Mocha Mutt has a very kind friend who recently provided an excellent referral for a Triad Coffee Shop. Although coffee is not in the shop's name, it is definitely on the menu, and is the perfect accompaniment to the fantastic baked goods available - donuts, donut holes, bear claws, fritters, croissants, and other pastries. Mocha Mutt and Coffee Cat hit the road to Thomasville, North Carolina, and it was well worth the trip! Granny's Donuts and Sandwiches is a whirlwind of activity on both sides of the counter. Trays of donuts move quickly from the cooling trays to the hands of customers who stand in line for the delicacies. The line is sometimes long, but it is a noisy, joyful line of happy, friendly folks who know they are in for a sweet treat and a quick visit with friends, neighbors, and strangers who have a common goal - - a box of baked delights.
Like many other coffee shops, Granny's has free wi-fi and a great variety of iced and hot coffees, teas, and fruit-based drinks. After we "wolfed" down our donuts, we enjoyed hot tea and lattes and watching lots of customers come and go.
Lessons learned for coffee shop fans: break out of your normal routine and travel outside your hometown for a special treat, and when you find a local coffee shop with great drinks and food, tell your friends and neighbors about it so they can enjoy it, too!
