The Purest Coffee

I'm loving the fact that they serve Kaldi's coffee here! Not only does it taste great, their coffee presentation is also cute! This is what my order of cappuccino looked like! Update: Today I tried their Turkish coffee. It tastes great, and as always, their presentation was beautiful! Adding a photo of Turkish coffee.

I love the Purest Coffee, especially on the buffet day! The Chai tea is amazing, but the buffet is even better. The marsala and samosas are my absolute favorite thing. The buffet day has literally become a part of my Saturday ritual. So good!! Plus, the owner and his family are so kind and friendly. I love that they offer you new things to try. They got me addicted to those grape leaves, too. I will really miss this place when I move!

"UNDER NEW MANGEMENT." Unfortunately, that means even though their sign reads "Open - 12:00 Noon," (guess they don't comprehend the need for caffeine any earlier in the day) when I showed up at 12:45 seeing the new owner just then unlocking the front door, she informed me: "It will be another half hour before the espresso machine is warmed up." I loved The Coffee Mine, which was a tad away from the beaten path in Rolla, but was a great coffee shop with a huge variety. Sadly, now the only local option is funding corporate - which, as always, results in receiving the typical greed-based, overpriced, inferior product. "Next stop - Starbucks." ☹

The staff was very friendly, helpful, and good at communicating. There is a lot of very nice seating, and even what looked like a couch/lounge area further back. Could be a great place for eating with friends. I had the beef kabob combo, which turned out to be a very delicious beef strip in a delicious tortilla. I added lettuce, red cabbage, and cucumber pickles, which were also delicious. It was suprisingly filling. It also came with a wide selection of chips and drink. I was very impressed and would recommend this to most anyone. Worth the money.
