The Perch Coffee House — Restaurant in Dubois

On our way to Yellowstone, we stopped at The Perch for our morning joe. Dubois (pronounced DEW-boyz, jes’ so ya know) is a beautiful little town in scenic Wyoming. The Perch was a great way to start our day when you’re grading the quality of a man’s coffee.

I’m not sure who all works at The Perch. Perhaps there’s a female crew? And I’m not asking because I take offense to a distinctly male presence with my morning coffee; I like men to be men and one should be able to count on that in a state like Wyoming.

All that to say that they weren’t the man-bun, hit-you-in-the-feels kind of men (no offense to the man-bun types…intended…can’t help what you do with it). They were the tell-me-what-you-want-then-get-yer-butt-outta-the-way kind of men. Which is all right by me as long as their coffee is good.

I was carrying her and there were no other customers in your shop. Pretty...

Great local place to stop and grab a good cup of coffee when you filling up at the gas station across the street. If you are lucky, like me, you'll catch the local news from the older generation about where to find and how big the snakes really were 😂. The owner (at least I think it was) was polite, nice and caring about the customers.
