Black Lab Coffee Co. Galloway

springfield's specialty coffee scene has quietly grown into something worth paying attention to, with a handful of independents scattered across the ozarks city doing genuinely good work. black lab coffee co. on south lone pine avenue sits in that group, and if you ask the people who go there regularly, it sits near the top of it. galloway is a neighborhood that rewards a little patience to find, and this place fits that rhythm. no one's making grand claims here, which is probably why the regulars keep coming back without much ceremony. the confidence in what they're doing comes through in the consistency, not in the branding. if you're in the south springfield area on a weekday morning, lone pine avenue is a reasonable place to start the day.
