The store is clean and organized. They have so many flavors of popcorn and they offer samples, be adventurous and try them, they will not disappoint you. Staff is super helpful and kind.

You can also get chocolate covered nuts, suckers, freeze dried candy, etc. I'm telling you this store has awesome options and is worth every minute of the stop.

My husband picked up a box of donuts from here this morning. Just the basic kind of donuts, no…read morespecial ones. I picked out the vanilla long John and the entire thing tasted oddly like buttered popcorn. Didn't hate it, it was just strange. My son picked out the strawberry filled donut and that one also tasted like buttered popcorn, he didn't mind. My husband and I later in the day shared the blueberry donut and I was at my last bite and thankfully I looked down at it because there was a thick black hair stuck inside it, grossed me out a bit.

I think my only complaint is it doesn't feel super sanitary. The lady that was working in there was friendly. I really enjoyed the peanut butter cookie and the triangular pastry that was filled with Bavarian cream. Those were both my favorites. I thought the strawberry sugar cookie did not have a ton of flavor. Everything is very reasonable in there. I got four items for under five dollars. I want to try the jalapeño cheese bread next.

For sure there's not much happening in Morris. It's not known for being entertaining, and the few…read morerestaurants kind of suck. Alpine Coffee Bar is one of the few places that can even be argued to be cool. Has the basics and not much else. The prices are okay for this kind of thing. A drive to the park is when we came in for coffee and a bite. It was very quiet in here. This is probably always quiet. Coffee selection is pretty pedestrian. There's nothing fancy, just basic stuff. It's about $5 for a latte. They do have non dairy milk. As for the food, there's hardly anything. It's $3 for a bagel. These are pretty boring bagels as well. Oh well, we just needed anything to get us going. The inside is pretty clean but it seems like a boring atmosphere to be honest. Came in because it was about the only place open in town so we didn't have much of a choice. It's hardly what could be considered cool or hip. The coffee is mostly boring and there's hardly any food options.

I was heading past Morris on my way back to Chicago and called a friend for a recommendation of a…read morecoffee shop. Without hesitation, he enthusiastically said, Alpine Coffee Bar, you'll love it!" I made my way from the interstate a short way to the charming main street (Liberty). It reminds me of the small town near where I grew up, except for being a few blocks further. The wide street and old town main street architecture and ambience are well worth a visit. The cafe itself is warm and cozy, and the proprietors were great. Excellent coffee and poppyseed scone, fun conversation, and a great place to work for a little while, perched in the larger side room at the workbench-style counter along the front, looking out at the street through the windows of an old garage roll-up door with floor to ceiling glass panels. The owners even humored me to sing a selfie Christmas message for my friend. Fortunately for you, I'll share some photos, but will spare you our selfie video. Morris is perched along the Illinois River and close to the Des Plaines Dolomite Prairies Land & Water Reserve, Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, Starved Rock State Park (one of my favorite places in Illinois)... I was also inspired to check out a little history on Wikipedia. I always enjoy the origins and formation of cool small towns. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris%2C_Illinois "...The Allen Paper Car Wheel Works were based on East North Street in Morris, which supplied the Pullman Palace Car Company in Chicago from 1867 to 1890 with composite wheels for their railway carriages.[14][15] By the 1920s, the paper mill had become one of the largest employers in Morris, producing cardboard boxes of various shapes, sizes, and colors that were shipped throughout the US.[16]" "...In early 1960, the world's first electronic switching system was installed at the Morris central office.[18] The system was a milestone in telephone switching history, an experiment whose planning started in the early 1950s, and led to the largest sustained research and development program toward a single goal in the Bell System..." Much of the power for not just the state, but the whole region, is generated nearby from nuclear power plants and wind turbines. Since I'm in the electric transmission and distribution business, and a big fan of carbon-free power, I enjoyed that element.
