If every coffee house in the world were to catch fire simultaneously, I would be in the bucket brigade outside of Darkhorse! I absolutely love this place!

The coffee here is fantastic! However, this isn’t a spot to relax and chat with friends over coffee; it’s more of a grab-and-go place. Service rating: 4/5.

My favorite normal heights coffee shop. All their drinks are always made with care. Recommend their cold brew or iced salted maple.
