I used to go to Boldly Going all the time, then my wife and I decided to try Coffee Corner for kicks one Saturday morning. I was surprised by how GOOD their coffee is. It's strong and their espresso is the strongest in town. There's a drink at Boldly Going called The Arnold that's 10 shots of espresso, I've gotten that one a few times (I know I'm crazy) but for some reason it's not strong (though it does taste good). I tried a regular medium coffee with a shot of espresso at Coffee Corner, and it was just the pick up I needed. Their coffee is truly strong and full bodied, well balanced. They'll make your drink with whatever flavor you want; I usually go for vanilla. They're efficient and have your drink out fast. The family that runs the business are good people. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and try their best to make whatever drink you want. The inside of the business is small, but they have seating outside, and part of the charm is grabbing a drink and walking downtown. Also the name "Coffee Corner" suggests in itself that it's not going to be a large space, so there is zero false advertising. But if you need a seat, the outside tables are usually free. The last perk I will mention is the price. I've compared their prices to both Boldly Going and Bean Bros (not sure about Dakota). They're more affordable than both of those places. Sometimes you go out and spend nearly 10 bucks on a coffee, especially if you add espresso, but they charge about 50 cents for an extra shot here which is a great deal. Most places charge a dollar or a dollar fifty. They have run into some poor luck with the fire but I know Enterprise is rooting for them and sending prayers. This is a good family, and they deserve...
Read moreCoffee Corner,
I’ve always had a place in my heart for cozy coffee shops and a palate for delicious coffee. When this shop first opened (on the original corner) it was love at first sip! The owners and staff are a delight as well!
Like a phoenix from the ashes (quite literally), this wonderful little shop recently reopened in a larger space and the quality still remains the same - EXCELLENT! The decor and attention to detail of the shop makes you feel as if you have stepped into a cafe that has been there for many years with lots of cozy nooks and chairs to get comfortable and enjoy a coffee and snack - the iced latte with an extra shot and bacon/cheddar/jalapeño scone is a personal favorite.
It serves as a spot that is not only friendly for the entire family (awesome kids room!), but also fantastic for events as well! When I was planning a baby shower, I knew the tea room here would be a fabulous spot! The event was an absolutely outstanding experience! Planning, catering and communication with Jennie was so prompt, simple and efficient! Fast forward to day of, the hospitality to our guests and DELICIOUS catered treats offered by the shop made for a memorable and beautiful day for our dearest friends! I heard quite a few guests say “This is the best scone I’ve ever had!” or “These sandwiches are amazing!”...
Read moreCoffee Corner is, without a doubt, one of the highlights of Enterprise. Between the comforting atmosphere, incredibly welcoming staff, and phenomenal drinks, there just isn't a better place in the area to hang out.
This place is also the epitome of "shop local". Just about everything they have that can be locally sourced, is. Even the mugs are handmade locally (yeah, you can actually get your drink in a real mug here - nowhere does that anymore). They have incredibly strong standards for cleanliness, freshness, and quality, and every single one of the baristas here is highly skilled and extremely knowledgeable about what they do.
This isn't some Starbucks dupe like most coffee shops. This is a legit European-style cafe in a historic building in the heart of downtown. It's not huge, but the space is utilized well and there's plenty of room to sit and work at a table, read in one of the comfortable chairs, or chat with and meet new people. Give Coffee Corner a shot, it's worth the visit.
And try...
