From our beloved regulars
I am new to the area. Zest staff are very warm and welcoming. They have local community events posted on the wall; a lovely touch! I ordered a latte and a pastry, which were delicious! The environment seems family friendly, makes me want to host a weekly book club meeting there. They have loyalty stamp cards (buy 10 drinks, get 1 free). I will definitely be going back soon!
I pass this place on my commute to work every morning so I finally decided to try it. The woman at the front counter (I didn't catch her name ) was wicked nice and very helpful in telling me what some of her personal favorites were. The pumpkin chocolate chip muffins are amazing and my coffee was exactly how I like it. I will definitely be back :)
Love this place. The coffee I think is weak, but I get an extra shot to take care of that. Staff is always very nice and make sure your order is right even when busy. The treats are very good, and though it can seem pricey, it’s not some mass produced products. The scones are my favorite, so many varieties and not bone dry like some scones are. they have one dollar peanut butter dog bones that they make and I routinely get some for my pups :) Can get really busy quick because there’s usually only one person working. Only downside is sometimes the treats like whoopie pies seem stale or dry.
Delicious Coffee Drinks ! Had the Cinnamon Roll Latte with Cold Foam and it was amazing.
Very nice staff, nice little spot, good coffee and good treats. Come here for a local feeling coffee restaurant with charm.
I love this coffee shop just right in the town.. they made a very2 good coffee and u'll get a free too once u keep let them punch the card every time u bought a coffee and they have coffee of the day which i like if i hvent tried it yet.
Barista knows her craft. Good quick stop before hitting the road or out for the weekend. If your other local favorite isn't open yet, again, give Zest a try.
Great coffee selection as well as amazing bagels and pastries, awesome addition to the town of
I have never been disappointed with the quality of the items at zest! I previously have gotten their smoothies and scones but today I tried a vanilla iced coffee with Oatmilk, and it was fantastic! The coffee is very high quality and you can definitely taste it. The syrup is not overly sweet and you can tell that it is house-made. The service is always great, and drinks always come out quick. Zest is a must try if you are in the area!
Every time tasty offerings and solid service. Normally I stick to some basic coffees, but opted to try the Irish cream latte half as sweet, incredibly smooth and just the right amount of flavor. I'll continue to refer people here while they're in town.
