Zummo's Café


Zummo’s Café is a perfect location for a meet and greet chitchat with friends, or as a solo visit to escape from the world. Not only is the atmosphere relaxed (indoors or out), but just the smell of Zummo’s freshly brewed coffee will brighten your day. Fortunately Jessica and I are only a short bike ride to Zummo’s, convenient for an instant craving fix.

Zummo’s buys their coffee from Electric City Roasting, which stands on their fair trade principles. Most of the coffee is from Costa Rica and Guatemala, and yes, the coffee sold to Electric City Roasting is sold directly from the farmer. So, yeah sure, the coffee is pure. Yeah sure, the coffee is FAIR TRADE. Yeah sure, the coffee is absolutely without a doubt smooth and DELICIOUS.

On this particular visit, Jessica enjoyed a classic iced coffee with a nice slice of chocolate cake, while I chomped away on a mixed berry scone and a biscotti cookie. The baked goods at Zummo’s are made on site, and are outstanding! Fresh tasting treats, nice sip of coffee, great atmosphere…sounds like a dreamy Saturday morning to me.

Now, Zummo’s is currently looking for a part-time pastry chef (as advertised by a sign on their front door). This my friends, makes it extremely tempting for me to drop out of school, and bake…all-day-long. Realistically speaking, all I really want to know is how those scones are just so fluffy…
