Riff Raff Coffee Travels

I saw a blurb about this place on line and decided to take a look see.  They sell new and used items to make the your place look like the coolest cottage around.  But that isn't why I went there. Coffee was my objective.  Tucked away at a tiny booth was one of the most efficient baristas I have had the pleasure of watching work!  When I got into the line there were six (6) patrons ahead of me and he was making three (3) beverages at the time.  It took no time at all before I had my beverage in hand. I enjoyed walking around the store looking at all the stuff while sipping my brew.           4.8 ☕️ out of 5 no treats though😱 The Found Cottage can be found at 2460 Chicago Dr, Hudsonville, MI 49426    

  If you happen to be in Kemmerer stop by Fossi Fuel Coffee and sit down and relax.  Their batistas brew up delicious blends of flavors in your coffee, they even serve it straight up black if that is your pleasure.  They have a kitchen out back make delectible baked goods and sandwiches as well. They can be found at 819 S Main St, Kemmerer, WY 83101           ☕️ - 4.1          🥐 - 4.2    

I stopped by the Court House coffee in downtown Danville, IN.  It is one of the nicest coffee houses I have ever been in.  The do serve breakfast and lunch and have a tea room upstairs as well.  The proprietors were quite pleasant and the service was excellent.  I had a vanilla latte and a homemade scone. Cloth napkins and table cloths! They can be found at : 65 S Washington St, Danville, IN  ☕️  4.0   🥐 4.0   🏫 10 out of 5

   If you are in Grand Rapids and want a good coffee beverage, skip the nasty commercial shops and explore the town a little.  On a back street but not too far off the main roads you will find a great grocery store called #kingmansmarket  A portion of the of the store is the #sparrowcoffee shop.      It is located at;  2225 Plainfield Ave NE, Grand Rapids, MI 49505-4227 Phone: 616 551 3913   I tried the vanilla latte and a mocha latte with my croissant.  They were both good but the Mocha was the best.  The croissant is from a local bakery and were quite good!     ☕️ 4.2     🥐  4.7

 My usual stop for coffee is at my friend's house, but as he didn't  answer his phone I stopped by Tropies Cafe in Manistee.  It was close to closing  time, but the friendly staff obliged me with a Dealer's Choice which ended up being a tasty Carmel and vanilla latte! They are co_located with the owner's other business Millennial Decor.  It makes for a convenient way to have coffee while discussing a better way to express yourself in your homes decor.  I did not try any of their sandwiches or treats while there and shall have to return.  I recommend this as a very good stop if you are walking the boulevard in Manistee.  There are many interesting stores as you continues walking to the beach.                     4.5 - ☕️

 Greetings and Salutations from Gig Harbor, WA!  I tried a new to me shop this morning, the Kimbal Coffee House.  A small shop that serves up caffeinated beverages.  They were quite busy today with a host of drinks and meals.  The place was busy and hopping and very noisy!   The brown sugar cinnamon latte was a bit to hot and require a splash of cream to make it ready for consumption.  I took it outside to enjoy away from the interior din. They do host live music at various times of the week.  The latte was okay, but making a good beverage was not the number one priority from what I could taste.  I may go back to sample the breakfast out of curiosity.  They are found at  6659 Kimball Dr a102, Gig Harbor, WA 98335 3.9 - ☕️
