Hearty meals, espresso and a general store within a short drive
When locals want to take a break from cooking, they take a seat at The Local Table, known for serving hearty American meals. The Classic Smash Burger is a consistent favorite among customers and is made with 12 ounces of beef, house pickles, caramelized onions, “shredduce” and bacon. On their way to work, many neighbors stop in MoGlo Espresso for a morning cup of coffee. This local spot serves seasonal lattes, handmade frappes and smoothies. Big R General Store sits in the same shopping center as MoGlo and The Local Table. This is the closest department store and is often where neighbors pick up agricultural equipment to maintain their land. Heading a mile north, locals can pull into Walmart Supercenter to run errands and pick up groceries at the same time. Safeway is 3 miles south. For more options, they can follow Highway 85 north into Colorado Springs.
