Safai Coffee Shop, Louisville, KY

On my recent sojourn in Louisville with several writer friends, we checked out Safai Coffee Shop (named for owners Mike and Medora Safai). It is more than a coffee shop; there is also a Safai Foundation and a distributor of wholesale seed-to-cup coffee.

Safai offered a warm and inviting space for conversation, coffee, and various edibles (scones and crepes among them).

I had a cup of pour-over coffee (very smooth) with a crepe. I forget what the crepe was called but it had apples, walnuts, and a pretty helping of whipped cream. It was perfectly prepared and appreciatively consumed.

Safai is located at 1707 Bardstown Road in Louisville, Kentucky.
