Redolencia Coffeeshop

Came to Ludington just for fun and came across this place. Absolutely loved it. The owner is a wonderful conversationalist and lovely barista. I am very picky about coffee since I work with it every day and this was wonderful. Hot chocolate was pretty bomb as well. Love the environment and the ambiance too!
¹⁰⁄₁₀ would recommend.

Dreams really do come true! We stopped in for a cup of hot cocoa and happily sipped the white chocolate peppermint and milk chocolate Lars on our road trip home.
The service was really friendly and if we lived closer, we’d be there more often to taste test and get to know the smiling employees.
Keep up the great work!

How can you run a business with inconsistent hours? Might have been good coffee but they really pissed us off with their inconsistent operation! Avoid!

The layout doesn’t optimize the space, at all — but this doesn’t affect the coffee, just my desire to drink my coffee there! The furniture is also mismatched and odd. They had almond milk which is a plus for me! The barista was also willing to customize my latte. Ludington doesn’t have many coffee options, but even if it did, this place is worth a visit!

Coffee was excellent and they make their own syrups. Atmosphere was really cool, lots of up scaled art and unique furniture.

Excellent coffee and hot chocolate. We ordered the vanilla latte and the Lars hot chocolate. The coffee was perfect… probably the best vanilla latte I’ve ever had.
Great interesting place and we loved the Simpsons chess pieces!

Spent a long weekend recently in Ludington and managed to find our way in a couple times for a morning brew. Being the only real game in town, they could probably pass off for less than what they do. Cozy and eclectic reigns inside, but starting the day off with a tray of their French press on an outdoor table is a fantastic way to begin the morning. Didn’t have a chance to try any of the edibles, but the coffee itself was a winner.

Best in Ludington. Only roaster in town.

Awesome eclectic atmosphere! Friendly service and good coffee. Worth checking out. :-)

Was up there second week of June, they were never open. Asked local people was told it should be open. Not sure what the problem was.

We make sure we visit this place every time we come to Ludington. I think their coffee is fantastic! The aroma of freshly roasted beans fill the room Of the authentically original décor. Great place!

Visited for a winter vacation and had loved this place in the summer, but arrived multiple times to a closed shop. Evidently the winter hours are reduced to just Sat/​Sun and only daytime, despite a lack of updates on here. My two stars are for this unconscionable logic — not the the coffee. The coffee is great if you feel like coffee in the summer only.
How they afford to only run two days and still pay the bills, and take an inherently cold-​weather product off the market is beyond me, and a shame, since the place was really great otherwise!

I love the atmosphere here and it’s the only place in town to get freshly roasted, freshly ground, and freshly brewed coffee. They make everything they can in house (syrups, chai, etc) so it lacks the preservatives and emulsifiers many chain store coffees contain. Sometimes there’s a bit of a wait but hey, you don’t go to a Mom and Pop burger joint and ask for a burger to be delivered and made at the speed and cost of McDonalds, quality takes time and the small wait (usually 3 – 10 min) for Redolencia Coffee is worth it!

I’ve been coming here since they opened in 2009. The coffee is unparalleled. Roasted right in the shop and brewed in a French press, with cream and sugar it transcends your typical cup of joe. My favorite thing is to get a full press to share with friends. The specialty drinks are great too! My favorite thing about Redolencia is the atmosphere. Comfortable and inviting; it makes you want to stay there and drink coffee all day. I recommend this coffee shop to absolutely everyone. A must visit Ludington destination!

They have changed coffee for me. And made it almost impossible to find anything even close as good.
They roast all their own beans in house and have a great staff.
French press only for coffee so there can be a bit of a wait at time. But you know what they say, good things come to those who wait.

Wonderfully strong yet tasteful coffee. Adorable interior, capturing the essence of an old country store within the coffee shop. They even sell locally made products! They had a table for chess, plenty of comfy-​looking chairs, and good music.
If I were a local, this would be my coffee shop. Great, great place!

Great little find in Luddington! Cute décor and really good coffee. Ordered a vanilla latte with extra foam and it was just the right amount of sweetness. Coffee was flavorful without being over roasted/​burnt and no sour after taste.
Also, 5 stars is relative to this area… It might not be the best coffee you will ever have; but it probably will be when your in Luddington.

I love this place! I have been a regular for a couple years now. The staff is great and professional and more than willing to help you find the best drink suited for you. The atmosphere is great, cozy, and welcoming.
Their coffee is fresh grinded and brewed everyday. A must if you come to ludington.

«Best coffee in town» is not a lot to brag about. Ludington must not be much of a coffee-​drinking town, they couldn’t keep a Starbucks, even. Redolencia is a huge place; their rent is super cheap or they must sell a LOT of coffee. Their coffee was great; I don’t think there are many places in Ludington that know what an Americano is. They do, and they do it well. The highlight for us was the ability to find an area to have a conversation. There are many comfortable chairs and sofas, and we were able to spend an hour in conversation enjoyably.

I keep seeing «best coffee in town,» which isn’t saying much. Not that I exactly scoured the streets of Ludington, but it was the first and only coffeehouse I saw the couple of times we hung out in the area. Supposedly they make a killer Mayan Hot Chocolate, but it was out of season. They did say they could make one for me, but this was after a rather in-​depth explanation that it’s time consuming to create. I appreciated the offer, but didn’t want to wait and didn’t want to make them work that hard.
I ordered the Chai Spice Tea (iced) with soy milk. What I received was a 20oz cup ¾ filled with ice. Oh, and some slightly cinnamon flavored liquid. This «drink» cost $ 5 and was incredibly bland and diluted. I’m leaning toward worst Chai Tea ever. I would say worst coffeeshop beverage ever, but that is a dishonor reserved for the Horchata. It pains me to even call that Horchata, because it honestly tasted like the fruity-​chemical milk that is left at the bottom of your bowl after a heaping helping of Trix cereal.
I also sipped a bit of my boyfriend’s Hazelnut Frappuccino, which was the least offensive of all. It actually wasn’t too bad, but it also wasn’t anything amazing. If I ever return, this is the only thing I would order.
The people who worked there were exceedingly friendly and professional. I enjoyed my brief brush with their bubbling personalities. I wish I felt as warm and fuzzy about our cold coffee drinks.
