Parcell’s Perk Coffee Shop & Bakery — Restaurant in Benton

As I’m searching for local coffee shops, the thing I notice is that many times the reviewer(s) will review the bakery items, if available, and not the coffee. I’ve chosen a different establishment because the emphasis is on the non-coffee aspects of a place.

I think it’s awesome to have good stuff to go with your coffee! But when choosing between this place and that, I want to know about the joe.

Here I am in Kuttawa, Kentucky. Going cross country, camping, I need good coffee. What are the chances I’m going to find some? After reading about several places, I decided to chance a little place called Parcell’s Perk.

The reviews mention baked goods so I’m a little leery, but here we go!

The first thing I want to make clear is that you walk in and the two areas are completely separate: there’s the coffee shop side and a bakery side.

It must be said that the bakery looks aaaaaaah-may-zing!! Homemade, from-scratch donuts are the first highlighted item! WOW! And they look it! Pies, cakes! Anything you might want! Yum!!

But then there’s the coffee shop. Oooooooh, the coffee shop! It’s perfect! It’s cozy, lots of seating! The requisite free internet! But that’s just the superficial.

The two baristas were…adorable? Amazing? Professional and knew their stuff! Everything one might possibly want in the one entrusted with delivering your morning nectar!

The coffee was perfection. Strong. Perfect amount of foam. Perfect blending of cream. It was quite literally…perfect. In fact, it was so good that I went back for an oh-so-rare second before we left.

And their prices?? So reasonable, that I ended up tipping the difference between what I’d expect to pay at any other coffee house and the total they gave me. The tip jar did quite well.

I cannot say enough good things about this coffee house. There’s not single one thing that I could point to where they could do better or improve. It’s worth the time off the expressway to get there! A hidden gem in...

I live in Eddyville and when our one coffee shop closed for remodeling, I was curious what other options were around. I happened to find this one through Google Maps and I am so glad I visited!! The coffee shop is quiet and cozy with a couch and game table, cozy chairs for chatting, and plenty of tables to spread out at. There was no music playing when I came which I found to be a unique choice but I liked the change. For a smaller coffee shop, their prices are quite average for what you would expect ($4-5 for most drinks). The service was FAST and I enjoyed my butterscotch iced latte. Drinks here are served without a lid and when you receive your drink, you pick whichever lid, straw, cup cozy, etc. suits your style best- unique for sure! I love this little shop and I may be coming here more often to do work and...

Came from Arizona to Kentucky to see some family on the way to some real estate I own in north carolina to check up on property management, and knowing this was a very small town compared to where I live I didnt have hope for a good coffee shop. I was completely wrong, Parcels was amazing, we have a lot of small local shops in arizona with their own atmosphere and this one fits right in. I get a very basic order but the quality seemed very good and I enjoyed every drink I got. All of the staff are very enthusiastic and make you feel welcome. Abbey specifically provided a really great experience and though I was only there for a week was able to make me feel llike I was a regular. If I ever stop back in Draffenville I wont be going anywhere else but Parcels for coffee. Definitely check...
