I usually stop here either on my way to Asheville, it breaks up the ride nicely, or before climbing at Bigfoot Climbing gym. I have gotten both the Poe and the Hemingway lattes and they are delicious! I've also had some of the dessert pastries from Ugly Duckling - the mocha espresso cookie and the cheddar bacon scone. These treats are tasty and perfect snacking size. The interior of this store is very cozy and there are endless reading nooks throughout the space. The first time I enjoyed my coffee and snack outside but this past weekend, I sat upstairs. Both times have been very enjoyable - one minor note, they closed early on Sunday, at noon instead of 3pm, to prepare holiday decorations. Unfortunately, I arrived at 11:30am so I didn't get to stay and read as long as I originally planned. Wish they would have posted on their social media (I looked them up on Instagram before visiting again)! Other than that little hiccup, this is a must-visit in Morganton!

I was happy to see them take over the old Java Planet building (which is a former drive-through bank branch) several years ago. The service here is super friendly. Picked up a hot peppermint mocha today and chatted briefly with the co-owner. Great location for grabbing a coffee on the go (though if you blink, you might miss the place, so keep an eye out for it). They offer punch cards so that you can earn a free drink, and right now, you can also get a free drink if you purchase a minimum of $20 on a gift card. Check 'em out if you haven't already!
