest was great! My coffee was tasty, staff was friendly, and I look forward to trying the other coffee selections on the menu + the cocktails.
P.S. They do not offer cold foam. I was a little bummed to hear this, but didn't impact my overall rating. read more
