A good cup of coffee is simple. So is a good coffeehouse.
The setup: I found myself in Siloam Springs on deadline. A local earlier that day suggested that Pour Jons is "the best coffee in NWA."
- I'm skeptical of the "best" of anything, but she was clearly a hardcore advocate.
The vibe: In a warehouse-esque space downtown, Pour Jons was full of customers by early afternoon, but didn't feel crowded.
- College students were doing what college students do, locals were chatting about babies and the tunes were classic rock without being offensively loud.
The drink: I ordered a pour-over, made with a Guatemalan blend ($5).
- It was steaming hot, rich, full-bodied and satisfying.
- This was, without a doubt, one of the best pour-overs I've had anywhere in NWA.
Pour Jons roasts its own beans on site, so the barista has the recipe dialed in.
The food: I'd already eaten, but my local friend says the house bagels are also top shelf. I can't wait to try 'em.
Check it out: Monday - Friday 7am-6pm; Saturday 8am-6pm; Sunday 8am-5pm at 516-2 E. Main Street in Siloam Springs.
