We stopped for the amazing shakes and weren't disappointed! I suggest you eat light if you plan on conquering one of these scrumptious masterpieces! Laden with decadence, there are options that are sure to please every dessert lover! A welcoming atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff, and an impressive menu. Did I mention they have a happy hour? I highly recommend stopping here!

My absolute favorite place to go!! I come in at least once a week but definitely have those weeks where it’s a daily ritual to stop in and get a boba tea. This place has THE best desserts...especially their brownies and cake pops. Don’t get me started on the blueberry cheesecake boba drink...it’s to die for. The chicken salad on a croissant is my favorite lunch order. Also the ladies that work here are absolute dolls. The punch cards are super awesome, once you get enough punches you get a free drink! It’s not hard to get a full punchcard because once you try the Firehouse you’ll be hooked.

What a great little find in Elkhart. We were at Elkhart Automotive (also amazing) getting my truck fixed and decided to stop buy and get a little treat. I swear this place is straight out of any fantasy movie where you open a small door and end up in a big room, only for menu. A bigger ice cream selection than anyone else around, sandwiches, wraps, salads, cold foods, hot foods, coffees, teas, floats… I could keep going but at some point you gotta just go there yourself. Will I be back? Already have been.
