This coffee shop is incredible! The decor is antique coffee grinders from late 1800s to early 1900s. A great look back in time to the manufactures of these grinders. The owner's hosted a reception for the ACME (Association of Coffee Mill Enthusiasts) Club. We all had a great time looking at the owner's collection of mills and enjoying the variety of food and drinks put together by the staff. Great map on the wall to mark your home state too.

Great atmosphere, interesting stuff to look at, friendly staff. Unfortunately, the coffee was not good and pretty pricey. Not worth it.

Caffe Museo and its baristas are outstanding. The shop is beautiful, sunny and open with several tables and niches to sit. They know their coffee. It was delicious.

This place would rank as an excellent coffee shop anywhere. The store was open and bright with plenty of seating. The baristas made a proper cortado. It had an extensive collection of biscotti. We enjoyed our visit.

So happy that we stumbled across this wonderful coffee experience while driving I-64 from Lexington VA to Charleston WV. Looking for coffee, the Caffe Museo popped up on my Apple Maps so we drove into downtown Clifton Forge and found on-street parking. When you enter the space, you will be amazed by the coffee grinders...the number, the various sizes and colors...dating back several centuries! Certainly a museum-quality collection!! Worth taking time to peruse! We ordered coffee...two different types...both tasty. And a kalamata olive and cheese croissant, plus biscotti. They carry a line of biscotti; we enjoyed the almond and pistachio flavors. Sandwiches can be ordered too. The owner was in the back making sandwiches while popping out and talking with us about her collection. If we are ever back in the area, we look forward to stopping by again!!

I hate to say we were disappointed. A friend of mine and I were staying in Warm Springs. We saw the cafe on Facebook and thought we'd drive the distance to visit. The museum articles were interesting. The coffee not so much. We wanted to like it. They sell various boutique coffees at the cafe. We got 2 cappuccinos and asked for the milk to be extra hot. They were both tepid at best and had weak, no flavor at all. Not a good advertisment for the coffee/espresso they sell. I would have loved to have bought some to take home. The biscotti was great! The owner was showing someone around in the museum and was loud, kinda ruined the vibe. I wouldn't recommend it as a quiet place to work or study. When we tried to take our dirty dishes to the counter the owner told us they belonged in a dirty dish bin and she wasn't sure where the counter/Barista was, that she hadn't been feeling well that day. LOL Not a thing to tell customers during Covid.

I knew that while in the area, the Museum of Antique Coffee Mills & Coffee Bar had to be one of my first stops! When I reached out to them beforehand, the staff were so friendly in sharing their updated seasonal hours, particularly for the weekends - thank you! This gem-of-a-place is the only coffee mill museum in North America - really! When you step inside, you'll see a great exhibit of antique coffee grinders as well as other beautiful art pieces (statues, paintings, and decor) that you can peruse - everything seems to be so perfectly curated! The coffee bar offers expresso, latte, cappuccino, coffee, tea, affogato, iced or hot coffee, and biscotti. We had the hot cocoa, the affogato, and the delicious iced coffee that had ice cubes, made out of coffee, so your drink doesn't get watered down - what a thoughtful touch! Ms. Judith, the owner, was very welcoming and very sweet! She shared about her collection and her business, and even some planned upcoming events at the store - I wish nothing but the best for her! Be sure to stop by this neat place and support a local business - you won't be disappointed! +ask for Ms. Judith! +delicious iced coffee (coffee ice cubes used!) +great collection of coffee mills and other art pieces! +plenty of parking in town

Stopped by today (finally! Long time listener, first time caller) and ordered Vanilla Latte and couldn't resist some gluten free chocolate chip cookies ( no, I don't eat gluten free but they were out of the regular). The latte was splendid. Cheaper than some of those national brands and a heck of a lot better! The cookies were also tasty, I got some to share, but he may not get his
