Simba Coffee Company in Ortonville is a hidden gem! It’s tucked away near Bueches, Hungry Howie’s, and Pet Supplies Plus, so it’s a little hard to spot from the road — but absolutely worth finding. The owner was incredibly friendly, greeting both myself and my son with a big smile and a warm “Good morning.” It was my first time visiting, and when I asked for a recommendation, he took the time to ask about my preferences. I told him I enjoy cold brew with a little sweet foam, so he crafted a caramel macchiato for me (I don’t recall the menu name) — and it was absolutely delicious!

Why not put them on a counter and leave them where they are? That alone would save you 10 seconds per drink, if you make 100 drinks a day that would save you 17 min. And that's just one of many simple changes they could make to streamline...
Read moreI stopped into this coffee shop while in the area for work and was blown away. I usually order an Americano, but the owner suggested I try one made with cold brew instead of water. It was incredibly smooth, rich in flavor, and had zero bitter aftertaste. He even added just the right amount of creamer.
On my way out, I picked up some beans, and he took the time to explain the best way to store them. Excellent coffee and outstanding customer service. I’ll definitely be back whenever I’m...
