Flatlands Coffee

Flatlands Coffee is in downtown Bowling Green, owned by Ben Vollmar. Food & Wine named it Ohio's best coffee shop. It's modern and warm, with wood, small tables, bigger tables in back, couches, high-tops, fast wifi and outdoor seating in summer.

It started as a multi-roaster shop, and now they roast their own Nordic-style coffee. The lavender latte is a favorite, and the pour-overs and even the drip have chocolate and blueberry notes. The lemon blueberry scones are popular. Beans are sold online, with subscriptions.
