Kingbird Coffee

if you've got a slow saturday morning ahead and nowhere particular to be, brandon's splitrock boulevard corridor is a reasonable place to let the hours go. kingbird coffee sits at 509 n splitrock blvd, which puts it squarely in the kind of south dakota suburb that doesn't usually get this kind of attention from specialty coffee. but it does here, and locals have noticed. you're not walking into anything experimental or precious, just a shop that takes the coffee seriously enough that the gap between this and your usual drive-through stop becomes hard to ignore. the local reputation has built steadily, and that kind of standing in a smaller market usually means people are coming back. end the morning with whatever's pulling shots that day.
