Great Coffee. Great atmosphere. Great hangout spot. There is a lack of actual food, but its drinks are great. My friends and I all exchanged our Christmas gifts here.

My favorite place to stop for coffee in Barbourville! Great coffee, friendly staff, cute interior. They have a lot of other things for sale aside from coffee. And it's huge inside. I love this place!

Just happened upon this neat coffee house and decided to try it. I loved the iced latte! The bakery items are great too. When I am in the Barbourville area, I always get my treat.

Coffee was a bit weak and watered down. Took a while to get served because the employee kept chatting with the other person in line ahead of me after they had their food and while I waited to order. Nice place otherwise. Loved the atmosphere.

My family recently moved to the area and my husband and I are AVID coffee drinkers. Actually met at a coffee shop. I have never met a more kind staff, excellent coffee with unique flavor choices, and a great feel of home town love. I will be returning often and for as long as the shop is open. Wonderful!

The lattee was great but the iced coffee with salted carmel was un-drinkable it tasted as if a salt Shaker was opened and poured directly into the drink. Just my opinion.

I would EASILY pay $10 per cup of coffee at this place! You can’t beat a family owned, small town coffee shop that puts Starbucks to shame. Plus, the owner’s kindness and creativity is just the whipped cream and cinnamon topping to my latte! 10000 star rating.

I really like this place, the atmosphere is neat and the staff is kind. I used to go every day and get a cup of coffee. They raised the price of a cup from like 1.84 to about 2.98ish for a small 12 ounce cup of coffee. This is more costly than Starbucks for a small black coffee, they charge 1.85. Starbucks is already having jokes made about them regarding prices, so I was confused and disappointed to hear they charge that much. I also wish they had earlier hours to accomodate the most common time of day coffee is desired (open at 6 or 7 am) and I wish they would make their prices reasonable again. I buy coffee every day and will be going elsewhere until their costs are justifiable again.Edit to respond to the response:$1.69 for a 12 oz is perfectly reasonable, but as I reported, the price I was charged was right around $2.98. The employee apologized for not having posted the price change yet at the time of the purchase. Updated the stars based on the quality of the response I received.

I wish i lived closer because i would come here daily!! They always have the best hot macchiatos and only $2.50??? Come on now. Amazing. I also love the super broad list of sugar free syrups available. The whole shop is super cute too.

My daughter and I are visiting to do some genealogy research. Stopped in the coffee house this morning and loved the drinks and the service.
