Coffee Barn — Restaurant in Hannibal

Just moved back to my hometown area from Kansas City. Was fully prepared to say goodbye to coffee as I'm used to high end niche coffee and tea houses. To my surprise the Coffee Barn saved the day! I can no longer have high amounts of caffeine without getting seriously ill ☹️, so was looking for a good decaf, which is difficult bc decaf doesn't always taste great and can upset tummies. I was surprised to find they had decaf espresso, cold brew, and drip that has been great in several drink types. This place has become "my place" and I'm happy to support a small locally owned business! I recommend iced decaf vanilla cold brew with cold foam on top for summer drink. ☀️

PROS: -service is quick & efficient especially when the owners are there, the girls are nice -conveniently located -clean -no speaker system but good work around with workers coming outside (prefer this anyway) -the good ice, if you know...you know. -if you want caffeine you'll get it here, impressed to find their caffeine milligrams posted as it is a significant amount.

FEEDBACK: -bring back decaf espresso -later hours, experienced more waiting & incorrect orders due to girls being girls (chatting , on phones, dancing etc) It's sweet and harmless but let's listen and get orders out. -If decaf is ordered, SUPER important to give decaf. Been given caffeinated drinks and gotten very ill from it. I always triple check now.

I could totally see this place having a larger outdoor area with string lights, fire pit, etc. With washers, bocce ball, and corn hole to rent. Look up Chicken n Pickle KC 😉. Just saying...

Congrats on a...

When I first pulled up to the place, I didn't know what to expect since it looked like a half-built storage container that some hipster tried to turn into a restaurant. The place is so close to the road that I was afraid I'd get side swiped while standing at the counter. The inside was extremely small. One errant fart would have displaced all the oxygen in the building. I ordered my drink and got it pretty quickly, which I thought was a good omen of what I was about to experience. Oh, how wrong I was. This devilish concoction tasted like a garbage can full of sugar. They must make the coffee part out of elf wishes and unicorn semen because all I could taste was white chocolate. Perhaps THAT was the unicorn semen. I don't know. I've never done it with a unicorn. In summary, if you're waiting for your diabetic uncle to die so you can gain his inheritance, just buy him literally anything from here and it'll be yours in...

I ordered a brown sugar latte from the menu, and they rang me up for a brown sugar cinnamon latte. There was no "cinnamon" on the menu. She said the name when she handed it to me, and it took a moment to register what she said. My boyfriend had already started driving away, so we had to go back through the drive thru. We went back through right away, so there were no cars that went through between our two trips through the drive thru. She didn't recognize that we were literally just there and tried to charge me again. Sorting things out was frustrating, and it turns out there is no regular brown sugar latte without cinnamon.

Cinnamon seems to be a common allergy, so you should consider putting it in the name...
