Oh, Happy Day. I love the new location of CJ's Juicery. It is so cool having it inside Post…read moreCommons. What I like best, is that they open at 9 AM. I can now stop by and get a smoothie on my way to my part-time job. The new space is just inside the entrance. It's on the left side, that use to be set up as a bar. I like the convenience of being able to order my smoothie and then going over to the Post Commons counter and ordering a breakfast biscuit sandwich. My go to smoothie is always the, PBJ. It's a tasty mix of; blueberries, strawberries, bananas, peanut butter, dates and chia seeds. Once the blended concoction is poured into a glass, it's topped with granola. It's a great way to start the day. The service is always top notch. I've followed CJ's from the two previous locations to this third one and have never been disappointed. If you want a smoothie, avoid the chain company and go local with CJ's. When: February 4, 2026 Why: Breakfast Smoothie

The Mother Earth Matcha is beautiful and tasty. I've only ever encountered positivity and friendliness from the owner. She is willing to help with recommendations, as well.

My current favorite is a seasonal offering, Cinnamon Honey Latte. If I'm stopping before noon, it's always hot and after 12 noon, it's iced. I love the blending of cinnamon & honey. It's a sweet treat, but not overly sweet. If you need something savory to eat, I am a huge fan of their, Jalapeño Sausage Biscuit. It's delicious and easy to eat while driving. If you want something sweet, you cannot go wrong with one of their scones. Again, easy to eat on the road. If your co-pilot is your four legged best friend, be sure to get them a free Pup-Cup. They'll thank-you with lots of licks.

Unfortunately I will not no longer be coming back. As much as I enjoy my items the customer service is whack. Every time different girls but same attitudes. Also they own a boutique next door. So be prepared to wait longer on the order so they can make a sale next door. It's not worth the hassle and I use to come across town just for them. They really don't understand the service they gives matters just as much as the product.

This is a great little neighborhood coffee shop. It's located in what I"d guess was a gas station…read morein its earlier life. The ambiance is minimalist with a rustic twist and it truly is right on the corner, so you can't miss it. They offer a good variety of teas, coffee and morning pastries. If you're there at lunchtime, they've got that covered, too. They offer several sandwiches and for the health conscious, there is a variety of salads, too. The staff was friendly and brewed me a great cup of coffee. I love small town coffee shops. Their personalized service out shines that chain that most people love.

I found this delightful little cafe in downtown Wood River a pleasant surprise. While it has been…read moreopen for about two years now (yes, I asked), I had not heard of Russell's Corner Cafe until a few days ago when I took an alternative route and happened to drive by the cafe. It's an ideal place to grab your morning caffeine or a quick lunch, while supporting a small business. My Order: Mango Passionfruit Iced Tea & The Italian Sandwich Food/Drinks: The coffee menu is extensive, and they have a decent tea menu (my tea was Stash). There's a small bakery/pastry case, plus a few sandwiches and salads on the menu. After eating there, I checked out their social media; it looks like they have occasional specials that they post. I enjoyed my tea, and the Italian Sandwich was delicious. My sandwich came with a little cup of oil with herbs, which was so good! Atmosphere: The inside is simple, yet inviting. There's a counter where you order, and two small rooms with a few tables in each room. There's also a few tables outside, which I would have sat at had it been a little bit warmer. The woman working the counter was friendly and helpful. Logistics: It's 3 hour street parking, but I had no trouble finding a spot. The building is sort of on the corner/side road. Once inside, head up to the counter to order.

So when Scooter's opened a short distance from my home, I gave them a try. To my surprise, the service was super quick and the quality of coffee was good. Typically, I just get a simple cup of black coffee, but today I went all out. They had a new drink posted on the menu and it caught my attention. I ordered, Vanilla Creme Cold Brew. It was cool, refreshing and not overly sweet. Since I was heading into work my part-time job, I also ordered an, Everything Bagel. It was a sandwich made with, spicy sausage, egg and gouda cheese. Wow! It had the perfect amount of spice and the gouda cheese was melted perfectly around the egg and sausage. I'll be ordering it again and again. The staff was friendly and attentive over the intercom and even more so at the actual drive-up window. Their professionalism shined. Not being a fan of using a drive-thru, this Scooter's has taught me that using one can be a positive experience.

With the cold temperatures and snow on the ground, I changed my regular order of an iced Breakfast Latte to a hot one. When I got up to the window and the barista saw my K9 companions, she offered my Pup Cups. I told her they would love one, but we needed to skip this time because they were on the way to the v-e-t. Ordering thru the drive-thru was easy. I like how they start out asking for your rewards number and then if you've got any points to redeem they let you know. Always be sure to join all the rewards programs you can, they're a great way to save. The drive-thru at this Germania is set up kinda weird, but it works. From the menu, you just follow the chained in area that leads you up to the pick-up window. One of the reasons I've avoided the drive-thru was because of the weirdness, but after using it this once, it ain't that bad. Service is good inside and at the drive-thru. The staff is always friendly, they have winning personalities. When: January 28, 2026 Why: Morning caffeine.
