Phenomenal experience! The staff was so kind and helpful. The latte I got was perfectly sweet and may be my new favorite coffee shop. Will definitely be coming back
I don’t drink coffee so I pass judgement on every coffee shop based on their chai. Meme’s has the best I’ve ever tried and they don’t skimp on the flavor. everyone who works there is so sweet too! I’m not in Granite very often but when I am, I always stop here.
Always a winner! They will make you just about any type of combination on their menu and it’s always great!
Hey, I really loved this place so much. I’m from Kansas City and work with a small business owner, so this felt like home to me. You all have such great service and the people here are so helpful and sweet. I got a latte with peach cobbler syrup and the avocado toast. The syrup does not taste anything like peach cobbler. I’d recommend using a puree instead so guests can taste the peach cobbler. It just taste like a sweet latte, but I love the idea. The avocado toast doesn’t really need the spinach and carrots. You could really just put a fried egg on top. I do feel like it would a bit tasteless, but loved the idea of the carrots for a fresher crunchier taste. I love the atmosphere, it was so cute. I hope your business elevates so much!!! I was so happy to give you all a try.
We made a quick stop this morning for our first visit—and what a gem! The shop is absolutely adorable: clean, bright, and filled with a warm, welcoming vibe you truly have to experience for yourself. We were greeted by a friendly employee who promptly took our order: avocado toast, a cream cheese pastry, hot chocolate, and a warm salted caramel latte. The coffee was spot-on, with a mild, smooth flavor. The hot chocolate was served at the perfect temperature. The avocado toast featured a generous spread topped with spices and fresh greens—simply delicious. And the buttery, sweet Danish was the perfect final bite to a delightful visit. We’re so glad we stopped in on a whim. We’ll definitely be back! The powder room wall paper is goregous! Enjoying life 1 sip, 1 bite and 1 small town at a time! Explore everything!
