Coffee worth
slowing down for.
Gourmet espresso, local honey, fresh pastries and a room built on original wood floors. Pull up a stool — the Wi‑Fi's on and Lori's probably behind the bar.

The shop
A laid-back corner of Bardstown Road.
The Local Press is a small, independent coffee shop in Mount Washington, Kentucky. We press espresso, stir in local honey, bake pastries in the morning and blend smoothies for the folks who don't drink coffee. Orders get customized happily — that's the whole point of being local.
Regulars come for the drinks and stay for the room: warm light, original wood floors, a table you can actually work at. Most people spend about fifteen minutes. Plenty stay longer.
