Coming from a town that has little to no drive thru coffee shops… I found fascination in the multitude of drive thrus in this area so I made it my mission to experience as many as possible on my visit. To me coffee is coffee is coffee until I happened upon Ocean Grinds Coffee… just opened a couple months ago on the north end of Florence… perfect for the drive up the coast. This place is run by such a friendly/personable husband and wife team… you are practically friends by the time you drive away. If you’re a surfer you have found common ground for sure. They serve quality organic espresso and use top shelf syrups and ingredients… even their plastic cups are compostable. My stop at Ocean Grinds definitely raised the bar on my coffee experience!!! If you get to this area, definitely stop by and meet these friendly people and have a «Cup of Joe»!! I will make this my stop everytime I come to visit!!!
