Coffee roasters?
Does anyone know of a place to buy locally roasted coffees, besides Boston Stoker? I like them, but they are a little pricey. Are there any other options?

my favorite place is in yellow springs, it's called brother bears and their coffee is divine. I love snickerdoodle, I have a bag in my fridge! ;-)
Welcome to Brother Bear's Coffee Cafe | Yellow Springs, OH
Also, maybe Winan's?
I think you're going to find that they're all closely priced to what you'd find at Boston Stoker |

It's not so much the absolute price, but more that I don't know how fresh the coffee is for that price.
I'll definitely check out Brother Bear's. Thanks for the tip!

We were less-than-impressed with Wynan's. But, then again, some can't stand Starbuck's but we like it...

Try the Canterbury coffee house and gift shop in downtown Bellefontaine. Really old coffee roaster on premises (the machine, not the owner), great ambience, friendly people and only a block away from the very first paved street in America, right beside the court house which is a lovely Victorian edifice. Great little town, occasional traffic backup on Rte. 68 south of downtown, but the city is well worth the visit. Here's a freebie for you-----if you go up Rte 68 to get there, stop at "Maries Candies" in West Liberty. Quite possibly the best chocolate in the whole world!! |

The Bellefontaine area would be a good road trip from Dayton as the Piatt Castles are nearby, plus take a spin around the hill country in the vicinity of Zanesfield before ending up in Bellefontaine.
I think West Liberty has some sort of craft shop/antique thing going on, too?
