Cannot begin to tell you how excited I was to see a new coffee shop open in our favorite little Southern Illinois town. And for it to maybe offer up a bowl of matzah ball soup or a nice kugle? Well this was shaping up to be a very special coffee chronicle.
Sadly there are no Jews in Jonesboro. Well there may be a few, but they don’t own the local coffee shop. The pun here comes from the owner’s love of “The Epistle to the Hebrews” which definitely does not include any references to blintzes.
Despite the initial disappointment, HeBrewz is the place to hang out with your best friend in-between a Red Box/COVID test run (poor Henna, she is feeling better though and tested negative). We loved the sheer size of the place along with the cool art and chairs so comfy we had trouble rising (couldn’t resist that one).
