What a unique, upstate coffee shop gem! I tried this coffee shop over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised by their unique seasonal offerings, as well as the friendly and personable staff. You don’t often see unique seasonal coffee drinks, especially such a variety of options. As someone who enjoys a carefully curated beverage this was right up my alley! ☕️I tried the pumpkin s’mores and it was quite the Fall creation! Not only was the drink delectable but the attention to garnish toppers was top notch! It was topped with a toasted marshmallow, toasted to order and crumbles of graham crackers. The owners were also very friendly and seemed to make every guest feel right at home. I also really enjoyed sitting at their tables outside surrounded by their pumpkin storefront. If you’re ever in the vicinity of this coffee shop I highly recommend adding it to your itinerary, I was certainly glad it was on mine!

If you find yourself passing through, Second Wind Coffee is an absolute essential stop for both the atmosphere and the fuel. This shop perfectly captures a “modern vintage” soul that makes you want to stay a while.

Glad I stopped in! Definitely a great place. If it wasn’t so far from where I live I’d be a regular. Fast and friendly service with nice decor. Tons of flavors with lots of seasonal options and a great regular menu. This coffee shop is highly recommended.

❗️warning: DONT EVER ASK FOR HAM❗️
I’ve given this place far more chances than it deserved because, unfortunately, the food is decent for the area. But the customer service is consistently awful, and today was the final straw. Every visit, the owners are rude and miserable—not just to me, but to others. The only nice one is the grandmother, who is lovely. She and the decor of the place are the only redeeming features.
Today, I spent $43, mistakenly thought they had ham, and politely asked if it could be added. I apologized immediately when I realized my mistake. Yet they snapped at me—twice. It became an unnecessary scene over nothing. Snapping at a paying customer? Come on. Absolutely ridiculous and uncalled for when I said I was sorry and would pay for it. It was a misunderstanding.
Also, they keep a specialty drink menu out with items they no longer offer. If half of your drinks are unavailable, use common sense—update or remove the menu. Don’t be rude when people try to order from it.
I’ve been polite and supportive as a regular, spending my hard-earned money. Good food does not excuse bad behavior. If you can’t deal with customers, maybe don’t run a café. I won’t be back, and I don’t recommend it to anyone expecting basic courtesy.

Coffee was pretty good. The atmosphere is the star of the show. It is incredibly and thoughtfully decorated with many unique items. There is a nice spot to sit almost everywhere and if your anything like me you’ll have a great time just walking around looking at all the cool stuff! Highly recommend checking this place out.

Great coffee, specialty drinks, and casual food in a uniquely cool atmosphere. Huge Chesterfield couches, comfy hidden chairs, and casual tables surround vintage motorcycles, special wall art, and black-iron style fixtures. It’s great place to sit alone or visit with friends.
