I’m hearing Ace Hardware is already going out of business. Any skinny? Also, the new coffee hut in that parking lot causing traffic back ups. What’s so special about a coffee kiosk there?
Starkville people…..

Folks in Flowood are crazy about 7 Brew, that place prints money, I don't understand it.
Everyone I know thought the Starkville location was terrible.

I'm not surprised. I like it but there is never anyone in there. The coffee thing will slow .... new kid in town. But it has made traffic a mess at times
7 Brew is decent and it’s cheaper than most any other coffee shop. Strangebrew is still king in Starkville. Their location really limits them though.
Seven Brew doesn’t even make coffee. I went there and asked them for a regular coffee and they had no idea what to do. You have to get some sort of fru fru drink.
Also, everyone who works there has the personality of the pieces of flair guy from Office Space. Welcome to Chotchkies!
Seven brew is up there with the most annoying places you could ever visit. I will never be back.

I can slip in and out of a QT with a bad arse coffee in 2 mins. For people to wait inline for 35 mins is assign
It’s outstanding for my family. Of course we don’t live in Starkville so haven’t been there. The cup sizes put Starbucks and other specialty drive throughs to shame.
Never heard of 7 Brew, looked it up and there's one here in my city...who knew.
7 Brew won't even get a coffee bowel movement started it's such watered down trash. The pink haired freaks I'm sure love 95% sugar and 5% instant coffee but I need real coffee. That little horse trailer off 82 has better coffee

I almost hate to post this, but I work at a high school with several 20 something teachers. It's sad but none of them is normal sized. Every morning, however, every single one of them walks in with a 700 calorie Dunkin fru fru coffee. It has to be a big contributing factor. Those drinks are horrible for you.

It's nothing but sugar and caffeine addiction.
I finally got myself mostly weened off of both. It's incredible how bad you feel for a few days when you decide to clean that **** out of your system.
And how clear your head is after.
So your not a bulldog football season ticket holder?
That is NOT true. I got a coffee there 30 minutes ago. Black.
Got a pretty good milkshake and a blackberry lemon smoothie from there last week that were good. I'm not a coffee person so no version of it creams my taters. Well...my daughter got it while she was there ordering her something. I don't have the patience to sit in line that long.
I have concluded through the years that the only sure bet when it comes to a successful restaurant in Starkville is Mexican or Wendy's.
If they aren't they should. I've been in there twice since they opened and it was the same experience. At least 3 or 4 people standing around the front checkout/desk area. When I walked in they didn't even look my way, didn't speak, didn't ask if they could help, nothing. I walked around for awhile looking and never got a peep out of any of them. I walked out both times without what I went in for and the whole time they were all standing in the same place yucking it up about something.
I don't know why they haven't moved. Their busiest time of the day should be between 7-8 in the morning and you can't turn left to get into it because of Lynn Spruill's damn medians and if you try and turn left onto Spring St and go in their back entrance across from Chic Fil A there's a long line of people trying to get to campus and you can't turn left into the Strange Brew parking lot.
QT is solid. I've recently discovered them but they are my choice for coffee when I'm on the road if one is available.
We think alike, I change my routine up though regularly depending on the mood. I've got an automatic Cuisinart maker w/ thermal carafe, a Keurig w/ stainless steel pods that I make my own pods with, and an old aluminum pour over pot from Wear-Ever. The best tasting coffee comes from the old Wear-Ever pot that I have to heat water for first and then pour over with coffee ground in this 1957 grinder that was my grandmother's, both work even when the electricity is off (gas stove). This is one like it:

Mississippi is not cool enough for Dutch Bros apparently
Why is that? Publix won't go there, and a lot of other big chains

hell, it's 90+% sugar addiction. Most people who go to starbucks and the like don't actually like coffee. They like the idea of "coffee" and really enjoy a coffee flavored milkshake every morning.
Starbucks figured this out very early and capitalized on it. It's why if you order a straight black coffee from there that it tastes burnt. They purposely overroast beans for consistency because it's easier to overroast at scale and they know the overwhelming majority of their orders include milk and sugar loaded up in it to dilute the burnt taste.
No, why would I drive multiple hours for pain and suffering when I could do it in the ACSo your not a bulldog football season ticket holder?
There aren't any Publix's west of Alabama. It's a regional chain. Don't appear to be any Dutch Bros east of Texas.
Not just a Mississippi thing.
