Oh my gosh, just go! There isn’t a single thing I don’t like about Brady’s. The service was amazing. The donuts made me want to cry tears of joy. The coffee was some of the best I have ever had. It’s cute, it’s small, it’s local, you can drive through, you can walk up, you can buy bag of their coffee to take home, they have frozen hot chocolate. Truly, what more can want? You haven’t lived until you’ve been to Brady’s. (Not pictured-cinnamon sugar donut because we ate it too fast.)

Really delicious drinks, I ordered Brian's favorite (white mocha and caramel) for myself with whip cream and a strawberry smoothie for my big sister. The drive thru was very quick which I love! The menu was small but was right next to the window so it definitely helped me to order. The prices were listed next to the items. The descriptions were also listed beneath each drink. This place throughly help us customers with this menu. Thank you for my good service, I will definitely come again!

Best coffee around! The white caramel latte is so yummy. Coffee and lattes come in one size so it makes it easy to order. They serve gluten free donuts each day. The gentleman who works there is super knowledgeable and has a great attitude towards his customers.

We pulled off for some coffee during a road trip and when our original destination - the Starbucks right off the Interstate - had an hour-long wait, a local pointed us to Brady's. We're very glad they did. It was great coffee and great service and definitely worth the few extra minutes driving. There's a good chance Starbucks would be a longer wait, anyway. There's also a great little patio for outside seating if you want to take a little longer break.

Excellent service and drinks. Donuts not so much. Donuts to expensive for what you got but everything else was great.

Stopped at Bradys in the drive-through on our way to Floyd, Va and I ordered one hot and one iced Brian's Favorite Caramel White Mocha. Delicious! Not too sweet and beautifully blended. Wish I had ordered donuts after I heard how good they are. Service was with a smile and our dog was even given a treat. Will definitely be back.
