5th Elm Coffee House - Hancock

I visited when they were still open in 2019. The review may be late, but hopefully still helpful. Is there a Tubie in your family? If so, this review is for you. As much as I like quiche, it's the Walnut burger that I choose time and time again. I'm a health nut. The only place in town that I've visited that can make the kind of food I can eat. I'm a Tubie. All the food I eat must be blended to the consistency of a thin shake. This cafe has a high speed blender to whip that burger into a Walnut stew. I bring my blender bottles in, they fill them up, and I'm good to go.

Literally have an outdoor “walk up” window in 5 degree weather. No thanks.

First time going to 5th and Elm and definitely my last. As soon as i walked upto the outdoor ordering window the barista slammed the window shut, that should have been my first sign to just walk away and go elsewhere. I ordered a large caramel macchiato and they delivered in in under a minute, should have been another sign that i was not going to enjoy my coffee. needless to say it was cold, the side of the cup was covered in caramel and the coffee tasted like absolute garbage.

#1 coffee shop anytime I go to Houghton. They make the fraps/caps/ lattes with freshly pulled shots. Best breakfast bagel sammies in town! I highly recommend 2 egg, bacon, smoked gouda, peanut butter on a blueberry bagel. Sauteed onion/gp if you're adventurous. they might still be outside order but has a great view of the canal.

Great coffee house! We walked up to the counter outside of the cafe and ordered 2 bagels, a regular coffee with cream, and a mocha. The mocha could have been hotter, but the temperature was fine. Bagel was warm and pretty yummy. You put on your own cream cheese with a little stick that's compostable which is very cool, though the portion cup isn't. I'd visit again if I'm back in the area.
