MOJO Coffee Roasting Co. & Cafe — Restaurant in Winslow

When my wife and I travel, we like to search out and support local businesses instead of national chains. We have found some gems over the years - and that happened again during our last road trip - finding Mojo Coffee Company to be the perfect combination of quality, customer service and local representation.

We first visited on the way to our destination. Owner Jack Jue handcrafted our coffees - and they were great - rivaling other local shops we have discovered and easily better than the national chains.

When passing again through Winslow on our way home, we called ahead to see if we could order by phone since we thought that Mojo was close to closing. However, when we called we found that they had already closed 20 minutes before.

HOWEVER - Jack offered to make our drinks anyway - even though he had already closed! The quality of our coffees was once again wonderful - but this time Jack’s customer service and kindness were what we walked away talking about.

If you live in the Winslow area or are just passing through as we did, please stop by Mojo and give them...

And what should appear 2mins later? A sign for MOJO Coffee Roasting!

The friendly owner also told us about 'The Corner' and it's significance in the Eagles song Take It Easy. Something we'd have totally missed otherwise. One of the nicest and friendliest stops we made along the...

Quaint place with good coffee and breakfast items. Doubles as an ice cream parlor and smoothie shop for the after morning coffee types. Free wifi wasn't working but that appears to be a known issue that is internet provider related (not sure how that will be resolved or when) but cell service at this location is good, and I didn't come to watch a movie. It is a mom and pop place with a cozy eclectic look and feel, with good service built for quality over speed. If you need strong coffee Starbucks factory-line fast, I'd suggest finding that Starbucks. I got behind a 5 smoothie cum latte or something order and waited 5 minutes before it was my turn. But I was passing through on my way to California and looking to stretch the legs a bit anyway. It was just my speed but if you're in overdrive it may...
