I went in today to get birthday coffee/breakfast with my father, and was instantly greeted outside by Vic himself upon getting out of our cars, who stopped loading his car to give us his full attention. Neither of us have been there before, so his wife at the front counter was more than happy to explain how their paninis and breakfast sandwiches work. She also got me a birthday cannoli and wished me a happy birthday! I love the atmosphere in this shop with the artwork on the walls, tables, lighting, and color scheme. There was a barista who gladly helped my father fix his order because he forgot to mention he wanted no cream in his Americano, I forgot her name but I know it started with an A, who stopped me on our way out to wish me a good day and happy birthday! It was very sweet of her and everyone else there was very nice and polite. I will totally come here over another Starbucks or Biggby again. Thank you guys for giving me an...
Read moreWas driving through and this place looked amazing. Boy was I wrong. The coffee drink was horrible and the chocolate chip cookies were hard and crunchy. Not what I expected when I got them. Here is my biggest complaint. The cashier left when my son and I had walked in and then we had to wait for another worker. Cool. It took a few for our drinks, again cool, saw a few interactions between the workers and customers and when we went to leave my son said have a nice day and he was ignored.

He said I know they heard me why did they ignore me. Probably because he is a minority and not white like everyone in this coffee shop. Which makes me feel that this is why the first worker would not even help us because my done is a minority. Shame on all of...
Read moreWhenever I visit a new town, I love to scope out a local coffee shop and in Jackson, Vito’s Espresso is definitely the spot to have coffee. It's a welcoming space with a fun, casual atmosphere, a bar setting and lounge seating. There's an extensive menu with food such as paninis, clubs, wraps, quiche, muffins, cookies, cannoli and baklava, but my focus was all about the coffee.
In my repeat visits to Vito's, I tried their cappuccino, cold brew, nitro coffee from the tap, and the espresso by itself. Without making myself sound too much like a coffee fanatic, everything I tried had a nice balance of taste and texture. But more than anything, during the week that I spent visiting the area, I saw how Vito and his wife Lynn take a lot of pride in what they do. In addition to great coffee and food, it was a friendly experience, served up by a wonderful couple in pleasant...
