Copper Cafe at the Madonna Inn

For our 30th SLO Coffee Crawl blog we went to the Madonna Inn coffee shop.   We wanted to go there  before Christmas to enjoy the amazing Christmas decorations that the Inn is famous for, but life got in the way. So here we are, celebrating the New Year, instead. We sat in one of the spacious,  yet intimate booths decorated with murals, carved wood, and a copper topped table. Sheila's regular black Apffel's brand coffee, which was $2.95, was rich and smooth.  Refills are free.  Sometimes restaurant coffee can be bitter, but this was surprisingly delicious.  Joan had a caramel latte which was $4.75.  She declared it one of the best lattes she's had on our many coffee outings.  (No sweetener needed!)  We suggest that you pair your coffee drink with one of their delicious Danish pastries.  Joan chose one to "take home to her husband, John."  We'll see if it makes it all the way there!  At the Madonna Inn, it's all about the ambience, from the cobblestone walkways to the stained glass windows, to the lavish decor, your eye never gets tired of discovering interesting things to look at.
