    Amazing hidden spot in this beautiful small town. If you’re passing through and you have a little time you must stop in! It’s right off the interstate and it’s so worth the trip. Great coffee and beautiful restored building. It was the old high school which had a lot of memories for me!

    The sign out on I-70 drew us in to this delightful coffee shop while we were traveling on our motorcycles... We were greeted and served by sweet Arabella, who shared the building history with us. The building was the former town school. Coffee was wonderful as were the freshly baked cookies! Will definitely stop back again. ☕☕☕💜💜💜

    Grew up here and had go come through here the other day with my sister in laws. Must say I was very impressed!! So much improvement and wonderful hospitality, let's not forget this coffee you can't get at any Starbucks. So much flavor and was on point with exactly what I wanted. I love this community, love my home town, and will always try and stop by to support this beautiful little town coming back to life!😊♥️

    So this is a really darling place (beware, they're closed Saturdays. ) Fabulous coffee and delicious frozen yogurt treats in the same place with a beautiful atmosphere that invites you to stay and play board games (provided.) Highly recommend if you're traveling across Missouri and could use a stop. It's a mile or two off the highway in downtown Sweet Springs. Warning: the frozen yogurt is by weight, so if you get carried away fixing your treat it could be expensive. I recommend the Old School latte, their own house recipe, which is toasty, comforting and delicious. It's worth the stop!

    Stopped in for a pit stop on my way to KC after seeing a sign on the highway and was totally flabbergasted to find this gem literally in the middle of nowhere! Since they have frozen custard I got an Affogato and chatted it up with my barista, Arabella. Totally impressed!

    Neat use for an old school. It’s not far off the interstate and worth the stop. Plenty of coffee options and a neat place to sit and sip if you have the time. I ordered the cold brew (their version). It was quite tasty. Service was quick and kind. Will stop again!

    Very clean, lots of seating, close to Highway, they roast the beans right behind the shop, they have frozen yogurt, and a restaurant. However, the restaurant is closed. I’m guessing for covid/staff reasons. There’s also a hotel above the place. Good service and we both got a latte.

    The barista was very welcoming and helped me decide when I came in for my first visit, I loved how it was open more than most coffee shops and the coffee was of course great. I would love to come back at some point when I'm passing by again

    What a gem of a find. We happened upon this cafe traveling west from St. Louis on our youth mission trip. Totally worth the quick detour. We found out that Old School is part of a mission effort and also connected with the group that manages some Christian bands. People were incredibly helpful and friendly. Also, coffee was excellent. We will be back!

    This place is a hidden gem. The coffee I had twice now was very good! Every time I drive through Missouri I try and stop here now. Honestly if I didn’t see the billboard I would’ve never known is this place. Definitely looking forward to next time though! Wish the spot was a little smaller for the size they do. The big open lobby just kind of made it feel like a ghost town even more.

    I cannot say enough good things about this place!! My husband and I LOVE stopping by here on road trips. It’s right off the highway and a really easy stop. The cinnamon rolls are freshly milled and remind me of my momma’s homemade bread. They put Bible verses on your cup and my heart needed to read exactly the specific scripture they put on my cup. Thank you Jesus for this sweet, sweet Coffee Shop.

    Happened to swing in while passing through. The lattes were perfect, the muffins were freshly made that morning with the most delicious ingredients, and Sarah made us all feel right at home with her excellent service. Our daughter, Eleanor, loved playing with Sarah and checking out all the plants and pictures. There was a collection of fun puzzles and board games too. This isn't your ordinary coffee shop, it's a slice of Heaven.

    What a cool place! We were traveling through and saw a sign on the highway and decided to make the trip into town. The coffee drinks were fantastic, and the service was great. Definitely give this place a try if your coming through.
