New favorite spot. Lots of fun nights (open mic, karaoke, etc). Good music, and cozy atmosphere. Colin makes the best Old Fashioned in town!

As fpr food, I only had a pastry, but it was homemade and outstanding. My barista,, for you coffee snuds was great, friendly, and made a very good Latte. The place has an old library/living room feel. Comfortable and inviting. Was an outside sitting area/patio as well (I did not go outside). Got a tour of the upstairs area where bands and artist play. An old theater setting. They do theater there as well. Well worth the time to stop, enjoy some Java, and unwind.

Wonderful local coffeeshop / playhouse / music performance space in downtown Paw Paw. Cozy, rambling space with a dozen or so tables and a bunch of couches downstairs. Somewhat random set of wine, beer, spices, and sundries on sale. Small lunchy menu and good selection of teas. Free wi-fi with posted password. Filled with Paw Paw and music memorabilia. There's also an upstairs space that was not open when I was there, on a rainy late March Sunday morning. Main downsides were that pastries hadn't shown up yet for the day, and that a local alt rock band showed up to play at 11am. They weren't bad, but I was trying to work. But before then I had a couple of very good chai lattes made with loose leaf chai, got a grilled cheese and a green tea to go, and really enjoyed the space.

Cool coffee spot in the town of Paw Paw MI. As with many of my travel adventures, I was passing through and needed an afternoon coffee. This local joint did the trick. Great coffee. Cool vibe. I noticed they have a small stage for music. Check it out, you will like it.

This is a lovely little cafe that is an easy stop off of 94. We received a warm welcome when we stopped in. I greatly enjoyed my Black Salt Mocha and the other coffee flavors were unique and looked delicious as well. This cute shop was baby and toddler friendly with toys, changing tables, and a good atmosphere.

Our school just held the daddy-daughter dance at this location this past weekend and it was awesome. Great place to hold an event. The girls had a great time dancing on the stage and dads were able to hang out and grab an adult beverage when not dancing. Great location and thanks for great time!

We had my daughter’s birthday party at Lucky Wolf, and it was absolutely amazing! She had the best time — and so did all 30 kids who came! It was a glow party, and everything was so well done. The supplies were all provided — glow paint, lights, music — the whole vibe was perfect. I made my own playlist, and their DJ ran it seamlessly throughout the party. The kids had plenty of space to run, dance, and just be kids. Everyone had an absolute blast! Highly recommend Lucky Wolf for a fun, unique, and stress-free party experience.
