The appetizers were a bit of a letdown due to how small they were, especially the mushrooms. My peanut butter jelly smashburger was different but very good, and everyone else said their food was decent. I didn't enjoy the pepper jack bites.

The bacon dealybobs are also excellent along with the house bread which we had toasted. Great coffees, lattes, espresso, they have it all.

Like... bad. It was good and strong but I don't know if it was decaf. My sister liked her drink. Price: I think my sister paid $8-something for both. Hers was $6+.

It's the kind of place you instantly know you'll want to return to. This was our first time here and we were go glad we made the little trip down to Bourbon, MO! We ordered the bacon and egg panini, and it was cooked perfectly. Whatever homemade seasoned butter they use deserves special recognition--it added so much flavor and made an already great sandwich even better. Of course, the dessert case was impossible to ignore. Everything looked incredible, and choosing was no easy task. We finally settled on a pecan brownie and a sea-salt chocolate chip gooey butter cake slice. Both were fantastic, but the gooey butter cake completely stole the show. Hands-down, it was the absolute best gooey butter cake I have ever had--and I've tried many from plenty of bakers over the years. This single slice may have changed my outlook on life. They've set the bar so high that I honestly don't know how anyone else could top it. Warmed up just as the owner suggested, it was melt-in-your-mouth perfection with a tender, flaky crust and incredible flavor. Absolutely phenomenal. We will definitely be back again--and you should go too!
