From our beloved regulars
First visit, and would definitely return! A wonderful welcoming and wholesome setting to relax, refresh and reflect. The Philly special was yummy and Brittany made us feel right at home. We love the worthy cause the Talking Donkey supports, and highly recommend giving your patronage to this location at every opportunity. P.S. Thank you Brittany for the sample of your coffee....DELICIOUS!!!!!
Just passing through and found this amazing coffee shop. The owner shared their mission and story and just like always I left feeling like God had put me in just the right spot ❤️. So thankful for businesses that support their local community in the fight for rehab and recovery. This is Christianity on display the way Jesus intended ❤️❤️. I’m sure HE would love the Turtle Frozen Coffee also! 🥰
We absolutely loved this place! The vibe, the Christian music playing, we had a great lunch. We will be back today.
What a lovely place! We stopped in while visiting family, and I’m so happy to see this place is here. We got an iced latte and a pinkity drinkity. So delightful! Happy almost one-year anniversary!
I had a brown sugar cinnamon oat milk latte! It was delicious. I also had a s’mores cookie and it was to die for. It was so rich and delicious. It reminded me of summer.
Great black coffee early in the day. Made a fresh sausage egg and cheese croissant that was good. Very peaceful atmosphere. 10/10
My dad recently moved here so we were looking for a new coffee shop to try and so happy to stumble upon this one! My husband and I both got good brews with the sweet foam on top and they were delicious! Staff was super friendly and the shop overall was very cute. Will definitely be back everytime we visit!
I always get an iced Americano with 2 add shots. They are always friendly, play inspirational music, and have never made the drinks wrong for my family. Nice big foyer for the kids to crawl around too. Thanks ladies!
This is a faith based business where folks who are recovering can work. Food was good. Service was exceptional. Love the faith based music.
Twice in one day. One hot, one ice. Highly recommend. In town for a few days, will probably stop in again. I did stop in several more times that week. I tried two other local coffee shops. One I would go again, had ice cream and boba drinks available. (this is not a suggestion for the Talking Donkey, it's great as is). The other one, I will not return, I left a review for them.
