Excellent coffee always…so much that I’ve subscribed to a monthly shipment to Ohio of the Dark as Dark beans and the Blanchard’s Blend! Pastries are also fresh and tasty! Claire is always very helpful!
We went to 10+ coffee shops on our road trip. This was in our top 3 spots! I had an iced black sesame latte. It was great! The shop has a sophisticated vibe. Out Batista was awesome! This is a drink I won’t soon forget!
Darn good coffee. I really enjoyed the maple salted sweet cream (the sweet cream is vegan). I got it half sweet to suite my taste- this is what I usually do at Starbucks or other cafe and it was perfect. 10/10 Long line around 1:30, but I got my coffee within 10-15 minutes. Bright open windows and covered patio so you can still sit out there on colder days
The coffee here was so good, I got the salted maple cream latte which is a seasonal specialty drink and it was to die for. Delicious foam on the top of the latte. The interior is gorgeous, it feels like being in an art museum and there is an adjacent interior room with more tables and an outdoor enclosed patio area. In spite of all their space, this coffee shop was *packed*. When I got there the line was to the door. This was after church at ~12pm on a Sunday, so definitely peak time to go. The popularity is well earned. I got a danish tea cake and it was fine, but not on par with the quality of the coffee. It looks like they also do frequent coffee classes which would be a fun activity for a date or with friends. I imagine this is a popular working spot on weekdays and I’ll have to give it a shot sometime because I will definitely be going back!
Blanchard’s coffee lived up to the hype! We visited from out of town, and we stopped by twice. Our first trip to the cafe, we ordered a bottomless drip coffee, a cappuccino with oat milk and a chocolate chip cookie to stay and sit. We enjoyed a window seat with our young child, who enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and booth seating. We were there on a Friday morning, so I noticed a lot of people working remotely from the shop. We visited again on our way out of town, and enjoyed our same coffee order again with a delicious muffin. 10/10 would recommend. Update (Nov 2024): Came back a few years later and still delighted with my experience. They expanded the seating space to include more indoor and outdoor seating. I really enjoyed my seasonal latte and a taste of their holiday blend.
