Coffee and Kurtz

The food truck scene in Charleston has grown by leaps and bounds. I’m a huge fan of these meals on wheels, whether they’re tucked away on a side street, or circled up in a rodeo. While we’ve got main courses and sweets galore, there’s not been much in the beverage line. We’ve got marvelous coffee places here in town, but not much in the way of a moveable coffee feast. But now, we have Coffee and Kurtz.
Alex, the man behind the wheel at Coffee and Kurtz, has taken his truck to the streets. I’ve found The Office of Coffee and Kurtz a couple of weeks at the Medway Park Sunday Brunch Farmer’s Market, and spotted the colorful truck at Tru-​Value on East Bay. (You can often find current locations by checking the truck’s CoffeeandKurtz Facebook page.)
I love the concept, really like the energy behind it all. LOVE the graphics and the logo. I’m a little particular about coffee, preferring single origin, direct trade coffee, so maybe am not as excited about the brew actually served, but that’s my own taste. I still like the cold-​brewed coffee C&K serve (particularly these hot summer days.) If you’re a fan of King Bean Coffee, or want some pastries from EVO, or other taste treats to go with your caffeine, this may be the ticket for you.
If I were rating on the delight value alone, I’d go with a 4 star. I know that someone with different tastes will challenge me on this, but I have to go with what I think, hence the 3 star, which is realy a 3.5. If it’s any comfort/​measure, I would give a lower star rating to several national chains specializing in coffee, some with mermaids in their logo, some with donuts in their name. The Office of Coffee and Kurtz is far better, and a helluva lot more fun
