New Coffee Shop in De Soto Texas

Marc and I had heard that there was a new coffee shop in the next town but we hadn’t seen it. We prefer to shop/run errands there rather than our town for a variety of reasons. Anyway, they have worked hard to create a town center that would be the go to area in town and they have achieved it beautifully. It is called the Blue Cow. I have NO pictures because I went without my camera but I promise to remedy that tomorrow.

What I liked:
- First of all it is situated in the lobby of the library. I love that as you know. I think it is brilliant.
- The decor is great.
- Seating is comfortable.
- They serve a variety of luncheon and snack items that seem unique.
- The coffee is good. Not perfect. Not great. But as good or better than Starbucks.
- The barista is helpful and friendly.
- Nice selection of drinks.
- You can bring your own cup and they will keep it for you. I LOVE that idea.
What I didn’t like:
- No ceramic cups available unless you have your own.
- Non-dairy creamer displayed on counter, I think you can probably get half and half but you would need to ask.
- Too hard to find. There is no way to really know it is there unless you are going to the library.
I got a caramel macchiato and Marc got something called a John Wayne. He had no choice in the matter, I ordered it for him. :/ It was good. I can’t remember what was in it though. The most unique item I saw was a Dr. Pepper Chocolate Chip cookie, which I will try to replicate on Baking Delights soon. Anyway, I am going to do a real review tomorrow..If you are in the Duncanville, De Soto, Cedar Hill, Lancaster area (Texas) you should give this a try!

This reminds me of the coffee shop outside my local library, except for the keeping your own cup there idea. That does seem kind of neat.
Isnt that cool?
I said long ago that I thought there should be coffee shops in libraries…..
Yep…it is a great idea..I am just about to post some pictures of it.
