A Better Stop

 Travelers need to know that not all coffee shops are worth stopping at.  I need of a caffeine fix while heading north in Oregon Istopped in Springfield at the Off Kilter Coffee shop.  What a disappointment, the drink(?) was way off kilter!  The liquid I was given smelled of burnt coffee and really hot milk.  Yuck!

Fortunately for me just a few miles away was another shop called Jitterbug Java!  Thank goodness too, as I still wanted some caffeine.   


I told the barista what I wanted and then asked her to dump my other beverage without saying anything.  She dumped it and asked where I had gotten the burnt beverage from?  I just said a competitor and left it at that.  She made me a marshmallow carmel latte that was scrumptious and gave me the boost I needed to finish my drive



Stop by 449 Q Street if you are in Springfield,  OR.

4.7 - ☕️😊😊😊😊

I was informed of a new place for coffee place not too far away in the town of New Era,  The Full Bloom Bakery and Flower Shop.   I drove down to give it a try.  The shop keeper made a delicious peppermint mocha and sold me a top notch scone as well.   They have a variety of baked goods and other delicacies  as well as flowers.  A variety of teas and coffees to choose from to make the drive there worth while.               4.6 ☕️   out of 5      4.9 🥐    out of 5 Located at 3093 M-20, New Era, MI 49446

Gig Harbor

 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 - ☕️
