Delicious coffee and award-winning cupcakes – what more could one want out of life? The folks at The Coffee Shop clearly aim to overwhelm with goodness. In addition to specialty coffee drinks (blended drinks called monsoons and Spanish lattes with sweetened condensed milk have devoted followings) and the cupcakes that have twice landed them on Food Network’s “Cupcake Wars” (red velvet and their signature “coffee and cigarettes” cupcake are bestsellers), they also serve breakfast, lunch and an assortment of pastries, from cinnamon rolls to whoopie pies. Everything is fresh and homemade in a suburban farm setting – simple perfection.
