What does one do when it's cold, foggy and just a blah day? Why, you get in the car and head for some delicious coffee. That's what we ended up doing that gloomy Saturday. The Java Highway took us to a location up in Ashtabula, Ohio called Harbor Perk Coffeehouse & Roasting Co. We were excited to visit here as we heard a lot of great things about them. 


We do have to add that this location is quite busy. Parking is limited, but we did see some other parking down a ways. Walking through the front door it appeared to be a bit congested, but the further you emerged the more space opened up. The staff was very friendly and helped us pick out the perfect drink. There had been a post on their Facebook page about having an Rwanda blend. One of our followers encouraged us to try it. They told us that we wouldn't be disappointed. 

They didn't have any Rwanda brewed but the staff offered to grind some up for us to take home and sample. They do offer sample packets at a reasonable cost. 


So you're probably wondering what we have in our cups? Well...we ordered some of their house blend which was Uganda blend. Good coffee, but a slight bitter near the end. When we got home that evening we brewed the Rwanda blend right away. Our verdict...Definitely one of our favorites!

We need to add that they roast their own coffee. Their setup is visible to the public.



A couple lattes were ordered as well. John had the Snow on the Beach latte (coconut and blueberry). We both tried it and Bea stated that the coconut was the prominant flavor, but John disagreed. He said that the blueberry was the most prominant. The drink was not overly sweet, which is a win-win for us.

Bea ordered a Confident Capricorn latte (toasted marshmallow and maple syrup). Once again we couldn't agree on the prominant flavor. John felt that the toasted marshmallow was prominant flavor, followed by the maple syrup. For Bea, she felt the maple syrup stood out more. Another win-win for not being overly sweet. 

The hunger gremlin struck, leaving John craving one of their food items. He went with the Olé Fisherman (smoked salmon, capers, red onion, lemon juice and cream cheese). He gave it a "AMAZING" rating. Bea isn't a fan of fish, she did try it but felt that a fair review couldn't be given. 


One thing we noticed and it was such a great thing to see. Patrons were gathered together. We saw them socializing, playing games, and the greatest thing of it all was that the phones were put away. The feeling that we experienced was comfort.

Keepsmiling A' Latte Kesson & Co.

Keepsmiling A'Latte Kesson & Co. 162A West Pine Street Mount Airy, North Carolina 27030 Keepsmiling A'Latte Kesson & Co. After a long night of travelling we were desperately in need of some coffee. We knew that Mount Airy, North Carolina was close to where we were heading. A little coffee shop located downtown Mount Airy called Keepsmiling A'Latte. Mount Airy is not only known to be a cute little town, but it is the home of Andy Griffith. Anyone that grew up watching The Andy Taylor show knows Mayberry. After walking around to stretch our legs we made our way to the coffee shop. The birds were still waking up by the time we were strolling through the doors. After our good morning greeting we were told to ask the barista about the story based around Keepsmiling A'Latte. We won't give the story away, but if you ever make it to Mount Airy be sure to stop in and have them tell you. It will definitely bring tears to your eyes.  Kesson When we were deciding on our...

Little Birdie Wine Nest

Little Birdie Wine Nest 6060 Broadview Road Parma, OH 44134 Little Birdie Wine Nest Parma, Ohio is the old stomping grounds for Bea. She grew up in the area many years prior to heading off to Colorado to marry the love of her life...John. We were coming in the area for a concert and wanted to grab some coffee prior to meeting up with the other party.  While looking for a coffee shop, Little Birdie Wine Nest caught our attention. We looked over what they had to offer and thought it would make for a perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee or two. If anyone that knows us would know that we would lean more towards two or more cups of coffee 😊 Once you enter you will be able to see that they have a little something for everyone. Not only can you get coffee, but you can select wine from a large selection. We do have to add that they have several social events taking place. Check out the website to get the most up to date information.  They have several items that you can choose from...

Frankenmuth Kaffee Haus

  Kaffee Haus 500 S. Main Street. Frankenmuth, MI 48734 Kaffee Haus After spending the night in Frankenmuth, MI. we took a few moments to stroll through the town while things were still calm, and not as busy. Kaffee Haus was located right across the street from our hotel, The Marv Herzog Hotel.   The Kaffee Haus was calling out to us. We knew that we had to stop and check them out. Boy, are we glad we did! Since it was a Sunday morning they weren't that busy, which was perfect for us. It gave us some time to really look at the menu and talk to the staff.  Bea found the perfect drink for herself. An iced Sweet Maple Pumpkin Latte, the perfect combination for an Autumn drink. Well pumpkin is acceptable anytime of the year if you ask Bea. We hope that some of our favorite coffee shops in Ohio bring this combination together and put it on their menu. Definitely, a favorite latte! Now with John he went in a little more different direction. He indulged in a hot Caramel Cin...
