McKay Cottage
While McKay Cottage is known for its dynamic brunch offerings, we love them even more for their coffee cocktails. Specifically, Nanaâs Irish Coffee. McKay Cottage uses local Thump coffee to make this breakfast cocktail, infusing it with Irish whiskey, Irish cream Liqueur, and Grand Maâs sauce. Whatâs better, you can order a steaming hot boozy coffee while you wait for your table.
J-Dub
Now that J-Dub serves breakfast every day, there are more opportunities to enjoy Irish Coffee from morning until night. J-Dub starts with local C4K Coffee, Tullamore Dew Irish whiskey, and Irish cream, and finishes with a dollop of whipped cream. Fuel up with their chicken fried chicken in the dining area, or cozy up with a hot Irish Coffee on their outdoor patio.
