Pick Em’ Up Joe Coffee Co.

This little coffee shop is known for their fresh baked goodies and friendly staff. Their first location is just south of Grove City in Commercial Point. This is just close enough for Grove Citians to travel for a good cup o’ joe and cinnamon roll. Now that they are in the heart of Grove City, their lobby is full and Kolaches fly off of their shelves. If you are wondering who Joe is, he is the family basset hound (everyone needs to know who Joe is – that is the first FAQ on their website!)
