"My day started off right. Conveniently located, this little coffee stand packs a big punch. Grabbed a couple of lattes and a coffee cake this morning a mile down the road from our lodge. I generally like a sweeter latte, but when it's high-quality beans and ingredients, combined with solid espresso-making skills, it needs nothing but a peaceful place to sip. KS Coffee was just that-delicious! And the coffee cake set my taste buds afire. Great coffee, good noshing, kind people: the best of VT!"

"I am a coffee snob. And pastry snob too. Both are wonderful here! Great, balanced third wave coffee, and delicious pastries — both reasonably priced. Pumpkin bread is mom approved and 3 year old approved :)"

"I have been a fan of KS coffee since they started and I always buy their beans whenever I find them. The coffees have very distinct and complex flavor profiles, some almost tea-like, that are a pleasure to drink no matter the style I’ve used to prepare them. I’m now super excited to be able to stop by and have a cappuccino too!"

"Absolutely delightful little coffee shop perfectly en route to many destinations in Vermont. We loved it so much we came back the very next day! Has the desired taste of a “third wave coffee shop” with the addition of any “special drink” options you could desire! The service was also above and beyond—they offered a little juice cup of my cider to my toddler who wanted to join us with our “coffee drink.” Thank you, KS Coffee!"

"Outstanding. This Vermont gem is one of those incredible finds. Ive dropped by on the way to the mountains several times and KS Coffee is now a "must stop". Karen's coffee - quality, flavor and selection are exceptional. Ask Karen about her sourcing and roasting process and you'll appreciate her approach. And the whole beans are fantastic. Don't miss the maple latte!"

"Exceptional coffee from exceptional people! We have a regular pilgrimage from Waterbury to see Karen, have a coffee and buy some beans. And a must-stop every time I'm skiing the Glen."
