What a great spot on the Main Street in Shullsburg. The coffee is delicious and the new chicken croissant sandwich was perfect. Looking forward to returning for live music. Update in November. Back again for great coffee and the BLT panini is exceptional. Local and fresh! Thank you as we need more good food in the area.

Second Chance has been my venue of choice for monthly get-togethers with friends for over a year now, and I never leave disappointed. Most recently, my husband and I decided to have an impromptu breakfast date that involved the BEST breakfast pizza, cinnamon rolls, and Lotus beverages! They were willing to help me recreate some Lotus drinks from a different coffee shop in my hometown that is 4 hours away, and they nailed it! No matter what, I know I will leave a happy customer! Between the food, atmosphere, and the owners/staff, the whole thing keeps me coming back time and time again.

Great coffee and baked goods. A group of friendly staff taking orders in this bright and cheerful place. We asked about the live music and decided to return in the evening for an outdoor concert by a great local musician. The owner was excited to offer music to the patrons and made it feel like a really friendly gathering place in this sweet little town. We loved it and would come back in a heartbeat to be a part of this nice community. Great place!

The acia bowl was delicious. Coffee was hot and great tasting. I wish they still made the cranberry scones, they were the best!

Do you want to have the best cinnamon rolls of your life? If you do, then stopping here is a must! We stopped in on a cold Wisconsin winter morning, and the hot coffee (I had a latte and my son the hot chocolate) hit the spot just right. The service is amazing and extremely friendly. They want to make sure you have the absolute best experience possible. If you're in Shullsburg, you have to stop at Second Chance!
