Stopped in here for a coffee because we had just found out not that long ago that this place exists.
It's a very nice place for coffee but the coffee itself has issues. Their house blend - the "Pinnacle" roast - is severely lacking in flavor and very weak. They also don't have the facility to be able to let you try samples of their other blends or roasts, so there's really no way to know what is going to be the best choice.
I ordered a cappuccino and my husband ordered a regular black coffee. He did not like their house roast. My cappuccino was a good example of one, but wasn't very hot unfortunately. It also had a very acrid taste and seemed to need a lot more milk or cream. Most cappuccinos I have had are deliciously milky with a nice big foam on top. This one was rather small, lukewarm and a bit too stout.
I am sure the other items on their coffee menu are good - we haven't tried anything else.....but for our personal tastes we probably won't be back to do so. A week or so ago we were in Morrilton and grabbed a black coffee and cappuccino at Big Cuppa, and it was some of the most delicious coffee we've ever had. Maybe we don't know our...

The pour over coffee I had was extremely under-extracted and was lacking most of the flavor I was hoping to experience in my cup based on the description.
The staff is overall very nice, they obviously care very passionately about their craft and do the best they can with the beans theyāre provided.
The space was very clean and quaint. I really enjoyed looking at the merchandise they sell (which include Fellow products!) The bathroom is also where their mop sink is and they have used, dirty mops just chilling with you in the bathroom. It was clean, just a little off putting.
In a nutshell, it is a very solid coffeeshop with very passionate baristas at the helm. The only thing holding them back is the quality of their beans. I know that lately coffee beans have been getting harder and harder to come by, so the quality may not be fully in their control. If it is something they can change however, I highly suggest that they look into sourcing from an alternative farm or adjusting their...

Their coffee is cold brewed, removing around 70% acidity. One of the pictures posted is their cold brew contraptionsā¦isnāt that unique? In other words itās as smooth as glass in taste without loosing boldness in flavor. Itās so good in fact that other merchants around town serve their coffee. Thatās how I found out about them. While getting breakfast, I had them grind a bag of their Pinnacle coffee to enjoy at home.
I had their cold Chocolate Howler and quiche which is easily the best within a 100 miles.
Their selection of pastries is impressive. Iāve become a instant fan of RMC. This is in the Must...
