Energy Coffee & Fitness Shop

Energy Coffee was lovely. Alas, it’s been closed for a couple years now. So if you go to this location, don’t expect to find it. Le sigh.

The coffee in the name and on the menu is fine and dandy, but the real treats here are the healthy snacks, juices, and smoothies. I got a great tip from the woman behind the counter on her favorite off-​the-​menu blend for a smoothie. Always pays to ask the staff for their favorites…
It’s very bright and cheery in the store, and if the copious amounts of exercise related stuff on the bulletin board doesn’t make you want to do something about getting in shape… then probably nothing will.

Get pumped from Energy Coffee!
I was a bit hesitant to try this place in fear of them adding extra carotenobioemulsified energy boost (and I’m a chemistry major) to the already overly caffeinated coffee and sometimes sugary coffee drinks people normally buy. I mean seriously, are we that sleep deprived and over worked that we need to stop at a place called «ENERGY COFFEE» for more than our normal dose of a pick-​me-​up?!
But I passed it on my home from the gym and something told me to turn my wheel into the parking lot to try force (maybe they mean cosmic energy?) turned my wheel into the parking lot.
I stepped in to find that they were cleaning up the coffee bar and closing (it was only 7pm!). Note taken, they close early. Although, she was nice enough to make me a double shot espresso soy latte to-​go — without any extra vitamins or protein. It wasn’t the best or the freshest coffee, but whatever, it did the trick.
The place was bright and white all over. It was a mix of a sunny California health bar meats trendy Ikea inspired caf.
Added amenities are:
Free WiFi
20% off if you are a student
Frequent customer card with a free drink after ten purchases.
I did take a to-​go menu with more info, but unfortunately I spilled my coffee all over myself in the car and used them both as napkins to wipe my stained white skirt! Double Grrr!

Delicious coffee and teas, plus great treats. A real emphasis on «healthy» living here, but the food and drinks taste great. You can stop in and get a great breakfast sandwich or one of their tasty muffins, or perhaps a wrap for lunch. They also have a varitety of alternative sweeteners (including stevia) for your drinks.
In addition to coffee and food, you can buy fitness gear, attend educational workshops, or join a running, walking or biking group. The owners are always super friendly and helpful, too.
