Best coffee in Centerville! The espresso drinks are amazing and the homemade ice cream is to die for. Such a cute, welcoming spot on the square.

We had the best time painting pottery! The staff was so helpful and patient with our kids. BYOB made it even more fun for the adults. Will definitely be back!
