Coffee is hands down the most popular beverage in the world. It is hot, it is cozy, it is energizing. Taken straight black or with a myriad of accoutrements, a good cup of joe is like a warm blanket on a cold winter day.

We are lucky to have a big variety of coffee shops in McCall. Fogglifter Café in the heart of downtown is a great stop for a morning boost. Sip on drinks made from fresh roasted beans from Landgrove Coffee in Troy, Idaho and munch on light breakfast fare.

Just steps from Legacy Park and Payette Lake, Mountain Java serves up hot drinks in a boutique setting. Peruse artwork from local photographers, browse the selection of mugs, chocolates, gift cards and tea or sign up for the Mountain Vino Wine Club as you sip your java.

Sometimes you don’t want to get out of your car with the temperature drops outside. Wild River Java lets you stay warm and toasty while you order your cup of joe. Drive right up to the window and order your favorite. Wild River Java is now open in the same location, but with a brand new building!

If Starbucks is part of your morning routine, you can now get your fix in McCall. Tucked upstairs in the remodeled Albertsons store is a coffee-lovers paradise. Not only can you sip your favorite seasonal latte or Venti Cappuccino, you can do it in style in the new lounging areas. Inside are comfy seats and outside on the balcony there are heaters so you can take in the view of downtown McCall no matter the season.

If you want to enhance your morning ritual, pick up a bag of freshly roasted beans from North Fork Coffee Roasters. As a small-batch roaster, they source seasonally available beans and carefully craft each batch to bring out the fullest flavor. From light to dark, North Fork has a variety to please any palate!
