Scooter’s Coffee & Wilder
After a long day playing with the Muscatine Symphony (we love a dress rehearsal & concert on the same day…), both Martin and I were too exhausted this morning to make our usual breakfast & coffee. We decided to try out a new coffee spot on our way to check on a friend’s cats: Scooter’s Coffee. Drive thru coffee places always remind me of a chain called Dutch Bros. that we have back home in California. One of my favorite memories from high school was stopping for caramel apple frozen drinks on the way home from community band rehearsals with my friend Michael. My mom was convinced they were the most disgusting drink on the planet, but the laughs shared over them made up for their aggressive sweetness. Because of this, I will be honest and say that I came into Scooter’s with pretty low expectations. I was expecting something which sacrificed taste for speed & convenience. Low and behold was I surprised. Will this replace my specialty coffee favorites any time...
