Today on #WellnessWednesday we’ll talk about the importance of coffee time. 💆🏻‍♂️💆🏼‍♀️ - Although coffee is seem as an energy booster, sometimes very often, all we need is a good cup of coffee to relax and take a moment for ourselves. ☕️ - @gojavacoffee happens to offer that experience right at the heart of Downtown. Located down Ionia street, next to Hopcat, this place is your perfect me time space in the center of the city. - Traditionally decorated and surrounded with the spirit of Cranky Unicorn (ask them about this), just sip your cup and enjoy the view from the inside - If you’re feeling wild, we will recommend trying their secret menu item: The Luis. A cold secret delicious drink. 🥤 - More importantly, it happens to offer various food items, freshly made - @gojavacoffee most recently open their second location on Bridge Street, if you don’t feel like dealing with parking by the heartside - Have you ever been to @gojavacoffee ?

Before we start, I need to make a personal confession… - This has been the best sandwich shop I have been to in my life. - Okay, thank you for letting me express my feelings. Here it is @twobeardsdeliofficial ! The sandwich shop with the best flavor, originality, and most number of sandwich options in the city. - With over 90 available selection of sandwich, @twobeardsdeliofficial is a SENSATION in Grand Rapids, specially around the Division area - Started after their sister deli, Cherry Street deli, and has been in business for over 6 years. The small staff is super friendly and welcoming! And despite their casual dine in looking vibe, don’t let that fool you as there is something hiding on every corner of this restaurant. 🧝🏼‍♂️ - If you happened to go, can’t miss the opportunity to try their sandwich number #43 named after Fred Sanford from the Sanford and Son TV show. How many of you remember this TV celebrity? ✨ - Have you ever been to @twobeardsdeliofficial ? Let us know down in the comments ⤵️ - Want a neighborhood or business to be expose?
