I stopped in to this new little donut shop during a trip to Moulton. I was pleasantly surprised by…read morethe cute and clean coffee shop atmosphere. Also pleased with the selection for breakfast: croissant or biscuit sandwiches, donuts, pigs in a blanket... I wanted a big breakfast so I chose two of the pigs in a blanket made with full size sausage dogs. Then I also couldn't pass up the face-sized cinnamon roll for just a $1.50 which I planned to save for later. Sausage dogs were very good and filling. Croissant roll tasted freshly baked. Believe it or not I actually saved the giant cinnamon roll for my next morning's breakfast. It was still very good but tasted more like a donut than a cinnamon roll dough. Reviews from friends on the donuts have also been all thumbs up!

They were super quiet in the mid-afternoon when I stopped by. The establishment was clean and although I don't know if I'd say it had a particularly established "vibe," it was a nice space. I was greeted quickly by a friendly employee. Their large menu is posted on the wall and they had a lot of selections. In addition to coffee, they have smoothies, lemonade, and energy drink refreshers, as well as some small bites like cake pops and bagels. The employee was quick to offer assistance and gave recommendations based on the things I said I liked. I wound up ordering a "Dude Brew" latte, which is a white mocha with peanut butter and caramel flavors. I really like peanut butter mochas and don't see them at shops that often, so I was excited to try this one. It was prepared for me quickly and the drink was quite pretty when it came out. It was also, I thought, quite generous in size in relation to the price. Overall, I liked the drink. It had a discernible and enjoyable peanut butter flavor and the white mocha didn't taste artificial (definitely something I've struggled with at other shops I've tried lately). Personally, I didn't detect any caramel flavor and I thought it was a little heavy on the milk, but I definitely liked the drink and would probably order it again. There are lots of items to try here and I had a positive experience. Thanks, Local Grind!

But that was my order and no one called me. It's a cute place and the drink we did receive was good but why lie? Absolutely never going back and wouldn't recommend.

I was in Hartselle about a month ago and realized Falkville wasn't too much further away. I wanted…read moreto try a new-to-me coffee shop and so I made the drive down to try out Cross Ties. The Falkville downtown is very small and quaint but cute. There's street parking right in front of the shop and I nabbed a spot. I walked into a really adorable environment - it felt super homey and several people were at work on laptops or chatting. They also had a few selections of local crafts and gifts, which I enjoyed checking out. They have small bites and cafe type breakfast and lunch items (eg paninis, breakfast sandwiches, cookies, muffins, etc) and an extensive hot and iced drink menu. They did have some Valentine's Day styled seasonal specialty lattes advertised, but I didn't really like the sound/flavor combinations of any of them. Instead, I was able to build my own latte with flavor add-ins, which is nice. I ordered an iced latte with dark chocolate and maybe cinnamon? It's been a while since my visit but I seem to recall cinnamon. The service was adequate; my drink was ready in a timely fashion and the barista checked to see if I wanted an alternative milk. However, I didn't get the most friendly vibe and when I asked about the specialty drinks (e.g., which one is your favorite?) the answer was pretty flat and noncommittal. Idk, just a slightly weird vibe. Nothing crazy unpleasant, I just didn't feel very welcome, I guess. No biggie, I wanted to start the drive home anyway. I enjoyed my drink. It was nicely balanced and I could definitely taste the dark chocolate. And, unless I'm hallucinating this memory/flavor add-in, the cinnamon gave it a nice kick. It was a pleasant pick-me-up on the ride home. If you're in the area, I'd recommend stopping by for a tasty drink and some fun decor/gift shopping.

I work in Decatur on a sort of seasonal basis and recently had my last visit out to the area for…read morewhat will likely be a while. I wanted to go out in style, so I decided to go to this little ice cream parlor for a treat to sort of say goodbye. The shop is small and shares some open space with a next door gift shop type space. It's cute and welcoming inside, with a lot of homages to dogs. I'm guessing Tess is the Frenchie, but regardless...the Frenchie stuff is extra cute. :) They have about 10-15 different ice cream flavors and some neat sounding soda mixers. So think of your favorite soda (Sprite, Dr. Pepper, Coke, etc.) and then add some flavors like raspberry, vanilla, pineapple, peach, etc. They have some existing winning combinations or you can create your own from a list of flavors! I got a single scoop of the "Better Brownie Batter" and also opted to try a lemonade with pineapple and peach flavors added in. I wasn't sure about those two flavors together (I love them both independently but wasn't sure they'd mix well) and the friendly employee very kindly offered to remake my drink for free if I wasn't satisfied with my creation. So nice! I don't remember the exact cost but I remember thinking it was reasonable. I took my treats outside and sat on one of the metal picnic tables to enjoy the blustery, sunshiney day. No need to remake my lemonade; the flavors definitely worked and I quite enjoyed them. You could taste both the pineapple and the peach! The lemonade is sparkling; I liked the fizz but just an FYI. The ice cream was delicious! I thought I saw it was Hershey's brand ice cream but I'm not sure. It really was better brownie batter. The body of the ice cream was super smooth and creamy, the brownie chunks were huge and tasted exactly like brownie batter, and the serving was super generous for just a single scoop! After looking around their social media, it looks like they often do fun offers like an ice cream advent calendar with all their flavors. How cute! My only regret is not stopping by earlier in the season so I could have multiple visits. Hope to see y'all again next time I'm in Decatur!
