"This coffee falls into your stomach, and straightway there is a general commotion. Ideas begin to move like the battalions of the Grand Army of the battlefield, and the battle takes place. Things remembered arrive at full gallop, ensuing to the wind. The light cavalry of comparisons deliver a magnificent deploying charge, the artillery of logic hurry up with their train and ammunition, the shafts of with start up like sharpshooters. Similes arise, the paper is covered with ink; for the struggle commences and is concluded with torrents of black water, just as a battle with powder" - Honore de Balzac.

A nice place to be...


We have new tables outside and the weather is perfect for enjoying a coffee, tea, hot chocolate, frozen mojo, or fruit smoothie. Seriously.

Haiku 61 Coffeehouse

We have been trying our hand at haiku to describe our coffee specialites in a succint way. The whole seies is only 51 syllables, so it won't take long to read...

Espresso
In twenty seconds...
Rich roast, fine grind, hissing steam-
A small, fragrant cup.





Cappuccino
Tumbling espresso,
Cold milk teased into hot froth -
A perfect union.

Mocha
Close your eyes for it...
Milk, espresso, chocolate
Three part harmony.
