Great stop on our way from Iron River to Wisconsin. Lots of great coffee options - hot or cold! Got a great oat milk cappuccino and a very cool Christmas ornament from a local artist. Many fun and unique gifts!

Great stop for coffee and home made muffins. Our muffins were warm, right of the oven, lots of choices for coffee. Fun store with gifts, ideas, and one-of -a-kind local items.
