Long gone are the days when coffee was just coffee and the only decision it involved was cream or sugar. But the drink isn’t the only thing that has changed. In the past, buying a cup of Joe from a gas station was the norm, but today, coffee shops are a much more common choice. And even though most of rural Mississippi isn’t filled with Starbucks and other national chains, the state has a ton of amazing locally-owned coffee shops; here are 13 of them.
Established in 2003, Fusion Coffeehouse opened with the intention of setting themselves apart from the numerous "corporate coffee" chains that have become so popular – and that they did. The coffee house serves only the freshest, locally roasted coffee, offers a great atmosphere complete with live musical entertainment, and, according to customer reviews, has some of the best cupcakes around.
