I must say that my experience has everything to do with the staff. It turns out I walked in 2 minutes before closing and didn't realize it. Sat down for almost 30 minutes before I left. They never said a word to me about them being closed. I'm so thankful to them because I was already in a tense situation and they didn't know. I will be back (during business hours of course).
Also my daughter and I each got drinks and they were delicious.

Moved to the area recently, looking for my new local go-to. The sandwiches here are customizable, and the quiches are tasty. I would only order hot drinks here, because when I ordered an iced coffee, I was handed a plastic up of ice and pointed at the hot drip coffee dispensers. No... that is not how you make iced coffee if you want good coffee.

I liked the train theme of this place, but it’s not overwhelming. They have a very extensive coffee menu with multiple kinds of drinks and flavors. Their brewed coffee was really good. I had a cinnamon roll (which was good) and they had 8-10 sandwich options for lunch. There is plentiful parking and they were easy to find on the corner of the strip mall. On a Sunday morning they started out fairly empty around 10:30 but filled to more than 50% within an hour. Clientele is a mix of young and old, groups and singles. Worth a visit!

Solid coffee shop, good fundamentals. They stock excellent drip coffee. Staff is always friendly. Kind of limited on seating options inside. Some seating outside. Community vibe every time I’ve been in.

Neat coffee shop! I was on a road trip from Omaha to Tulsa and searching for a coffee shop that wasn't Starbucks. Found the steam engine. Coffee was very tasty. I ordered an egg sandwich with sausage on an English muffin; this was also tasty, but they somehow forgot the egg?

I love this little place! Quiet inside and just big enough to still be cozy and comfy. The coffee is great & they can make just about anything. The place is family owned and I love supporting local businesses. Give this place a try, it's worth it!

Good coffee shop, great drinks. I really liked my London fog, made just right. Nice quite place with seating outside as well.

Excellent service and amazing coffee! We asked the barista her recommendations since it was our first time there and she replied. "Are you in the mood for something Iced or something hot." She took the time to find out what we may like rather than trying to sell us the most expensive thing on the menu. She made some great recommendations and we were very happy with our selection. I found the atmosphere to be very inviting. I would recommend this locally owned coffee shop to any coffee or tea lover.

Great coffee. Nice atmosphere. Slow service. I would go there again IF I had a lot of time on my hands. If you're in a hurry be prepared to wait. When I went in, they weren't busy, but they still took fifteen minutes to prepare my coffee (I didn't order any fancy, and there were only like five people in the whole shop).

I only recommend the coffee. Two sandwiches took 20 minutes. They were served luke warm and soggy. No music or anything playing, just really loud conversation among the 10 to 12 patrons inside. The cashier seemed disinterested in answering any questions and was unfriendly. I understand most people just go for the coffee, and that was the only really good thing about this place.
