My husband, our three girls, and I visited this restaurant today and were blown away by the experience! The paninis were absolutely sensational — even my picky eater devoured hers, and it had both spinach and tomato, which is a first for her. The ice cream was incredible, and to our delight, they had Superman flavor — our family favorite!
The prices were very reasonable, and the atmosphere was clean, welcoming, and full of charm. The owner was an absolute gem — kind, helpful, and genuinely engaging in conversation not just with my husband and me, but with our girls as well.
From start to finish, everything about this place exceeded our expectations. I truly have nothing but good things to say. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful lunch experience

My wife & I made the trip to Lakefield for Kiehl’s Bakery and found SOJO on the way. We are both coffee lovers so we had to try it out and we were SO glad we did! The coffee is phenomenal. My wife said her mocha frap was one of the best she’s ever had. Highly recommend stopping if you are in the area. You won’t be disappointed!! 🫶🏼🥰❤️

Everything I have ever gotten here is delicious!! They are very consistent with their drinks. I drive out of my way to go here!!! Everything is high quality, they have a very high standard and all of their food and drinks are well crafted!

Great place. Fully embraces and boasts of Lakefield via antiquities displayed proudly. Bakery items and refreshing drinks are great. Service is top-notch. Enjoy the drive thru, but be sure to stop in some time to view inside. Pays great homage to its home town

Yummy. Informative about the coffee and tea and the decor is amazing. Worth the stop. Lakefield antiques wanted.

Pulled off I90 because we wanted good coffee and a snack. It was a quick and easy detour. The yogurt parfait was delicious and the granola tasted homemade. The coffee had a rich flavor. The bathrooms were clean and the decor was fun. Lots of hometown pride in this coffee shop and it felt good to support it. Would recommend and would revisit.

Really good coffee with tons of quality menu options! Atmosphere and decor is top tier on top of great service! Always make sure to stop, even if I have to go out of my way, on my way through Lakefield.

I love trying new things and this place has an amazing Pina coloda smoothie

Truly can't say enough about this lovely place. They roast their own coffee to perfection, including espresso. We had a dark roast and an Americano. The "kitchen" doesn't open until 11 and we were a bit early to be able to order a sandwich but they had bagels with cream cheese and sausage, egg, and cheese biscuits that were delicious, plus we had a delectable french toast muffin.
The ambiance is so soothing and also a bit educational. The decor from the personal collection of the owner was entirely local historical items which made it feel like a fun museum. We thoroughly enjoyed the various displays and particularly the old coin op coffee machines.
The service was wonderful. The woman working behind the counter had all the patience in the world for my wandering covid brain (yes, covid causes brain damage apparently) and not only answered my many questions but also filled me in on the history of the place and her joy in working there.
We also had the pleasure to meet the owner. We figured he was the owner because he was meticulously cleaning as he walked through and had an eye for detail that fit the space. He was an absolute delight to chat with.
So glad we stumbled across such a lovely spot. Wonderful way to start a day of travel!

Great service, delicious coffee and tea, the biscuits and bakery was excellent, really neat local decor. Highly recommended.
Fabulous coffee - extremely wide variety quality of options from nitro cold brew to any flavor of hot latte imaginable. Super kind and welcoming staff. They carry Alpha Alternatives!!

Do yourself a favor (7am-3pm) and drive the 2 whole miles off the Interstate and stop in at this wonderful little oasis of a coffee shop, hosted by delightful, caring family-owners behind the counter. You can tell they not only have an eye for Quality and for Detail, for aesthetic and customer experience too, but they clearly put their heart & soul into this small-town business. Obviously you'll need a coffee, but promise me you'll grab a fresh-baked pastry too. They're delicious! (I know announcing this makes it more likely that the croissants will be gone when *I* get there, but alas... (... Maybe they'll save me one in the back?))GO HERE! ?
