Opened September 1, 2016 by Sara L. & her awesome boyfriend (myself, of course) this homegrown South Milwaukee staple has crystalized into a genuine destination location. If your plane is just touching down at General Mitchell, we show up before Starbucks even though there is only one Avenue Coffee, and our only one-star reviews are from hill billies that would rather see us fail than thrive.
