I hadn't been to the Greenroom in quite a while, but was across the street and needed a bite and…read morecaffeine for the Friday afternoon. I walked in a little past 1pm, having studied the chalkboard outside with a delightful-sounding selection of spring specials. As I'm ordering, the barista and I alike see another group walk in. And another. And another-- I'm not seeing anyone else in the rather small physical establishment, and as a former barista am beginning to sweat a bit for this Greenroom employee and all of the orders he is about to have to deal with, seemingly by himself (cue the cheerful chime announcing more customers, and more customers). As I wait for my order, grateful to be the first in this long line, I sit to casually read a book and take my opportunity to observe my fellow patrons of this fine little spot. I hear the barista asking customers if they're okay with waiting, and he begins to ask customers if they're okay with waiting a minute for their orders. I'm content, as I have no urgent arrangements, and the now plastic-gloved barista comes up to me, informing me that they have no lime to garnish the avocado toast I've ordered and asking if that was okay. I assert as much and he returns to the line; I think to myself that he could have saved the time and not told me and I wouldn't have known the difference, but I'm pleased with his attention to detail. I get my to-go box of avocado toast with an egg and am pleased to open it and try a bite. I feel that it could have done with red pepper flakes (my favorite), but the everything bagel seasoning added a nice texture and the overall flavor profile was delightfully savory. As for my drink, which came later, it was the Good Riddance: a vanilla cold brew with lime pie cold foam (which lived up to the name tremendously). It also had what I believe to be graham cracker or pie crust crumbles on the top that were delightful! The drink was delicious and perfect for the spring weather. I sit upstairs as I always do, but specifically on the patio where I can see all of MidCity and the surrounding businesses. There's nonintrusive and enjoyable music presumably coming from the Camp itself? After an hour or so of enjoying my spoils, I return to the counter below to see if the barista is still there now that the rush is over. He is now accompanied by another coworker, blessedly, and I learn that his name is Caleb. We chat for a few moments and I introduce myself before leaving, but not before taking another picture of all the event calendars for the week and month. Now I'm positively fueled for my afternoon and grateful for the relaxed atmosphere. (Thanks for reading this far if you did, and shoutout again to Caleb for doing his job tremendously! He informed me that he enjoys a good rush of customers, and I replied that I would have cried to have been in the situation that he handled with great poise and dedication. The great service alongside the excellent product left me wanting to return quickly!)

I like the monkey bread - it's not too sweet, an excellent complement to their espresso. Their espresso tonic, which I had on my second visit while I was in town, is a delicious drink.

Getting new tires in Athens the other week, I (sadly) noticed an obituary on their bulletin board for Cheryl Prince Sendowski who owned the coffee shoppe from 1998 until it was sold in 2013. This was one spot my Birthday Club group met at in the late 80s and early 90s. We enjoyed their simplistic sandwiches and iced teas. I'm not a coffee snob by any stretch, and their coffee doesn't evoke great memories for me; however, I do recall it being "fair trade," even back then. The sandwiches were good, the place was nice to relax in, and the back patio was even more eclectic with various statuary and just "stuff" hanging from the fence. Sandwiches were nothing you can't make at home, but they were good, edible, quick and filling! The community bulletin board was always clustered with fliers and business cards for music lessons, missing pets, and pressure washers. It's a local's place for locals and had one regular, Mike Maples who was conferred with the title "Mayor" of Ole Town Coffee. The gazebo out front is quaint to sit in. Do know parking is tight. There aren't many spaces out front to park. I think the back alley may have some spots. For a slice of Huntsville, I would recommend visiting OTC!

There's more outdoor seating than indoor seating. Prices seem relatively cheaper than other coffee places I've been to in town. I ended up ordering a bagel with strawberry cream cheese and a plain latte with oat milk. The strawberry cream cheese was served in a plastic container, and seemed different from store bought cream cheese. It had a date of 1-12, but still seemed weirdly dried on the outside. Anyways, the bagel was good. The latte was just okay. Nothing special. Not sure if people order any different drinks while they're here, but I'm definitely tempted to come back and try some of the teas they have.

I stopped in around 1:30 p.m. and was the only customer in the store when I placed my order. While I was waiting, several other customers came in. Rather than beginning the drinks, one barista continued taking everyone's orders before anything was made. There were two baristas visible the entire time, but the second didn't start making drinks until the first had finished taking the full line of orders. It made the wait much longer than it seemed necessary. To make matters worse, my matcha wasn't mixed properly--it was full of chunks, I included a picture, making it unpleasant to drink. After waiting that long, I expected much better. Unfortunately, this hasn't been a one-time experience. Every visit seems to involve an unusually long wait for a drink that's average at best. It's especially disappointing because when this location first opened, the drinks and service were consistently good. I kept hoping each occasional returning visit would be better, but today's experience was enough for me to decide not to come back.

The ingredients were fresh, the quality is top notch and each beverage was full of flavor. There are a lot of big name Coffee Shops that are running solely on Brand Recognition and people keep the seats warm in those establishments, but if you don't try this amazing Shoppe, you will be doing yourself a great disservice. I do have one cautionary advisory though........ everything on the menu should come with a Surgeon General's Warning Label that reads, " WARNING!!!! Consuming any one of these beverages will turn you into an Addict! You will crave these beverages at the most inconvenient time (like when this business is closed for the day, when you are away on a business trip or when you wake up in the middle of the night looking for a tasty treat). The Owners cannot be held responsible for your obsession, but they promise to provide immediate relief for your cravings. Disclaimer: Relief is provided during normal operating business hours only (unless you happen to personally know the Owners, to which you may be able to Sweet Talk them into making you a tasty beverage after hours by appointment only). Dang it! Now I want a Wilberry Smoothie and I think Gathering Grounds is closed right now (sad face and growling stomach).

Finally found this coffee truck while at a science night event at a local elementary school last…read moreweek! I first heard about this truck maybe a year or two ago through social media. They had really nice branding and the drinks looked good, but they almost never seem to post their schedule in advance so it's been hard for me to track them down. Even though it was evening time, I couldn't miss my opportunity to try them when they were so convenient! They have standard coffee drinks, chai, lemonade, a few fizzy energy drinks, etc. -- pretty typical roster for the more hip/modern quick service coffee stops (or trucks, as the case may be!). There's maybe one or two seasonal specialties but it's mostly choose your style of drink + add flavors if you want. As such, I chose a small iced latte with mocha and hazelnut flavor pumps. This tends to be a reliable winner for me when there's not a specialty drink I want to try. They don't have a huge variety of flavors but certainly enough that most people should be able to find something that works. I grabbed an iced chai and a lemonade for some coworkers too. :) Pricing is about as I'd expect. The service was nice! The truck is really high off the ground so I had to reach because I'm short lol. The barista/employee was very pleasant and made our drinks quickly. I enjoyed my drink! Idk if this'll be read like the compliment I intend it to be, but my drink reminded me of my ideal Dunkin experience -- and I like Dunkin! Slightly thinner consistency than your average latte, a little on the sweet side, flavors not crazy complex or nuanced but just enjoyably sweet and nutty. Would drink again!
