My friends and I had dinner nearby and weren't just ready to go home yet. The trusty Yelp app said Slowpokes was literally right around the corner from where we were. Since we were all parked already, we just walked right on over. This Kirby Grove location is not their first location, but it is the first location that I visited. This location is located in what looks like an office building that has restaurants and shops on the ground level. Walking in I immediately thought this place looked like a coffee shop on steroids. It was huge! The coffee counter was right there when you walked in. Right behind it was a bar set up for all your beer and wine needs. There was also an ample amount of seating inside and outside and a beautiful park directly across as well. Customer service was great, especially for someone like me that never knows what they want.
The menu here is pretty huge. You have quite a few options to choose from between the food and drink menu. The food menu consists of breakfast options (served all day), flatbreads, sandwiches, salads and shareable items. They use food options from other local spots as well. Great community atmosphere here. The drink menu consists of wine of all varieties, local beers, mocktails, refreshers and all kinds of coffee and tea options. I was here for coffee and coffee only, so I focused on that section this trip. Right away, the Reeses Latte stood out to me. I am a sucker for Reeses peanut butter cups so I had to try it. What I like about this place is that they roast all their own coffee and you can taste the high quality ingredients they use. My latte was delicious. It wasn't overly sweet, but the peanut butter and mocha flavors were definitely there. I savored every sip.
If there were a Slowpokes in my part of town, I would be there all the time. This place had great vibes and I loved what I ordered. Can't wait till my next Slowpokes visit!
