Cozy and cute, this affordable little coffee spot has never disappointed. The drinks are delicious and affordable. I had one of the best cheese danishes I’ve ever had here, and I highly suggest the “Bonita’s Revenge” or “Castle Street Caramel” for a nice coffee treat.

Always a great experience. Coffee and light lunches are made fresh to order. Donuts rotate weekly new flavors. Owners and staff are friendly every visit. Plenty of space for work, board games, and an extra quiet room.
There’s a board where you can buy and pass a coffee for those in need. And they do grilled cheeses for those that are hungry. Overall, great owners and great for the community.

Worked over the summer in the area. Found Empire then. So happy to come back. The coffee is amazing, the food is yummy, and the service is wonderful.
I was working remotely, spending a few hours there. It was comfortable, with great wi-fi. Fueled on caffeine, I got a LOT done. Thanks so much!!

What a chill place to have a cuppa coffee and a donut. We passed through from out of town and stopped for a coffee and a chai. We were greeted by two cheerful women who took our order. We noticed vegan donuts in the case, so we got 6.
The coffee was outstanding; not burnt like that big chain from Seattle, and not drab like some other chains. Tasty! My wife had a chai latte, and it was great. The vegan donuts were awesome!
The place had a cool vibe, giving a mild “Friends” feeling. Tables and chairs, several board games, and a lot of local art and fliers about things going on about town.
Highly recommend this place. (We bought a cool tshirt too!)

What a gem!!!! Visiting from out of town for Ironman and popped in for morning coffee. Associates were very welcoming, kind and patient (as I couldn’t decide on what donut to order). My French vanilla hot latte felt like it was made with the love– delicious! My husband loved that they make coffee ice cubes for the iced latte– he hates when ice waters down his drink. They support local artists (snagged some swag). We would certainly be regulars if we lived in town– it’s the kind of place you want to hang out at all day! They have puzzles, board games, couches for lounging and traditional seating in case you needed to get some work done. Bravo! Love supporting small businesses that sprinkle delight ☀️ into your everyday!

Stopped in to try their coffee, but decided to the soup and sandwich sounded too good to pass up. The soup was a mildly spicy roasted red pepper which was very good. The sandwich was a pulled pork and coleslaw wrap. Both were very tasty, however the coleslaw was very runny. Over a teaspoon of liquid poured out half of my wrap. With the switch to lunch, we forgot to order any coffee, so we can’t comment on that. A great coffee smell inside the shop though. Still no donuts yet.

Was visiting from out of town for the eclipse and was in dire need of wonderful hospitality and great food/coffee. This place wonderfully succeeded and fulfilled that need. Not only were the owners incredibly sweet, but their coffee was delectable.
Not included in the photo was a cinnamon roll donut crossover, a sweetly delicious caramel coffee, and a handsomely sized flavor filled breakfast burrito.
If you’re in the mood for coffee, sweets, or savory you need to stop here and stay for the extensive amount of board games offered. Wish I could pick this place up and bring it back home!
