If you ever find yourself in OKC, make your way to Edmond, OK where a neighborhood coffee bar awaits you! I absolutely love visiting Vintage Timeless Coffee. First of all, the coffee and pastries are wonderful! Secondly, the staff is engaging, friendly and inviting! Most of all, the place is spot on when it comes to a neighborhood coffee joint! You walk in and find a long bar with stools for a more bar feel. There are small niches that have the sofa, chairs and small side tables for the coffee house atmosphere. There's also table and chairs to accompany business people, small group of friends, or someone like me who wants to spread out my books and magazines to read. I was excited to see Vintage Timeless Coffee on Groupon, offering customers the chance to save some money and enjoy great coffee. I ordered a Cinnamon Knot Latte along with a Blueberry scone, which they offered to warm up for me. The list of flavors goes on and on...can't possibly be disappointed by a lack of variety at this place. I grabbed my plate with my warm scone as well as my piping hot latte and sat in one of the comfortable chairs toward the back....of course, stopping at the pastry counter to look at all the delicious muffins and pastries they have delivered daily from OKC's famous Brown's Bakery. I set my things down and returned to the front of the counter where shelves hold an array of magazines (love this idea). I grabbed several and made my way back to my chosen spot. I could hear warm hello's from behind the counter with each new customer that walked in. Those customers sitting at the bar carried on conversations with employees. A friendly place, indeed! My scone was soft, blueberry heaven...certainly not your typical crumbley, hard scone (which I enjoy, too). The strips of frosting gave a sweet sensation that made me forget for a moment that I was devouring a scone. My coffee was full of cinnamon, perfectly sweetened, and I did not want the experience to end. I glanced beside me and smiled at the vintage piano along the back wall which, I'm quite certain, held many musical memories. But, I really enjoyed the comic strips by Dave Miller that adorned the walls all around the shop. I had to chuckle at the several I read, and thought this a genius touch. One certainly can't leave Vintage Timeless Coffee in a grumpy mood. If the staff and the great treats can't lift your spirits, then the comedy will! In addition, Vintage Timeless Coffee offers a reward card, which after buying a certain number of coffees, you get one free. Just an added bonus for the customer. Don't have time to experience the atmosphere, but you want to try the coffee. Don't fret, a drive-thru awaits you...along with the same warm greeting you would get if you walked through the front door. Vintage Timeless Coffee, you got it right!
