Crema's Take
“Project 47 Smokehouse excels at what it does best—smoked meats with genuine depth of flavor, particularly their brisket and wings that carry real smoke character—making it worth the detour for BBQ enthusiasts despite being primarily a smokehouse rather than a coffee destination. The coffee seems to play a supporting role here, so visit expecting solid specialty coffee paired with legitimately good barbecue, not for the cafe experience alone. It's the kind of place bikers and road-trippers stop at because the food rewards the effort, though reviews suggest consistency varies between the smoked items and other menu options.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast on the menu. Family friendly.
