Did not expect such a delightfully pulled espresso, in the area for vacation and stopped by twice.

Was surprised at how huge the coffee options were here and the long list of different syrups we could request. Bumblebee added to black iced coffee was absolutely delicious and refreshing and was only $3.50 which is a coffee price hard to find now.

The only cafe in Gambier, Ohio is a warm respite from the winter and a Kenyon College hangout. Right on the main street, the coffee selection is a tasty mix of traditional and fancy.

Good and decent place... But they Nicole and dime you for everything. For almond milk in my coffee it was an extra 1.25... or something like that .. And then their gf options are expensive. Coffee and food is just ok. I'd prefer Starbucks or mainly Happy Bean before Wiggins... especially because of the prices.

I want to love this place given both our kids attend and have graduated from Kenyon. Order a cappuccino at $3.25. Awesome. Ask for oat milk instead of regular milk, $1.70 surcharge. Charging anything more than $.25 for the substitution is robbery. I can live with $.50. Won't buy at $1.00. But $1.70? That kind of service is reserved for the united federation of proctologists. Get real, Wiggin.

We love this little coffee shop - it's a cozy little space for the highly educated students to get work done and mingle with the students. The coffee is good and the eats are yummy. Disappointed it's not open on my trip to Gambier- it's a College campus the coffee shop should be open for students and parents to work.

A different name from when I remember going here, but I'm sure it still has the best coffee and atmosphere as it always has had. This is where most people come to study and also talk to friends/just hang out.Perfect atmosphere for a small town college environment and worth spending time in if you're in the area.

The prices are pretty expensive, even for a place off of a college campus. The prices do not reflect the quality of the drinks, which is so-so at best. I got an Italian soda, which was almost $6. I asked if they had any gluten free options and they didn't have anything (not even a fruit?). I was surprised that there was not an effort made to include anything, especially when the website specifically lists gluten free pastries (which is why we chose to go here). I don't think it's worth it to go back and try again, especially if their website isn't accurate.

The River Road Coffeehouse journey to the campus of Kenyon College began in 2011 when the Formans met with Middle Ground Café owners, Joel and Margaret Gunderson. The popular coffee and food establishment resided in the center of Gambier and enjoyed a strong student customer base. The Gundersons also owned the neighboring Village Inn and were interested in focusing their energies on that business. The Formans were concerned that the significant “food” focus of the existing business would make it difficult for a replacement coffeehouse to enjoy success. Mark and David also felt strongly that specific efforts would be necessary to emphasize the “local” orientation of the business. The dialogue with the Gundersons was re-opened in early 2012 and an assets purchase agreement was finalized in April of 2012.Wiggin Street Coffee opened in August of 2012 just prior to the beginning of the 2012-2013 academic year. A complete renovation of the kitchen and service area was accomplished to highlight the coffee-orientation of the new business. The new La Marzocco Linea espresso machine was located in close proximity to the front counter to enhance barista interaction with customers and a high-end coffee and tea brew bar was located adjacent to the existing “pick-up” window. While the menu emphasized espresso-based drinks, coffee and tea…it was also important to offer high-quality pastry and a limited selection of food items that were sourced from local vendors.Affectionately dubbed “Wiggle Ground” by the KC students, the coffeehouse has enjoyed continued success as a supporter of “coffee and community”. Although still in its early stages of development, Wiggin Street Coffee hopes to continue a long tradition of offering community members and students a place to gather and discuss the issues of the day in the tradition of European Coffeehouses while enjoying outstanding specialty coffee sourced from small farms and cooperatives with a tradition of excellence!
