steep and brew West is a nice coffee shop.

The staff is very friendly and the service prompt. Product assortment is good… And the pastries are delicious. (Madison sourdough? )

I had a redeye (espresso shot with House, coffee)… Very tasty. And Keith had chai tea… He said it was good. I like the fact that patrons are allowed a cup that they can refill at their convenience from the large crafts that are kept full of four different coffee flavors.

The inside of the shop is small… But importantly, the small makes it feel cozy, more than crowded, and the space is warm and inviting. Many small tables… And even some very comfortable high back chairs that are upholstered, which invite people to sit and chat or read a book… Most excellent. They also have a heater that is a faux fire… Artificial, but still interestingly, comforting and lovely.

parking is easy as it is at the market Square shopping center.

prices are very reasonable… The only weird thing that I encountered was the fact that if a patron wants to add a tip to their bill, they actually need to tell the cashier server what the tip amount is before the bill is calculated. This is really weird, and I don’t like the fact that I think it limits or constrains how customers, give tips to the to the service staff. I hope their management realizes this is unfair to the staff… It is a complexity that is somewhat uncomfortable to customers as well.
