Mo’s Coffee + Postum Break
A welcoming space is our priority, hence the coffee AND postum! We are a nation and community defined by our differences rather than what we have in common.
This is a space for listening and communicating. It’s the backyard and studio of the local artist Nathan Florence, who makes the basic espresso based drinks and does some of the baking. Nathan runs Mo’s with his daughter Maren Florence, who is a ballerina. Maren is a master of creative coffee drinks and other baked goods.
Please contact Nathan Florence on the home page for the address!
Sundays 1pm-5pm ish
FAQs
-
Mo is short for Moroni. He’s the angel at the top of the Mormon temples blowing his horn. There’s not any account in Mormon scripture or stories of him actually having a horn as far as we know, so…not sure what’s up with that, but ANYWAY, he could obviously use a break from his musical duties. So his horn is leaned up against the wall/sign while he has a cup of coffee…or postum…or whatever musical angels drink.

Well, here’s the thing… If you’re looking for a coffee shop to be online we can recommend plenty of good ones locally. We kind of think of Mo’s as Lo-fi or even No-fi. It’s really about hanging out and talking with other people. If you don’t know anyone yet, ask one of us and we’ll introduce you!

There aren’t any prices for drinks because they are all on the house! King’s Peak Coffee Roasters sponsors our bean supply because they love our philosophy and this builds on the community love. You may pitch in to tip the barista(s) which supports Maren’s ballet career and/or donate to the bakery fund for cookies/pastries/etc. which helps cover costs of other ingredients and is, of course, good karma.
Paintings and made-things in the studio are available for sale. Check with Nathan or Maren about these.

Postum is a sort of Mormon coffee substitute that was popular with Maren’s Papa Florence. We have a drink named after him, “The Giles”, that is Postum with a generous splash of sweetened condensed milk. If you are feeling adventurous, give it a try!
