I love coffee shops, so I always get excited when I can try a new to me spot, like The Borough. I…read moredon't get to Allendale very often (maybe twice a year) so when I was heading to Grand Valley's campus for an event recently, I made sure to allow extra time to stop by. The parking lot in front is pretty small, and there is only one access point, so if you go past it, you'll have to turn around near the apartments behind it. Don't drive on the sidewalk... I didn't, mostly because there is a sign that says, "This is a sidewalk" which made me laugh. (Truly that should be an entrance into the parking lot!) The space is very bright and airy with cute decor and space to get some work or studying done. I was greeted right away when I walked in and I had a tough time deciding what to order. I wasn't hungry, but I love that they have a full on food menu - including salads, burgers(!!!), bagels, toasts, paninis, pastries, etc. Plus all the regular coffee items, boba, smoothies, and teas. I went with one of the seasonal specials, the banana bread matcha. It didn't take too long to come out and it was very tasty - not really what I was expecting, but I liked it. It reminded me of a very green banana (which is how I prefer bananas), it wasn't super sweet but also not super matcha-y. They are expanding their space, so I am interested in coming back to see what that looks like and to order more delicious drinks and try the food!

They have great parking but also offer a drive thru option which is placed between the to buildings so pay attention or you might miss it. They take credit card and cash.

He took the time to make sure he was getting every order correct, demonstrating his attention to detail; something you want out of a barista! The shop was cozy, easily accommodating my party. Most importantly, the coffee was fantastic!! Everybody enjoyed their brews/lattes, and we all raved about how we WILL be back! I recommend everyone to try this sweet cafe!

So you know the ambiance is amazing. And the service is impeccable. And most importantly, the coffee is OUT OF THIS WORLD. I have some beans at home (vanilla cinnamon is where it's at), but get a Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cold Brew. I'm not a "foo-foo" coffee girl, but that's heaven in a cup.

There is some parking around the area but can fill up quickly if there's a popup. I've never actually tried any drinks from Littlefoot but have gone to support many of the local small businesses they partner with for events. I love how they use their space to work with and uplift other local businesses. I often go to buy baked goods from Foliage and Flour as they are a retailer. The interior is actually really cute and each room has a slightly different vibe and really unique wallpaper. I definitely recommend coming here for a quick drink.

There are two rooms decorated differently with wallpaper and a variety of seating choices. It is located right off Chicago drive in Grandville and there is plenty of easy parking. I think they do coffee tours because when I stopped by, they seemed to be giving one. I usually buy their coffee at Bridge Street Market, and the Up North blend is my favorite! They have a few blends and I haven't loved all of them, but I love Up North!

I stopped in about a month ago for a healthy breakfast option and enjoyed my cappuccino with cappuccino chip muffin, a bit of fruit garnish and the Signature quiche (basically an assortment of ham and veggies baked in egg with a crust). It tasted like they made it and like it hadn't been frozen and reheated like some establishments in the area. Everything tasted fine and I noted that it was well supported by the local community. Ample free parking out front and reasonable prices for a cafe. Very Hudsonville vibes, but it sufficed and I would eat here again.

I've been on the hunt for good brunch ever since moving back to Michigan seven years ago, and the best spot I've found is unfortunately two hours from where I live! My family makes sure to swing through at least once a year on our way back from Lake Michigan. My spouse and older kid love Sy's pot pie, and my younger kid loves the kids' pancakes with chocolate chips and sausage on the side. Not only is the food great, but Lisa is an absolute gem. She was our server when we first found this place in 2024, and on every visit since, she's made sure to stop by and chat, even if we're not in her section. We love her and we love eating here - we only wish it were closer!
