Things I LOVE about this shop: • The drinks. Even if you don't like coffee, you can find something you like! Frozen drinks, smoothies, teas (hot or iced) and of course, coffee of all varieties. • The muffins! They are made fresh! Soft and moist on the inside, but a tiny bit of a crisp on the outside. So delicious. • The store has so many things to offer, from blankets, to soaps, to loose leaf teas, etc. • Such a welcoming little store, in general! We are always greeted with a friendly demeanor and the batistas are always more than willing to make a recommendation. • A cute sitting area to enjoy your coffee/muffin and people watch. • The bathroom is one of the cleanest bathrooms I've seen in a public place in a while. Not to mention, very cute! I prefer this shop to most coffee shops! It's very cute with lots to shop for while waiting for your drink to be made. Definitely a repeat store for me!

First time visit, and they did not disappoint. We were greeted upon entering, lots of hot/cold options. They offer speciality drinks at a special price. Staff were friendly and helpful. The store was clean, organized, with many unique barista themed gifts. Definitely worth a visit.

I truly cannot express how fantastic and genuinely phenomenal Serendipity & The Brew actually is. You have to come in and experience the food, service and atmosphere for yourself! Every single employee had a smile on their face and knows how to make some of the best coffee, with just the right amount of ice, that I’ve ever had! Beyond that, they have some of the BEST and MOST epic variety of coffee beans I’ve seen this side of the Mitten State. I’m pretty sure I counted 32!!

I know it’s cliche but it’s a one of a kind place. Food, pastries, gifts, kitchen accessories, and gourmet packaged food. Set in the Victorian style town of marshal this place stands out and is designed in a more modern style that gels with the traditional. The coffee was fantastic and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

I’m a regular at serendipity. And the staff has always been phenomenal, but recently I fell and broke my neck and because of that I can’t drive. So my husband goes and get’s me my drink (which they know by heart). And they staff is so great there that they write me notes on my coffee to chear me up. And don’t get me started about Abbey who manages the place. That woman is probably the nicest person I have ever met and has a smile that can light up a building. She knows her stuff and handles everything with perfection. It’s an all around lovely store. With beautiful thing’s to buy. So, bottom line is if you’re looking for the perfect gift and a place to get some coffee and a pastry or baked good’s THIS is the place!

As a former Biggby lover I can say that without a doubt Serendipity is the best coffee place in our little town. So so good. The ladies that work here are so kind and welcoming and are always happy to see my daughter Moxie. The coffee is always good and the same EVERY time. Consistency is so important when you find a drink you love and it’s made the same the next time you get it. Such a special place for us and it’s now a part of our daily walk downtown. I tell everyone about, my husband and I are obsessed!!

Serendipity and the Brew is one of my favorite coffee shops to visit whenever I am in Marshall. The staff is always so kind and helpful, the one time my drink was made slightly wrong they remade it right away and were very apologetic. Every drink I’ve had has been delicious (my favorite is the Storm Cloud Latte) and they have a unique selection of gifts, specialty foods and other cool items in the gift shop area. Don’t listen to anyone who says otherwise, they probably just find joy in complaining.
