KC was an overnight stop and we topped off our mini brewery tour with a coffee stout, which I had seen on their website. I thought what a fabulous idea to combine brewing coffee and brewing beer in one business! I HAD to try the coffee … More stout for which Rochester is its OWN collaborator. Didn't disappoint. Took advantage of Thursday's special Buy a Draft and get a free ($3.50) Taster of your choice. Delicious looking pastries were still available at end of day. Im sure their coffee is amazing. Laid back vibe invites locals to come for coffee in the mornings and Happy Hours after work. Check them out if you are in town.

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of Chai Latte and Lemonade here. Both display a distinct flavor at a very reasonable price, especially for the area.
Vibes are great for this area with tons of room inside if you’re coming as a group … More or want to be away from people.
I really appreciate the late closing time as well, a solid choice if you need a drink late in the day.

Excellent coffee, tea and croissants! Both my partner and I loved the iced americano and blood orange tea had nice flavors. I don’t drink alcohol, so it’s too bad I can’t review their beers, but the menu seemed interesting. Their customer … More service was great and the atmosphere is cozy and clean.
The outside parking was pretty easy.
