Summer Moon Coffee – Grove 98

Summer Moon Coffee’s Grove 98 shop sits in the Grove 98 Shopping Plaza, where Highway 98 meets Ligon Mill Road, a few minutes from downtown Wake Forest. The chain began in Austin, Texas, and built its name on coffee roasted over oak wood, a method it brought east as it grew.

Moon Milk, a sweet signature of the chain, is the other half of its reputation. This shop is described as a cozy favorite for locals and students, and orders can be placed ahead so a drink is ready on arrival.
