We ate breakfast at the lodge Saturday morning and immediately went in search of the best coffee in Sisters. We had a tip from a good friend that there was a fantastic coffee joint right off the "main drag" in town.
Well, we found what we were looking for right away. It was a place called Sisters Coffee Co. and it really did have some amazing coffee!
The owners started with what looks like a very tiny space that has since been torn down to make room for a huge coffee house. They now have a wonderful building with a cozy seating area with a nice crackling fire in a stone fireplace. There is a balcolny that overlooks the rest of the shop which has lots of game tables and several different games to pass the time while you enjoy your perfectly brewed americano.
If you'd rather sit outdoors and enjoy the clean, pure air that central Oregon has to offer, Sisters Coffee Co. has a lovely wrap-around porch and flagstone patio with plenty of seating for your enjoyment.
When you walk in and are disappointed by the long line because all you wanted was a regular cup of coffee, no worries! Instead of waiting, there is a bar to your left with at least 6 different blends of coffee waiting for you to serve yourself. "But what about payment?" you might ask. The ready-made coffee is all on the honor system! There is a jar, with a list of the prices that you deposit your cash into. Now tell me what could be better?
I hope that if you're ever in Sisters, or even just passing through, that you'll remember to turn off of the "main drag" and grab a cup of some truly fine coffee at the Sisters Coffee Co. Unfortunately, I was enjoying my americano so much that I only took one picture, and it's not that good. You'll just have to go and check the inside out for yourself!
Great post, Jessica. I don't know if you knew this, but I like coffee, too! :) The way you described this place brought me right back over the mountains and into the aroma and atmosphere of this place. Thanks!
