This past weekend I stumbled upon a new coffee shop out in the Ashland / Mechanicsville area in the Kings Charter shopping center. The name of the coffee shop is Sleeping Bear Coffee and is very, very unique. When I first walked in I was a little perplexed as what I seemed to be standing in was part convenience store, part drug store, part gift store and pharmacy all rolled into one. The store is a great modern take on a general store and I immediately felt at home. When I looked right I saw the sign for the coffee shop as was greeted by two smiling employees of whose names I should have written down as they were very helpful! The coffee shop is very comfortable with leather chairs and of course multiple bears, including one that is a ottoman! So this is what I learned about Sleep Bear Coffee! It’s actually all those stores rolled into one plus they have a lounge setup for Mom’s Groups, Bible Studies and get this Video Gaming Tournaments! The lounge has an XBox 360 and Wii, who would have known that such a combination exists! I can’t wait to go back and have some Lamplighter Roasting Company Coffee and Daylight Donuts!
